| 20090105902 | METHOD FOR PROVIDING VEHICLE ACCIDENT INFORMATION AND APPARATUS THEREFOR - An apparatus for providing vehicle accident information periodically collects vehicle travel information, and stores vehicle travel information that is collected during an accident of a vehicle, in a vehicle black box. The apparatus for providing vehicle accident information collects information about other vehicles through communication with the other vehicles during the accident of the vehicle, and stores the collected information in the vehicle black box. Since the information about the other vehicles is collected through communication with the other vehicles as described above, it is possible to provide more accurate and efficient information required for dealing with the accident. In addition, vehicle accident information, which includes time when an accident occurs, location where an accident occurs, and the type of accident, is transmitted to a related agency such as a police station and a traffic center, so that it is possible to quickly deal with the accident. | 04-23-2009 |
| 20090129364 | METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING SAFETY MESSAGE - A method for a first mobile station to transmit a safety message to a second mobile station is provided. The first mobile station competitively transmits a non-safety message to the second mobile station during a first period. The first mobile station spreads a safety message and generates a spread message when a second period starts, and transmits the spread message to the second mobile station. Accordingly, safety message transmission delay or data loss in the inter-vehicle communication can be prevented. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20100098048 | METHOD FOR HYBRID MEDIUM ACCESS CONTROL FOR VEHICLE COMMUNICATION - A method for hybrid media access control for vehicle communication is provided. The method divides a radio channel into time slots, which are predetermined time units, and sets terminals as owners or non-owners for the divided time slots to be able to access the channel. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce the probability of contention by distributed access to the slots and provide a MAC protocol having excellent performance. | 04-22-2010 |
| 20100098146 | CHANNEL ESTIMATION METHOD AND DEVICE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - Provided is a channel estimation method and device in a wireless communication system. A channel estimating device for estimating a channel based on a received signal generates an initial channel estimate by using a preamble extracted from the received signal, and determines whether there is a midamble between data symbols appearing next to the preamble. When there is a midamble, the channel estimating device acquires a first channel estimate by using the midamble, and acquires an updated second channel estimate by using the initial channel estimate and the first channel estimate. The channel estimating device performs channel equalization with the second channel estimate to compensate distortion. | 04-22-2010 |
| 20100158164 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TIME SYNCHRONIZATION AND RECEPTION APPARATUS OF OFDM SYSTEM - An apparatus for time synchronization of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system oversamples a received signal using a master clock having a frequency at least four times higher than a minimum sampling frequency in a transmission apparatus, sets one of a plurality of oversampled signals to an on-time signal, and shifts each of the remaining oversampled signals by a predetermined time on the basis of the on-time signal. The apparatus for time synchronization calculates a correlation value by correlating each of the shifted signals and the on-time signal with a previously known signal, detects a maximum energy value among the calculated correlation values, and detects a start point of a frame by comparing the maximum energy value with a predetermined threshold value. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100173603 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING WARNING MESSAGE - Provided are a method and a system for transmitting and receiving a warning message that rapidly inform an adjacent hop of a dangerous situation that occurs on a road. The method for transmitting the warning message includes selecting one or more relay vehicles by using distances between vehicles and state information of the vehicles when the dangerous situation occurs on a road or outside, and increasing a warning message sequence number and generating and transmitting a warning message containing an identifier of the relay vehicle and a retransmission time. | 07-08-2010 |
| 20100184369 | COOPERATIVE COMMUNICATION METHOD FOR VEHICULAR COMMUNICATION - A cooperative communication method for vehicular communication is provided. The method in which when one vehicle transmits a signal to another vehicle, a signal of a transmission vehicle passes through a roadside device or a plurality of vehicles and thereafter signals having a plurality of paths are transmitted to a reception vehicle, and the reception vehicle combines and demodulates the signals received through the plurality of paths. | 07-22-2010 |
| 20100226243 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MULTICAST TRANSMISSION IN WIRELESS NETWORK - The present invention provides a method and apparatus for multicast transmission of a transmitting station in a wireless network. The method according to the present invention transmits a plurality of data packets to a plurality of receiving stations, receives information on loss of the plurality of the data packets from at least one of the plurality of the receiving stations, codes the plurality of the data packets into a single coded data packet based on the information on the loss of the plurality of the data packets and transmits an error control frame including the coded data packet to the plurality of the receiving stations. Therefore, when an error occurs at a data packet that a transmitting station transmits to a plurality of receiving stations by a multicast transmission, a number of retransmission of the data packet can be reduced. | 09-09-2010 |
| 20110080312 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING DRIVING SAFETY - A safe driving providing system for supporting a safe driving of a vehicle includes: a radar for transmitting a signal of a predetermined frequency bandwidth to a plurality of vehicles, analyzing signals provided by the vehicles, calculating location information and distance information of the vehicles, and finding inter-vehicle distance information of the vehicles based on the location information and the distance information; and a controller for receiving operation speed information from a vehicle information terminal device installed in each vehicle, determining driving safety of the plurality of vehicles based on the received operation speed information and inter-vehicle distance information provided by the radar, and transmitting a warning message for safe driving to the vehicle information terminal device. | 04-07-2011 |
| 20110134840 | LOCATION BASED VEHICLE MULTIHOP PROTOCOL UNICAST APPARATUS AND ROUTING METHOD USING THE APPARATUS - In order for a source node including a vehicle multihop protocol unicast apparatus to route data to a destination node, the source node broadcasts a location request message to neighbor node and receives a location response message from the neighbor nodes in response to the location request message. Therefore, the source node routs unicast data on the basis of the location information of the destination node included in the location response message. At this time, the source node uses a location based forwarder selecting algorithm in order to select a forwarder. | 06-09-2011 |
