Abstract

The disclosure includes embodiments for adaptive sensor data sharing by a connected vehicle. A method includes calculating, by a processor of an ego vehicle, a view angle overlap between a first sensor of the ego vehicle and a second sensor of a roadway device, wherein the view angle overlap is an amount of sensor view overlap shared by first sensor and the second sensor. The method includes determining an amount of ego sensor data to share with the roadway device based on the view angle overlap. The method includes building a sharing message that includes the amount of ego sensor data in a payload of the sharing message. The method includes transmitting, by a communication unit of the ego vehicle, the sharing message to the roadway device.
