Abstract
The disclosure includes embodiments for modifying a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) radio of an ego vehicle that is a connected vehicle. In some embodiments, a method includes analyzing, by a machine learning module executed by a processor, a local dynamic map generated by the ego vehicle to determine schedule data describing a schedule for the ego vehicle to transmit a millimeter wave (mmWave) message to a remote vehicle. The method includes transmitting a V2X message including the schedule data for receipt by the remote vehicle so that the remote vehicle has access to the schedule. The method includes modifying an operation of the V2X radio of the ego vehicle based on the schedule so that the V2X radio transmits the mmWave message to the remote vehicle in compliance with the schedule. The method includes transmitting the mmWave message to the remote vehicle in compliance with the schedule.
