Abstract:
A self-synchronization device and system for vehicles is provided that facilitates the synchronization of traffic at one or more intersections within a designated synchronization space. Generally, the self-synchronization device comprises: (a) a GPS component for receiving location information; (b) a first DSRC radio for providing a control channel inside a designated synchronization cell; (c) a second DSRC radio for a service channel inside the designated synchronization cell; and (d) a third DSRC radio for a long-range communication channel between a plurality of designated synchronization cells. The self-synchronization device and system are configured to synchronize traffic conditions between vehicles in a designated synchronization space so that each vehicle may move through an intersection without a traffic signal or any other external traffic regulating agent.

Claim (Index 17):
A self-synchronization system for vehicles, the self-synchronization system comprising:\n (a) a memory device for storing data; and (b) a processor communicatively coupled to the memory device, wherein the processor may be programmed to:\n (i) obtain contextual data from a GPS component in a self-synchronization device of a vehicle when the vehicle enters a synchronization space; \n (ii) establish a cell master vehicle in the synchronization space; \n (iii) register the vehicle with the cell master vehicle via a first radio of the self-synchronization device if the vehicle is not established as the cell master vehicle; \n (iv) communicate the contextual data to other vehicles present within the synchronization space via a second radio of the self-synchronization device; \n (v) receive comparative contextual data from the other vehicles present within the synchronization space via the second radio of the self-synchronization device; \n (vi) transmit the contextual data and the comparative contextual data to other synchronization spaces via a third radio in the self-synchronization device if the vehicle is established as the cell master vehicle; \n (vii) formulate a traffic schedule based on the contextual data and the comparative contextual data if the vehicle is established as the cell master vehicle; and \n (viii) provide driving instructions to the vehicle in the synchronization space based on the traffic schedule.
