Abstract
A method, a computer program, and an apparatus for invoking a tele-operated driving session and a transportation vehicle equipped with an automated driving function using the method or apparatus. An impending situation that requires a tele-operated driving session is identified, a quality of service for a communication between the transportation vehicle and a control center is predicted for a location where the tele-operated driving session will be performed, the speed of the transportation vehicle is reduced to a maximum drivable speed for a tele-operated driving session with the predicted quality of service, and the tele-operated driving session is initiated.
Claims18
A method for invoking a tele-operated driving session for a transportation vehicle equipped with an automated driving function, the method comprising:
- identifying an impending situation that requires a tele-operated driving session;
- predicting a quality of service for a communication between the transportation vehicle and a control center for a location where the tele-operated driving session will be performed;
- and
- reducing a speed of the transportation vehicle to a maximum drivable speed for a tele-operated driving session with the predicted quality of service.
An apparatus for invoking a tele-operated driving session for a transportation vehicle equipped with an automated driving function, the apparatus comprising:
- an identifying module to identify an impending situation that requires a tele-operated driving session;
- a predicting module configured to predict a quality of service for a communication between the transportation vehicle and a control center for a location where the tele-operated driving session will be performed;
- and
- a speed control module configured to reduce a speed of the transportation vehicle to a maximum drivable speed for a tele-operated driving session with the predicted quality of service.
