Method and vehicle communication system for determining a driving intention for a vehicle
First Claim
1. A method for determining a driving intention for a transportation vehicle, wherein the driving intention comprises information about a predicted driving maneuver, the method comprising:
- determining a position of the transportation vehicle;
identifying a section of road based on the position of the transportation vehicle and a digital map;
assigning two or more possible driving intentions to the identified section of road;
obtaining information about internal trigger variables based on on-board sensors or actuators of the transportation vehicle;
assigning one or more triggering conditions to the two or more possible driving intentions and assigning probability of intention to each of the one or more trigger conditions if met; and
determining the driving intention based on the identified section of road, the information about the internal trigger variables and the one or more triggering conditions.

Abstract
A method and a transportation vehicle communication system for determining a driving intention for a transportation vehicle. The driving intention includes information about a predicted driving maneuver. The method includes determining a position of the transportation vehicle; identifying a road section based on the position of the transportation vehicle and a digital map; obtaining information about internal trigger variables for determining a current driving intention based on on-board sensors or actuators of the transportation vehicle; and determining the driving intention based on the road section, the information about the internal trigger variables, and the one or more trigger conditions. One or more possible driving intentions are associated with the road section. One or more trigger conditions are associated with the one or more possible driving intentions based on one or more trigger variables.
