Abstract
An automobile communication device receives a message from a peripheral device in an automobile. The message triggers transmission of a request. The automobile communication device transmits the request. The automobile communication device receives over the first cell group a control message configuring a second cell group. The automobile communication device receives a plurality of packets over the first cell group and the second cell group. The automobile communication device forwards the plurality of packets to the peripheral device.
Claims20
A method for use by an automobile communication device, the method comprising:
- receiving, from one of a plurality of peripheral devices in an automobile, at least one first message to trigger transmission of a request to an application server;
- transmitting, to a base station over a first cell, a first random access preamble after receiving the at least one first message;
- receiving, from the base station, at least one first control message comprising configuration parameters of a plurality of cells, the plurality of cells being grouped into a plurality of cell groups comprising:
- a first cell group comprising a first subset of the plurality of cells, uplink transmission timing in the first cell group being derived employing the first cell in the first cell group;
- and
- a second cell group comprising a second subset of the plurality of cells, uplink transmission timing in the second cell group being derived employing a second cell in the second cell group;
- transmitting a second random access preamble in the second cell group;
- transmitting the request destined for the application server, to the base station over the first cell group;
- receiving a plurality of packets over the first cell group and the second cell group;
- and
- forwarding the plurality of packets to one or more of the plurality of peripheral devices.
A method for use by an automobile communication device, the method comprising:
- receiving, from one of a plurality of peripheral devices in an automobile, at least one first message to trigger transmission of a request to an application server, the at least one first message being generated in response to an input from an automobile user to one of the plurality of peripheral devices;
- transmitting, to a base station over a first cell of a plurality of cells, a first random access preamble after receiving the at least one first message;
- receiving, from the base station, at least one first control message comprising configuration parameters of the first cell in a first cell group;
- transmitting the request destined for the application server, to the base station over the first cell group;
- receiving, from the base station over the first cell group, at least one second control message comprising configuration parameters of a second cell group comprising at least one second cell;
- transmitting a second random access preamble on a cell in the second cell group;
- receiving a plurality of packets over the first cell group and the second cell group;
- and
- forwarding the plurality of packets to one or more of the plurality of peripheral devices.
An automobile communication device comprising:
- one or more communication interfaces;
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed, cause the automobile communication device to:
- receive at least one first message from one of a plurality of peripheral devices in an automobile, the at least one first message triggering transmission of a request to an application server;
- transmit a first random access preamble to a base station over a first cell in a plurality of cells after receiving the at least one first message;
- receive from the base station at least one first control message comprising configuration parameters of the first cell in a first cell group;
- transmit the request destined for the application server, to the base station over the first cell group;
- receive, from the base station over the first cell group, at least one second control message comprising configuration parameters of a second cell group comprising at least one second cell;
- transmit a second random access preamble over a cell in the second cell group;
- receive a plurality of packets over the first cell group and the second cell group;
- and
- forward the plurality of packets to one of the plurality of peripheral devices.
