METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INVOKING A TELE-OPERATED DRIVING SESSION

Method, a computer program, and an apparatus for invoking a tele-operated driving session for a vehicle equipped with an automated driving function. The application is further related to a vehicle equipped with an automated driving function, which makes use of such a method or apparatus. In a first step, an impending situation that may require a tele-operated driving session is identified (10). In addition, a quality of service for a communication between the vehicle and a control center for a location where the tele-operated driving session should be performed is predicted (11). A speed of the vehicle is then reduced (12) a to a maximum drivable speed for a tele-operated driving session with the predicted quality of service. Once it is confirmed that the tele-operated driving session is required, the tele-operated driving session is initiated (13).
