Abstract
A method for diagnostic communication in a vehicle involves connecting a communication node to another communication node according to a predetermined connection sequence. The method includes monitoring the communication connection status of one node to determine if it meets a predefined error condition and selectively performing a recovery procedure if the error condition is satisfied. This approach facilitates error recognition and recovery, reducing communication failures, delays, and unnecessary resource usage in vehicle networks.
Claims20
A method for diagnostic communication in a vehicle, comprising:
- an operation in which one of a plurality of communication nodes in a vehicle is connected to another of the plurality of communication nodes for communication therewith according to a predetermined connection sequence using a processor;
- an operation in which one of the plurality of communication nodes monitors whether a communication connection status for another of the plurality of communication nodes satisfies a predetermined communication connection error condition using the processor;
- and
- an operation in which one of the plurality of communication nodes selectively performs a predetermined communication connection recovery procedure depending on whether the communication connection status satisfies the predetermined communication connection error condition using the processor.
An apparatus for diagnostic communication in a vehicle, comprising:
- an edge communication node configured to receive a message from outside of a vehicle and protocol convert or route the received message using a processor;
- and
- a control communication node configured to receive the message protocol converted or routed by the edge communication node using the processor,
- wherein the edge communication node is configured to be connected to the control communication node for communication therewith according to a predetermined connection sequence, and monitor whether a communication connection status for the control communication node satisfies a predetermined communication connection error condition, and selectively perform a predetermined communication connection recovery procedure depending on whether the communication connection status satisfies the predetermined communication connection error condition using the processor.
