Cooperative Navigation Strategy for Safer, Smarter Urban Intersections
TS-073111 —
Urban intersections are among the highest‑risk environments for automated and human‑driven vehicles due to occlusions, complex right‑of‑way, mixed traffic, and inconsistent connectivity. On‑board perception alone often misses beyond‑line‑of‑sight actors, while centralized or game
