Performance Evaluation of Onboard Processing Capability Reduction in Cooperative Vehicles Using 5G and Artificial Intelligence

Types of architectures: (a) decentralized: a scenario where vehicles share each other information from their sensors with each other. Before the vehicle executes an action, it receives the data obtained by its sensor and nearby sensors. Based on this information, it acts within the environment and receives a positive or negative reward for the action performed. (b) Semidecentralized: a scenario in which the vehicle learns centrally but makes its decisions in a decentralized manner. The vehicles send their information to the cloud, and the cloud trains a neural network to obtain a common behavioral policy. It then sends the information to each vehicle, and based on the information from its sensors, the vehicle executes a maneuver.
