Embodiments of a network optimizer are described. Examples of V2X communication that are compatible with the network optimizer include one or more of the following types of wireless V2X communication: DSRC; LTE; mmWave; 3G; 4G; 5G; LTE-Vehicle-to-Anything (LTE-V2X); LTE-Vehicle-to-Vehicle (LTE-V2V); LTE-Device-to-Device (LTE-D2D); 5G-V2X; Intelligent Transportation System-G5 (ITS-G5); ITS-Connect; Voice over LTE (VoLTE); and any derivative or fork of one or more of the V2X communication protocols listed here.
Described herein are embodiments that provide a centralized cloud-based solution that assists connected vehicles to select which radio type to use based on their situation while correcting the deficiencies present in the existing solutions. An additional purpose of the embodiments described herein is to provide a system which globally coordinates which radio types vehicles use in different situations so that all the radio types available in each of the geographic regions perform optimally and have maximum residual bandwidth at any given time.
Many onboard vehicle applications require consistent and high-quality access to digital data received via one or more of the connected vehicle's radio channels in order to provide their functionality. For example, an Advanced Driving Assistance System (ADAS system) of the connected vehicle may make a fatal operating decision for the connected vehicle because the ADAS system does not have consistent access to digital data which should be received from one of the connected vehicle's radio channels.
