摘要： Apparatus and method for determining when a vehicle (108) has arrived or departed from a planned or an unplanned stop, while minimizing or completely eliminating driver intervention. The apparatus comprises a mobile communication terminal (202) located onboard a vehicle (108) for receiving destination information, generally using wireless means, from a central facility or hub (104). A speedometer (210) also located onboard the vehicle (108) determines the speed of the vehicle and a position sensor (212) onboard the vehicle (108) determines the vehicle position. The vehicle speed and position are provided to a processor (206), also located onboard the vehicle (108), which uses the speed and position information to determine a vehicle arrival or departure from a planned or unplanned stop. The processor (206) generates an indication of the event, either arrival or departure, directly to the central facility (104), to the vehicle operator, or both.

摘要： A system for communication between a fleet of vehicles (12, 14) and a central base station (22), where each of the vehicles includes one or more vehicle subsystems (31A, 31B) connected to a vehicle data link (32), is disclosed herein. Within each vehicle (12), message packets generated by vehicle subsystems (31A, 31B) are placed upon the vehicle data link (32). Each message packet includes header information identifying a given vehicle and subsystem thereof. The message packets are transmitted from the fleet of vehicles (12, 14) to the central base station (22), and routed within the central base station (22) based on the header information. Control information and the like may also be transmitted by the central base station (22) for receipt by various vehicle subsystems (31A, 31B) within selected ones of the fleet vehicles (12, 14). Each message packet generated by the central base station (22) includes header information identifying at least a particular fleet vehicle (12) and vehicle subsystem (31A). This allows each message packet to be retrieved by the specified vehicle subsystem (31A) by way of the vehicle data link (32).
