Abstract: A system for planning motion of a vehicle includes a controller having a processor and tangible, non-transitory memory on which instructions are recorded. The vehicle is capable of an automated driving operation. A planning module is executable by the controller to generate a vehicle trajectory constrained by a set of planning parameters. During a degraded driving situation, an adjustment module is executable by the controller to generate at least one adjusted parameter in the set of planning parameters. The controller is adapted to register occurrence of the degraded driving situation when the planning module is unable to generate a feasible path for the vehicle constrained by the set of planning parameters. The planning module is adapted to generate a modified trajectory plan based on the at least one adjusted parameter, with the automated driving operation being based on the modified trajectory plan during the degraded driving situation.

Abstract: A method and system utilizes a device in a vehicle to periodically determine a location of the vehicle and store, only locally at the device, the location data. The device first detects the vehicle being turned on and identifies the vehicle. After identifying the vehicle the device determines the present location of the vehicle and transmits the present location to a backend server. The server determines the applicable geofence definition including the location and transmits the geofence definition back to the device, whereupon the device commences periodic location fixes, storing each location locally at the device. While performing the location fixes, the device also monitors the present location relative to the geofence definition. If the vehicle is approaching a border or edge of a geofenced region, the device requests a new geofence definition from the server. When the vehicle is shut off, the device transmits the distance driven in each geofenced region to the server.
