Abstract:
In embodiments, an apparatus for intersection management of autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicles may include an input interface to receive an intersection crossing request from one or more autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicles, the request including vehicle data; an output interface coupled to a transmitter, and an analyzer coupled to the input interface and to the output interface to process the request, based, at least in part, on the vehicle data, to generate a command including a crossing velocity and a time to assume the crossing velocity, and cause the transmitter, via the output interface, to transmit the command to the requesting vehicle. Other and related embodiments are also described.

Claim (Index 20):
An intersection management system, comprising:\n an intersection manager (IM) having:\n a memory to store instructions; \n a processor to execute the instructions; and \n a transceiver to send and receive data; \n a plurality of autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicles, each communicatively linked with the transceiver of the IM; wherein each of the plurality of vehicles is to synchronize its clock to a clock of the IM; wherein each vehicle is to transmit a request to cross the intersection, the request being submitted to the IM upon crossing a request line informing the IM of the vehicle identification, input/output lane of travel, velocity, and time-stamp/position pair at the time of crossing the request line; wherein the IM is to receive the request to cross the intersection from a vehicle and assign to the vehicle a time to assume a new velocity through the intersection; wherein the intersection manager is to transmit a response to the vehicle with the specified time and the new velocity; wherein the vehicle is further to receive the response with the specified time and the new velocity and assume the new velocity at the specified time; and wherein the vehicle it further to traverses the intersection at the new velocity.
