Abstract

A first apparatus obtains first information, where the first information includes information about a road and/or information about an object on the road, and the object on the road includes a vehicle and/or a pedestrian on the road. The first apparatus determines a driving behavior of the first apparatus based on the first information and a capability of the first apparatus. Even if the capability of the first apparatus cannot be used to process complete information of the first information, the first apparatus can still determine the driving behavior of the first apparatus based on a part of information in the first information. This resolves a problem that a capability of an apparatus cannot fully match road side information. According to the technical solution, apparatuses with different capabilities can cooperate with different roads with different capabilities, to improve travel efficiency and safety.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the multiple types of information comprises:

third-type information, wherein the third-type information is perception information, and the perception information comprises at least one of real-time status information of the road that is obtained in a perception manner, and real-time information that is obtained in the perception manner and that is about at least one of the vehicle and the pedestrian on the road;

fourth-type information, wherein the fourth-type information is intent prediction information, and the intent prediction information is used to indicate a driving route of the object on the road within subsequent time; and

fifth-type information, wherein the fifth-type information is suggestion information, and the suggestion information is used to indicate any combination of one or more of the following: a driving route planned for the first vehicle, driving time planned for the first vehicle, or a speed planned for the first vehicle.

4. A communication apparatus, comprising:

a non-transitory memory configured to store instructions; and

a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the instructions cause the processor to be configured to:

obtain first information, wherein the first information comprises information about at least one of a road and information about an object on the road, the object on the road comprises at least one of a vehicle and a pedestrian on the road, and the first information indicates at least one type of information among multiple types of information and the first information further comprises second-type information, wherein the second-type information is digital information, and the digital information comprises road traffic information within first duration and the road traffic information indicates a road construction status within the first duration; and

determine a driving behavior of a first apparatus based on the first information, including the second-type information and a capability of the first apparatus, wherein the capability of the first apparatus comprises a capability class of the first apparatus, and wherein the first information further comprises information about a sign for the capability class of the vehicle.

5. The apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the multiple types of information comprises at least one of the following:

first-type information comprising information about at least one of a physical identifier and a marking on the road;

third-type information, wherein the third-type information is perception information, and the perception information comprises at least one of real-time status information of the road that is obtained in a perception manner, and real-time information that is obtained in the perception manner and that is about the vehicle and/or the pedestrian on the road;

fourth-type information, wherein the fourth-type information is intent prediction information, and the intent prediction information is used to indicate a driving route of the object on the road within subsequent time; or

fifth-type information, wherein the fifth-type information is suggestion information, and the suggestion information is used to indicate any combination of one or more of the following: a driving route planned for the first vehicle, driving time planned for the first vehicle, or a speed planned for the first vehicle.
