  • Patent number: 11662744
    Abstract: A system comprises a computer having a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor to transmit a vehicle localization signal from a first vehicle, receive vehicle localization data for the first vehicle, the vehicle localization data generated based on receipt of the vehicle localization signal by a plurality of localization receivers of a vehicle movement space, determine, based on the vehicle localization data for the first vehicle, a position of the first vehicle in the vehicle movement space, determine a position of a second vehicle in the vehicle movement space relative to the position of the first vehicle, and command a first movement by the first vehicle based on the position of the first vehicle and the position of the second vehicle relative to the position of the first vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20230126088
    Abstract: A vehicle includes a human-machine interface (HMI) device, configured to interact with a user; a wireless transceiver; and a controller, configured to responsive to the wireless transceiver detecting a signal strength of a wireless transmission at a predefined frequency exceeding a predefined threshold, output a message via the HMI device to ask a user to switch off a wireless device associated with the user, and responsive to continuing to detect the signal strength of the wireless transmission exceeding the threshold, output an alert, via the HMI device, to inform the user of a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication failure and record an identity of the wireless transmission and a location of the vehicle.
