Systems and methods for vehicle connectivity continuity

摘要

Systems and methods for vehicle connectivity continuity are provided. In one embodiment, a vehicle communication system comprises: a first radio communication device having a predictive availability function, wherein the predictive availability function comprising an input configured to receive time correlated trajectory data for a planned route for a vehicle; and an attitude control model coupled to the predictive availability function, wherein the attitude control model generates and outputs predictions of vehicle attitude for a plurality of route positions defined along the planned route; wherein the predictive availability function generates a blockage schedule of predicted signal blockages of channels utilized by the communication device based on the predictions of vehicle attitude for the plurality of route positions; wherein the first radio communication device is configured to transfer between a first communication channel and a second communication channel at a predetermined position along the planned route based on the blockage schedule.
