SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE COMMUNICATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18673011 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE COMMUNICATION
The subject matter described herein presents various technical solutions for the technical problems facing autonomous vehicles (e.g., fully autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicles). To address technical problems facing wireless communication cost and latency, a heterogeneous roadside infrastructure can be used to improve the ability for a vehicle to communicate with a data source. To address technical problems facing interruption of vehicle services due to an abrupt loss of connection, a quality of service system provides the ability to determine and share quality of service information, such as location-based information, maps, interference data, and other quality of service information. To address technical problems facing high volume data upload and download between autonomous vehicles and cloud-based data services, optical wireless communication (OWC) provides increased data throughput and reduced complexity and may be beneficial for short-range high-mobility wireless communications.
