Abstract

A method includes: remotely operating, by a teleoperation server, a vehicle fleet on a road network via wireless connections provided by a cellular network; receiving, by a network node of the cellular network, a route request from the teleoperation server, wherein the received route request comprises a starting position of a vehicle of the vehicle fleet, a target location to be reached by the vehicle, a teleoperation route connecting the target location to the starting position and a travel time of the vehicle; determining, by the network node, a teleoperation route for the vehicle from the requested starting position to the requested target location; and based on the cellular network not allowing for safe remote operation of the vehicle along the requested teleoperation route during the requested travel time, transmitting, by the network node, a route suggestion to the teleoperation server, the transmitted route suggestion comprising the determined teleoperation route.
