The Need for Cooperative Automated Driving

In this paper we describe cooperation and social dilemmas in multiagent systems, with an analogy applied to road traffic. Cooperative human drivers, based on their perception of trust and fairness, find efficient solutions for such dilemmas. In the development of automated vehicles (AVs) it is therefore important to ensure that this cooperative ability is maintained even without a human driver. Therefore, the topic of cooperative intelligent transport systems (C-ITSs) is discussed in detail and different characteristics of cooperation and their implementation are derived. Further, three planning levels with the corresponding communication techniques are discussed and several methods for maneuver planning are listed. All in all, we hope that this paper will allow us to better classify different cooperative scenarios, develop novel approaches for cooperative AVs (CAVs), and emphasize the need for cooperative driving.
