    Abstract: A ledger management system includes multiple ledger management devices communicably connected to each other. The ledger management devices have a same distributed ledger. Each ledger management device includes the distributed ledger, an agreement determination unit, and a ledger storage unit. The distributed ledger stores ledger information, including specific information specific to a previous ledger information and present vehicle information obtained from a vehicle, that is generated by one of the ledger management devices. The agreement determination unit determines whether the ledger information generated by the one of the ledger management devices satisfies an agreement rule. The ledger storage unit stores the ledger information in the distributed ledger when the ledger information satisfies the agreement rule, and does not store the ledger information in the distributed ledger when the ledger information does not satisfy the agreement rule.

    Abstract: A wireless positioning terminal includes a wireless receiver receiving reception signals from a wireless transmitter via multiple communication links. A multi-link-base reception informational item is determined by evaluating reception signals via the communication links. The multi-link-base reception informational item, which has a value varying with a position of the wireless positioning terminal, varies with the position differently from an informational item of a reception signal via one of the communication links. A base trajectory is stored which represents correspondence relation about points between (i) a position of the wireless positioning terminal and (ii) the multi-link-base reception informational item. A measured trajectory is generated which represents correspondence relation about points between (i) a calculated position variation and (ii) the multi-link-base reception informational item. A current position of the wireless positioning terminal is estimated based on a matching between the base trajectory and the measured trajectory.

    Abstract: In a wireless positioning apparatus mounted in a moving body, feature point position information is stored in a reference trajectory storage, a reception state of transmitted waves from a wireless transmitter is detected, and a movement distance of the moving body is measured. A positioning trajectory is generated that indicates a correspondence relationship between the movement distance and the reception state of transmitted waves. A coincidence distribution is generated that indicates a correspondence between: a point on the reference trajectory to which a representative position, set arbitrarily within the positioning trajectory, corresponds for each coordinate shift value; and the degree of coincidence between the reference trajectory and the positioning trajectory. Based on the coincidence distribution, positioning information is generated. Reliability is determined based on an evaluation value reflecting a flatness of the coincidence distribution. The reliability serves as a determination criterion for determining whether or not the positioning information is used.

    Abstract: A radio wave map provision device includes a radio wave map storage that stores a radio wave map. The radio wave map includes reference position information indicating a reference position, a communication speed with each external communication device at the reference position, and a connection probability indicating a probability of performing wireless communication with each external communication device at the reference position. The radio wave map provision device: receives the radio wave map request including request position information indicating a request position; obtains a lowest guaranteed speed and an estimated speed, at the reference position, based on the communication speed and the connection probability; and transmits a radio wave map reply including the connection probability, the lowest guaranteed speed, and the estimated speed, at the reference position corresponding to the request position information.

    Abstract: A communication device controls a first communication flow performed by a first terminal and a second communication flow performed by a second terminal. Both of the first communication flow and the second communication flow pass through a sharing section, and the second communication flow has a higher priority than a priority of the first communication flow. The communication device acquires a communication delay in the sharing section; acquires a rated delay of the second communication flow, the rated delay is a communication delay allowed to the second communication flow; and limits input of data from the first communication flow and the second communication flow to the sharing section based on a comparison result between the communication delay of the sharing section and the rated delay.

    Abstract: A redundant communication apparatus includes a determining unit and a transmitting unit. The determining unit determines an upper limit of a redundancy level when transmission waiting data in a transmission apparatus is made redundant and transmitted, based on a data quantity of the transmission waiting data and a communication speed of a communication line between a reception apparatus that is a transmission destination of the transmission waiting data and the transmission apparatus. The transmitting unit causes the transmission waiting data to be made redundant at a redundancy level that is equal to or less than the upper limit determined by the determining unit and transmits the data to the reception apparatus via the communication line.

    Abstract: In a bandwidth estimation device, a measurement unit measures a measurement time from reception by a receiver of a first packet of a packet train including a plurality of packets that are sequentially transmitted from a transmitter via a communication line to reception by the receiver of a last packet of the packet train, An estimation validity determination unit compares the measurement time with a threshold time predefined based on performance of the receiver or characteristics of the communication line to determine whether a valid estimate of an available bandwidth of the communication line can be made. In response to the estimation validity determination unit determining that a valid estimate of the available bandwidth can be made, an estimation unit estimates the available bandwidth of the communication line based on an amount of data in the packet train and the measurement time.

    Abstract: In a wireless communication system, a mobile communication apparatus judges the reception quality available at its current position for direct reception of information transmitted from a fixed wireless station, with the judgement based upon the current position and upon a reception quality map expressing a relationship between reception positions and corresponding reception quality values. If the reception quality at the current position is judged to be sufficient, direct reception is executed, while otherwise, a limitation is placed upon such direct reception, for example by postponing the direct reception until reaching a position at which the reception quality will be sufficient.
