Detailed Description
In the following, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will recognize, the described embodiments may be modified in various different ways, all without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Accordingly, the drawings and description are to be regarded as illustrative in nature, and not as restrictive.
The embodiment of the invention provides a path planning method, which comprises the steps of generating a path planning result based on a starting point and a terminal point, determining an optional lane aiming at lanes contained in the path planning result, obtaining an expanded path planning result based on the optional lane, and finally setting lanes with the same attribute in the expanded path planning result as the same passing area.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, a path planning method is provided, the method comprising:
step 101: generating a path planning result based on the starting point and the end point; wherein, the path planning result comprises at least two lanes; adjacent lanes in the at least two lanes are adjacent in the front and back;
step 102: acquiring an optional lane based on the attribute of each lane and the left-right adjacent relation of each lane in at least two lanes contained in the path planning result; the attribute of the lane comprises a lane-changeable attribute and a lane-unchangeable attribute;
step 103: and adding the selectable lanes to a path planning result to obtain an expanded path planning result, and determining at least one passing area containing lanes with the same attribute in the expanded path planning result.
For the step 101, the generating a path planning result based on the starting point and the end point includes:
and determining a minimum cost path passing through the starting point, the passing point and the end point, and taking at least two lanes contained in the minimum cost path as a path planning result.
The implementation mode of the invention is based on a high-precision map, and realizes the global path planning of the road level. Before processing, a topological graph at a lane level may be established, in which each lane is represented as a node of the directed graph, and the communication relationship between the lanes is the boundary position of each node in the directed graph. When at least one boundary (namely, the left boundary and the right boundary, or one side of the two boundaries between the left lane and the right lane) is set as a dotted line, the lane is characterized as a variable lane attribute, and when both the two boundaries (namely, the left boundary and the right boundary, or the two boundaries between the left lane and the right lane) are solid lines, the lane is represented as an invariable lane attribute. Referring to fig. 2, lanes 1-6 are shown, where each lane shows a direction, that is, each lane is represented as a node of a directed graph, and in addition, since lane 1 cannot change, a boundary between lane 1 and lane 2 is set as a solid line, and lane 2-3 can change, and thus a boundary between lanes 2-3 is set as a dashed line, which is similar to the above, and is not described again.
The foregoing path planning method may be: and according to the starting point, the passing point and the end point given by the path planning request, sequentially searching on the topological graph by adopting a heuristic A-search algorithm to obtain a lane-level planning result.
In the description of the processing flow of the a-search algorithm, the "node" is used to represent the "lane", and the processing of the a-search algorithm is performed by dividing into two segments based on the starting point, the passing point, and the ending point, for example:
taking the lane where the starting point is located as an initial node, and taking the lane where the passing point is located as a target node to process to obtain a first path planning result corresponding to the section; then, the lane where the passing point is located is used as an initial node, and the lane where the end point is located is used as a target node for processing to obtain a corresponding second path planning result; and splicing the first path planning result and the second path planning result to obtain a total path planning result.
In the following, the acquisition of the path planning result of one segment is taken as an example, and it can be understood that the acquisition modes of the path planning results of two segments are the same, and therefore, the description is not repeated. Specifically, the method can be as follows:
creating two tables, wherein an OPEN table stores all generated nodes which are not investigated, a CLOSED table records accessed nodes, an initialized OPEN table stores a search starting point, and the CLOSED table is an empty table.
Taking the node n with the minimum cost f from the OPEN table each time; and f is g + h, g represents the minimum cost of the path between the starting point and the current node, and h represents the heuristic estimation between the current node and the target point.
During searching, if the current node is the same as the target node, the searching is finished; otherwise, for all adjacent nodes X of the current node, if the CLOSED table contains X, continuing to the next adjacent node, otherwise, calculating the cost from the starting point to the target node through the adjacent nodes, and updating the cost from the starting point to X in the OPEN table.
In order to describe the relationship between the lanes, the passing areas, and the roads in the present embodiment, some expressions in the high-precision map are explained below:
in the high-precision map, the high-precision map is divided into several levels, namely a road (road), a passage (passage), namely a passing area, and a lane (lane); fig. 3 shows the inclusion relationship among the above several levels, each road segment includes a plurality of traffic areas, each traffic area includes a plurality of lanes, for example, as shown in fig. 2, a road 1 includes traffic areas 1 and 2, and a traffic area 1 includes lanes 1, 2 and 3; the relationships among other roads, traffic areas and lanes shown in the figure are as described above, and therefore are not described in detail.
Furthermore, the traffic zone is composed of at least one lane, and the length of the parallel traffic zones is the same, i.e. the number of lanes contained in the parallel traffic zones is the same; taking fig. 3 as an example, the traffic areas 1 and 2 are parallel, and each traffic area includes three lanes; the traffic zone 3 contains a different number of lanes than the traffic zones 1, 2.
The attribute of the lane mainly refers to a communication relationship between two adjacent lanes, that is, whether lane change is possible or not, and therefore, different modes can be set for different attributes when a boundary line between two left and right adjacent lanes is represented, as shown in fig. 2, when lane change is possible between two adjacent lanes, that is, the lane is a lane change attribute, and a boundary where lane change is possible is represented as a dotted line, otherwise, the boundary is represented as a solid line, and details are not repeated.
It should be further noted that the attribute of at least one lane included in the same passing area is the same, and then on the high-precision map, the representation manner of the boundary in the same passing area is consistent, for example, the type of the boundary in the passing area can be represented by a line segment type in the high-precision map, that is, the attribute can be used for representing the communication area; wherein the attributes of the traffic zone may include a variable lane attribute and an immutable lane attribute.
In the high-precision map, the scheme provided by this embodiment adopts different representation manners for lanes with different attributes, for example, the boundaries of lanes with variable lane attributes may be expressed by dashed lines, and the boundaries of lanes with non-variable lane attributes may be expressed by solid lines. In this case, there may be a case where one side of a lane can change and the other side cannot change, and the lane is still divided into lanes with variable lane attributes, and when the lane is represented in a high-precision map, a broken line is used to represent the side of the variable lane, and a solid line is used to represent the side of the non-variable lane.
In addition, the lane attributes included in the passing areas are the same, and therefore, the boundary representation manner of the same passing area is also the same, for example, the passing area boundary with the variable lane attribute is represented by a dotted line, and the passing area boundary with the non-variable lane attribute is represented by a solid line. For example, referring to fig. 4, the traffic areas may be divided along the lane direction, only traffic areas 1-7 are shown in the figure, and in fact, more traffic areas may exist in the high-precision map, which is not exhaustive. As shown in the figure, if the traffic area 1 includes the lanes 1 and 2, the lanes 1 and 2 are both lanes with variable lane attributes, the boundary between the lanes 1 and 3 is indicated by a broken line, the boundary between the lanes 2 and 4 is also indicated by a broken line, and the boundary between the traffic areas 1 and 2 is indicated by a broken line. Whereas the traffic zones 2, 3 are not variable lanes, the boundary between the traffic zones 2, 3 is shown as a solid line, and the other traffic zones and lanes are shown as described above and are not exhaustive.
In this embodiment, in the at least one finally generated passing area, each passing area includes at least two lanes with the same attribute, and adjacent lanes in each passing area are adjacent in the front-back direction. That is, when the passing area may be a variable lane attribute or an unchangeable lane attribute, after the above scheme is adopted, since the passing area with the variable lane attribute can be finally formed, and since the passing area is composed of at least two lanes adjacent to each other in front and back, the variable lane area is increased.
Therefore, by adopting the scheme, the lanes with the same attribute can form the passing area with the corresponding attribute in the path planning result on the basis of generating the path planning result; therefore, the longer lane changing area can be obtained when the vehicle adopts the newly generated path planning result, so that the lane changing capability of the unmanned vehicle is improved, and the problem of road retardation is further reduced.
In one embodiment, a method for path planning, as shown in fig. 5, includes:
step 101: generating a path planning result based on the starting point and the end point; wherein, the path planning result comprises at least two lanes; adjacent lanes in the at least two lanes are adjacent in the front and back;
step 1021: selecting a lane with variable lane attributes from at least two lanes contained in the path planning result; taking a left adjacent lane and/or a right adjacent lane of the lane with the variable lane attribute as selectable lanes; the attribute of the lane comprises a lane-changeable attribute and a lane-unchangeable attribute;
step 103: and adding the selectable lanes to a path planning result to obtain an expanded path planning result, and determining at least one passing area containing lanes with the same attribute in the expanded path planning result.
Step 101 in this embodiment is the same as that in the previous embodiment, and is not described again.
Step 1021 is a specific method for acquiring the selectable lane in step 102. That is, at least one lane with variable lane attributes is selected from the path planning results; and then expanding the lane with the variable lane attribute for each selected lane to obtain at least one corresponding selectable lane.
The definition of the lanes related to the variable lane attribute and the representation manner in the high-precision map are described in the foregoing embodiments, and when the lanes are represented, only one edge of the lanes related to the variable lane attribute may be a dotted line, that is, the selected lane may be changed between lanes adjacent to the edge side, and the other edge is a solid line, that is, the selected lane may not be changed between lanes adjacent to the edge side. When determining the selectable lane, the following may be specific:
when lane change is carried out between the lane with the variable lane attribute and the right adjacent lane thereof, the right adjacent lane thereof is taken as an optional lane; and/or when the lane between the lane with the variable lane attribute and the left adjacent lane of the lane is variable, the left adjacent lane of the lane is taken as the selectable lane.
That is, when the left and right sides of the lane with variable lane attributes are dotted lines, the left and right adjacent lanes are both used as selectable lanes; if only one side is a broken line, namely only one side can change lanes, the adjacent lane connected with the changed side is taken as an optional vehicle.
Of course, in addition to the above-described manner, there may be a manner in which the lane with the variable lane attribute, regardless of whether both sides thereof are broken lines, may be used as the selectable lane.
Still further, the extension mentioned in the present embodiment may further include: and selecting the left adjacent lane or the right adjacent lane of the selectable lane as another selectable lane.
That is, the present embodiment may also select a new selectable lane again based on the selectable lane. That is, when performing lane expansion (i.e., selecting an alternative lane), the following may be employed:
regarding the lane with variable lane attributes, taking the left adjacent lane as an optional lane; judging whether lane changing can be performed between the lane and the left adjacent lane of the selectable lane or not based on the selectable lane, if so, taking the left adjacent lane as the selectable lane, and repeating the steps until the lane changing between the selectable lane and the left adjacent lane is determined to be impossible;
then regarding the lane with variable lane attribute, taking the right adjacent lane as an optional lane; and judging whether the lane change of the lane adjacent to the right of the selectable lane is possible or not based on the selectable lane, and if so, taking the lane adjacent to the right of the selectable lane as another selectable lane until the lane change between the selectable lane and the lane adjacent to the right of the selectable lane is impossible.
As the path planning result may include a plurality of lanes with variable lane attributes, each lane may select the selectable lane by using the above processing method, and each lane with variable lane attributes may select at least one selectable lane.
And further, adding the selectable lane to a path planning result to obtain an expanded path planning result. That is, the selected at least one selectable lane is combined with the original path planning result to obtain the expanded path planning result.
To explain with reference to fig. 6, it is assumed that the upper graph of fig. 6 represents the result obtained after step 101 is executed, i.e., the result of planning between points a-B, passes through lanes 1-6; fig. 6 shows a schematic diagram of the optional lanes added to the path planning result after step 102 (or step 1021) is completed, in which three optional lanes, i.e. lanes 1-1, 1-2, and 1-3, are selected based on lane 1, and lane 2 also selects lanes 1-1 to 1-3 as optional lanes; in addition, for the lanes 5 and 6, only one boundary of the lanes 5 and 6 is a dotted line, that is, only the lanes 5 and 6 have a variable lane relationship with the lane 5-1 and the lane 6-1, at this time, further extension selection can be performed to obtain the final selectable lanes 5-1 and 5-2 and the lanes 6-1 and 6-1. In addition, it can be further explained based on fig. 6 that the lanes 5 and 6 can be changed and the lanes can not be changed at any side, but the lanes adjacent to the left and right are added, that is, the final expanded result includes the lane 5-3 and the lane 6-3. Specifically, which processing method is adopted can be set according to actual conditions. It should be further explained with reference to fig. 6 that only the lanes related to the path planning result are shown, and the other lanes are not shown, and do not represent that no lanes are provided at other positions.
Further, after the path planning result is expanded, the selectable lanes in the expanded path planning result can be screened. The screening mode can be that whether the lanes and/or the optional lanes in the planning result on the adjacent road before the lane can be communicated or not is judged, and if not, the lanes and/or the optional lanes can be deleted; for example, along the driving direction of the vehicle, if a certain selectable lane cannot be communicated with a selectable lane in the next adjacent road or a lane planned in the original path planning result, the selectable lane is deleted; as in fig. 6, lanes 1-3, may be connected to alternate lane 2-3 and alternate lane 2-2, and therefore remain, while lanes 2-3 may not be connected across lanes to lane 3, and thus alternate lane 2-3 is eliminated.
In the expanded path planning result, at least two lanes with the same lane attribute may also be divided into the same passing area, for example, in the lower diagram of fig. 6, although the final passing area is not shown in fig. 6, it can be understood that: the lanes 1 and 2 can be divided into the same passing area 1, and the passing area 1 has the same attribute with the lanes, namely lane-changing attribute; in addition, the lane 1-2 and the lane 2-2 can be set as a same passing area which is also a passing area 2 with variable lane attributes; the lanes 3, 4 can be divided into identical traffic areas 3, which traffic areas 3 are adjacent to the passable area 1 in front and behind; the rest will not be described in detail. It should be noted that the number of lanes included in the two right and left adjacent passable areas is the same, and the number of lanes included in the adjacent front and rear passable areas is not necessarily the same.
Finally, it should be noted that, in the foregoing embodiment, the lane with the variable lane attribute is described, and it may be understood that the attribute of the lane is determined to be the variable lane attribute or the non-variable lane attribute based on the communication relationship representation manner between the two lanes adjacent to each other on the left and right in the high-precision map;
there may actually be another lane with a variable lane attribute, that is, it is determined whether the lane is a diverging lane or an merging lane based on a relationship between the lane and its adjacent lanes in the high-precision map, and it is determined that the attribute of the lane is a variable lane attribute or an invariable lane attribute based on the determination result.
The specific manner of the determination may be that, when two lanes exist in front of and adjacent to one lane or two lanes exist in back of one lane, the two lanes in front of and adjacent to one lane may be branched lanes, and it is determined that the two lanes in front of and adjacent to one lane are lanes with variable lane attributes, and the two lanes in back of the one lane may be merging lanes, and may also be lanes with variable lane attributes.
The steps can be applied to the unmanned vehicle and can also be applied to the server, and when the steps are applied to the server, the finally obtained path planning result can be sent to the unmanned vehicle, so that the unmanned vehicle carries out driving control according to the final path planning result.
Therefore, by adopting the scheme, the lanes with the same attribute can form the passing area with the corresponding attribute in the path planning result on the basis of generating the path planning result; therefore, the longer lane changing area can be obtained when the vehicle adopts the newly generated path planning result, so that the lane changing capability of the unmanned vehicle is improved, and the problem of road retardation is further reduced.
