An in-vehicle communication scheme for multi-system integration

With more and more devices being introduced into vehicles to provide additional driving functionality, driving experience is seemingly getting more complex and frustrated due to an influx of individual messages. To help manage the information, we need a mechanism to orchestrate the operations of the in-vehicle devices so that such frustration can be eased. In this study, we propose an in-vehicle communication scheme for multi-system integration, where an effective system service discovery protocol is used. This proposed design also contains mutual communication methods and the data exchange methodologies for system integration. Experimental results with data analysis demonstrate the success of the proposed design.
