Infrastructure Vehicle Assistance Prioritization
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing infrastructure-supported vehicle assistance systems lack efficiency in prioritizing and allocating resources to multiple motor vehicles, leading to suboptimal support and resource utilization.
Innovation Solution
A method that involves receiving driving-environment signals, ascertaining infrastructure-assistance data, and transmitting priority-based signals to motor vehicles, allowing for targeted support based on individual priorities, automation levels, accident probabilities, and criticality, ensuring efficient allocation of resources and support.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If infrastructure-supported assistance is provided to multiple motor vehicles without prioritization, then all vehicles receive support, but resource utilization becomes inefficient and system performance deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the fleet of motor vehicles into different priority groups based on their individual needs, automation levels, and operational criticality. This segmentation allows the infrastructure to allocate resources differently to different vehicle groups, providing comprehensive support to high-priority vehicles while maintaining efficient resource utilization across the entire system.
Solution Approach 2:
The prioritization mechanism assigns different support qualities to different vehicles based on their specific characteristics and needs. High-priority vehicles receive more robust and timely infrastructure assistance, while lower-priority vehicles receive standard support, ensuring that resources are concentrated where they are most needed without completely neglecting other vehicles.
2Ease of operation
If infrastructure resources are allocated equally to all motor vehicles, then resource allocation is simple, but critical vehicles do not receive timely or sufficient support
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary prioritization assessment of motor vehicles before infrastructure assistance is needed. By pre-evaluating vehicle automation levels, operational criticality, and support requirements, the system establishes priority rankings in advance, enabling rapid and appropriate resource allocation when assistance is required without complex real-time decision-making.
3Reliability
If detailed prioritization criteria are implemented for motor vehicles, then support targeting becomes more precise, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The prioritization system evaluates motor vehicles based on specific parameters such as automation level (SAE levels 0-5), operational criticality, and support requirements. By changing and comparing these quantifiable parameters, the system achieves precise targeting of infrastructure assistance while maintaining manageable complexity through standardized evaluation criteria.
Data Source
AI summary
A method for the infrastructure-supported assistance of multiple motor vehicles. The method includes: receiving of driving-environment signals which represent a driving environment of the motor vehicles; ascertaining, based on the driving-environment signals, of infrastructure-assistance data for the infrastructure-supported assistance of the motor vehicles; transmitting of infrastructure-assistance data signals, which represent the ascertained infrastructure-assistance data, to the motor vehicles; prioritizing the motor vehicles in order to assign a priority to each of the motor vehicles; at least one of the steps of ascertaining the infrastructure-assistance data and of transmitting the infrastructure-assistance data signals being carried out based on the priorities assigned to the motor vehicles.
