Systems and methods for cooperative ramp merger are described herein. In one embodiment, a system for assisting with a merge based on a ramp location of a ramp is provided. A swarm module causes a host vehicle to join a swarm created to assist the merging vehicle in the merge maneuver. A position module identifies relative positions of the host vehicle and other members of the swarm. An identification module selects a role for the host vehicle based on the relative positions of the host vehicle and the other members of the plurality of members. A constraint module calculates a merge location area based on the relative positions of the host vehicle and the other members of the plurality of members and the ramp location. A cooperative module determines a cooperative action for the host vehicle based on the role of the host vehicle and the merge location area.
