Abstract: The disclosure includes embodiments for reliably transmitting valuable information to an endpoint via a Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) network. In some embodiments, a method includes receiving a stream of data bits describing one or more pieces of information intended to be delivered to the endpoint via the V2X network. The method includes determining one or more values of the one or more pieces of information respectively. The one or more values are evaluated with respect to the endpoint and indicate whether the one or more pieces of information are valuable information with respect to the endpoint. The method includes implementing a communication-assurance action based on the one or more values. The method includes modifying an operation of a communication unit of a connected vehicle based on the communication-assurance action so that the valuable information is reliably delivered to the endpoint even in a scenario where the V2X network is congested.

Abstract: A method for routing VoIP traffic in a local mobile communication network includes selecting a path among a set of possible paths between two nodes of the network based on the number of hops and the transmission time of a reference voice packet along the possible paths, the transmission time along each path being a function of the transmission rates associated with the links composing the path.
