A first on-board terminal for radio communication in a radio network. The first on-board terminal is designed to retransmit first data via the radio channel after the expiration of a second time period, which begins after the end of the previous transmission of the first data, if the radio channel is not occupied after the expiration of a first time period.

A system may include a mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) including nodes. The nodes may include beacon-based clusterhead (BB-CH) nodes and members. Each of the nodes may be configured to transmit communication data packets and transmit beacons. Each of the nodes may have passive spatial awareness. For each of at least some of the BB-CH nodes having members, a BB-CH node may be configured to compile spatial awareness information of all members of the BB-CH node. The compiled spatial awareness information may include a BB-CH node identification, position-location information (PLI) of the BB-CH node, a quantity of the members, and a member list with PLI. For each of the at least some of the BB-CH nodes, the BB-CH node may be configured to broadcast, via efficient flooding, some or all of the compiled spatial awareness information to every connected node.

A head unit of a vehicle is capable of defining a policy about conversion of interworking means between the vehicle and a mobile device and controlling conversion of the interworking means according to the defined policy to thereby minimize a delay generated upon conversion and to provide a service without interruption. A vehicle includes the head unit and a method of controlling the vehicle includes the head unit. The head unit of a vehicle interworking with a mobile device comprises: a communication interface including a wired communication module and a wireless communication module; a display configured to display an image corresponding to a video signal transmitted from the mobile device through the communication interface; and a controller configured to determine, if a new interworking request is received when the head unit interworks with the mobile device, whether the interworking with the mobile terminal is wired interworking through the wired communication module or wireless interworking through the wireless communication module. The controller is configured to determine whether to allow or disallow the new interworking request according to the determination.

Pathside communication relay (PCR) for collecting and distributing pathside data among client devices. The PCR collects client data from client devices (such as vehicles, pedestrians, and roadside infrastructure) and sensor data from sensors. The PCR processes the collected client data and sensor data and generates pathside data to be distributed among the client devices. In some examples, the PCR includes wireless telecommunication circuitry for distributing the pathside data over dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) signals using the Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments (WAVE) protocol and/or Cellular-Vehicle to everything (Cellular-V2X) communications. The pathside data can include location data of client devices and other objects, ambient conditions, traffic data, and other information to facilitate improved decision-making (such as collision avoidance) by client devices.

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for determining locations of wireless nodes in a network architecture are disclosed herein. In one example, a system for localization of nodes in a wireless network architecture, comprises a wireless node having a wireless device with one or more processing units and RF circuitry for transmitting and receiving communications in the wireless network architecture; and a plurality of wireless sensor nodes having a wireless device with a transmitter and a receiver to enable bi-directional communications with the wireless node in the wireless network architecture.
