    Abstract: A vehicle system is disclosed and includes: a transceiver; a vehicle module configured to execute a supervised partially autonomous application (SPAA) at a vehicle; a user interface system configured to receive an input from a user to initiate a supervised remote mode for user presence control during execution of the SPAA; and a user presence module configured, until SPAA operations are ceased or completed, to perform a user presence process including iteratively i) transmitting a challenge request signal from the vehicle to a mobile smart device via the transceiver, ii) based on the challenge request signal, receiving a response signal from the mobile smart device indicating a user response provided to the mobile smart device, iii) based on the response signal, confirming user presence and whether the user response is valid for continued execution of operations of the SPAA, and iv) based on validation of the user response, performing a next operation of the SPAA.

    Abstract: The disclosure includes embodiments for identifying a transmitter of a Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) message. In some embodiments, a method for an ego vehicle includes modifying an operation of a communication unit of the ego vehicle to receive a V2X message that includes identification data of a transmitter of the V2X message. The method includes executing a proactive vehicle control operation on the ego vehicle to modify a distance between the ego vehicle and a preceding vehicle ahead of the ego vehicle so that the distance satisfies a distance threshold. The method includes determining whether the preceding vehicle is the transmitter based on the identification data so that a reliable determination is achieved to improve a driving safety of the ego vehicle responsive to the distance satisfying the distance threshold.
