Abstract: The subject matter described herein presents various technical solutions for the technical problems facing autonomous vehicles (e.g., fully autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicles). To address technical problems facing wireless communication cost and latency, a heterogeneous roadside infrastructure can be used to improve the ability for a vehicle to communicate with a data source. To address technical problems facing interruption of vehicle services due to an abrupt loss of connection, a quality of service system provides the ability to determine and share quality of service information, such as location-based information, maps, interference data, and other quality of service information. To address technical problems facing high volume data upload and download between autonomous vehicles and cloud-based data services, optical wireless communication (OWC) provides increased data throughput and reduced complexity and may be beneficial for short-range high-mobility wireless communications.

Abstract: A station (STA), when operating as a responding STA (RSTA) for time-synchronization of a plurality of initiating STAs (ISTAs) in a time-synchronized network (TSN), may determine, during a negotiation phase, whether each of the ISTAs that intend to participate in one or more measurement phases are requesting to be polled or are requesting not to be polled. For the ISTAs that are requesting to be polled, the RSTA may perform a polling phase prior to performing each of the one or more measurement phases. For the ISTAs that are requesting not to be polled, the RSTA may refrain from performing a polling phase prior to performing each of the one or more measurement phases. The RSTA can directly trigger the measurement phase for ISTAs that are requesting not to be polled. By grouping ISTAs into polling and non-polling groups, efficiency improvements are achieved.
