Abstract:
Method performed by a communication device ( 150 ) to determine whether to allow a first vehicle ( 111 ) to overtake a vehicle platoon ( 120 ). The platoon ( 120 ) comprises two or more second vehicles ( 121, 122, 123, 124 ). The communication device obtains ( 202 ) information about the first vehicle ( 111 ), when the first vehicle ( 111 ) is within a first distance ( 131 ) behind the platoon ( 120 ). The communication device then determines ( 203 ) whether to allow the first vehicle ( 111 ) to overtake the platoon ( 120 ) based on the obtained information. The communication device then provides ( 207 ), based on a result of the determining ( 203 ), a first indication to at least one of: a) a first radio node ( 161 ) in the first vehicle ( 111 ), and b) a second radio node ( 162 ) in one of the second vehicles ( 121 ) in the platoon. A method performed by the first ( 161 ) and the second ( 162 ) radio nodes is also disclosed. Publ.

Claim (Index 45):
A first radio node configured to be located in a first vehicle for providing to the first vehicle an indication to overtake a vehicle platoon, the vehicle platoon comprising two or more second vehicles, the first radio node comprising:\n at least one processor; and at least one memory storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, configure the first radio node to:\n obtain a first indication from one of: i) a communication device, ii) a last vehicle in the vehicle platoon, and iii) a second radio node in one of the second vehicles in the vehicle platoon, wherein the first indication is one of: a) an authorization to overtake the vehicle platoon, and b) a signal to the first vehicle to not attempt to overtake the vehicle platoon; and \n provide, to the first vehicle and based on the obtained first indication, a second signal to overtake the vehicle platoon.
