Abstract

A method for predicting, for a vehicle that is connected to a current cellular access point and is traveling on a road network, at least one characteristic associated with a modification of the linkage conditions of the vehicle to the cellular network. The method includes: training a first prediction model associated with the current access point from crowdsourced data collected from at least one training vehicle, the data comprising at least a first location, a speed and a direction of the training vehicle as well as a second location of the training vehicle collected when a disconnection from the current access point is detected; and predicting a third location at which a second vehicle will be disconnected from the current access point while traveling on the road network by applying the prediction model to a location, a speed, and a direction of the second vehicle.
