  • Patent number: 12153441
    Abstract: An assistance system/method for cooperative maneuver planning is taught, wherein in each vehicle, a planned trajectory and a desired trajectory are selected depending on a cost function; wherein a most economical first trajectory is generated which is free of collisions with planned and desired trajectories of other vehicles, and i) wherein a most economical second trajectory is generated which ignores planned and desired trajectories of other vehicles and is transmitted as a desired trajectory only if a cost difference between the first and the second trajectory is greater than a minimum cost reduction value, wherein additionally/alternatively to i), a most economical third trajectory is generated which is free of collisions with planned trajectories of other vehicles but ignores their desired trajectories, wherein a desired trajectory of another vehicle is accepted if a cost difference between the first and the third trajectory is less than a maximum cost increase value.
