Multi-Hop V2X Node Tree Configuration for Intersection Communication
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In multi-hop vehicle-to-anything (V2X) communication environments, existing technologies face challenges in managing communication load and establishing connections, particularly at intersections, due to increased complexity and potential obstacles, which can hinder efficient data transmission and warning services for vehicles.
Innovation Solution
A wireless communication apparatus and method that determines operation candidate applications based on vehicle driving information to configure a multi-hop communication node tree, setting communication nodes for vehicles approaching from different directions at intersections, and using intermediate nodes to establish connections when direct paths are obstructed, thereby reducing communication load and ensuring data transmission.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of stationary object
If multi-hop communication is used to extend communication range, then communication coverage is improved, but communication load increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the communication network into hierarchical levels (Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 nodes) based on communication hops from the base station. Level 1 nodes communicate directly with the base station, Level 2 nodes communicate with Level 1 nodes, and Level 3 nodes communicate with Level 2 nodes. This segmentation allows extended communication coverage while distributing the communication load across multiple hierarchical levels rather than concentrating it in a single multi-hop path.
2Area of stationary object
If communication nodes are increased to cover intersections, then communication coverage is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by configuring communication nodes with direction-specific attributes. Each communication node is configured with direction information (first direction, second direction, third direction) corresponding to different approach roads at the intersection. This allows the system to manage complex intersection scenarios by treating each directional approach as a distinct local configuration, reducing overall system complexity through localized management.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces direction information as an intermediary element that mediates between multiple communication nodes at the intersection. By using direction information to identify and differentiate communication nodes approaching from different roads, the system simplifies the configuration and management of multiple nodes without requiring complex direct node-to-node identification mechanisms.
3Speed
If direct communication paths are used, then communication speed is improved, but reliability decreases due to obstacles
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-configuring multiple communication paths (direct paths and relay paths through intermediate nodes) before communication obstacles arise. When a direct communication path is blocked by an obstacle, the system can immediately switch to a pre-established relay path through intermediate communication nodes, maintaining communication reliability without requiring real-time path recalculation.
