Abstract: A method for managing a communication between a base station of a cellular mobile communication system and at least one first moving communication partner. The method includes collecting service quality reporting messages from moving communication partners, registered in the communication cell managed by the base station, wherein the collecting service quality reporting messages include collecting service quality reporting messages for direct communications between two moving communication partners and generating link-based quality of service maps for the communications between the base station and the moving communication partners, as well as for the direct communications between two of the moving communication partners. The method also includes predicting the quality of service for a communication between the base station and at least one moving communication partner based on the generated link-based quality of service maps map.

Abstract: A system, a transportation vehicle, a network component, apparatuses, methods, and computer programs for a transportation vehicle and a network component. The method for a transportation vehicle to determine a route section includes operating the transportation vehicle in an automated driving mode and determining an exceptional traffic situation. The method also includes transmitting information related to the exceptional traffic situation to a network component using a mobile communication system and receiving information related to driving instructions for the route section to overcome the exceptional traffic situation from the network component, wherein the receiving of the driving instructions includes tele-operating the transportation vehicle along the route section to overcome the exceptional traffic situation.

Abstract: A method of automatically driven transportation vehicles (AV) that are tele-operated driving (TOD) in cases when the AV is not able to solve a situation due to unclear traffic conditions. Because TOD sessions arise from special, unclear and relatively rare circumstances and apply measures which go against normal traffic rules or normal behaviour expected from an AV, based on the solution, a transportation vehicle informs other AV's in the vicinity of the TOD session. Other transportation vehicles use the information on the TOD session to aid their situational awareness and driving.

Abstract: A method, a computer program, an apparatus, a transportation vehicle, and a network component for determining a speed limit for a tele-operated transportation vehicle. The method for determining a speed limit for a tele-operated transportation vehicle includes obtaining information related to an environment of the tele-operated transportation vehicle; obtaining information related to a predictive quality of service (pQoS) of a communication link between the tele-operated transportation vehicle and a tele-operator of the transportation vehicle; and determining the speed limit based on the information related to the environment of the tele-operated transportation vehicle and the information related to the pQoS.

Abstract: A method for invoking a teleoperated driving session for a transportation vehicle equipped with an automated driving function, hereinafter called teleoperated driving session, wherein the transportation vehicle is equipped with a number of environment detection sensors and a communication module for communicating to a control center computer. The method includes determining a quality of service prediction for the communication between the transportation vehicle and the control center computer for the time when the teleoperated driving session is invoked, and selecting the class of data to be exchanged with the control center computer during the teleoperated driving session based on the QoS prediction.

Abstract: Methods, computer programs, apparatuses, a transportation vehicle, and a control center for resolving a deadlock traffic situation of a transportation vehicle. The method includes detecting the deadlock traffic situation, reporting the deadlock traffic situation to a control center, entering a tele-operated driving session in coordination with the control center, determining information on an identification of the deadlock traffic situation in coordination with the control center, forwarding the information on the identification of the deadlock situation to other transportation vehicles, and resolving the deadlock traffic situation using tele-operation by the control center.

Abstract: A method, a computer program, an apparatus, a transportation vehicle, and a network entity for predicting a deadlock situation for an automated transportation vehicle. The deadlock situation is an exceptional traffic situation necessitating a change of an operational mode of the transportation vehicle. The method for predicting a deadlock situation for the automated transportation vehicle includes obtaining information related to a historical deadlock situation cause, determining historical context information for the historical deadlock situation cause, determining information indicative for the deadlock situation cause based on the information related to the historical context information, monitoring actual context information for information indicative for the deadlock situation, and predicting the deadlock situation based on the information indicative for the deadlock situation in the actual context information.
