INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18547884 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD
The patent application describes an information processing device that facilitates data communication with other vehicles in the vicinity of a host vehicle.
- The communication unit of the device interacts with neighboring vehicles, while the controller manages and regulates this communication.
- The controller identifies specific vehicles with which the quality of communication does not meet the required standard, designating them as "moving bodies."
- By analyzing the relative position and reception power of radio waves from these designated moving bodies, the controller adjusts the directivity of wireless communication accordingly.
Potential Applications: - Autonomous vehicles - Traffic management systems - Vehicle-to-vehicle communication networks
Problems Solved: - Enhancing communication quality between vehicles - Improving safety and efficiency on the road
Benefits: - Increased reliability of vehicle communication - Enhanced situational awareness for drivers - Potential for reduced accidents and traffic congestion
Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Vehicle Communication System for Safer Roads" This technology could be utilized by automotive manufacturers, transportation companies, and smart city initiatives to enhance road safety and traffic flow.
Prior Art: Research into vehicle-to-vehicle communication systems, wireless networking protocols, and intelligent transportation systems may provide insights into similar technologies.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay informed about advancements in vehicle communication technologies, wireless networking standards, and smart city infrastructure developments.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this innovation contribute to the development of autonomous driving systems? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology on a large scale?
Original Abstract Submitted
An information processing device includes a communication unit and a controller. The communication unit performs data communication with another vehicle present in a periphery of a host vehicle. The controller controls the data communication performed by the communication unit. The controller specifies each second other vehicle for which a quality of communication with the host vehicle does not satisfy a prescribed standard as a designated moving body. The controller identifies a relative position relative to the host vehicle, and a reception power of radio waves received from the designated moving body, for each designated moving body. The controller controls directivity related to wireless communication performed by the communication unit based on the relative position and reception power for each other vehicle.
