Method and apparatus for detecting terminal that deviates from cluster
According to at least one embodiment, a method and apparatus for detecting a vulnerable road user or a terminal of the vulnerable road user that deviates from a cluster are disclosed. A base station detects the deviation of a second terminal from the cluster on the basis of a safety message received from a first terminal, and transmits a warning message to at least one of a peripheral terminal and a traffic control center. The first terminal and the second terminal are included in the same cluster, the safety message includes at least one of cluster information associated with the mobility of the cluster and user information associated with the mobility of the first terminal, and the warning message includes deviation information association with the second terminal.
1. A method for detecting cluster departure, the method performed by a base station and comprising:
receiving a safety message from a first terminal;
detecting cluster departure of a second terminal based on the safety message; and
transmitting a warning message to at least one of a nearby terminal or a traffic control center based on the detection,
wherein the first terminal and the second terminal are included in a first cluster,
wherein the safety message includes at least one of cluster information related to mobility of the first cluster or user information related to mobility of the first terminal, and
wherein the warning message includes departure information related to the second terminal.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the safety message is transmitted via a Uu interface.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the base station receives the safety message from each of terminals including the first terminal, and
wherein the each of the terminals is included in the first cluster.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the safety message includes user information of the each of the terminals, and
wherein the user information informs mobility of the each of the terminals.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the base station measures the mobility of the first cluster based on the mobility of the each of the terminals, and
wherein the base station detects the cluster departure of the second terminal based on the mobility of the first cluster.
6. The method of claim 3 , wherein the safety message is transmitted periodically based on a period, and
wherein the period is same for the terminals.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the safety message includes the cluster information related to the mobility of the first cluster and the user information related to the first terminal,
wherein the base station detects the cluster departure of the second terminal based on the user information and the cluster information.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the mobility of the first cluster and the mobility of the first terminal comprises at least one of a position, velocity, speed, or direction of movement associated with the first cluster or the first terminal.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on a distance between the second terminal and a central location of the first cluster or a representative terminal of the first cluster being greater than or equal to a distance threshold, the base station detects the cluster departure of the second terminal.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the warning message requests the traffic control center to control a signal controller.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the signal controller is located within a specific range based on a location of the second terminal.
12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the signal controller is closest to a location of the second terminal.
13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the departure information informs mobility of the second terminal.
14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the warning message is transmitted through a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) application server.
15. A base station comprising:
at least one memory storing instructions;
at least one transceiver; and
at least one processor coupling the at least one memory and the at least one transceiver, wherein the at least one processor execute the instructions for:
receiving a safety message from a first terminal;
detecting cluster departure of a second terminal based on the safety message; and
transmitting a warning message to at least one of a nearby terminal or a traffic control center based on the detection,
wherein the first terminal and the second terminal are included in a first cluster,
wherein the safety message includes at least one of cluster information related to mobility of the first cluster or user information related to mobility of the first terminal, and
wherein the warning message includes departure information related to the second terminal.
16. The base station of claim 15 , wherein the second terminal is associated with a vulnerable road user (VRU).
17. An apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory operably coupled by the at least one processor and storing instructions, wherein the at least one processor execute the instructions for:
receiving a safety message from a first terminal;
detecting cluster departure of a second terminal based on the safety message; and
transmitting a warning message to at least one of a nearby terminal or a traffic control center based on the detection,
wherein the first terminal and the second terminal are included in a first cluster,
wherein the safety message includes at least one of cluster information related to mobility of the first cluster or user information related to mobility of the first terminal, and
wherein the warning message includes departure information related to the second terminal.
