Abstract
A vehicle localization system and method uses a hybrid communication layer. The system and method detect a vehicle location and transmit the vehicle location to an application layer using a plurality of communication methods. In addition, the method and system can determine a preferable communication method. The preferable communication method can be dependent on past vehicle locations.
Claims14
A vehicle localization and transmission method comprising:
- detecting, via processing circuitry, a vehicle location;
