Abstract
A vehicle signal relay system enables a relay agent in a first zone of a vehicle to send sensor signals having a first link-layer communication protocol to a software application deployed on a compute unit in another zone of the vehicle that is connected using another link-layer communication protocol. The vehicle signal relay system allows the software application to identify target relay agents with access to needed sensor signals. The vehicle signal relay system may further enable one way or mutual attestation. The vehicle signal relay system may also allow filters to be applied to the subscribed vehicle sensor signals, and may allow the software application to determine a communication protocol to be used between the software application and the relay agent.
