(Example)

The WCDMA module can deliver general voice data and multimedia data information much faster than conventional CDMA methods. By using such a point, various device information connected in a vehicle can be delivered to a vehicle management service company, so that a vehicle body diagnosis and high quality service can be provided.

First, MOST communication is a protocol designed to connect multimedia device devices in a vehicle. Therefore, a camera module, an infrared sensor that can measure a short distance, and a radar device that can measure a long distance can be connected in a vehicle. Such information may be checked in a vehicle through a digital display device in a vehicle, but a service company that wants to provide various services to a user by using the information may provide the following services. First assume that the driver is not in the space where the vehicle is located. This means that the vehicle is parked at some point.

In addition, the WCDMA service module 220 may perform wireless communication using a mobile communication network. The WCDMA communication module 310 is embedded therein to use a general mobile communication network.

In addition, the WCDMA service module 220 periodically transmits vehicle information to the service provider 210 through a mobile communication network, and the information is stored in the vehicle information database 260 of the service provider 210. When the user or driver requests information required by the user, the service provider 210 transmits real-time traffic information and various vehicle information through the wireless communication antenna based on the information of the corresponding vehicle stored in the vehicle information database 260. Transmit to device 230. The information that the service provider 210 transmits to the ECU device 230 is provided from the content database 250 connected to the service provider 210.

The WCDMA service module 220 receives GPS information transmitted from a GPS satellite (not shown) through a GPS antenna (not shown).

The ECU system 230 receives various vehicle information received from various sensors, such as a speed sensor, a steering sensor, a wheel sensor, and a camera mounted on the vehicle, and is received from the ECU system 230. Various vehicle information is transmitted to the WCDMA service module 220.

The WCDMA service module 220 transmits input vehicle information, GPS information received through the GPS antenna, and data requested by the user to the service provider 210 through the WCDMA communication module 310.

When connected to the network through the WCDMA communication module 310, the service provider 210 provides additional services of various vehicles through the connected network.

The service provider 210 receiving the various vehicle information, the GPS information, and the data requested by the user through the WCDMA communication module 310 searches for an optimal route to the destination of the driving vehicle based on the received information. The information requested by the user is processed and transmitted to the user.

Then, the WCDMA service module 220 reads the map data transmitted from the service provider 210 and displays the received GPS information on a display (not shown) to perform vehicle navigation and obtain other necessary information.

For example, various types of information such as total driving distance, current speed, current position, engine oil condition, tire condition, fuel condition, brake oil change time, etc. may be collected in the vehicle. .

The function is controlled in the ECU system 230 via the CAN, the MOST or the FlexRay communication using various sensors and processing devices mounted in the vehicle.

In addition, the ECU system 230 controls all the components so that the vehicle multimedia functions such as navigation functions, AV functions, and wireless communication functions necessary for driving the vehicle can be performed smoothly.

In this case, the service provider 210 providing a service to a vehicle individually accesses a vehicle having an individual ID, obtains current state information of the vehicle, and provides various services to the user based on the information.

For example, how much fuel is left now, re-fuel within a certain mileage, what is the total distance traveled, when was the last engine oil change date, or when the message to change the engine oil by the next day? Of course, various other multimedia contents can be provided.

When the user approaches the WCDMA service module 220 using the terminal 240, only pure payload data received from the terminal is transmitted using the fluxray network communication protocol.
