ADVANCED V2X EVENT DISSEMINATION
First Claim
1. A host vehicle comprising:
- a sensor to detect a traffic event; and
processor(s) to;
package the traffic event into a unit;
determine whether a vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) connection is active or inactive;
if active, append a TRUE flag to the unit and transmit the unit via the V2I connection and a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) connection; and
if inactive, append a FALSE flag to the unit and transmit the unit via the V2V connection.

Abstract
Disclosed is a host vehicle including: motor(s), sensors, processor(s) configured to: (i) package sensed data into a first unit; (ii) determine whether a vehicle-to-infrastructure connection is (a) active or (b) inactive; (iii) if (a), append a TRUE flag to the unit and if (b) append a FALSE flag to the unit; (iv) transmit the first appended unit over a vehicle-to-vehicle connection; (v) determine whether a second appended unit, received over a vehicle-to-vehicle connection, includes (c) a TRUE flag or (d) a FALSE flag; (vi) if (d), transmit the second appended unit over the vehicle-to-infrastructure connection; (vii) if (c), not transmit the second appended unit over the vehicle-to-infrastructure connection.

15. A method of controlling a host vehicle, which comprises memory, sensor(s), processor(s), the method comprising:
-
detecting a traffic event via the sensor(s); updating, via the processor(s), a virtual map that is stored in the memory with the traffic event; packaging the traffic event into a first unit; determining whether a vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) connection is active or inactive; if active, appending a TRUE flag to the first unit and transmitting the first unit via the V2I connection and a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) connection; and if inactive, appending a FALSE flag to the first unit and transmitting the first unit via the V2V connection. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 25)
