Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for wirelessly communicating signals from trailer-mounted cameras to a towing vehicle, where the techniques overcome packet loss challenges caused by interferences, fading and poor signal strength. An advanced spectrum hopping algorithm monitors conditions on multiple channels in multiple frequency bands, detects congestion or collisions needing mitigation, and migrates transmissions as needed to other channels with greater free capacity. Network coding techniques are provided which transmit data packets via multiple paths, where the redundancy provides robustness against data packet losses. The multiple path network coding approach may include spectral diversity, where packets are transmitted on different bands, and spatial diversity, where packets are transmitted via different routes such as direct and repeater-based.

Abstract: A method for acquiring road data onboard a vehicle, the road data associated with a segment of road is provided. The method obtains, via vehicle onboard sensors, sensor data associated with current weather conditions, current road conditions, and a physical road state; determines whether the current weather conditions indicate existence of severe weather, whether the current road conditions indicate potential slip, and whether the physical road state indicates one or more road anomalies; generates a road data result, based on existence of severe weather, potential slip, and one or more road anomalies; and transmits the road data result, via a vehicle onboard telematics unit.

Abstract: Techniques and methodologies for determining a relative position between a host object and a neighboring object in proximity to the host object are presented here. An exemplary embodiment of a method operates a first wireless communication module onboard the host object to wirelessly communicate packets with a second wireless communication module onboard the neighboring object. The method processes packets wirelessly received from the second wireless communication module to obtain position information related to a position of the neighboring object relative to the host object. A range sensor system onboard the host object is operated to obtain first range information related to a range of the neighboring object relative to the host object. The relative position between the host object and the neighboring object is computed using the obtained position information and the obtained first range information.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for participative sensing of events and conditions by road vehicles, collection of this data from a large number of road vehicles by a central server, processing the data to identify events and conditions which may be of interest to other vehicles in a particular location, and sending notifications of the events and conditions to vehicles. A large number of vehicles use participative sensing systems to identify a safety-related event or condition which should be reported to the central server—such as a large pothole, an obstacle in the roadway, an icy road surface, a traffic accident, etc. The central server stores and aggregates the data, filters it and ages it. Vehicles requesting advisories from the central server will receive notices of safety-related events and conditions based on their location and heading. Driver warnings can be issued, and vehicle systems may respond to the notices.

Abstract: A method of determining ride share compatibility. Vehicle data acquisition devices are employed to collect user attribute information relating to a travel route and locations traveled by the operator. The attribute information includes regularity data, frequency data, and duration data. A regression analysis is applied by a processor for using the regularity data, the frequency data, and the duration data, for identifying an importance probability of each of the locations visited by the operator. A match is determined between the operator and a potential travel partner traveling to locations in proximity to the locations traveled by the operator.

Abstract: A system and method for providing navigation routing options to a vehicle driver, including estimated fuel consumption and fuel cost. A server collects data from a large number of road vehicles driving different routes, where the data includes road grade, average speed, stop/start and acceleration/deceleration info and vehicle specifications, and the data is collected via a telematics or other wireless system. The server also receives map data, point of interest data and real-time traffic data from their respective providers. When a driver of a road vehicle requests navigation routing from a start point to a destination, the server provides multiple routing options including not only distance and time for each routing option, but also fuel consumption and cost. The estimated fuel consumption is computed using models based on the crowd-sensed data from the other vehicles driving the routes, where the models include a physics-based model and a machine learning model.
