Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of cooperatively coordinating future driving maneuvers of a vehicle with fellow maneuvers of at least one fellow vehicle, wherein trajectories for the vehicle are rated with an effort value each, trajectories and fellow trajectories of the fellow vehicle are combined into tuples, the trajectory and the associated effort value of a collision-free tuple are selected as reference trajectory and reference effort value, trajectories with a lower effort value than the reference effort value are classified as demand trajectories, trajectories with higher effort value than the reference effort value are classified as alternative trajectories, and a data packet having a trajectory set consisting of the reference trajectory and the associated reference effort value as well as at least one trajectory from a group comprising the demand trajectories and the alternative trajectories as well as the respective effort values is transmitted to the fellow vehicle.
