Abstract
A method of evaluating performance of a communication apparatus for a vehicle includes performing communication with a base station, monitoring a fail event and determining a fail event score based on results of the monitoring, monitoring an attempt of a handover and determining a pingpong handover (PPHO) score based on results of the monitoring, monitoring a retention time within a shadow area and determining a service score based on results of the monitoring, and determining a final score based on the fail event score, the PPHO score, and the service score.
Claims18
A method of evaluating performance of a communication apparatus for a vehicle, the method being performed by the communication apparatus and comprising:
- performing communication with a base station;
- monitoring a fail event and determining a fail event score based on results of the monitoring;
- monitoring an attempt of a handover and determining a pingpong handover (PPHO) score based on the results of the monitoring;
- monitoring a retention time within a shadow area and determining a service score based on the results of the monitoring;
- and
- determining a final score based on the fail event score, the PPHO score, and the service score, wherein the PPHO score is determined by subtracting a value that has been preset in a PPHO or a pattern PPHO from an initial value that has been arbitrarily set when the PPHO or the pattern PPHO occurs.
A communication apparatus for a vehicle, comprising:
- a communication unit configured to communicate with a base station;
- and
- a processor configured to monitor a fail event, determine a fail event score based on results of the monitoring of the fail event, monitor an attempt of a handover, determine a pingpong handover (PPHO) score based on results of the monitoring of the attempt of the handover, monitor a retention time within a shadow area, determine a service score based on results of the monitoring of the retention time, and determine a final score based on the fail event score, the PPHO score, and the service score, wherein the processor determines the PPHO score by subtracting a value that has been preset in a PPHO or a pattern PPHO from an initial value that has been arbitrarily set when the PPHO or the pattern PPHO occurs.
