Method and system for pulling information from a mobile vehicle within a mobile vehicle communications system
A system and method is directed to obtaining information from a mobile vehicle within a mobile vehicle communication service. The method provides creating a mobile vehicle contact list based on an information request, determining a time period to transmit the mobile vehicle contact list and the information request, transmitting the mobile vehicle contact list and the information request to the mobile vehicle at the determined time period, and receiving the information from the mobile vehicle, at a specified time, based on the information requested. The system further provides means for creating a vehicle contact list based on the information request, means for determining a time period to transmit the mobile vehicle contact list and the information request, means for transmitting the mobile vehicle contact list and the information request to the mobile vehicle at the determined time period, and means for receiving the information, at a specified time, from the mobile vehicle based on the information requested.
1. A method for obtaining information from a mobile vehicle within a mobile vehicle communication service, the method comprising:
creating at least one mobile vehicle contact list based on at least one information request;
determining at least one time period to transmit the mobile vehicle contact list and the information request;
transmitting the mobile vehicle contact list and the information request to the mobile vehicle, utilizing a satellite radio service, at the at least one determined time period; and
receiving the information from the mobile vehicle based on the information requested,
wherein the method of determining at least one time period to transmit the mobile vehicle contact list comprises
analyzing one or more portions of the information to be obtained to determine a timing element for each portion;
associating a time period with each timing element;
comparing period with a current mobile vehicle communication service time period;
releasing for transmission the one or more portions of the information to be obtained possessing an associated time period matching the current mobile vehicle communication service time period; and
delaying the one or more portions of the information to be obtained not possessing an associated time period matching the current mobile vehicle communication service time period.
2. A method for obtaining information from a mobile vehicle within a mobile vehicle communication service, the method comprising:
creating at least one mobile vehicle contact list based at least one information request;
determining at least one time period to transmit the mobile vehicle contact list and the information request;
transmitting the mobile vehicle contact list end the information request to the mobile vehicle, utilizing a satellite radio service, at the at least one determined time period; and
receiving the information from the mobile vehicle based on the information requested,
wherein transmitting information from the mobile vehicle comprises
analyzing the information request, at the mobile vehicle, to determine a timing priority for each portion of the information request;
associating the timing priority for each portion of the information request;
comparing each associated priority with a current mobile vehicle communication service call volume;
releasing for transmission, from the mobile vehicle, the one or more portions of the information to be obtained possessing a specified priority; and
delaying transmission of the one or mare portions of the information to be obtained not possessing the specified priority.
3. A system for obtaining information from a mobile vehicle within a mobile vehicle communication service comprising:
means for creating at least one vehicle contact list based on at least one information request;
means for determining at least one time period to transmit the mobile vehicle contact list and the information request;
means for transmitting the mobile vehicle contact list and the information request to the mobile vehicle, utilizing a satellite radio service, at the at least one determined time period; and
means for receiving the information from the mobile vehicle based on the information requested,
wherein the means for determining at least one time period to transmit the mobile vehicle contact list comprises
means for analyzing one or more portions of the information to be obtained to determine a timing element for each portion;
means for associating a priority for each timing element;
means for comparing each associated time period with a current mobile vehicle communication service time period;
means for releasing for transmission the one or more portions of the information to be obtained possessing an associated time period matching the current mobile vehicle communication service time period; and
means for delaying the one or more portions of the information to be obtained not possessing an associated time period matching the current mobile vehicle communication service timed period.
