ON-VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE, ON-VEHICLE SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD AND PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18574629 titled 'ON-VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE, ON-VEHICLE SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD AND PROGRAM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an in-vehicle control device that manages communication between different devices in a vehicle via a network. The device generates setting information for the network based on the vehicle's state, calculates the time needed to change network settings in each device, and coordinates setting changes to overlap in time.
- The control unit in the in-vehicle device manages communication between different devices in a vehicle.
- Setting information for the in-vehicle network is generated based on the vehicle's state.
- Time required to change network settings in each device is calculated.
- Setting changes are coordinated to overlap in time for efficient management.
Potential Applications
The technology could be applied in various industries such as automotive, transportation, and smart cities for efficient communication and network management within vehicles.
Problems Solved
1. Efficient management of communication between in-vehicle devices. 2. Coordination of network setting changes to optimize time and resources.
Benefits
1. Improved communication efficiency within vehicles. 2. Time and resource optimization for network management. 3. Enhanced overall performance of in-vehicle devices.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimized communication and network management technology for automotive manufacturers, transportation companies, and smart city infrastructure developers.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be systems that manage communication between devices in a network, but the specific coordination of setting changes to overlap in time for efficiency may be a novel aspect of this technology.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology impact vehicle safety?
This article does not address the potential impact of this technology on vehicle safety. Implementing setting changes in in-vehicle devices could potentially affect the overall safety of the vehicle, and further research or testing may be needed to evaluate this aspect.
What are the potential cybersecurity risks associated with this technology?
The article does not discuss the cybersecurity implications of coordinating setting changes in in-vehicle devices. As network management becomes more sophisticated, there may be increased vulnerability to cyber threats, and it would be important to consider and address these risks in the implementation of this technology.
Original Abstract Submitted
An in-vehicle control device is installed in a vehicle and comprises a control unit performing control related to communication between a first in-vehicle device and a second in-vehicle device via an in-vehicle network. The control unit generates setting information of the in-vehicle network according to a state of the vehicle, derives a required time period required to change a network setting according to the setting information in the first in-vehicle device, derives a required time period required to change a network setting according to the setting information in the second in-vehicle device, and performs a setting change instruction on at least one of the network setting in the first in-vehicle device and the network setting in the second in-vehicle device so that the derived two required time periods at least partially overlap with each other.
