Abstract

A wireless communication system is mounted on a mobile body, and includes: a master device; and a slave device that performs a wireless communication with the master device while switching a frequency channel. The master device determines whether the frequency channel is available. The master device reflects a result of frequency channel availability determination in a use of the frequency channel.

Claims (30)

1 . A wireless communication system mounted on a mobile body, the system comprising:

a master device; and

a slave device configured to perform a wireless communication with the master device while switching a frequency channel,

wherein

in response to switching of at least one of a state of the mobile body or a surrounding environment state of the mobile body from a first state to a second state, the master device is configured to determine whether the frequency channel is available based on a change amount of an index indicating a communication quality,

the communication quality is a communication quality in a period between a switching timing from the first state to the second state and a predetermined timing before the switching timing, and

the master device is configured to reflect a result of frequency channel availability determination in a use of the frequency channel.

2 . The wireless communication system according to claim 1 , wherein

an electric field distribution of a communication environment changes depending on at least one of a physical quantity indicating a state of the mobile body or a physical quantity indicating a state of a surrounding environment of the mobile body.

3 . The wireless communication system according to claim 2 , wherein

the physical quantity indicating the state of the mobile body is a speed of the mobile body.

4 . The wireless communication system according to claim 2 , wherein

the physical quantity indicating the state of the mobile body is a movement distance of the mobile body.

5 . The wireless communication system according to claim 2 , wherein

the at least one of the physical quantity indicating the state of the mobile body or the physical quantity indicating the state of the surrounding environment is at least one of a temperature of the mobile body or a temperature of an external atmosphere.

6 . The wireless communication system according to claim 2 , wherein

the physical quantity indicating the state of the mobile body is vibration of the mobile body.

7 . The wireless communication system according to claim 2 , wherein

the physical quantity indicating the state of the surrounding environment is humidity.

8 . The wireless communication system according to claim 1 , wherein

the index is a packet error rate.

9 . The wireless communication system according to claim 1 , wherein

the index is a reception signal strength.

10 . A wireless communication system mounted on a mobile body, the system comprising:

one or more first processors;

one or more second processors;

a second memory coupled to the one or more second processors and storing program instructions that when executed by the one or more second processors cause the one or more second processors to at least: perform a wireless communication with the one or more first processors while switching a frequency channel; and

a first memory coupled to the one or more first processors and storing program instructions that when executed by the one or more first processors cause the one or more first processors to at least:

in response to switching of at least one of a state of the mobile body or a surrounding environment state of the mobile body from a first state to a second state, determine whether the frequency channel is available based on a change amount of an index indicating a communication quality, wherein the communication quality is a communication quality in a period between a switching timing from the first state to the second state and a predetermined timing before the switching timing; and

reflect a result of frequency channel availability determination in a use of the frequency channel.
