Abstract

A mission system for autonomous vehicle (AV) team coordination and a method of using the same are disclosed. A controller included on an AV shares mission data between two or more AVs, and in response to communication denial, generates estimated navigation trajectories for teammate AVs. A simulation outputs estimated navigation states for the teammate AVs. The estimated navigation states are identical or substantially identical to navigation states otherwise generated by controllers included on the teammate AVs. The estimated navigation trajectories are generated based on the estimated navigation states.
