An In-Vehicle Infotainment Platform for Integrating Heterogeneous Networks Interconnection

In order to effectively manage the information exchange between telematics equipment and various terminal equipment in a vehicle. This paper proposes a platform, which uses an in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) system as a heterogeneous networks interconnection gateway. The proposed platform integrates the power line communication (PLC), the visible light communication (VLC), the CAN Bus, and the other related heterogeneous networks. Hence, the platform can be used as a heterogeneous networks coordinator, which is a key role of the intelligent transportation system applications. As a result, with the proposed platform, a flexible network can be organized to achieve vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication, and therefore to provide traffic safety related application services.
