System, transportation vehicle, network component, apparatuses, methods, and computer programs for a transportation vehicle and a network component

A non-transitory computer readable medium including a computer program having a program code for performing a method for verification of a proposed route, when the computer program is executed on a computer, a processor, or a programmable hardware component, the method comprising:

• identifying an exceptional traffic situation based on an environmental model of a transportation vehicle, wherein the environmental model is generated based on data from a plurality of sensors of the transportation vehicle indicative of an environment of the transportation vehicle;
• determining a plurality of manipulated environmental models for the transportation vehicle, wherein each manipulated environmental model includes hypothetical amendments of the environmental model and a confidence level associated with the hypothetical amendments, and wherein the by amendments include at least one of an added object and a removed object;
• transmitting, to a network component using a mobile communication system, information related to the environmental model and the exceptional traffic situation;
• receiving, from the network component, information related to a proposed route and a modified environmental model providing a network perspective of the environmental model,
• adapting the environmental model based on the information related to the modified environmental model,
• determining a plurality of route versions resolving the exceptional traffic situation based on the adapted environmental model, wherein each route version includes a corresponding confidence level that the route version resolves the exceptional traffic situation;
• verifying the proposed route by comparing the proposed route based on the modified environmental model and each of the route versions based on the adapted environmental model, performing a consistency check on the proposed route and each of the route versions, wherein, in response to the proposed route corresponding to one of the route versions, a confidence level of the one of the route versions serves as a first confidence level of the proposed route, and determining whether the proposed route resolves the exceptional traffic situation within at least one of the plurality of manipulated environmental models, wherein, in response to the proposed route resolving the exceptional traffic situation within the at least one manipulated environmental model, a confidence level of the at least one manipulated environmental model serves as a second confidence level of the proposed route;
• and
• operating the transportation vehicle based on one of the proposed routes in response to each of the first confidence level and the second confidence level of the proposed route being greater than a first threshold.
