摘要: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for determining a scaled flow rate of traffic for a road segment. For example, probe flow rate information is determined based upon locational information from one or more probe vehicles on a road segment (e.g., a flow rate of probe vehicles corresponding to a sum of probe vehicles identified from time stamped global positioning system coordinates provided by the probe vehicles). Satellite imagery of the road segment is analyzed to identify a count of vehicles on the road segment. Scale factor and offset information is estimated based upon the probe flow rate information and the count of vehicles. The scale factor and offset information is used to scale the probe flow rate information to determine a scaled flow rate that may be a relatively accurate flow rate of traffic, which may correspond to an inferred traffic volume along the road segment.

摘要: Techniques and systems are disclosed for addressing the challenges in interference and mobility management in broadband, UAV-assisted heterogeneous network (BAHN) scenarios. Implementations include BAHN control components, for example, at a controlling network node of a BAHN. Generally, a component implementing techniques for managing interference and handover in a BAHN gathers state data from network nodes or devices in the BAHN, determines a candidate BAHN model that optimizes interference and handover metrics, and determines and performs model adjustments to the network parameters, BS parameters, and UAV-assisted base station (UABS) device locations and velocities to conform to the optimized candidate BAHN model. Also described is a UABS apparatus having a UAV, communications interface for communicating with a HetNet in accordance with wireless air interface standards, and a computing device suitable for implementing BAHN control or reinforcement learning components.

摘要: Systems and methods for detecting an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Network access (for example, to the Internet) may be provided by detecting a UAV and fixing one or more beams from one or more ground terminals to the UAV. In one embodiment, the detection of a UAV includes forming and pointing beams from a ground terminal and ground gateways toward the UAV. The ground terminal may be configured to autonomously steer its antenna beam during initial installation to detect the reference signal from a UAV. In one variant, the ground terminals are steered to more finely track the position of the UAV based on a signal quality metric such as received signal strength and the UAV real-time position location coordinates. In one embodiment, the ground terminal antenna is initially manually pointed toward the UAV, and thereafter allowed to automatically steer to track the position of the UAV. In another embodiment the UAV antenna is steered toward a ground terminal using signal quality received from the ground terminal and real-time position coordinates and orientation of the UAV.

摘要: Systems and methods for mitigating the effects of atmospheric conditions such as rain, fog, cloud in a broadband access system using drone/UAVs. In one embodiment, terminal and drone radio and transmission medium fixture sub-systems comprise multiple transmission media. In one embodiment, in response to changes in atmospheric conditions the drone radio sub-system switches transmission medium to reduce the effects of atmospheric conditions. In another embodiment, the terminal and drone radio sub-systems equalize the data rates among terminals in response to changes in atmospheric conditions observed by different terminals. In another embodiment, the drone radio sub-system adjusts the transmit power on the downlink to different terminal according to fading due to atmospheric conditions on each link.

摘要: A method of emergency handling is provided for a vehicle engaged with an uninhabited aerial vehicle (UAV). The method can include collecting location information if emergency situation occurs. In emergency situations, the vehicle can determine whether an operation of uninhabited aerial vehicle (UAV) is allowed based on the location information and time information. After determining whether there is a flight space for the operation of uninhabited aerial vehicle (UAV) above a vehicle, the vehicle can transmit at least one of SOS and an emergency call into the uninhabited aerial vehicle (UAV).

摘要: A flying machine or other vehicle includes at least two antenna units and a central control unit. In a first mode of operation, the two antenna units send and/or receive signals independent of each other in different, non-overlapping frequency bands. The central control unit is adapted to control the two antenna units in a second mode of operation such that the two antennas transmit and/or receive a common signal in a common frequency band using a Multiple Input Multiple Output transmission technique.

摘要: Various types of vehicle navigation may facilitate a driver of a vehicle, including lane suggestions (e.g., a message indicating that the current route of the vehicle involves an exit from the rightmost lane of a causeway). A device may be configured to formulate lane change suggestions by detecting a current lane of the driver; comparing the travel conditions of the current lane with the travel conditions of other lanes of the causeway; and presenting a lane change suggestion of another lane presenting advantageous travel conditions as compared with the current lane. The inclusion of the current lane in the selection and formulation of lane change suggestions may improve the relevance of the suggestions (e.g., presenting lane change suggestions only if the travel condition of another lane is advantageous over the current lane, and presenting lane change suggestions relative to the current lane, e.g., “move two lanes to the left”).
