Abstract:

Tele-operated Driving (ToD) is a challenging use case for mobile network operators. Video captured by the built-in vehicle cameras must be streamed meeting a latency requirement of 5 ms with a 99% reliability. Although 5G offers high bandwidth, ultra-low latencies and high reliability; ToD service requirements are violated due to bad channel conditions. Ignoring the channel state may lead to over-estimating the number of ToD vehicles that can meet the service requirements, hence compromising the vehicle security. To fill this gap, in this letter we propose TOVAC, an algorithm that guarantees ToD service requirements by taking adequate admission control and routing decisions. This is achieved by using a channel-based capacity graph that determines the maximum number of vehicles that can be tele-operated in any road section. We evaluate TOVAC considering cellular deployments from Turin and show that, unlike a state of the art solution, TOVAC guarantees the ToD service requirements.
