Method to dynamically recommend a route

Abstract

Abstract The method involves vehicles with autonomous navigation systems and mobile radio devices. A current route is provided to the user with the navigation device using a dialogue conducted over a mobile radio interface and link to a traffic control and information centre. The entry of the destination at any point is independent of the mobile radio link to the centre. The navigation system first computes the route to the entered destination completely independently using data stored on board. A request to the centre results in the transfer not of the current position but of the anticipated position of the vehicle when the reply is received, and the recommended route data are passed to the vehicle as a sequence of route sections.
