Selective antenna allocation
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method for selective antenna allocation in a vehicle, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a processing device, a first request for an antenna from a first transceiver;
receiving, by the processing device, a second request for the antenna from a second transceiver; and
selectively allocating, by the processing device, the antenna to either the first transceiver or the second transceiver based on the higher of a priority of the first transceiver and a priority of the second transceiver and based on an operating mode of the vehicle, the operating mode of the vehicle being sent via a signal from the vehicle to the processing device.

Abstract
Examples of techniques for selective antenna allocation are disclosed. In one example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a computer-implemented method may include receiving a first request for an antenna from a first transceiver. The method may further include receiving a second request for the antenna from a second transceiver. Additionally, the method may include selectively allocating the antenna to one of the first transceiver or the second transceiver based on the higher of a priority of the first transceiver and a priority of the second transceiver.

8. A system for selective antenna allocation in a vehicle, the system comprising:
-
an antenna configured to transmit and receive data over a range of frequencies; a plurality of transceivers, wherein each of the plurality of transceivers is configured to transmit and receive data over a subset of the range of frequencies; and an antenna selection module configured to selectively allocate the antenna to one of the plurality of transceivers based on at least one of a priority of the transceiver and an operating mode of the vehicle, the operating mode of the vehicle being sent to the antenna selection module via a signal from the vehicle, the operating mode of the vehicle being selected from the group consisting of a driving mode, a parked mode, and an emergency mode. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)
