Apparatus and method for processing sensor data for vehicle using extensible markup language
First Claim
1. An apparatus for processing sensor data for a vehicle using an eXtensible Markup Language (XML), comprising:
- a plurality of vehicle sensors installed inside the vehicle for detecting a change of physical quantity and providing a detection signal;
a sensor transducer for converting the detection signal of the vehicle sensors to an electrical analog signal;
a signal conditioning unit for amplifying the electrical analog signal to a measurable signal;
an Analog/Digital Converter (ADC) for converting the amplified analog signal to sensor data of a digital signal;
a frame generator for generating and providing the sensor data converted to the digital signal per frame; and
a sensor data converter comprising a Dynamic data Exchange Channel (DEC) for batch-processing the sensor data input from the frame generator per frame, in an XML format,wherein the DEC of the sensor data converter defines a structure of the sensor data using a schema of the XML and converts the sensor data format to the XML format at the same time.

Abstract
An apparatus and a method for processing sensor data for a vehicle using an unified data format eXtensible Markup Language in process of data communication between various vehicle sensors and a vehicle application system, which facilitates transmit and receive data processing in terms of a vehicle network of the sensors and the application system are provided. The apparatus for processing the sensor data for the vehicle using the XML includes a plurality of vehicle sensors installed inside the vehicle for detecting a change of physical quantity and providing a detection signal; a sensor transducer for converting the detection signal of the vehicle sensors to an electrical analog signal; a signal conditioning unit for amplifying the electrical analog signal to a measurable signal; an Analog/Digital Converter (ADC) for converting the amplified analog signal to sensor data of a digital signal; a frame generator for generating and providing the sensor data converted to the digital signal per frame; and a sensor data converter comprising a Dynamic data Exchange Channel (DEC) for batch-processing the sensor data input from the frame generator per frame, in an XML format. The DEC of the sensor data converter defines a structure of the sensor data using a schema of the XML and converts the sensor data format to the XML format at the same time.
