Abstract

Vehicle collisions can be mitigated by cooperative actions by three separate computers: a mobile processor in a vehicle, a workstation in a roadside access point, and a remote supercomputer. By exchanging 5G or 6G messages, the computers can cooperatively test a wide range of mitigation solutions, select the best solution, and rapidly transmit it, thereby enabling the vehicles to avoid the collision—or at least to minimize the harm of the collision. The supercomputer (and potentially the other computers) can use AI-based models to optimize the best avoidance strategy. The vehicle's on-board processor can pre-emptively start implementing its own best solution while the other computers are still calculating. Then, if the access point solution or the supercomputer solution appears to be more effective, it can switch to the better strategy. By exploiting high-speed communication and coordinated processor power, most traffic collisions can be avoided.
