Driving assistance based on road infrastructure information
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- determining a position of a User Equipment (UE);
transmitting a request for road infrastructure data, wherein the request includes the position of the UE;
receiving road infrastructure data associated with at least one road infrastructure element within a proximity of the UE;
determining whether the at least one road infrastructure element lies beyond a line of sight of a driver associated with the UE;
generating a graphical representation of the at least one road infrastructure element along with information associated with the road infrastructure data, wherein the information includes a position of the at least one road infrastructure element; and
providing the graphical representation to a display, wherein the graphical representation includes an indication in response to determining that the at least one road infrastructure element lies beyond the line of sight of the driver.

Abstract
A user equipment (UE) provides driving assistance based on road infrastructure information. The UE may include a wireless interface which communicates over a wireless channel, a position determination system configured to determine a position of the UE, a memory configured to store instructions, and a processor configured to execute the instructions stored in the memory. The processor may be configured to transmit a request for road infrastructure data which may include the position of the UE, receive road infrastructure data associated with road infrastructure element(s) within a proximity to the UE, where a boundary of the proximity exceeds a line of sight of the UE. The processor may also generate a graphical representation of the road infrastructure element(s) along with information associated with the road infrastructure data, and provide the graphical representation to a display. The graphical representation may convey status of, or information provided by, the road infrastructure element(s).

18. A method, comprising:
-
receiving, at a network element, a request for road infrastructure data from at least one User Equipment (UE); executing a query for road infrastructure data, wherein the road infrastructure data is associated with at least one road infrastructure element within a proximity of the at least one UE, wherein a boundary the proximity exceeds a line of sight of a driver associated with the at least one UE; receiving the road infrastructure data in response to the query, wherein the road infrastructure data includes a position of the at least one road infrastructure element to determine whether the at least one road infrastructure element lies beyond the line of sight of the driver; and transmitting the road infrastructure data to the at least one UE in response to the request.
