The growing penetration of on-board communication units is enabling intelligent vehicles to share their sensor data with cloud computing platforms as well as with other vehicles. Although this unlocks the possibility of a variety of emerging applications, the massive amount of data traffic in vehicular networks is expected to pose a big challenge in the long term. In this paper, we shed light on the potential of value-anticipating networking to tackle this issue. A vehicle sending a piece of information first anticipates the value of that information for potential receivers. When the network is congested, the sender may defer or even cancel transmissions of less valuable information, so that important information can be delivered to receivers more reliably. We investigate the applicability of this concept to cooperative perception, where vehicles exchange processed sensor data over vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) networks to collaboratively improve coverage and accuracy of environmental perception. Through simulations based on realistic road traffic, we show that value-anticipating V2V communications can significantly improve the performance of cooperative perception under heavy network load.
