A method for V2X communication. The method includes transmitting, via at least one V2X radio channel, at least one first V2X message object; receiving, via the at least one V2X radio channel, at least one feedback associated with a reception status of the at least one first V2X message object; deciding, based on the at least one feedback, whether to transmit at least one second V2X message object; and transmitting, via the at least one V2X radio channel, the at least one second V2X message object, if the decision indicates that the at least one second V2X message object is to be transmitted.

A method for providing an object message about an object, recognized in surroundings of a road user, in a communication network for communicating with other road users. The road user includes a sensor system for detecting the surroundings and an evaluation unit for evaluating sensor data generated by the sensor system and transferring object messages via the communication network. The method includes: receiving sensor data, generated by the sensor system, in the evaluation unit; recognizing at least one object in the surroundings of the road user based on the sensor data, a movement parameter and a further object parameter being ascertained; calculating an object transfer priority; determining, based on the object transfer priority, whether the recognized object is to be included in an object message; and, if so, generating the object message including the recognized object, and sending the object message via the wireless communication network.

A method for providing a maneuver message for coordinating a maneuver between a road user and at least one further road user in a communication network. The method includes: receiving the communication data and/or the sensor data in the evaluation unit; determining a possible trajectory of the road user based on the communication data and/or the sensor data, at least one trajectory parameter describing a property of the possible trajectory being ascertained; calculating a trajectory transfer priority from the trajectory parameter, the trajectory transfer priority representing a relevance of the at least one possible trajectory for the road user and/or the further road user; determining, based on the trajectory transfer priority, whether the at least one possible trajectory is to be included in a maneuver message; if so: generating the maneuver message including the at least one possible trajectory, and sending the maneuver message via the communication network.

Method for providing a maneuver message for coordinating a maneuver between a road user and at least one further road user in a communication network

A method for transferring a message in a communications network for communication between a road user and at least one further road user. The road user and the further road user each include an evaluation unit for transferring messages via the communications network. The method includes: receiving a first message in the evaluation unit, the first message including message segments, each including a priority value; determining an instantaneous capacity utilization of the communications network; filtering message segments to be transferred out of the first message, based on the priority values and the instantaneous capacity utilization of the communications network; and generating a second message including the message segments to be transferred, and sending the second message via the communications network.

The present invention relates to a method of cooperatively coordinating future driving maneuvers of a vehicle with fellow maneuvers of at least one fellow vehicle, wherein trajectories for the vehicle are rated with an effort value each, trajectories and fellow trajectories of the fellow vehicle are combined into tuples, the trajectory and the associated effort value of a collision-free tuple are selected as reference trajectory and reference effort value, trajectories with a lower effort value than the reference effort value are classified as demand trajectories, trajectories with higher effort value than the reference effort value are classified as alternative trajectories, and a data packet having a trajectory set consisting of the reference trajectory and the associated reference effort value as well as at least one trajectory from a group comprising the demand trajectories and the alternative trajectories as well as the respective effort values is transmitted to the fellow vehicle.

Method and device for a cooperative coordination between future driving maneuvers of one vehicle and the maneuvers of at least one other vehicle

The present invention relates to a method of cooperatively coordinating future driving maneuvers of a vehicle with fellow maneuvers of at least one fellow vehicle, wherein a fellow data packet is received from the fellow vehicle, in which a fellow trajectory set of a fellow reference trajectory is contained, a trajectory from a trajectory set for the vehicle is selected as a reference trajectory for the vehicle using the fellow reference trajectory, wherein a trajectory which is collision-free towards the fellow reference trajectory is selected, the trajectories of the trajectory set are rated using limit trajectories, and at least one cooperation trajectory is selected from the trajectories of the trajectory set using the reference effort value, wherein a data packet containing the reference trajectory and the cooperation trajectory is transmitted to the fellow vehicle.

A method is provided for correcting a positional probability distribution, at least two mobile systems each ascertaining a positional probability distribution through respective GNSS receivers, at least one mobile system ascertaining a distance to at least one second mobile system, the at least two mobile systems exchanging the ascertained positional probability distribution among themselves through a communication link, and by using the at least two ascertained positional probability distributions and the distance between the at least two mobile systems, an improvement of the positional probability distributions being calculated. Furthermore, a method for providing at least one correction term is provided.

A method is provided for maneuver planning and implementation for a vehicle by a vehicle-internal control unit. The control unit includes a strategic planning level for carrying out route planning, a tactical planning level for providing lane-accurate trajectories to possible destination points, and an operative planning level for selecting a destination point and a negotiable trajectory to the selected destination point. The planning levels have a cascading design. When each planning level is executed, an information exchange with neighboring vehicles is carried out via a communication link in order to ascertain collisions. When a collision is ascertained in at least one planning level, a maneuver coordination is carried out between the vehicles via the communication link. Moreover, a control unit is provided.

A plausibility check module for a vehicle driver assistance system, including at least one sensor for detecting the vehicle surroundings, and Kl-module(s) to classify objects in the surroundings based on the sensor data supplied by the sensor with an internal processing chain established by parameters, the plausibility check module receiving pieces of reference information about objects in the surroundings supplied by other vehicles and/or by an infrastructure, and comparing the pieces of reference information with the classification result by the Kl-module and to initiate at least one measure for a deviation established by the comparison, so that the parameters of the processing chain of the Kl-module are adapted to the effect that the deviation is reduced in comparable situations. Also described are a driver assistance system having the plausibility check module and Kl-module(s), a method for calibrating a sensor for detecting the vehicle surroundings, and an associated computer program.
