Patent number: 9923671Abstract: A communication control part includes a delivered value storing part, a replacement value storing part and a set value changing part in addition to a retransmission BSR timer. The delivered value storing part stores a delivered value delivered from a radio base station as a timer set value for the retransmission BSR timer. The replacement value storing part stores a replacement value, which is to be applied as the timer set value as a substitute of the delivered value. The set value changing part F5 sets the delivered value as the timer set value when data is not present in a LCG buffer, which corresponds to a particular application. The set value changing part sets the replacement value as the timer set value when data is present in the LCG buffer, which corresponds to the particular application.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2016Date of Patent: March 20, 2018Assignee: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Takuma Kyo, Hidenori Akita

Patent number: 9407420Abstract: An inter-vehicle communication device that is connected to a wide-area communication terminal determines a dedicated short-range communication resource assignment by using a wide-area communication resource assignment that is assigned to the wide-area communication terminal. Since a plurality of terminals are not assigned to the same resource block in the wide-area communication resource assignment, the dedicated short-range communication resource assignment determined by using the wide-area wireless communication resource assignment can also prevent a plurality of terminals from being assigned to the same time slot. The wide-area communication resource assignment is essentially necessary for the communication between a base station communication device and the terminals. Since the wide-area communication resource assignment which is necessary is used to determine the dedicated short-range communication resource assignment, a limit to the amount of downlink data can be reduced.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: August 2, 2016Assignee: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Yuuji Kamiya, Hidenori Akita, Toshiya Saito
