System and method for mobile data expansion and virtual pathway designation

Abstract

A data expansion system that provides for wireless communication includes a set of roadway communication devices configured to enable vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication. The system includes a first roadway communication device configured to receive data from a first electronic device in a first vehicle and a second roadway communication device communicatively coupled to the first roadway device. The second roadway communication device is configured to communicate the data to a second electronic device in a second vehicle. Each roadway communication device includes a wireless transceiver to transmit and receive data; a communication interface to establish communication links with other roadway communication devices; and processing circuitry to relay the data between the other roadway communication devices or electronic devices in respective vehicles. Each roadway communication device also includes a housing that contains the processing circuitry, communication interface and the wireless transceiver. The housing is configured to be mounted within a roadway surface.
