ABSTRACT:
A mobile unit communication control method is for exchanging information accurately between a plurality of responders and a questioner in a communication area without information drop-off. A ground unit constituting the questioner transmits an inquiry signal. A vehicle-mounted unit constituting the responder stores and returns the current time the vehicle-mounted unit first received the inquiry signal as a starting time. The ground unit selects a vehicle-mounted unit with the earliest starting time as an object of communication among a plurality of the vehicle-mounted units. A vehicle-mounted unit expected to pass the communication area at the earliest time is selected, and the ground unit transmits a response signal for handshaking with the particular vehicle-mounted unit, to which the vehicle-mounted unit replies. With the establishment of the handshake, data are exchanged between the ground unit and the vehicle-mounted unit.
