Method for the Operation of a Driver Assistance System of a Vehicle
First Claim
1. A method for the operation of a driver assistance system of a vehicle, comprising the acts of:
- receiving, by a computer of the vehicle, a message sent by a central computer, the message containing traffic data and a confidence parameter which represents a measure for the reliability of the traffic data; and
transmitting a traffic status message, including a time stamp and coordinates of the vehicle, to the central computer, based upon the value of the confidence parameter.

Abstract
A method for the operation of a driver assistance system of a vehicle (C1, C2), particularly of a motor vehicle and/or a commercial vehicle is provided. A message produced by a central computer (ZR), the message having traffic data (VD) and a confidence parameter (CL) which represents a measure for the reliability of the traffic data (VD) is received by a computer (R1, R2) of the vehicle (C1, C2). According to the magnitude of the confidence parameter, the transmission of a traffic status message (VZD), having at least one time stamp as well as coordinates of the vehicle (C1, C2), is directed to the central computer.

12. A method for operation of a communication infrastructure for detecting and producing road traffic data, comprising the acts of:
-
sending, by a vehicle participating in road traffic, a traffic status message including a time stamp and coordinates of the vehicle to a central computer in prespecified intervals or upon occurrence of a detected, prespecified event; producing, by the central computer, a message from the received traffic status message, said message having traffic data and a confidence parameter which represents a measure for the reliability of the traffic data, and transmitting said message to the vehicle; receiving, by a computer of the vehicle, the message produced by the central computer including the traffic data and the confidence parameter; and
transmitting the traffic status message by the vehicle to the central computer, based upon the magnitude of the confidence parameter. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
