In-vehicle apparatus

摘要

An in-vehicle apparatus for performing a short range communication with a road side apparatus, which performs a hybrid communication including a broadcast communication and a point-to-point communication, is disclosed. The in-vehicle apparatus includes a communication unit and a retry count determination unit that determines whether a count of failure to establish the communication in an activation channel in the communication unit reaches a preset retry count. The in-vehicle apparatus re-selects a communication frequency when the retry count determination unit determines that the count of failure to establish the communication in the activation channel reaches the preset retry count.

1. An in-vehicle apparatus for performing a short range communication with a road side apparatus that performs a hybrid communication including a broadcast communication with multiple unspecified vehicles and a point-to-point communication with a specific vehicle of the multiple unspecified vehicles, the in-vehicle apparatus comprising:
a communication unit that performs communication with the road side apparatus; a frequency selection unit that selects a communication frequency, which is a preset frequency for the short range communication; a start notification determination unit that determines whether, during the hybrid communication, the communication units has received a point-to-point start notification of the point-to-point communication within a preset time period after the communication unit received a broadcast start notification of the broadcast communication; and a frequency re-selection unit that re-selects the communication frequency when the start notification determination unit determines that the communication unit has not received the point-to-point start notification of the point-to-point communication within the preset period of time after the communication unit received the broadcast start notification of the broadcast communication.
