Abstract

A method for deploying of a backup roadside unit (RSU) vehicle to provide on-demand RSU services is described. The method may include determining, by a server, a resource specification to deploy a selected backup RSU vehicle to a requested site. The determining of the resource specification may be performed by the server in response to a scene description received from a requestor. The method also includes sending a dispatch instruction to the selected backup RSU vehicle to deploy the selected backup RSU vehicle to the requested site. In this method, a hardware/software capability of the selected backup RSU vehicle is matched to the resource specification determined by the server.
