Methods and apparatus for lost connection handling

摘要

A computer-implemented method, executable by a vehicle computing system (VCS), includes determining that a connection between a wireless device and a VCS has been lost. The method further includes determining if a driver is present in the vehicle, upon a lost link detection. The method additionally includes waiting until an enter-event occurs and then attempting to re-establish a connection between the wireless device and the VCS. This last step may be conditional upon a determination that a driver is not present.

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
determining if a connectable device, not currently connected to a vehicle computing system (VCS), is available for connection, once a transmission is in park; detecting an occupant exit-event; detecting a connection loss between a first connected device and the VCS; and conditional on the connectable device being available, once the exit-event and the connection loss have been detected, re-establishing the lost connection with the connectable device to resume the lost connection.
