Implementations for an intelligent road barrier (IRB) system can include a plurality of road barriers located along a roadway, and a plurality of IRB kits, each IRB kit being including a set of sensors configured to obtain sensor data representative of at least a portion of a road state of the roadway proximate to the respective road barrier, a data processing unit configured to process at least a portion of the sensor data, a communication unit configured to send at least a portion of the sensor data and to receive sensor data from the one or more other IRB kits, and a state conveyance system configured to convey at least a portion of road state data to one or more vehicles associated with the roadway, the at least a portion of road state data being determined based on the at least a portion of the sensor data.

An apparatus comprising a processor and memory including computer program code, the memory and computer program code configured to, with the processor, enable the apparatus at least to: generate an indication of one or more communication network receiver upload zones for a road data gatherer along a planned route to be travelled by the road data gatherer, the indication determined according to a predetermined upload criterion, which takes account of the bandwidth capacities of communication network receivers along the planned route for the road data gatherer, to specify communication network receivers to be used by the road data gatherer for uploading of road data; and provide the indication to guide uploading of the road data gathered by the road data gatherer.

An approach is provided for generating/breaking vehicle paths on a limited graph area. The approach, for example, determining an expected frequency of location data collected from a sensor of a vehicle traveling on a roadway, wherein the location data include a plurality of probe points that are time-sequenced. The approach also involves detecting an exit or an entry of the vehicle on the roadway based on comparing the expected frequency to an observed frequency of the location data on at least one portion of the roadway. The approach further involves initiating an identification, a creation, a breaking, or a combination thereof of a path constructed from the location data based on the detecting of the exit or the entry of the vehicle. The approach further involves providing the path as an output.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) of a group of UEs may receive, from a group member of the group of UEs, traffic information including a transmission schedule associated with traffic of the group member UE. The UE may determine a discontinuous reception configuration for the group of UEs based at least in part on the transmission schedule. The discontinuous reception configuration may include a discontinuous reception schedule for the group of UEs. The UE may transmit, to the group of UEs, the discontinuous reception configuration.

Provided herein is a system and method for a vehicle system on a vehicle. The system comprises a server comprising sensor data of stop points, one or more processors, and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform: determining, from the stop points, one or more available stop points; selecting, from the one or more available stop points, a stop point based on a criteria; and stopping the vehicle at the selected stop point.

Provided herein is a system and method of a vehicle. The system comprises one or more sensors, processors, maps, and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the system to perform: monitoring a location of the vehicle while driving; detecting a sign while the vehicle is driving; capturing, frame-by-frame, data of the sign until the sign disappears from a field of view of the sensor; synchronizing each frame of the data with the location of the vehicle; determining a location of the sign based on the frame-by-frame data; in response to determining, at a frame immediately before the sign disappears from the field of view of the sensor, that the vehicle is driving towards the sign, uploading the detected sign and the location of the sign onto the one or more maps; and implementing a driving action based on the sign.

Embodiments include methods performed by a processor of a vehicle control unit for managing a driving condition anomaly. In some embodiments, the vehicle may receive a first driving condition based on data from a first vehicle sensor, receive a second driving condition based on data from another data source, determine a driving condition anomaly based on the first driving condition and the second driving condition, send a request for information to a driving condition database, receive the requested information from the driving condition database, and resolve the driving condition anomaly based on the requested information from the driving condition database.

Techniques for determining a location and type of traffic-related features and using such features in route planning are discussed herein. The techniques may include determining that sensor data represents a feature such as a traffic light, road segment, building type, and the like. The techniques further include determining a cost of a feature, whereby the cost is associated with the effect of a feature on a vehicle traversing an environment. A feature database can be updated based on features in the environment. A cost of the feature can be used to update costs of routes associated with the location of the feature.

This application relates to the automated driving field, and discloses a method for identifying abnormal driving behavior, a system, and a vehicle including the system. The method for identifying abnormal driving behavior includes: obtaining vehicle driving behavior data, and determining, based on the vehicle driving behavior data, whether a vehicle is in a state of suspicious abnormal driving behavior; obtaining current vehicle driving scenario data if the vehicle is in the state of suspicious abnormal driving behavior; and determining, based on the vehicle driving behavior data and the current vehicle driving scenario data, whether the suspicious abnormal driving behavior is abnormal driving behavior. In the technical solutions of this application, current driving scenario information is introduced to an identification process of abnormal driving behavior of the vehicle, so that accuracy of identifying the abnormal driving behavior is improved.

A method and an apparatus for pushing vehicle information, a user account server, and user equipment are provided. The method includes: receiving an entry event that is of a vehicle and that is sent by a parking management server, and obtaining geo-fence information of a parking lot managed by the parking management server; obtaining, by a user account server, a user account bound to the license plate number of the vehicle; obtaining a location determining result of user equipment corresponding to the user account; and pushing the entry event of the vehicle to the user equipment when the current location of the user equipment is within a geo-fence range.
