  • Patent number: 11072340
    Abstract: A method of controlling a mobile intelligent transport system (ITS) station. The method includes sensing a power of a signal received on a first channel of a dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) interface; and when a time during which the power of the received signal is greater than a threshold, or a number of times the power of the received signal is greater than the threshold satisfies a first predetermined value, determining a message transmission is impossible on the first channel.

  • Patent number: 10663970
    Abstract: A vehicle control device includes: a communication unit; a sensing unit configured to sense information associated with a vehicle; an output unit including at least one of a display unit or an audio output unit; at least one processor; and a computer-readable medium coupled to the at least one processor having stored thereon instructions which causes the at least one processor to perform operations including: receiving, through the communication unit, first information associated with charging stations from a first external device and second information associated with a driver of the vehicle from a second external device different from the first external device; receiving, through the sensing unit, third information associated with the vehicle; generating fourth information associated with charging of the vehicle based on at least one of the first information, the second information, or third information; and outputting, through the communication unit or the output unit, the fourth information.

  • Publication number: 20200033147
    Abstract: A method for determining driving mode and path considering a communication environment is provided. In the method for determining the driving mode and path considering the communication environment, the communication environment for the entire section of a path is analyzed in real time using V2X devices disposed on the path to a destination, a path providing the communication environment optimal for autonomous driving is recommended for a vehicle, and thus, a user effectively uses the autonomous driving. The method for determining the driving method and path according to the present invention and an autonomous vehicle using the method are associated with an artificial intelligence module, a robot, an augmented reality (AR) device, a virtual reality (VR) device, and a device related to a 5G service.

  • Patent number: 10373504
    Abstract: A method of acquiring, by a vehicle, information about one or more vehicles located outside the vehicle. The method includes: in a state in which the one or more vehicles are located in a global positioning system (GPS) dead zone: receiving, by at least one processor of the vehicle and from the one or more vehicles, (i) location information that includes information about a location of the one or more vehicles, and (ii) situation information that corresponds to the location information and that includes information about a situation of the one or more vehicles; filtering, by the at least one processor, the situation information received from the one or more vehicles; and controlling, by the at least one processor, a user interface device of the vehicle to output content based on a result of filtering the situation information.
