Abstract: An in-vehicle communication system includes a center device that transmits update data to a target device as an electronic control unit installed in a vehicle, a master device that is installed in the vehicle, receives the update data as a distribution package, and transfers the update data to the target device, and the target device that writes the update data transferred from the master device into a storage portion. The center device transmits reprogramming policy metadata to the master device. The master device requests the center device for download metadata. The master device interprets the download metadata, acquires necessary data, and perform data update control of the target device.

Abstract: An onboard communication system includes a center device that transmits update data as a distribution package by a streaming manner to an electronic control unit installed in a vehicle, a master device that is installed in the vehicle and receives the distribution package and transfer the update data to the electronic control unit, and the electronic control unit that writes the update data transferred from the master device to a storage unit. The center device also transmits a hash value calculated for the update data to the master device. The electronic control unit calculates a hash value for the update data and transmits the hash value to the master device. The master device compares the hash value transmitted from the center device with the hash value transmitted from the electronic control unit to verify integrity of the update data.

Abstract: A mobile communication scheme capable of notifying a communication regulation information efficiently by using radio interfaces from the macro-cell system to the micro-cell system, without requiring communications through a fixed communication network, so as to be able to regulate the service through the micro-cell system efficiently in coordination with the regulation of the service through the macro-cell system. In this mobile communication scheme, the communication regulation information is notified from the macro-cell system to the mobile station while the mobile station is located within the macro-cell system, and stored in a memory of the mobile station.

Abstract: A mobile communication system is provided in which a base station commands a mobile station (or field monitor) to measure the field strength for a specific channel. The mobile station reports the measured results to the base station. The measured results are used in conjunction with base station identification codes to obtain a single representative value which is used to determine what channels can be selected and used by the system. This enables an existing cellular system to be utilized as a first mobile communication system, and makes it possible to construct a second mobile communication system in the same area as the service area of the first system.

Abstract: A mobile communication system having a high precision frequency base station device with a high precision frequency generator, and the other low precision frequency base station device with a low precision frequency generator which receives transmission waves from the high precision frequency base station device using a transmission frequency in a prescribed frequency precision, and carries out transmission and reception by controlling transmission and reception frequencies of own station in accordance with the frequency precision of the received transmission waves.

Abstract: Each base station measures the field intensity of downlink rediowaves from other base stations, then analyzes the received rediowaves above a predetermined field intensity value and decides whether they are rediowaves used in the same mobile radio communication system. The base station creates peripheral base station information based on information about the rediowaves decided as being used in the same mobile radio communication system.

Abstract: A mobile station measures the field intensity and bit error rate of a downlink radio wave from a base station at each measurement timing and reports the measured results to the base station. Upon receiving the measured results from each mobile station, the base station compares the measured results with a reference characteristic to determine if they are abnormal or not. The base station acquires the determined results of the measured results for a fixed period of time and statistically processes them to judge the state of interference.
