SYSTEMS AND METHODS IMPLEMENTING A COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL FOR DATA COMMUNICATION WITH A VEHICLE

摘要

A system and method configured to establish a communication connection between a vehicle and a remote computing device for data transmission. A beacon device is configured at a location to detect the presence of the vehicle, transmit an identity of the location to the vehicle, and communicate with the vehicle to determine an identity of the vehicle. The vehicle is configured to communicate with mobile devices of occupants of the vehicle. The remote computing device is connected to the beacon device via a data communication network and configured to determine, via the beacon device communicating with the vehicle, identification information of at least one mobile device of at least one occupant of the vehicle, and establish the communication connection between the computing device and the vehicle based at least in part on the identification information and the identity of the vehicle.

主权项

1. A method, comprising:
providing, at a first location on a pathway for vehicles, a beacon device connected via a data communication network to a computing device disposed at a second location remote from the first location; detecting, by the beacon device, presence of a vehicle on the pathway; communicating by the beacon device with the vehicle on the pathway; determining, by the beacon device, an identity of the vehicle on the pathway; determining, based on the identity of the vehicle and via the beacon device communicating with the vehicle, identification information of at least one mobile device carried in the vehicle; and establishing a communication connection between the computing device and the vehicle based at least in part on the identification information and the identity of the vehicle.
