Patent number: 11706831Abstract: A wireless device (100) is configured for dual mode V2X communications over multiple short range radio interfaces. The wireless device (100) is configured to transmit ITS messages over a first short range radio interface configured to operate according to a first communication standard (e.g. PC5 or IEEE 802.11p), and to receive ITS messages over both the first short range radio interface and a second short radio interface configured to operate according to a second communication standard. Implementing the transmitter chain of only one technology, either PC5 or IEEE 802.11p, at each wireless device (100) reduces complexity and mitigates co-channel and adjacent channel interference that is caused by uncoordinated and concurrent transmissions of different technologies from the same wireless device. Implementing receiver chains for both PC5 and 802.11p allows the wireless device (100) to receive signals in the ITS frequency band regardless of which technology the transmitting device is using.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2018Date of Patent: July 18, 2023Assignee: TELEFONAKTIEBOLAGET LM ERICSSON (PUBL)Inventors: Håkan Andersson, Maciej Muhleisen, Tomas Nylander, Evanny Obregon, Stefano Sorrentino, Erika Tejedor, Henrik Voigt, Yunpeng Zang

Patent number: 11582774Abstract: There are provided mechanisms for sharing channels in a wireless communications system among wireless devices that use a plurality of different access technologies. First and second wireless devices are operable to share a channel in the wireless communication system with each other. The first wireless device is operable to provide an indication to the second wireless device that the first wireless device is using a first access technology to access the channel. The second wireless device is operable to receive the indication and determine, based on the indication, that the first wireless device is using a first access technology to access the channel. Accordingly, the second wireless device can determine, based on compatibility of its access technology with that of the first wireless device, whether to refrain from using the channel or to share the channel.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2017Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: TELEFONAKTIEBOLAGET LM ERICSSON (PUBL)Inventors: Stefano Sorrentino, Erika Tejedor
