  • Patent number: 11283874
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for collectively optimizing cooperative actions among autonomous connected vehicles. A system may include a plurality of autonomous connected machines and/or vehicles that may establish a mesh network for communication amongst one another. Remote from the mesh network, the system may include a consortium configured to communicate with the mesh network, such as by cellular communication. The mesh network of connected vehicles may collectively receive, from the remote consortium, reliability information associated with the autonomous vehicles in the mesh network, and may collectively generate a shared map of the environment surrounding the plurality of autonomous connected vehicles in accordance with the reliability information. Based on the shared map, the mesh network of connected vehicles may collaboratively generate a collective navigation plan for the plurality of vehicles to navigate the environment.
