Abstract

An apparatus that includes a policy acquisition circuit, a parameter acquisition circuit, and a vehicle data transmission circuit. The policy acquisition circuit interprets a vehicle policy data value comprising at least one requested vehicle property. The parameter acquisition circuit interprets a plurality of vehicle parameter values, responsive to the at least one requested vehicle property, from a plurality of providing end points, each of the plurality of providing end points on at least one network zone of a vehicle. The vehicle data transmission circuit selectively transmits at least a portion of a collected vehicle data.

Claims (54)

1 . An apparatus comprising:

a policy acquisition circuit structured to interpret a vehicle policy data value comprising at least one requested vehicle property;

a parameter acquisition circuit structured to interpret a plurality of vehicle parameter values, responsive to the at least one requested vehicle property, from a plurality of providing end points, each of the plurality of providing end points on at least one network zone of a vehicle; and

a vehicle data transmission circuit structured to selectively transmit at least a portion of a collected vehicle data.

2 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to selectively transmit the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data by selecting a transmission interval for the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data.

3 . The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to select the transmission interval in response to at least one of:

an interval provided in the vehicle policy data value;

an interval responsive to an availability description for transmitting resources for the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data;

an interval responsive to a historical transmission availability for the vehicle; or

an operating condition of the vehicle.

4 . The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to select the transmission interval in response to an interval responsive to a priority of the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data.

5 . The apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the priority relates to a requesting entity.

6 . The apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the priority relates to transmission of collected data.

7 . The apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the priority relates to at least one of:

a data type;

an associated flow;

an associated application;

an associated vehicle function;

a requesting end point;

a providing end point;

a providing entity;

processing of collected data; or

storage of collected data.

8 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to selectively transmit the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data based at least in part on an amount of the collected vehicle data.

9 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to selectively transmit the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data in response to when the amount of the collected vehicle data exceeds a threshold.

10 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to selectively transmit the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data by selecting a bandwidth utilization for the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data.

11 . The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to select the bandwidth utilization in response to at least one of:

a bandwidth utilization provided in the vehicle policy data value;

a bandwidth utilization responsive to a priority of the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data;

a bandwidth utilization responsive to an availability description for transmitting resources for the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data;

an interval responsive to a historical transmission availability for the vehicle; or

an operating condition of the vehicle.

12 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to selectively transmit the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data by selecting a transmission interval in response to a data type of the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data.

13 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to selectively transmit the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data in response to a vehicle operational impact of transmission operations.

14 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to selectively transmit the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data in response to a power utilization impact of transmission operations.

15 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to selectively transmit the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data in response to a data transmission capacity value.

16 . The apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the data transmission capacity value comprises at least one data transmission capacity value selected from the values consisting of:

a data transmission capacity associated with a time interval;

a data transmission capacity associated with an entity related to the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data;

a data transmission capacity associated with an access point name;

a data transmission capacity associated with a flow related to the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data;

a data transmission capacity associated with an application of the vehicle related to the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data; or

a data transmission capacity associated with a vehicle function related to the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data.

17 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to selectively transmit the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data in response to a currently available transmission type.

18 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to selectively transmit the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data by selecting a data transmission chunk size for the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data.

19 . The apparatus of claim 18 , wherein the data transmission chunk size comprises at least one of an individual message size or a single transmission flow size.

20 . The apparatus of claim 18 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to select the data transmission chunk size in response to at least one of:

a data transmission chunk size provided in the vehicle policy data value;

a data transmission chunk size responsive to a priority of the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data;

a data transmission chunk size responsive to an availability description for transmitting resources for the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data;

a data transmission chunk size responsive to a historical transmission availability for the vehicle; or

an operating condition of the vehicle.

21 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to adjust the selectively transmitting the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data in response to a success parameter for transmitting operations.

22 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle data transmission circuit is further structured to adjust the selectively transmitting the at least a portion of the collected vehicle data in response to a quality of service parameter for transmitting operations.
