This invention is related to a deep multi-sensor fusion system for inter-radar interference-free environmental perception comprising of (1) polystatic Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) radars such as radio frequency radar and laser radar; (2) vehicle self-localization and navigation; (3) the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) including Vehicle-to-Vehicle communication (V2V), Vehicle-to-Infrastructure communication (V2I), other communication systems, data center/cloud; (4) passive sensors such as EOIR, and (5) deep multi-sensor fusion algorithms. The self-localization sensors and V2X formulate cooperative sensors. The polystatic MIMO radar on each vehicle utilizes both its own transmitted radar signals and ones from other vehicles to detect obstacles. The transmitted radar signals from other vehicles are not considered as interference or uselessness as conventional radars, but considered as useful signals to formulate a polystatic MIMO radar which can overcome the interference problem and improve the radar performance. This invention can be applied to all kinds of vehicles and robotics.

Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) has the advantages of high bandwidth and low latency and has attracted extensive attention in the study of next generation of mobile networks by providing service environment and computing power at the edge of mobile networks. The invention discloses a vehicle task unloading and user mobility prediction and edge cache fusion policy in a vehicle networking environment. An MEC-based unloading framework is built. Tasks can be unloaded to an MEC server for vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications or can be unloaded to an adjacent vehicle for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications. Considering task backhaul failure caused by link disconnection caused by user mobility, the Kalman filter algorithm is used to predict link connection estimation, and a user can select a stable service node during task request and task collection. Cache decisions are made before the service node first returns a task to a request vehicle. Access latency, traffic load and networkcost can be significantly reduced through content cache.

A system and method for providing geo-service advertising messages using a wireless vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2X) communications network. Messages are transmitted from a business that identify the type of business, the name of the business and the location of the business, which are received by vehicles traveling within a certain distance of the business.

In one example, we describe a method and infrastructure for DSRC V2X (vehicle to infrastructure plus vehicle) system. This can cover a communication circle up to 800 m, and in some cases 1000 m, and as a result, in congested traffic areas, the onboard unit is communicating with high number of units and may end up saturating its processing capability very quickly. In one example, the task is to provide different levels of node filtering algorithms to intelligently select the node data to be processed. This results in optimally using the available processing power by only processing the data of the desired nodes. This method is based on combination of range, velocity, heading, direction, transmitted power, received power threshold, and map database, if available. This also reduces the V2X communication congestion problem resulted in high number of one-to-many nodes communication.
