Adapting GENIVI and Android for IoT-Automotive

Abstract

The Internet of Things is breaking crisp ground for auto producers by acquainting altogether new layers with the customary idea of an auto. This update — the associated, savvy auto — comes as a progressive route for us to drive and keep in contact with the world around in the meantime. By offering a favor free assortment of infotainment benefits and associated auto applications for drivers, the car business can possibly turn into an IoT champion among different ventures and fuel the IoT cloud administrations reception among auto proprietors and walkers alike.Now when we talk about IoT automotive industry is the major contributor of it.Recent statistics shows that Android OS is more used in automotive.Latest Android Os for auto is more likely the concept on which i am working.Where GENIVI is the alliance which is providing open source platform for android developers.In this project I have used Android Oreo based HIKEY960 platform for implementation and Broadcom 89359(4359) wifi chip which we would be plugged into this platform.As Android is mostly used OS in any device and also user-friendly and open source.Latest version of android, Oreo has so many changes related to vendor implementation.So initially, we do make our driver compatible to this android version. After loading of driver and firmware as a inbuilt module.On Successfully loading of the driver do svc wifi enable(start the wifi service),Staring on the service interface registration would happen and then start the wpa_supplicant in the background which will run as a deamon. WPA_supplicant will talk to lower layer driver and upper layer (android framework) via HIDL(HAL interface definition language). This Android project solves the problem of wireless connectivity in car's using Wi-Fi functionality and added features like RSDB.In Vehicle, Wi-Fi router providing simultaneously internet access and high bandwidth link on two different bands 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz.So users can run display sharing in 5 GHz band radio while providing uninterrupted internet access on the other band simultaneously.
