Claim 7:
8. A non-transitory computer-readable media storing source code that, when executed by a processor, performs a computer-implemented method, in an autonomous vehicle, for enabling quality of service for data communications between autonomous driving vehicles based on best available channels available on a controller area network (CAN) data bus, the method comprising the steps of:
injecting an orchestrator on the CAN data bus line that is also coupled to a plurality of independent silos of vehicle communication technologies for autonomous driving vehicle technologies, wherein the plurality of independent silos broadcast intended data transfers;
receiving real-time accurate strength signals associated with the plurality of independent silos;
intercepting a data transfer over one of the plurality of independent silos;
determining a data type involved in the data transfer;
selecting one of the plurality of independent silos of communication for rerouting the data transfer, based on a type of data involved in the data transfer, and based on a best available silo of the plurality of independent silos for the data transfer type;
directing the data transfer over the selected independent silo.
