COMMUNICATION ASSISTANCE APPARATUS AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A communication assistance apparatus assists the communication between a mobile terminal and an in-vehicle apparatus connected to various units of a vehicle, and includes a proximity wireless interface and a retaining portion. The proximity wireless interface is connected to the in-vehicle apparatus in order to receive, by proximity high-speed wireless communication, data from the mobile terminal and transmit, by proximity high-speed wireless communication, data from the in-vehicle apparatus to the mobile terminal. The retaining portion is disposed in a vehicle compartment of the vehicle to retain the mobile terminal so as to establish proximity high-speed wireless communication between the proximity wireless interface and the mobile terminal.
