Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method of providing a current local environment status map for a motor vehicle, and to a motor vehicle and a system for carrying out the method. The method includes generating own driving situation data which describe a current, position-related vehicle parameter of the motor vehicle, and generating environment situation data which describe a current arrangement of a further motor vehicle located in a predefined environment of the motor vehicle. The method also includes generating, based on these data, a vehicle environment map which describes a current local traffic situation in the predefined environment. The further vehicle environment maps of the environment of the vehicle are received from at least one other the further motor vehicle and are combined with the generated vehicle environment map using a map data evaluation criterion in order to generate an improved current local environment status map for the motor vehicle.

Abstract: Embodiments create the present method, communication module, vehicle, system, and computer program for authenticating a mobile radio device for a location-specific function of a vehicle. The vehicle comprises a transmitter designed for transmitting mobile radio signals in a mobile radio system and a receiver designed for receiving mobile radio signals in a mobile radio system. Furthermore, a control module designed for controlling the transmitter and the receiver is provided, said control module being coupled to the transmitter and the receiver, and the control module is additionally designed to convert the transmitter from a first mode to a second mode when the vehicle is parked. The transmitter consumes less energy in the second mode than in the first mode. Furthermore, a received mobile radio signal of the mobile radio device is evaluated, said signal comprising information on the identity of the mobile radio device.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, a communication device, a control component, a mobile station, a vehicle, a system, and computer programs for configuring local wireless communication between the communication device and a mobile device close to a vehicle or between mobile devices of a mobile radio system that are close to a vehicle. The communication device comprises a transceiver, which is designed for communication with a control component of the mobile radio system; a control module, which is coupled to the transceiver and is designed to control the transceiver, wherein the control module is also designed to communicate in a first frequency band in the mobile radio system in order to obtain a configuration of a second frequency band of the mobile radio system for the local wireless communication.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a charging device that supplies electrical charging energy for electrical energy stores of mobile electrical consumer units. The mobile electrical consumer units have at least one electrical energy storage unit and at least one charging interface via which electrical charging energy can be transferred from the energy storage unit to an energy store of a mobile electrical consumer unit. In order to improve the availability of electrical charging energy for energy stores of mobile electrical consumer units, the charging device takes the form of a self-driving motor vehicle.

Abstract: A method for processing a recognition result of an automatic online speech recognizer for a mobile end device by a communication exchange device, wherein the recognition result for a phrase spoken by a user is received from the online speech recognizer as a text. A language model of permitted phrases is received from the mobile end device. A specification of meaning relating to a meaning of the phrase is assigned to each permitted phrase by the language model, and, through a decision-making logic of the communication exchange device, the text of the recognition result is compared with the permitted phrases defined by the language model and, for a matching permitted phrase in accordance with a predetermined matching criterion, the specification of meaning thereof is determined and the specification of meaning is provided to the mobile end device.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for checking an onboard speech recognition system of a motor vehicle, wherein, in an online mode, a recognition result of an online speech recognition service, and a recognition result of the onboard speech recognition system, are received for a voice input, and a comparison result of the recognition results is ascertained. A result pattern is received from the onboard speech recognition system for the voice input, and the result pattern, together with the comparison result, is stored in a pattern memory unit. In an offline mode, the recognition result of the onboard speech recognition system and the associated present result pattern are received for a further voice input, and a search for an agreeing, stored recognition situation is carried out based on the present result pattern.

Abstract: The invention relates to a motor vehicle including a communication unit, which includes at least one wireless module and is configured to operate a respective wireless link, by way of the at least one wireless module, to at least one vehicle-external object for exchanging communication data. A plurality of function programs are provided in the motor vehicle, which are each configured to provide a vehicle functionality that is based on the communication data. A plurality of control units are provided, which are different from the communication unit, of which each includes a service module which is configured, independently of the function programs, to exchange the communication data from the respective control unit via the communication unit. The function programs are distributed among the control units and are configured to exchange the communication data with the respective service module of the control unit.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to a control device for coupling an antenna assembly of a motor vehicle to at least one vehicle component of the motor vehicle for an exchange of messages with vehicle-external objects. The control device comprises a first radio module for providing a first radio link to at least one of the objects on the basis of a first radio standard, a second radio module for providing a second radio link to at least one other of the objects on the basis of a second radio standard, and a processor device for receiving some of the messages via the first radio link and some other of the messages via the second radio link. The processor device includes a synchronization unit configured to forward the received messages in a sequence determined by the time data to the at least one vehicle component.
