A method for providing accident parameters to a person outside a vehicle after an accident includes ascertaining a first accident parameter that is representative of the severity and/or a consequence severity using a control unit of the vehicle, and determining a display device of the vehicle that can display the first accident parameter following the accident. The first accident parameter is provided on the determined display, and a second accident parameter that is representative of the severity and/or the accident consequence severity is ascertained. The method also includes receiving a release signal for the second accident parameter from the person outside the vehicle following the accident involving the vehicle, and verifying the release signal for the second accident parameter using the control unit of the vehicle. The second accident parameter is provided on the determined display if the release signal was successfully verified by the control unit of the vehicle.

In a method for conducting communications, a first terminal device in a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) network sends a first request message to a server of the V2V network to request the server to allocate an encryption key corresponding to a first service. The first request message includes an identifier of the first service and an identifier of the first terminal device. The first terminal device receives from the server a first response message that includes an encryption key corresponding to the first service. The first terminal device uses the encryption key to encrypt first information related to the first terminal device in the V2V network, and broadcasts a broadcast message that includes the encrypted first information to the V2V network.

A vehicle may transmit, to a network entity, a lane use request message associated with a lane for the vehicle. The network entity may identify lane information associated with a lane for a vehicle. The network entity may identify vehicle information associated with the vehicle. The network entity may transmit, to the vehicle, and the vehicle may receive, from the network entity, a lane use grant message based on at least one of the identified lane information or the identified vehicle information. The lane use grant message may be indicative of a permission for the vehicle to use the lane. The vehicle may not be permitted to use the lane without the permission. The lane may correspond to a flexible direction lane, an emergency lane, a road shoulder, an HOV lane, or a passing lane.

Establishing, by a mobile terminal, a near field communication link to a vehicle, where the vehicle corresponds to the in-vehicle system; negotiating a login binding code with the vehicle through the near field communication link; and providing the login binding code to a network side device, where the login binding code is used by the network side device to verify whether the in-vehicle system can be logged in to with the first user account.

Provided is a roadside unit including: communication circuitry, which, in operation, receives data transmitted from an on-board unit and transfers the data to a server; and control circuitry, which, in operation, suspends, in a case where the communication circuitry has received an upload resume request for the data from the on-board unit while the data is being transferred to the server, transfer of the upload resume request to the server.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, an apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) may transmit, to at least one vehicle UE, in accordance with a first update rate, a first set of position messages indicating position information associated with the UE. The apparatus may transmit a second set of position messages in accordance with a second update rate. Numerous other aspects are provided.

A computer implemented method for managing charge availability of a charge unit (CU) to obtain charge for a battery of an electric vehicle (EV) is provided. The CU includes a computer for processing at least part of the method and for communicating with a server over a network. The method includes receiving, by the server, status information from the computer of the CU. The method includes sending to the computer of the CU instructions to make a reservation for the CU. The reservation is for a user account that has requested a desire to charge the battery of the electric vehicle of the user at the CU or another CU. The method includes sending, by the server, a confirmation for the reservation to the user account. The confirmation is viewable via a device having access to the server via the user account. The method includes sending, by the server, a data regarding a time of availability of the CU to the user account for the reservation. The computer of the CU is configured to display a visual indicator regarding the reservation of the CU.

At least a method for determining risk behavior of a driver is described. While a vehicle is being driven, data is obtained related to the position and movement of a wireless communications device. The data may indicate the type of behavior exhibited by the driver while the vehicle is being driven.
