Abstract
A system for providing communication between a vehicle having a plurality of applications (204, 206, 208; 304, 306, 308) and a plurality of wireless devices operating via a plurality of communication standards includes a receiver (218; 318) and a wireless data transfer module (202; 302). The receiver is configured to receive wireless signals from at least one of the plurality of wireless devices. The received wireless signals are provided in accordance with a communication standard from the plurality of communication standards and include data. The wireless data transfer module (202; 302) is coupled to the receiver and is configured to support the plurality of communication standards, to process the wireless signals and to direct the data of the wireless signals to a corresponding vehicle system (204, 206, 208; 304, 306, 308). The system may further include a transmitter (218; 318) coupled to the wireless data transfer module (202; 302). The transmitter (218; 318) is configured to transmit wireless signals from the vehicle to at least one of the plurality of wireless devices The wireless data transfer module (202; 302) receives data from a vehicle system (206, 206, 208; 304, 306, 308) and provides the data to the transmitter (218; 318) in accordance with a communication standard from the plurality of communication standards.
