Adaptive operational design domain calculations
A user equipment (UE) may be associated with a vehicle, for example the UE may be a vehicle or may be a wireless device connectively coupled (e.g., wired or wireless connection) to the vehicle. The UE may receive a set of attributes associated with a route of the UE. The UE may calculate a predicted number of operational design domain (ODD) switches along the route based on the set of attributes. In one aspect, the UE may notify a driver associated with the UE of an ODD condition based on the calculated predicted number of ODD switches being greater or equal than a threshold value. In another aspect, the UE may deactivate an ODD mode associated with the UE based on the calculated predicted number of ODD switches being greater or equal than a threshold value.
