  • Publication number: 20200203814
    Abstract: A vehicle antenna module is adapted to be assembled with a vehicle roof plate and includes a Telematics-Box and an antenna assembly. The Telematics-Box is fixed on the vehicle roof plate and includes at least one first sliding portion, at least one first latching portion and a first connector. The first sliding portion, the first latching portion and the first connector protrude out of at least one assembling hole in the vehicle roof plate. The antenna assembly is slidably arranged on the Telematics-Box, and the vehicle roof plate is located between the antenna assembly and the Telematics-Box. The antenna assembly includes at least one second sliding portion, at least one second latching portion and a second connector. When the second sliding portion slides along the first sliding portion, the second latching portion is latched to the first latching portion, and the second connector is electrically connected to the first connector.

  • Patent number: 10665094
    Abstract: A method, a mobile device, and a system for message transmission of a vulnerable road user (VRU) are provided. The method is adapted to a first mobile device of a first VRU and includes the following steps. Whether there exists a target mobile device within a preset range of the first VRU is determined, where the target mobile device is a mobile device that has already broadcast a personal safety message (PSM). When the target mobile device exists within the preset range, whether to broadcast a first PSM is determined according to a relative distance between the target mobile device and an intersection as well as a relative distance between the target mobile device and the first mobile device. When the target mobile device doesn't exist within the preset range, the first PSM is broadcast.

  • Patent number: 9497768
    Abstract: A method of dynamic adjusting a generation frequency of messages in vehicular networks is provided, including: receiving updating requests and emergent degree of the vehicle event, and then determining whether the generation frequency of messages meets the dynamic change of the vehicle, if not satisfied, selecting a different adjustment method according to the event emergent degree. When the event is emergent, its generation frequency can be raised immediately by an interruptive adjustment and to suppress the generation frequency of messages of the others. Conversely, adjusting its generation frequency by a progressive adjustment and reducing the generation frequency of messages of the other lower-priority vehicles. According to the present disclosure, it prevents lower priority messages from occupying the channel overly, and emergency messages with higher priority can be satisfied immediately when it needed.
