1. A method for vehicle-to-vehicle communication, comprising:
- receiving sensor data from one or more sensors;
categorizing the sensor data into common information and detailed information;
broadcasting the common information to at least one vehicle in a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) network, the common information indicating the availability of the detailed information;
determining that at least one portion of the detailed information is desired by the at least one vehicle; and
transmitting the at least one portion of the detailed information to the at least one vehicle.

Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure relate to vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) data sharing. The sensor data collected from each vehicle may be divided into common information and detailed information. The common information is broadcasted to every other nearby vehicle. Based on the received common information other vehicles may express interest in some particular detailed information. Unicast and/or multicast sessions may be set up to share the detailed information with the interested vehicles.
