SDP High Level

The Radio or Telematics Unit (TU) is the bridge between vehicle functionality and the Service Delivery Platform (SDP). The TU provides the in-vehicle SDP software with a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) supporting either the required Java Specification Requests (JSR) or the Uconnect^® interfaces known as Kona Application Programming Interface (API) to deliver the desired set of applications and communication capabilities. The TU development environment uses the Java Connected Device Configuration (CDC). In conjunction with the JSRs, the environment for an authorized application provides a wide range of functions. The TU directly supports various applications as well as providing access to/from various applications and functions in the vehicle.
