Abstract
A system and method for optimizing optical communication for autonomous vehicles, including: determining a predetermined route of a vehicle equipped with an optical communication device (OCD) including an array of micromirrors; determining a location of at least one infrastructure unit along the predetermined route; determining optimal angles for the array of micromirrors based on the predetermined route and the determined location of the at least one infrastructure unit to optimize optical communication between the OCD and the at least one infrastructure unit; and adjusting the array of micromirrors based on the determined optimal angles.
Claims21
A method for optimizing optical communication for autonomous vehicles, comprising:
- determining a predetermined route of a vehicle equipped with an optical communication device (OCD) including an array of micromirrors;
- determining a location of at least one infrastructure unit along the predetermined route;
- determining angles required for the array of micromirrors based on the predetermined route, the determined location of the at least one infrastructure unit, and a speed of the vehicle to facilitate optical communication between the OCD and the at least one infrastructure unit;
- and
- adjusting the array of micromirrors based on the determined angles.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions for causing a processing circuitry to perform a process, the process comprising:
- determining a predetermined route of a vehicle equipped with an optical communication device (OCD) including an array of micromirrors;
- determining a location of at least one infrastructure unit along the predetermined route;
- determining angles required for the array of micromirrors based on the predetermined route, the determined location of the at least one infrastructure unit, and a speed of the vehicle to facilitate optical communication between the OCD and the at least one infrastructure unit;
- and
- adjusting the array of micromirrors based on the determined angles.
A system for optimizing optical communication for autonomous vehicles, comprising:
- a processing circuitry;
- and
- a memory, the memory containing instructions that, when executed by the processing circuitry, configure the system to:
- determine a predetermined route of a vehicle equipped with an optical communication device (OCD) including an array of micromirrors;
- determine a location of at least one infrastructure unit along the predetermined route;
- determine angles required for the array of micromirrors based on the predetermined route, the determined location of the at least one infrastructure unit, and a speed of the vehicle to facilitate optical communication between the OCD and the at least one infrastructure unit;
