Abstract

A method (and system, apparatus, and computer product) for reporting traffic data includes, in an onboard unit installed in a vehicle, generating a traffic data report packet including information identifying a location of the vehicle in a traffic network and storing the generated traffic data report packet in a transmission queue. The onboard unit stores and maintains the generated traffic data report packet in the transmission queue with other traffic data report packets in a sequence in accordance with potential transmission times associated with each traffic data report packet. At least a portion of the traffic data report packets stored in the transmission queue is selectively transmitted, as a batch transmission to a traffic center server via a communication link.
