Systems and methods for adaptive mobile telecommunications for autonomous vehicles

An autonomous land vehicle in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure includes a land vehicle conveyance system, at least two telecommunication devices, an imaging device configured to capture image data of a surrounding environment, a video encoder configured to encode the image data, one or more processors, and at least one memory storing instructions. The telecommunication devices can perform wireless communication independently of each other and can simultaneously perform wireless communication. The instructions, when executed by the processor(s), cause the vehicle to travel using the conveyance system, determine a communication capability of the telecommunication devices while the conveyance system performs travel, determine a compression rate for the video encoder based on the communication capability, encode the image data using the video encoder based on the compression rate to generate encoded data, and communicate the encoded data using at least one telecommunication device based on the communication capability.
