AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES OPERATING WITH LOW LOCATION SIGNAL STRENGTH
DRIVE
April 30, 2026
Various systems and methods are presented regarding utilizing technology onboard a vehicle to mitigate the effects of communication signals being deleteriously affected/lost when operational surroundings cause occlusion/loss of receipt of positioning/location signals at the vehicle. The vehicle can be operating non-autonomously, partially autonomously, or autonomously. To supplement the lost/occluded signals position information of other systems proximate to the vehicle can be obtained/utilized. The other systems can include another vehicle, a mobile device, an internet, and suchlike. Also, onboard devices can be utilized to determine the location, such as an onboard camera system providing information regarding street signs, building facades, and suchlike.
