System and methods of wireless vehicle to vehicle data sharing
First Claim
1. A multimedia system for a vehicle, said system comprising:
- a data storage device configured to store multimedia data packets transmitted by a system broadcast;
a processor coupled to said data storage device and configured to determine a non-received group of multimedia data packets based on said stored multimedia data packets of said system broadcast; and
a transceiver coupled to said processor, said transceiver configured to;
transmit a request signal for multimedia data packets of said non-received group of multimedia data packets; and
receive multimedia data packets transmitted from said system broadcast and multimedia data packets transmitted from a system vehicle in response to said request signal.

Abstract
System, methods, and apparatus are provided for wireless vehicle-to-vehicle sharing of multimedia data. The system includes a data storage device configured to store multimedia data packets transmitted by a system broadcast, a processor coupled to the data storage device and configured to determine a non-received group of multimedia data packets based on the stored multimedia data packets of the system broadcast, and a transceiver coupled to the processor. The transceiver is configured to receive multimedia data packets transmitted from the system broadcast and multimedia data packets transmitted from a system vehicle in response to the request signal. The method includes the steps of determining non-received multimedia data packets based on a system broadcast in a first wireless protocol, and requesting multimedia data packets of the non-received multimedia data packets in a second wireless protocol from system vehicles.
