Abstract
The present invention relates to a system and method for controlling an integrated network of a vehicle, and more particularly, to a system and method, which separately identifies a malfunction of a plurality of communication networks applied to a vehicle and integrally controls power off and power on of the communication networks using a communication gateway. The integrated network system includes: a gateway configured to connect a plurality of networks; a plurality of vehicle networks connected to the gateway and connectable to each other by the gateway; and an Ethernet configured to transmit a signal processed in the gateway to the exterior of the gateway to analyze communication states of the plurality of vehicle networks connected to the gateway.
Claims18
An integrated network system for a vehicle, comprising:
- a gateway configured to connect a plurality of vehicle networks;
- a plurality of vehicle networks connected to the gateway and connectable to each other by the gateway;
- and
- an Ethernet configured to transmit a signal processed in the gateway to the exterior of the gateway to analyze a plurality of communication states of the plurality of vehicle networks connected to the gateway,
- wherein the gateway classifies a plurality of received signals of the plurality of vehicle networks, and when a signal for powering on another network is detected among the classified signals, the gateway powers on the corresponding network.
A method for controlling an integrated network system, the method comprising:
- classifying, by a gateway, a plurality of received signals of a plurality of vehicle networks connected in the gateway;
- detecting, by the gateway, a signal for powering on another network among the plurality of classified signals;
- and
- powering on, by the gateway, a corresponding network through the detected signal, when a signal for powering on another network among the plurality of the classified signals exists.
A non-transitory computer readable medium containing program instructions executed by a processor or controller, the computer readable medium comprising:
- program instructions that control a gateway to connect a plurality of vehicle networks;
- program instructions that control the gateway to classify a plurality of received signals of the plurality of vehicle networks;
- program instructions that control the gateway to detect a signal for powering on another network among the plurality of classified signals;
- and
- program instructions that control the gateway to power on a corresponding network through the detected signal, when a signal for powering on another network among the plurality of the classified signals exists.
