Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle electronics, and in particular to a system for sharing GNSS data between vehicle electronic domains. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of intelligent in-vehicle electronics, intelligent driving and intelligent cockpits are widely used, and traditional electronic architectures are evolving from distributed to domain and centralized computing architectures. While advanced electronic architectures provide a platform foundation for continuous updates to various functions, the application of these functions still relies on powerful hardware at the underlying level, such as sensors, chips, cellular, Bluetooth, and WiFi communications. This has also led to a continuous increase in the cost proportion of in-vehicle electronics.
[0003] Some underlying functional requirements are duplicated across electronic domains, such as cellular communication. Remote vehicle control, infotainment system networking, and remote 360° surround view monitoring all require this functionality. Corresponding to the current electronic architecture, there is a dedicated communication domain specifically for implementing wireless communication functions, eliminating the need for each electronic domain to have a cellular communication module, thus avoiding increased costs. Existing vehicle domain controllers all have GNSS functionality modules (such as...). Fig. 1-2 As shown in the figure, the duplication of GNSS functions also increases the cost of the vehicle domain controller. Utility Model Content
