First Claim
1. A method of controlling a Wi-Fi device in a vehicle, the method comprising:
- determining, via a controller of the Wi-Fi device, an abnormal state of the vehicle;
adding, via the controller, vendor specific data in a management frame to be transmitted to a different Wi-Fi device in a different vehicle via Wi-Fi Direct based on the determined abnormal state;
transmitting, via a wireless communication unit of the Wi-Fi device, the generated vendor specific data to the different Wi-Fi device,wherein the management frame comprises at least one of a probe request frame, a probe response frame, a service request frame and a service response frame, andwherein the management frame is transmitted before an authenticated connection is established between the Wi-Fi device and the different Wi-Fi device.
