    摘要: A portable communication device, for implementation with a host vehicle of transportation having an on-board diagnostics port and a limited-access head-unit display. The device includes an on-board diagnostics connector sized and shaped to connect to the on-board diagnostics port of the host vehicle, a hardware-based processing unit in communication with the on-board diagnostics; and a non-transitory storage device in communication with the processing unit, the storage device. The storage includes a media-options presentation module that, when executed by the processing unit: sends, by way of the on-board diagnostics connector and port, media-options data to the host vehicle for presenting user media options by way of the limited-access head-unit display; and receives user-selection data responding to the user media options. The storage also includes a media streaming module that, when executed obtains streaming media based on the user-selection data, and sends the streaming media to the host vehicle for presentation.

    摘要: A system and method of providing one or more vehicle functions at a vehicle, the method including: when the vehicle is in a powered off state, periodically scanning for short-range wireless communication (SRWC) devices using a SRWC chipset and, as a result of the scanning, receiving a connection request from a mobile device; in response thereto, establishing a SRWC connection with the mobile device using the SRWC chipset; after establishing the SRWC connection, authorizing the mobile device to access one or more vehicle functions; then, performing an initialization suite of operations, wherein the initialization suite of operations includes initializing at least one vehicle system module, and wherein the initialization suite of operations is performed in response to a predictive user determination indicative of an imminent user interaction with the vehicle; and executing the initialization suite of operations at the vehicle.

    摘要: A processor-implemented method by a message recipient in a vehicle or on a mobile device for decoding overlapping wireless messages is provided. The method comprises: receiving a first message from a first message sender that overlaps with a second message received from a second message sender; estimating, in a first signal recovery phase, a received data symbol (d0) from the first message and a channel impulse response (h1) corresponding to a data channel between the message recipient and the second message sender; estimating, in a second signal recovery phase, a received data symbol (d0)′ from the first message and a received data symbol (d1) from the second message; and reconstructing the first message from the estimated data symbol (d0) estimated in the first signal recovery phase and estimated data symbol (d0)′ estimated during the second signal recovery phase and reconstructing the second message from the estimated data symbol (d1) estimated during the second signal recovery phase.
