Abstract
System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to identifying connected vehicles through invoking maneuvers by vehicles that assist with distinguishing between safety messages having unassociated identifiers originating from the connected vehicles. In one embodiment, a method includes identifying surrounding vehicles including indeterminate vehicles from a driving environment using temporary identifiers received from the surrounding vehicles. The method also includes generating trajectories for the indeterminate vehicles. The method also includes distinguishing the indeterminate vehicles from communications using the temporary identifiers by observing execution of the trajectories by the indeterminate vehicles. The method also includes executing a planning task by a subject vehicle using safety information from the communications.
