    摘要: A vehicle, hitch, and articulating trailer include vehicle to vehicle and infrastructure communications and vehicle computing systems, which have a controller coupled to and/or including one or more of a dynamics measurement unit, a transceiver, and a position sensor, among other components. The controller(s) are configured to, in response to detecting positions of trailer corners from the position sensor, generate vehicle and trailer relative orientation and navigation data including location, velocity, and orientation, utilizing vehicle and trailer electronic polyhedrons articulating about a hitch point and representing the combination vehicle and trailer predicted path and envelopes. In response to detected trailer movement relative to the hitch point, the generated articulated polyhedrons are generated with the navigation data, which includes the location, speed, and orientation, which are in turn communicated to nearby vehicles and roadway infrastructure. Initial trailer vertices may be generated with wireless and mobile devices to generate the trailer polyhedron.

    摘要: A system includes a processor configured to detect user proximity to a rental vehicle. The processor is also configured to instruct a user to photograph an identified portion of a vehicle. The processor is further configured to receive an image captured using a mobile device, including the processor, responsive to the instruction. Also, the processor is configured to determine if a predefined threshold correspondence between the captured image and a predefined image is met and transmit confirmation to the vehicle, responsive to the predefined threshold correspondence.

    摘要: Scheduling communications using a plurality of wireless interfaces is provided. Signals are monitored that are received from a first antenna configured to send and/or receive first messages over a first message protocol. Using the signals, time slot information is updated that is indicative of which equally-sized consecutive future time slots the first antenna is predicted to transmit and/or receive the first messages. A transmission is scheduled of a second message over a second antenna configured to send and/or receive second messages over a second message protocol using the time slot information to avoid out-of-band emission (OOBE) interference.

    摘要: In an opportunistic packet retransmission strategy, responsive to determining that a retransmission mode is set, a retransmission probability is calculated using minimum and maximum channel busy level retransmission thresholds, such that if a channel busy level of a communication channel is less than a minimum channel busy level retransmission threshold then a retransmission probability is set to 100%, if the channel busy level is greater than the maximum channel busy level then the retransmission probability is set to 0%, and within the minimum and maximum channel busy level retransmission thresholds the retransmission probability is set to decrease from 100% to 0% as a channel busy level of the communication channel rises from the minimum channel busy level retransmission threshold to the maximum channel busy level retransmission threshold. The message is retransmitted responsive to randomly determining whether to retransmit according to the retransmission probability.
