First Claim
Patent Images
1. A switching device connected to an antenna unit for car-to-X communication, comprising:
- an interface to communicate with a mobile terminal device, the mobile terminal device comprising a computing unit; and
a control device to receive messages via the antenna, and to selectively forward the received messages from the antenna unit to the mobile terminal device based on control commands from the mobile terminal device and to selectively transmit alert messages to the mobile terminal device based on control commands from the mobile terminal device,the control device having a filter configurable based on control commands received from the mobile terminal device to selectively filter out as irrelevant received messages from the antenna unit such that received messages which are irrelevant are not forwarded to the mobile terminal device.

Abstract
A switching device for connection to an antenna unit and a computing unit to form a communication device for car-to-X communication, in particular a DSRC communication device. The switching device has at least one interface for communication with a mobile terminal device, in particular a mobile telephone. The switching device includes a computing unit and a control device to forward at least a part of received messages to the mobile terminal device and/or to transmit messages on the basis of a control command from the mobile terminal device.

14. A switching device connected to an antenna unit for car-to-X communication, comprising:
-
an interface to communicate with a mobile terminal device, the mobile terminal device comprising a computing unit; and a control device to selectively forward received messages from the antenna unit to the mobile terminal device based on control commands from the mobile terminal device and/or to selectively transmit alert messages based on control commands from the mobile terminal device, the control device having a filter configured based on control commands from the mobile terminal device to selectively filter out as irrelevant received messages from the antenna unit, wherein the control device performs an evaluation on at least a portion of the received messages from the antenna unit, for at least a portion of the received messages from the antenna unit, the control device decides whether to forward messages based on a receive signal strength, and/or for at least a portion of the transmit messages from the mobile terminal device, the control device decides whether to forward messages based on additional information transmitted by the mobile terminal device. - View Dependent Claims (15)

16. A switching device connected to an antenna unit for car-to-X communication, comprising:
-
an interface to communicate with a mobile terminal device, the mobile terminal device comprising a computing unit; and a control device to selectively forward received messages from the antenna unit to the mobile terminal device based on control commands from the mobile terminal device and/or to selectively transmit alert messages based on control commands from the mobile terminal device, the control device having a filter configured based on control commands from the mobile terminal device to selectively filter out as irrelevant received messages from the antenna unit, wherein the control device activates the switching device only when a movement signal indicating a movement of the switching device is received, and after the movement signal, the control device deactivates the switching device. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)

20. A communication device for car-to-X communication, comprising:
-
an antenna unit; a fixed radio frequency transceiver to receive and transmit messages via the antenna unit; an interface to communicate with a mobile terminal device, the mobile terminal device comprising a computing unit; and a switching device configured based on control commands received from the mobile terminal device, to selectively forward messages to the mobile terminal device among messages received at the antenna unit on the fixed radio frequency, and to selectively transmit alert messages from the mobile terminal device, the alert messages comprising messages transmitted at the antenna unit on the fixed radio frequency, the switching device having a filter configurable based on control commands received from the mobile terminal device to selectively filter out as irrelevant received messages from the antenna unit such that received messages which are irrelevant are not forwarded to the mobile terminal device. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22)
