Priority is claimed on Japanese Patent Application No. 2020-003012, filed Jan. 10, 2020, the content of which is incorporated herein by reference.
The present invention relates to a communication device, a base station, and a communication system.
Conventionally, technology for connecting to a plurality of access points on the basis of position information or predetermined setting information of a vehicle or switching an access point of a connection destination so that stable communication is performed between the vehicle and an external device via a network is known (for example, International Publication No. WO2017/204232, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application, First Publication No. 2016-63337, and Japanese Unexamined Patent Application, First Publication No. 2018-74329).
However, it may not be possible to perform efficient data transmission and reception according to a connected state associated with a plurality of access points.
Aspects of the present invention have been made in consideration of such circumstances and an objective of the present invention is to provide a communication device, a base station, and a communication system capable of implementing more efficient data transmission and reception.
A communication device, a base station, and a communication system according to the present invention adopt the following configurations.
權(quán)利要求
What is claimed is:1. A communication device comprising:a processor that executes instructions to: perform communication with a base station and a plurality of access points having narrower communication ranges than the base station; acquire vehicle information from in-vehicle equipment; acquire information about communication quality for each of the plurality of access points; and release a connected state associated with a determined access point when the access point whose connected state is released is determined on the basis of the information about the communication quality acquired when communication with the plurality of access points is in the connected state. 2. The communication device according to claim 1 ,wherein each of the plurality of access points is connected to the base station and wherein the processor generates a connection release request for releasing the connected state associated with the access point when the access point whose connected state is released is determined and causes the generated connection release request to be transmitted to the base station. 3. The communication device according to claim 1 , wherein the processor further executes instructions to:acquire a communication requirement for each piece of the vehicle information, and determine the access point whose connected state is released on the basis of the communication requirement. 4. The communication device according to claim 1 , wherein the processor further executes instructions to determine the access point whose connected state is released among a plurality of access points in the connected state on the basis of delay information of communication with the access point included in the communication quality. 5. The communication device according to claim 1 , wherein the processor further executes instructions to determine an access point for performing communication in a predetermined communication scheme as the access point whose connected state is released when the plurality of access points perform communication with the communication device in different communication schemes. 6. A base station comprising:a processor that executes instructions to: perform a first wireless communication with a vehicle located within a first communication range; perform communication with a plurality of access points that perform a second wireless communication with the vehicle in a second communication range narrower than the first communication range; and perform a predetermined process on the basis of information received in the first wireless communication and in the second wireless communication, wherein, when a connection release request for releasing a connected state associated with at least one access point among a plurality of access points connected to the vehicle has been received in the first communication, the processor causes the connected state between the access point associated with the connection release request and the vehicle to be released via the second wireless communication. 7. A communication system including a base station and a communication device mounted in a vehicle,wherein the communication device comprising: a first processor that executes instructions to: perform communication with a base station and a plurality of access points having narrower communication ranges than the base station; acquire vehicle information from in-vehicle equipment; acquire information about communication quality for each of the plurality of access points; and release a connected state associated with a determined access point when the access point whose connected state is released is determined on the basis of the information about the communication quality acquired when communication with the plurality of access points is in the connected state, wherein the base station comprising: a second processor that executes instructions to: perform a first wireless communication with the vehicle located within a first communication range; perform communication with a plurality of access points that perform second wireless communication with the vehicle in a second communication range narrower than the first communication range; and perform a predetermined process on the basis of information received in the first wireless communication and in the second wireless communication, and wherein, when a connection release request for releasing a connected state associated with at least one access point among a plurality of access points connected to the vehicle has been received in the first communication, the second processor causes the connected state between the access point associated with the connection release request and the vehicle to be released via the second wireless communication.
