VEHICLE, INFRASTRUCTURE COMPONENT, APPARATUS, COMPUTER PROGRAM, AND METHOD FOR A VEHICLE

Embodiments provide a vehicle (2100), an infrastructure component (2200), an apparatus (200), a computer program, and a method (100) for a vehicle configured to be remotely operated by a remote driver in a remote driving mode and to be operated at least partially automatically in an automated driving mode. The method (100) comprises determining (110) driving preferences of a remote driver from the driving behavior of the remote driver. Also, the method (100) comprises predicting (120), based on the driving preferences, information on a future traffic situation for switching from the automated driving mode to the remote driving mode. Further, the method (100) comprises determining (130) a predicted quality of service (pQoS) of a communication link for the remote driving mode. The method (100) also comprises predicting (140) a remote operation interval for which the vehicle is at least operable in the remote driving mode based on the pQoS and the information on the future traffic situation. Further, the method comprises deciding (150) for or against a change from the automated driving mode to the remote driving mode based on the remote operation interval.
