In this paper, we propose a new cooperative driving strategy for connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) at unsignalized intersections. Based on the tree representation of the solution space for the passing order, we combine Monte Carlo tree search (MCTS) and some heuristic rules to find a nearly global-optimal passing order (leaf node) within a very short planning time. Testing results show that this new strategy can keep a good tradeoff between performance and computation flexibility.
