Abstract:
Describe are systems and methods for implementing a peer-to-peer (P2P) wireless group acting as a vehicular micro cloud. In one example, a system includes a processor and a memory in communication with the processor having a group coordination service module. The group coordination service module has instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to select a vehicle out of a plurality of vehicles to act as a group owner of a P2P wireless group operating as a vehicular micro cloud based on vehicle status information from the plurality of vehicles and transmit group configurations of the first P2P wireless group to the plurality of vehicles to allow the plurality of vehicles to join the first P2P wireless group. The selection of the vehicle may be based on how long the vehicle is predicted to be a member of the vehicular micro cloud.
