Unanswered Questions
How does the system handle potential security vulnerabilities in the OTA server communication?
The patent application does not provide details on the specific security measures implemented to protect the communication between the vehicle communication control device and the OTA server. Additional information on encryption protocols or authentication methods would be helpful in understanding the security of the system.
What is the impact of the OTA state test on the overall performance of the virtual sound system?
The patent application mentions an OTA state test conducted when the virtual sound does not match a predetermined specific sound. It would be beneficial to know how this test affects the overall performance of the virtual sound system, including any potential delays in sound playback or processing.
Original Abstract Submitted
In a sound system that uses over-the-air (OTA), a blockchain platform server is configured to support performance of a virtual sound transaction in a virtual environment. An OTA server is configured to manage a virtual sound transmitted from the blockchain platform server. A vehicle communication control device is configured to perform wireless communication with the OTA server. The vehicle communication control device is configured to download the virtual sound from the OTA server, determine whether the virtual sound is similar to a predetermined specific sound, perform an OTA state test of the virtual sound when the virtual sound is not similar to the predetermined specific sound, and control a sound processing device to play the virtual sound when the virtual sound passes the OTA state test.
