Abstract
A communication system supporting communication for nodes of a vehicle (103) comprises wireless access points (203, 205) for communication using directional beams. Wireless modems (701, 703, 111, 113) of the vehicle (103) establish a mm wave radio communication link to an access point (203). The vehicle network transmits link indications to at least one of the access points (203, 205) where a link indication provides a link between a MAC address of a wireless modem (701, 703, 111, 113) and a vehicle identity indication for the vehicle (103). An air interface scheduler (1001) for an access point (201) performs MAC layer scheduling over mm wave radio communication links established for the access point (201) in response to the first vehicle identity indication.
