METHOD FOR SENDING VEHICLE-TO-X-MESSAGES, METHOD FOR DETERMINING A POSSIBLE COLLISION, AND VEHICLE-TO-X-COMMUNICATIONS MODULE
A of performing vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication based on identification value of a road on which a vehicle is driving. The identification value of the road may be utilized to determine whether the road intersects with another road. If the road intersects with another road, then a possible collision between vehicles located at a same geographic position may occur. If the road does not intersect with another road, but passes over or under the road, then no possible collision exists between vehicles located at a same geographic position.
1 . A method of performing vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication, the method comprising:
determining a road on which a vehicle is traveling;
determining an identification value associated with the road and
transmitting a V2X message from the vehicle to a recipient, the V2X message comprising the identification value associated with the road.
2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the identification value is a unique identifier of the road.
3 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein determining the identification value associated with the road comprises accessing at least one of satellite navigation, terrestrial navigation, and an electronic map.
4 . A method of determining a possible collision between vehicles the method comprising:
determining a first road on which a first vehicle is traveling;
determining a first identification value associated with the first road;
receiving from a second vehicle a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) message, the V2X message comprising a second identification value associated with a second road on which the second vehicle is traveling; and
determining the possible collision between the first vehicle and the second vehicle based on the first identification value and the second identification value.
5 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein determining the possible collision comprises:
determining whether the first identification value matches the second identification value;
determining whether the first road associated with the first identification value intersects the second road associated with the second identification value; and
determining the possible collision based on a first result of determining that the first identification value matches the second identification value or a second result of determining that the first road intersects the second road.
6 . The method according to claim 5 , wherein the first road comprises accessing at least one of satellite navigation, terrestrial navigation, and an electronic map.
7 . The method according to claim 6 , wherein determining the possible collision comprises:
predicting a first position of the first vehicle based on first motion data of the first vehicle;
predicting a second position of the second vehicle based on second motion data of the second vehicle; and
determining the possible collision based on the first position and the second position.
8 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein predicting the first position and predicting the second position comprises accessing at least one of vehicle sensors, satellite navigation, and terrestrial navigation.
9 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein the V2X message comprises the second motion data.
10 . The method according to claim 9 , further comprising determining the first vehicle approaches an intersection or a bridge,
wherein determining the possible collision comprises determining the possible collision in response to determining the first vehicle approaches the intersection or the bridge.
