5 Wi-Fi features and main scenarios (FC6050W)

The Parrot module can either be configured as a Wi-Fi Access Point (AP), a Wi-Fi

station (client) or can be used in ad-hoc mode. As an access point, up to 8 devices can

be connected simultaneously.

The host is responsible for:

• enabling/disabling Wi-Fi

• configuring the security level (WEP, WPA, WPA2), and associated passes

• retrieving network information as needed (example: which users are connected)

The FC6050W manages the Wi-Fi network according to the host commands.

Regardless, the FC6050W is responsible for:

• taking care of low-level networking tasks

• keeping the host informed of networking events

There are a lot of different possible use cases, you’ll find below an overview of the main ones. For

more details, please refer to the part 14

The mobile device acts as a modem and provides the data to the module. DUN profile is

currently widely supported on the market.

PAN, personal area network

The mobile device supporting PAN-AP (access point) provides the data directly on Bluetooth

L2CAP layer in IP packets. The module acts as PAN-U (user).

NAD, network access device, optional feature

An external NAD can be integrated on the customer motherboard. Parrot module manages

Telephony, data call, SAP, Phonebook and messaging features of the NAD. All these

features are provided to the host using the same upper level commands. The Hardware

integration and monitoring are under the customer responsibility. NAD supplier choice shall

be jointly agreed with Parrot.

3G USB Dongle

Parrot currently supports over 200 3G dongles worldwide. Compatibility testing is done

continually to verify interoperability with new dongles on the market. Test teams are present

is in the US, Europe, Japan, Korea and China.

USB Tethering

As for DUN and PAN, the device acts as a modem and provides the data to the module over

USB. Feature availability is provider and OS dependant. Parrot currently supports Android,

iOS, RIM and Symbian OS.

Wi-Fi Tethering

Any mobile device supporting Wi-Fi access point feature can be used by Parrot module as

an additional internet source. This feature has to be enabled by the network provider.

6.2

Parrot router

In order to provide flexible network handling and configuration, Parrot developed a router

embedded on the FC6050.

It allows the host to connect any network interface available on the FC6050 (Wi-Fi, 3G

modem, DUN/PAN via BT, Tethering over USB, HOST). It is configurable through a user

friendly set of AT commands (Parrot’s HSTI) and makes it possible to enable internet

services (ftp, vnc, http, for example) on each interface.

6.3

Miscellaneous

The FC6050W needs to be informed of the provider’s DNS (Domain Name Server) IP

address. This information is transmitted to the FC6050W via an HSTI command.

Parrot's FC6050W does not do filtering (firewalling) on the host provided network

transactions, except what may be needed for its own safety. Hence, if some filtering must be

done for network operator or any other reason, it shall be done by the host. Thus, the host is

responsible for the incoming network traffic. Examples include blocking incoming

connections, restricting use to http and https protocols, forbidding POP/IMAP use, blocking

VOIP etc. (these examples come from common phone operator contractual regulations).

7 Host to FC6050B/W interface details

The architecture relies on 4 key features:

1. Using USB as a fast, standard physical medium – USB is used to exchange

commands, events, and user data between the host and Parrot's Wi-Fi enabled

FC6050W. A USB 2.0 High Speed link has a bandwidth of 480 Megabits per second

(60 Megabytes per second). Even with upper layer protocol overhead needed by the

USB physical medium, there is more than enough room for a quality network

connection. [As a point of reference, a typical PC network interface card (NIC) is

100Mbs. A full-blown heavy duty network server has 1000Mbs (1Giga bit per second)

NICs.]

2. Standard networking over USB protocols - Just as serial lines have been used as

the physical medium for networking for years (reference Point-to-Point Protocol), USB

can be used as the physical medium for standard TCP/IP networking. CDC ECM

(Communication Device Class, Ethernet Control Model) is the USB - Implementers

Forum standard for such use. Using such protocols, the USB connection appears to

the operating system as a Network Interface Card (NIC), ready to carry Ethernet

frames. From then on, all rich TCP/IP protocol stacks are available.

3. Parrot's HSTI library uses networking as its logical medium - The Parrot Host

Software Interface (HSTI) library (see section

) uses a network socket interface,

allowing command and event communication as on a network.

4. An inner, user-hidden network – This connection simply consists of just two nodes:

• the host processor

• Parrot’s Wi-Fi enabled OEM module.

The car information and entertainment system can be referred to as the host, and

Parrot's FC6050W module as the target. However, from a USB bus perspective (i.e.

according to USB standard terminology):

• the host is considered a “USB device”

• the Parrot's FC6050W target module is considered a “USB host”

The USB terminology of “USB host” and “USB device” does not interfere with the notion

of master / slave from a system perspective, but rather is a matter of hardware and

operating system stack configuration.

The networking architecture can be done using FC6050W as an USB device, and the

host as the USB host. However, in such a case, the use of USB media devices (for

example, MTP or USB flash drive with media files) cannot be done by the FC6050W,

even if a USB hub is used.

7.1

UART

Alternatively, if no USB port is available on the Host side, a serial port can be used to

control the FC6050 using Parrot’s HSTI command and control interface over UART.

7.2

Protocols used

Two types of protocols are used:

2. The Parrot's HSTI command and events protocol.

7.3

Standard networking over USB protocol for data transmission

The FC6050W handles a USB protocol named CDC ECM (Communication Device

Class, Ethernet Control Model) for networking over USB.

CDC ECM is the USB-Implementers Forum SIG standard for networking Ethernet over

USB. Widely used for cable DSL modem and USB-Ethernet dongles before the domestic

use of NIC became widespread, it has been an official part of the Linux OS since 2003.

CDC ECM goal is to use a USB connection to mimic NICs cards between a USB host

and a USB device, with their MAC and configurable IP addresses, able to convey any

Ethernet frames. These NICs can then be set up and used as any regular network card

would be. From a Linux application point of view, there isn’t any difference between a

USB CDC ECM network connection and a regular one. Actually, the Linux application is

not even aware of physical media used (USB rather Ethernet), since this media is hidden

behind the networking stack of the Linux OS.

RNDIS (Remote Network Driver Interface Specification) is Microsoft vendor-specific,

non-standard way to carry Ethernet over USB. Although RNDIS is not recommended,

RNDIS may be used as a replacement for CDC ECM.

8 Software interface, HSTI Library

The FC6050x software interface, HSTI Library, is defined by a high level command set

on top of Parrot Libraries.

This interface software is based on the HSTI commands defined by Parrot. These

commands are fully documented and the software library is provided by Parrot for easy

implementation in the host CPU.

Some commands are used to manage Bluetooth related functions like device pairing and

connection management as well as the acoustic and speech recognition functions.

Other commands are used to manage Music connected on USB ports.

The HSTI Command List and Bluetooth AT Command Software Specification are

available upon request.

The Bluetooth software stack, BLUES, supports Unicode, which allows the management

of language accents and allows for phonebook management in any language.

8.1

Parrot’s HSTI protocol for network connectivity

HSTI is Parrot's standard API used over its product range. It provides a rich yet simple,

fully documented set of more than 250 high-level commands to pilot the FC6050. The

host sends AT commands, and registers to events to be notified of changes occurring in

the FC6050.

HSTI is available and used on Linux operating system.

HSTI can be used over a network socket or a serial line (UART).

Some HSTI commands are specifically designed to handle network connectivity. For

examples, see the document “Parrot Host Software Interface Specification”. Some

networking commands are exemplified below.

The following steps are required in order for the host CPU to establish a dialog and take

command of the FC6050;

1. Setup the USB link to FC6050 as CDC ECM.

2. Configure this new Ethernet interface (IP address, netmask, broadcast address). For

ease of use, and since there is no added value in making these parameters dynamic,

these IP parameters should be fixed in the product (example 192.168.64.1) - to be

discussed with Parrot.

3. In the host application, open a standard internet socket. This socket will be used to

communicate with the FC6050 via HSTI. The port used for this socket should be a

fixed one, that does not interfere with any commonly used protocol (example value:

23000) – to be discussed with Parrot. From this point, regarding communication to

the FC6050, the host application will not have to care about networking any more.

The socket and USB network connection will be used transparently between the 2

CPUs to carry all HSTI dialog.

4. Register to HSTI events for notification. Events can either be responses from FC6050

to explicit host commands, or unsolicited, asynchronous events such as “new USB

stick insertion”, or “3G dongle insertion”.

5. The host can then send commands to the FC6050 using the HSTI API.

Regarding networking, some additional steps are required. As an example, if the internet

connectivity comes from a 3G dongle plugged into the FC6050 (see section 4, scenario

2):

• The FC6050 shall notify the host of the availability of the 3G dongle by sending an

event.

• If the host decides to enable the internet connection, it prompts the user, for the PIN

code. The prompt and PIN entry is done through the host user interface (screen and

keyboard or touch screen).

• The host sends the PIN code to the FC6050, via an HSTI command.

• The FC6050 manages the 3G dongle, and reports connection status to the host

(example: connection established, or PIN code rejected)

DATASHEET Confidential Information 19/84

Ref:

2009

009

Some things to notice:

• The host may choose to make the internet connection available to the FC6050 Wi-Fi

access point or not. In all cases, the host is in command to dynamically enable or

disable capabilities via the FC6050.

• If the internet connectivity comes from the host (section 4, scenario 1), then the DNS

IP address has to be sent to the FC6050, using the dedicated HSTI command.

• If the host requires internet connectivity for itself from the FC6050 (section 4, third

scenario), then it should do so explicitly and query the FC6050 for the DNS address,

again using the dedicated HSTI commands.

• Internet connectivity provided by the FC6050 (second and third use case) is not “all or

nothing”. It can be used for;

o Wi-Fi access point only

o host only

o both Wi-Fi access point and host use

o disabled

In all relevant cases, the internet networking traffic between the host and the FC6050 will

use the same network interface established before via USB CDC ECM to carry HSTI

commands. This is done transparently so that applications, either on host or on the

FC6050, do not need to handle it (unless of course the host application is willing to do

so).

As a benefit inherited from its rooted serial line interface, the network traffic generated by

the HSTI dialog is extremely low: a typical HSTI query or reply ends up in a dozen or

less bytes of payload. Thus, this HSTI traffic does not interfere with the network

bandwidth available to Wi-Fi users or the host.

Here is an example demonstrating a typical host-side HSTI sequence to setup Wi-Fi,

choose a security level and setup a Wi-Fi network name:

/* set the Wi-Fi “on”, Access Point mode : */

HSTI_CmdAPI_Send_WSWM(AP);

/* Send access point configuration : set the security protocol to WPA */

HSTI_CmdAPI_SendWAPC(SET, SECURITY, WPA);

/* Access point configuration : the SSID naming the Wi-Fi network is “my car network” */

HSTI_CmdAPI_SendWAPC_STR(SET, SSID, “my car network”);

motors, and climate control settings

• Simple command and control voice interfaces for AM/FM radio, TV/DAB channels

and CDs replace several button presses;

o “radio ninety seven point nine”

o “CD play track twelve”

10.2

Text To Speech (TTS)

Text to Speech (TTS) on FC6050B & FC6050W is based on SVOX Automotive Speech.

SVOX Automotive TTS solutions are tailored for noisy car environments and enjoy a

reputation for industry-leading quality. They power many of the most advanced and

successful in-dash infotainment systems in the market. SVOX TTS technology is

characterized by natural and clear sound as well as unique polyglot capability – the

same voice can speak multiple languages like a native speaker.

SVOX TTS is not limited in vocabulary. It can be used to confirm the orders identified by

a voice recognition process or for reading vehicle commands, songs titles or phonebook

entries.

Abbreviations, tags, symbols (emoticons) are converted into readable text (grapheme-to-

grapheme conversion). In addition, the SVOX TTS engine contains an advanced text

pre-processor that automatically handles common specifications for date and time.

SVOX provides an excellent quality prosody (i.e. sentence intonation) using state-of-the-

art prosody modelling technology. Accent values, phrase types, and phrase boundary

positions are taken into account for the determination of the speech melody (pitch

contour) and sound durations.

10.4

Voice Recognition for Music Data on external sources

10.4.1 RAP

RAP is an optional Parrot-developed voice recognition gateway. In combination with the

voice recognition option and the CONCERTOS software option it provides the user the

ability to select music on multiple external sources and to operate player functionalities

by voice commands. RAP allows recognition by album title, music type (genre) or artist

name regardless of where the media file resides.

The voice recognition latency is, on average, 1.8 seconds for a database size of 20,000

Albums or Artists. The latency can be improved by reducing the number of Albums or

Artists (~1s for 10 000). Based on trials with the French Parrot test database the voice

recognition accuracy is ~ 85 %.

The maximum number of recognizable items depends on the available memory.

10.4.2 Gracenote® for Music Data on external sources

Gracenote's technology is being relied on by many of the world's leading consumer

electronic devices and media software applications. Gracenote uses a multi-step

recognition method to enable identification, categorization, and organization of digital

music. Regardless of source or format, Gracenote gives music fans the tools to manage

and enjoy their music collections.

10.4.2.1 MediaVOCS TM

MediaVOCS, provided by Gracenote, is an advanced speech-based media database.

This database includes phonetic transcriptions for alternate artist, album and track

names. Even common names are often multiethnic, abbreviated or nicknames which

cannot be recognized by a standard voice recognition database. Based on Parrot

studies, adding Gracenote MediaVOCS to the voice recognition improves the recognition

rate by a factor of 33% on artist names and 16% on album names.

Gracenote MediaVOCS is available in the following languages:

US English

UK English

French

Italian

10.4.2.2 Playlist Plus

Parrot also offers an additional tool from Gracenote known as Playlist Plus

. Designed

to work with MediaVOCS, Playlist Plus analyzes the metadata for music brought into the

vehicle and offers a variety of playlists for the music library. These playlists may be

either pre-set or user customized. In addition, the user may select “More Like This” and

hear other songs in the music library of a similar genre to the song currently playing.

10.4.3 Natural Language Understanding (NLU)

The Parrot FC6XX0 product line offers an advanced voice recognition system based on

Grammar based NLU (Natural Language Understanding, VoCon3200 version 3.3 )

With NLU, the user has the ability to control various vehicle feature by voice without

"being constrained" by traditional voice recognition menu trees or categories (music,

phone book, ...).

All Parrot features and other vehicle functions can be controlled via voice from the press

of a single “push-to-talk” (PTT) button.

With NLU, the user can skip the step of narrowing the choices:

• Selection of Phone Number from Phonebook

• “I want to call John Smith”

• “Call John Smith”

• “Call John Smith at home”

• “Call Smith at the office”

• “Call John Smith on Mobile

• Selection of Music from Music Library

• “Play something from John Mayer”

• “Play Parachutes from Coldplay”

• “Play Bob Marley” [Note: this command works even though the official artist name is

“Bob Marley and the Whalers”]

• “Play Jazz”

• “Play Alternative”

• “Play Super Hits of Miles Davis

These are just a sample of what is possible with NLU.

Other features, not residing on the Parrot FC6XX0 module can also benefit from NLU.

This includes use cases such as tuning of a radio station or activating a rear-camera

image:

• “Tune to 97.1 Megahertz”

• “Tune to 950 AM”

• “Switch to FM”

• “Seek”

• “Play AM preset 3

The ADC gain must be set to 0dB by the Host SW via AT commands.

Furthermore the signal level of the microphone must be reduced by:

o 12dB with microphone with 670mV/Pa sensitivity

o 6dB with microphone with 300mV/Pa sensitivity

This can be done with a simple interface circuit. It is composed of a microphone bias circuit and a

We use a voltage divider (R1, R2) to reduce the signal. It is dimensioned as follows:

R1 + R2 ≈ 15kΩ,

in order to keep the impedance of the load much higher than 680Ω.

- 20. Log (R2 / (R1 + R2)) = AdB,

in order to attenuate the signal by AdB.

We recommend using those resistor values for correct attenuation so that we can adjust easily

FC6050B/W & Host

Connections Strategy

If the Host does not store the contact information from the last synchronization with the

phonebook, the information is available for the Host at the next Module start up.

Immediately after HFP connection (which is initiated with the last connected device), it is

possible to place an outgoing call if requested. Once HFP initialization has finished (end

of SLC/Extended SLC), the Module starts the best phonebook synchronization method

available for the paired and connected phone. The Module will alert the Host that the

phonebook synchronization is complete with new entries now available, and ready to be

displayed on the HMI.

If an incoming/outgoing call occurs during the phonebook synchronization process,

depending on the method of phonebook synchronization which is used, the process is

paused. Once the call is finished, the phonebook synchronization restarts from where it

has been stopped, and the call history is updated. This is transparent for the end user.

Calls Management

For incoming calls, the Caller ID data (received from phone via CLIP or CLCC) is sent to

the Host to be displayed on the HMI.

HFP indicators such as signal level, battery level and network provider are forwarded to

the Host to be displayed on the HMI. CIND/CIEV indicators or GSM AT Commands are

used for this purpose.

Service Continuity

This feature handles the audio management of a call when the module is powered

on/off:

When the module is powered on, the module automatically connects HFP to the

phone and establishes the communication ((e)SCO connection) through the speakers

during the SLC.

DATASHEET Confidential Information 57/84

Ref:

2009

009

When the module is powered off, the module transfers the audio to the phone

((e)SCO disconnection) and disconnects the Bluetooth link.

This process ensures the Host to be immediately ready to start Handsfree usage.

Three way calling / multiple calls management

Once a call is established, if a second incoming call occurs, here is how the Host should

handle the HMI:

Green button: takes the second incoming call as active, and put the first one on hold.

Press green button again to switch between the two calls.

Red button: hangs up the active call and takes the second one as active.

Full 3-way calling management (and multiparty calls) is optimized with phones

supporting HFP1.5. Parrot supports up to 7 calls at the same time for conference call

purposes.

With phones supporting HFP1.0 only, there are gaps in the specification such as:

When the user manages the calls from the phone interface, the phone does not

always notify the Module.

When the distant party who is on hold hangs up from its side, the phone does not

always notify the Module.

SCO forwarding feature (2 SCO)

The module is connected to a Headset and a phone at the same time. When requested

by the user, the Module is able to forward audio from the phone to the Headset.

Therefore, the communication is switched for privacy purpose. Two SCO channels are

opened by the Module.

Description of the behavior:

Incoming call:

Pick up from the HMI will pick up the call and establish one (e)SCO with the

phone and one with the Headset.

Hang up from the HMI will hang up the call and release the 2nd SCO.

Outgoing call:

Dialing from the HMI will place the call on the phone, and once the remote

party has picked up, one (e)SCO is established with the phone and one with

the Headset.

Hang up from the HMI will hang up the call and release the 2nd SCO.

A command is proposed on Parrot Module to handle the establishment of dual SCO,

depending on user need.

Multi HFP Feature

Parrot has developed the “Multi - HFP” feature, which enables the Module to handle two

Handsfree connections at the same time. This use case is useful for people having two

mobile phones, or when two users are in the car.

The Module is running phonebook synchronization on both phones, and each phone has

its own phonebook available for the Host (phonebooks are not merged).

HFP indicators are available for each phone.

Description of the behavior:

First example:

two phones (P1 and P2) are connected to HFP service. The host can

start dialing on P1, hang up call then start outgoing call on P2.

Second example:

the phone receives incoming call P1 on Module. After the end of

the first call from P1 the phone P2 can receive incoming call.

The multi HFP does not manage the calls of two phones at the same time.

AVHFP Feature

Most phones now support both HFP and A2DP Source/AVRCP TG. The most difficult

case is to correctly handle the AVHFP Feature (dual use of A2DP/AVRCP and HFP).

As there is no specification release by the Bluetooth SIG explaining how this multi-profile

use case should operate, a whitepaper has been issued by the A/V Working Group

(“

Simultaneous Use of HFP, A2DP, And AVRCP Profiles

”).

Basically, the Whitepaper states that the phone should handle the streaming restart

management once the call is finished (this is the main concern today):

Incoming call:

the AG should handle the streaming management:

Pause the streaming upon indication of incoming call.

Send to the HF the indicators (CIEV Call setup)

Then, the HF picks up the call with ATA, communication/SCO is established

Once finished (from AG or HF), the AG should restart streaming from where it

has been paused.

Outgoing call from HF (ATD):

the AG should also handle this in the same manner.

Nevertheless, most phones do not correctly implement the Whitepaper, and the

streaming does not always restart after the call. Parrot has developed a strategy that

automatically relaunches streaming in this case.

Song information availability

According to the AVRCP version supported by the music player (can be a phone or a

Bluetooth Music player), the Host is updated with the following information in order to

update its HMI.

AVRCP TG 1.0 (Category 1 – Music Players):

Mandatory commands:

Play and stop.

Optional Features:

Enhanced control: Next, Previous, Pause, FF, FW (most of the

phones/Players supporting AVRCP1.0 support those commands).

There are a lot of other features, but the phone/Bluetooth Music Players do

not implement these extended commands.

AVRCP CT 1.0 (Category 1 – Parrot Module):

At least one command of the specification is mandatory.

Parrot has decided to implement the full Player Control (events send to the phone):

Play, Pause, Stop, Next, Previous, Pause, FF, FW

AVRCP TG 1.3 (Category 1 – Music Players):

Mandatory commands:

Same as AVRCP TG 1.0.

Optional Features:

If the phone supports the Bluetooth SIG Vendor Unique Feature, only Title of

the Media is mandatory for Metadata. And Playback status and change of

current track shall be supported in this case.

Other important features for Metadata support are Name of the Artist, Name

of the Album, Genre...

AVRCP CT 1.3 (Category 2 – Parrot Module):

Mandatory commands:

Same as AVRCP CT 1.0.

Parrot optional features implemented:

Referring to the specification, all “List of Media Attributes” are supported to be

displayed on the car radio HMI.

According to the AVRCP version supported by the phone, the HMI should be

implemented with information provided by the Module: Player status / Metadata for the

current played song.

As member of AV Working Group, Parrot is involved with the development of those

specifications.

According to the various Bluetooth implementations on phones, here is the description of

what is possible (given no phone limitations):

DUN only:

In this case, the phone acts as a Gateway and the Module forwards the data

to the Host (Data Terminal).

HFP and DUN:

If an incoming call occurs during the data transfer, there are three phone-

dependent behaviors:



The call is established and data transfer continues without affecting

bandwidth.



The call is established and data transfer is stopped (AG gives priority

to HFP feature).



The remote caller reaches the voicemail of the connected phone

(phone limitation).

If an outgoing call is requested by the user, the behaviors above also apply.

These behaviors are described, phone by phone, in the Parrot Bluetooth Compatibility Matrix with all

tested phones.

14.2.2 IPod & iPhone use cases

The iPhone/iPhone3G can be used as a Bluetooth audio gateway and Music content at

the same time. In this case,

First, the user has to pair/connect their iPhone via Bluetooth to get the HFP features.

Once HFP connection has been established, they can connect their iPhone to the

dedicated iPod connector, and the Module handles the music browsing.

The user will have the Bluetooth HFP capacity and at the same time the possibility to

browse the iPod’s content.

Parrot Music Management

Once the USB flash stick is plugged in for the first time, the Module reads the USB stick content,

parses music files, and gives the Host the access to the file system. Once this first parsing is

finished, the Module re-parses music files, one by one, and builds the database using the

Metadata included in each file. The database is built according to this new parsing.

The Parrot Module provides the same set of commands for USB or iPods devices. The

implementation on the Host side is generic.

HFP and USB use at the same time

If a USB flash stick is plugged in while an HFP connection is already established with a phone,

this case is handled in two separate processes. Handsfree features are available while Concertos

is building the database in the background, without altering the Bluetooth link.

B/W) BT/USB/Wi-Fi software update

The firmware of Parrot modules can be updated in four different ways: by Bluetooth (when paired

with a Bluetooth-enabled laptop), by DUN, USB or UART.

The ability to update Parrot module software in the field is a very important feature of the

Parrot Module. This ensures better Bluetooth Compatibility with new phones, which are

continuously being released to the market. Some of these new phones need to have a

specific work-a-round when the Bluetooth specifications are not correctly implemented

on the phone (i.e. non-generic Bluetooth management).

Moreover, a major software update can include a new feature/profile (such as

AVRCP1.4 for instance) to give more compatibility or functionality to a car radio. This

software update can immediately be flashed (by Bluetooth, USB...) into your product

already out in the market.

User settings (paired devices, phonebooks...) are not erased during a software update.

connection (FC6050W). If an update is available on the server, the driver is then

prompted to launch the update process. (future method)

Secured software update mechanism

When the FC6050 software is updated, the new software is copied into the Module’s

flash memory but the previous software is not overwritten by this copy. During this

process, if an error occurs before the end of file transfer (Bluetooth disconnection, data

transfer stopped, USB Stick removed…), the Module will restart with the previous

software version.

The checksum of the new software is included into this new software. If the new file is

correctly written into the flash, when Module reboots, the new checksum is internally

calculated and compared to the checksum of this new software. If checksum are equal,

the new file will overwrite the previous one. During this process, if power supply is turned

off, the remaining data will continue to be written where it had been stopped at the next

boot.

14.4.5.2 Vehicle 2 Vehicle communication

Organizations in the US and Europe are actively working to create specifications which

would enable vehicle to vehicle (V2V) and vehicle to infrastructure (V2I) communication.

This technology can enhance safety by alerting the vehicle of hazards on the road

beyond what is visible.

Based upon the final specifications, an alternate RF chip, supporting a different

frequency, may be required to support this use case.

16 Interoperability management during mass production

One of the key benefits of implementing a Parrot solution is knowing the system will

have the same high level of compatibility Parrot is known for. In order to maintain the

highest level of interoperability, Parrot has set up the following process:

- Parrot procures almost all available mobile telephones which are each individually

tested.

- Local testing is done to account for variations in different carrier networks;

Europe, USA, China, Japan & Korea

- A software team of 8 engineers focuses on the development of new Bluetooth

profiles

- A dedicated software bug tracking system is used to allow testers around the

world to access test results

- A dedicated software development team is available for debugging, as required

- Automated test methods which allow unmanned testing of AT Command

interaction around the clock

There are two categories of phones used in testing:

1. Pilot phones (approved phones): Pilot phones are tested using the tier 1 product.

This testing is done by the carmaker or Tier1. This usually includes 10 to 20

phones per region, depending on the market.

2. Compatible Phones: Compatibility Phone testing is done at the Parrot module

level with approximately 500 phones per year worldwide.

Approved phones are typically highlighted by the tier 1 customer in their marketing

material and customer-facing communication as examples of phones which exhibit

highly compatible features. Compatible phones may include the “pilot phones” and are

published in the “compatibility matrix” issued four times per year.

The following sections are intended to give you further insight pertaining to the dedicated

process.

16.1

Blues interoperability testing (compatible phones)

•

Compatibility testing (done continually):

Compatibility testing is done continually to verify interoperability with the Parrot Blues

software. This testing is done in the US, Europe, Japan, Korea and China. Phones are

targeted for testing according to the following criteria;

•

All phones that are less than 18 months old

•

All popular phones (even if they are older than 18 months old)

Pilot phone testing process for new BLUES releases (done per release):

16.2

Pilot phone testing of the gateway (Final product)

All phones tested during the Compatibility Testing process described above don’t need

to be retested on the final tier 1 product (gateway). A set of pilot phones, generally

around 10, are selected based on the set of features used in the product and phones

which support those features. If this set of pilot phones work properly with the gateway,

the HMI can be considered successfully validated for all phones with the same result

found in Parrot’s compatibility matrix.

The following steps are required to complete the pilot phone testing of the gateway:

•

The customer will provide the set of AT commands they have implemented to control

the HMI and communicate with the Parrot software (or module).

•

The customer will also provide flow charts showing how the AT commands are

implemented according to planned use cases.

•

After review of the AT Command flow charts, Parrot will provide the list of pilot

phones that support the Gateway features and thus generate all AT commands and

events used in the HMI through the Gateway.

If new features are added later and a new AT command is needed, the pilot phone

testing of the gateway should be repeated with a new set of pilot phones that exercise

that new AT command:

The pilot phones testing is the responsibility of the tier 1 or the car maker using phones

approved by Parrot according to the steps described above.
