Abstract
A vehicle communication system that provides data between various objects (i.e., devices) within a vehicle communication network is disclosed. In one or more implementations, the vehicle communication system includes an accessor interface module that receives data encoded in an automotive connectivity communication protocol from another accessor module. The other accessor module is associated with an originating object within a vehicle communication network. The data encoded in the automotive connectivity communication protocol includes an object data portion defining a domain associated with a destination object and a payload data portion. The domain has a corresponding authentication protocol for authenticating the data. The accessor interface module authenticates the data according to the authentication protocol. The vehicle communication system also includes an object-specific protocol encoder module that determines an object-specific communication protocol associated with the destination object. The object-specific communication protocol encodes the payload data portion according to the object-specific communication protocol.
