Abstract
Disclosed are systems and methods for vehicles in traffic to simultaneously measure local traffic parameters and communicate the data to a planning vehicle in 5G and 6G. Each participating vehicle can measure, at a predetermined time, the angles of the other vehicles in view, and also the distances to the other vehicles using radar or lidar, for example. They then communicate the data to a planning vehicle. The planning vehicle 'merges' or interconnects the various angle measurements to form a self-consistent traffic map of all vehicles in view of any of the participating vehicles, including non-participating vehicles. The planning vehicle then broadcasts the traffic map, or a listing of positions and wireless addresses of the vehicles, for all to use. The vehicles can then identify each other, and communicate with each other, to avoid collisions and facilitate the flow of traffic.
