    摘要: A wireless communication method has computer-implemented steps including identifying a location of a dead spot region within an expected route of a vehicle. The vehicle has a loss of wireless connectivity within the dead spot region. Lengths of time before the vehicle will arrive at the dead spot region and before the vehicle will exit the dead spot region are estimated. Audio content and/or video content are accessed from at least one source inside the vehicle and/or at least one source outside the vehicle such that playing of the content is uninterrupted while the vehicle is within the dead spot region, the accessing being dependent upon the estimated lengths of time.

    摘要: A wireless network arrangement includes a space having a hindrance to wireless communication. The hindrance includes a fixed barrier and/or a three-dimensional area for accommodating a moveable barrier. At least three wireless electronic nodes are wirelessly and communicatively coupled to each other. A broadcast range of the nodes is greater than a largest dimension of the enclosure. The hindrance is disposed between a first one of the nodes and a second one of the nodes. The at least three nodes are positioned within the enclosure such that a wireless signal communication path wirelessly and communicatively couples the first one of the nodes to the second one of the nodes. The communication path is non-intersecting with the hindrance. The communication path passes through at least a third one of the nodes. The communication path is formed exclusively of a plurality of joined linear segments. Opposite ends of each linear segment are disposed at corresponding ones of the nodes.

    摘要: If the number of rows in a matrix of wireless devices is greater than the number of columns, then vertical sweeping is performed including passing data along each of the columns of wireless devices to an end wireless device in each column. If the number of rows is less than the number of columns, then horizontal sweeping is performed including passing data along each of the rows of wireless devices to an end wireless device in each row. If the number of rows is equal to the number of columns, then diagonal sweeping is performed including passing data diagonally across each of the rows and columns of wireless devices to an end wireless device in each row and each column. The data is passed along the end wireless devices to a final destination data collector.

    摘要: A method of wireless communication includes providing a matrix of trackers. The matrix includes rows and columns of trackers. A number of rows and a number of columns in the matrix is determined. If the number of rows is substantially greater than the number of columns, then vertical sweeping is performed including passing data along each of the columns of trackers to an end tracker in each column. If the number of rows is substantially less than the number of columns, then horizontal sweeping is performed including passing data along each of the rows of trackers to an end tracker in each row. If the number of rows is substantially equal to the number of columns, then diagonal sweeping is performed including passing data diagonally across each of the rows and columns of trackers to an end tracker in each row and each column. The data is passed along the end trackers to a final destination data collector.

    摘要: A wireless communication method includes providing a plurality of vehicles, and sensing a plurality of dead spot regions encountered by the vehicles while traveling. The sensing is performed within the vehicles. Locations of the sensed dead spot regions are recorded within the vehicles. The dead spot region locations sensed by the vehicles are transmitted from the vehicles to a central controller. The dead spot region locations transmitted by the vehicles are sent back to the vehicles such that each vehicle has access to ones of the dead spot region locations sensed by other ones of the vehicles. The dead spot regions are mitigated, within the vehicles, by use of the sent dead spot region locations.

    摘要: A communication method for a wireless communication network in a vehicle is disclosed where the network includes a plurality of sensor nodes and a receiving node. The method includes wirelessly transmitting first sensor data from a first sensor node and second sensor data from a second sensor node using first and second frequency channels, and receiving the first and second sensor data at the receiving node. The method can include rearranging the order of transmitting sensor data, and aggregating sensor data at the sensor nodes. The method can include testing the quality of the wireless links; and using the links with the best quality whether indirect or direct links. The receiving node can simultaneously receive data from more than one node using different frequencies. The nodes can transmit data in parallel using different frequencies. The network can include helper nodes. The wireless communication network can be designed as a tree.

    摘要: A wireless communication method includes identifying a location of a dead spot region within an expected route of a vehicle. It is estimated whether the vehicle will arrive at the dead spot region before a wireless application is completed. It is determined whether an expected time period that the vehicle will be disposed within the dead spot region is greater than a maximum allowable disconnection time. A dead spot mitigation technique is initiated dependent upon the estimating and determining steps.
