The disclosure provides a method and a device in a communication node for wireless communication. The communication node first receives first information and second information, and then transmits a first radio signal in W1 time sub-window(s); the first information is used for determining X candidate time window(s), any one of the X candidate time window(s) has a time length equal to a first time length, and the first time length is fixed; for a subcarrier spacing of a subcarrier occupied by the first radio signal, one of the X candidate time window(s) comprises Y candidate time sub-window(s), and the Y is related to the subcarrier spacing of the subcarrier occupied by the first radio signal; the second information is used for indicating W candidate time sub-window(s) out of the Y candidate time sub-window(s); and each of the W1 time sub-window(s) is one of the W candidate time sub-window(s).

There is provided mechanisms for providing wireless network access to an external wide area network. A method is performed by a user terminal device. The method includes establishing a wireless connection to a gateway device located in a vehicle. The user terminal device is identified as a client to the gateway device. The user terminal device uses the gateway device as gateway for all data traffic exchanged between the user terminal device and the external wide area network. The method includes establishing wireless network access for the gateway device to the external wide area network. The gateway device is operatively connected to the external wide area network via the user terminal device. The user terminal device bridges all data traffic communicated between the gateway device and the external wide area network.

This application provide a vehicle communication method performed by an electronic toll collection (ETC) system. The ETC system includes an ETC roadside unit (RSU) and an ETC onboard unit (OBU), and the vehicle communication method includes: establishing, when an ETC OBU of any vehicle is detected, a connection between the ETC OBU and the ETC RSU; performing ETC billing on the vehicle through the ETC RSU after the ETC RSU establishes the connection with the ETC OBU; and performing, after the ETC RSU performs ETC billing, vehicle communication message interaction with the ETC OBU through the ETC RSU via the connection with the ETC OBU when the ETC OBU is still within a communication range of the ETC RSU.

A system for recording event data of an autonomous vehicle is disclosed. The present disclosure suggests an EDR system operation scheme suitable for properly investigating the cause of a vehicle accident. Subsystems of an autonomous driving control system may determine whether an event satisfying a preconfigured condition has occurred, and send to an EDR system a trigger signal to trigger recording of data elements related to the event when the occurrence of the event is detected. The EDR system may record data elements that are useful to reconstruct a map of an external environment surrounding an autonomous vehicle at the time of the occurrence of the event or to reconstruct an internal environment of the vehicle.
