Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
When the acquired lane line information is determined to be invalid, the motion information of the front vehicle of the vehicle is converted into a coordinate system of the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle, the relative motion information of the front vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle is obtained, and therefore the nearest vehicle ahead of the vehicle is determined based on the running speed of the vehicle and the relative motion information of the front vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle, so that the longitudinal speed of the vehicle is controlled. Therefore, the invention can be seen in that the motion information of the front vehicle of the vehicle is converted into the coordinate system of the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle, so that the nearest front vehicle of the vehicle is determined under the condition that the lane line information is invalid, and the scheme is simultaneously suitable for the condition that the vehicle is in a straight line and a curve track.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention discloses a flowchart of a method for determining a vehicle nearest to a leading vehicle, the method including the steps of:
step S101, acquiring motion information of the vehicle, recording the motion information as first motion information, motion information of a vehicle ahead of the vehicle, recording the motion information as second motion information and lane line information;
it should be noted that the "first" of the "first motion information" and the "second" of the "second motion information" in this step are merely used to distinguish the motion information of the host vehicle from the motion information of the preceding vehicle, and do not require or suggest any such actual relationship or order between the motion information of the host vehicle and the motion information of the preceding vehicle.
Specifically, the first motion information of the host vehicle includes: travel speed and yaw rate. In practical applications, the speed sensor mounted on the vehicle may be used to obtain the traveling speed of the vehicle, and the angular velocity sensor mounted on the vehicle may be used to obtain the yaw rate of the vehicle.
The second operation information of the preceding vehicle includes: the longitudinal distance, the transverse distance and the longitudinal relative speed of the front vehicle and the host vehicle.
The lane line information includes: lane line recognition, lane line position, heading angle, curvature, and curvature change rate.
In practical application, the camera and the radar mounted on the vehicle can be used to obtain the motion information and lane line information of the vehicle ahead, which may be referred to a mature scheme in the prior art, and are not described herein again.
Step S102, judging whether the lane line information is valid, if not, executing step S103;
it should be noted that whether the lane line information is valid or not means: whether the lane line information exists, is complete and accurate or not, and when the lane line information exists, is complete and accurate, the lane line information is judged to be effective; on the contrary, when the lane line information satisfies: and when any one or more of the three conditions of non-existence, incompleteness and inaccuracy exist, judging that the lane line information is invalid.
Step S103, obtaining the curvature radius of the vehicle fixed-curvature running path based on the first motion information;
in practical applications, the vehicle travel path may be regarded as a constant-curvature travel path, and therefore, the curvature radius of the constant-curvature travel path of the vehicle may be estimated based on the motion information of the vehicle.
The curvature radius R of the vehicle constant-curvature running path is calculated according to the following formula (1), wherein the formula (1) is as follows:
R=VehSpd/Yawrate(1);
where VehSpd is the traveling speed of the vehicle and Yawrate is the yaw rate of the vehicle.
Step S104, based on the curvature radius, converting the second motion information into a coordinate system of the vehicle constant-curvature running path to obtain relative motion information of the front vehicle relative to the vehicle constant-curvature running path;
the relative movement information of the preceding vehicle with respect to the constant-curvature travel path of the own vehicle includes: longitudinal curve distance, transverse straight line distance, and longitudinal velocity.
Specifically, referring to fig. 2, an exemplary distance conversion diagram of a leading vehicle when the vehicle is in a curved track is disclosed, where 1 in fig. 2 is the vehicle, 2 is the leading vehicle, a black bold curve is a vehicle constant curvature driving path estimated from the driving speed VehSpd of the vehicle and the yaw rate of the vehicle, and a formula for calculating the curvature radius R of the vehicle constant curvature driving path refers to formula (1).
Suppose that the longitudinal distance between the front vehicle 2 and the host vehicle 1 is x, the lateral distance is y, and the longitudinal relative velocity is vxTransverse relative velocity vy
The motion information of the front vehicle relative to the vehicle constant-curvature running path comprises the following components: longitudinal curve distance xalignThe transverse straight-line distance is yalignAnd a longitudinal velocity vx_align
According to the formula (2), the transverse position deviation y between the vehicle and the front vehicle in the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle is calculatedoffsetEquation (2) is as follows:
yoffser=abs(R-y) (2);
where abs (R-y) is a function of the absolute value of the difference between (R-y).
Calculating an included angle theta between a connecting line of the center of the front vehicle and the center of the circle of the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle and the horizontal direction according to a formula (3), wherein the formula (3) is as follows:
θ=arctan(x/yoffset)(3);
according to the formula (4), calculating the longitudinal curve distance x of the front vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehiclealignEquation (4) is as follows:
xalign=abs(R)×θ (4);
where abs (R) is a function of the absolute value of R.
According to the formula (5), the transverse straight-line distance y of the front vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle is calculatedalignEquation (5) is as follows:
Figure BDA0001930801290000091
wherein sign (R) is a sign function of the radius of curvature R.
According to the formula (6), the longitudinal speed v of the front vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle is calculatedx_alignEquation (6) is as follows:
vx_align=vx·cosθ+vy·sinθ·sign(R) (6)。
it should be noted that although fig. 2 shows a schematic diagram of distance conversion of a preceding vehicle in a case where the host vehicle is in a curved track, the diagram shown in fig. 2 is not only applicable to a case where the host vehicle is in a curved track, but also applicable to a case where the host vehicle is in a straight track, and when the host vehicle is in a straight track, the yaw rate of the host vehicle is an extremely small value, and the curvature radius R calculated according to the formula (1) is an extremely large value, so that the black bold curve in fig. 2 is approximated to a straight line.
Step S105, the nearest vehicle in front of the vehicle is determined based on the running speed of the vehicle and the relative motion information of the preceding vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle.
In practical applications, the nearest vehicle ahead of the vehicle may be determined by using the longitudinal curve distance between the vehicle ahead of the vehicle and the vehicle; the nearest vehicle ahead of the host vehicle may be determined by using the longitudinal collision time of the vehicle ahead of the host vehicle with respect to the constant-curvature travel path of the host vehicle.
As can be seen from the above, in the method for determining the nearest leading vehicle disclosed in the present invention, when it is determined that the acquired lane line information is invalid, the motion information of the leading vehicle of the own vehicle is converted into the coordinate system of the constant-curvature travel path of the own vehicle, the relative motion information of the leading vehicle with respect to the constant-curvature travel path of the own vehicle is obtained, and the nearest leading vehicle of the own vehicle is determined based on the travel speed of the own vehicle and the relative motion information of the leading vehicle with respect to the constant-curvature travel path of the own vehicle, so as to control the longitudinal speed of the own vehicle. Therefore, the invention can be seen in that the motion information of the front vehicle of the vehicle is converted into the coordinate system of the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle, so that the nearest front vehicle of the vehicle is determined under the condition that the lane line information is invalid, and the scheme is simultaneously suitable for the condition that the vehicle is in a straight line and a curve track.
Based on the above discussion, in practical applications, the nearest on-path front vehicle of the host vehicle can be determined by using the longitudinal curve distance between the front vehicle of the host vehicle and the host vehicle; the nearest vehicle ahead of the host vehicle may also be determined by using the longitudinal collision time of the vehicle ahead of the host vehicle with respect to the constant-curvature running path of the host vehicle, and therefore, step S105 may specifically include:
(1) when the running speed of the vehicle is in the preset speed interval, the maximum speed value in the preset speed interval is a speed threshold value, the longitudinal curve distance of the front vehicle of the vehicle is compared, and the front vehicle with the shortest longitudinal curve distance is determined as the nearest front vehicle in the path of the vehicle.
In this embodiment, the predetermined speed interval is determined according to the actual requirement, such as [0, 10] m/s.
As can be seen from step S104, in the present invention, since the relative travel information of all the preceding vehicles with respect to the vehicle constant-curvature travel path is obtained by converting the second travel information of all the preceding vehicles of the vehicle into the coordinate system of the vehicle constant-curvature travel path, the longitudinal curve distances of the preceding vehicles of the vehicle are compared to determine the longitudinal threat degree of each preceding vehicle to the vehicle, and when the longitudinal curve distance between a certain preceding vehicle and the vehicle is shortest, it indicates that the threat made by the preceding vehicle to the vehicle is the greatest, in this case, the preceding vehicle with the shortest longitudinal curve distance is determined as the nearest preceding vehicle to the vehicle. In practical application, the longitudinal speed of the vehicle can be controlled, so that the vehicle and the nearest vehicle in front of the vehicle keep a preset safe distance.
When the running speed of the vehicle is in the preset speed interval and only one vehicle is in front of the vehicle, the vehicle is determined as the nearest vehicle in front of the vehicle.
(2) When the running speed of the vehicle is greater than the speed threshold value, calculating the longitudinal collision time ttc of the front vehicle of the vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle according to the formula (7)xEquation (7) is as follows:
ttcx=xalign/vx_align
(7);
in the formula, xalignThe longitudinal curve distance, v, of the leading vehicle relative to the path of constant curvature of the vehiclex_alignThe longitudinal speed of the front vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the self vehicle.
And comparing the sizes of the longitudinal collision time obtained by calculation, and determining the front vehicle with the shortest longitudinal collision time as the nearest front vehicle in the path of the vehicle.
When the running speed of the vehicle is greater than the speed threshold value and only one vehicle exists in front of the vehicle, the vehicle is determined as the nearest vehicle in front of the vehicle.
When the traveling speed of the host vehicle is high, in order to improve the traveling safety, the nearest vehicle ahead of the host vehicle is determined by using the longitudinal collision time of the host vehicle with respect to the constant-curvature traveling path of the host vehicle, instead of determining the nearest vehicle ahead of the host vehicle simply based on the longitudinal curve distance between the host vehicle ahead of the host vehicle and the host vehicle.
The value of the speed threshold is determined according to actual needs, for example, 10m/s, and the invention is not limited herein.
In summary, the present invention adopts different schemes for determining the nearest vehicle ahead of the own vehicle for the own vehicles in different speed intervals, and when the speed of the own vehicle is slow, the nearest vehicle ahead of the own vehicle can be determined simply by using the longitudinal curve distance between the own vehicle ahead and the own vehicle; on the contrary, when the speed of the vehicle is higher, in order to improve the driving safety, the invention utilizes the longitudinal collision time of the front vehicle of the vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle to determine the nearest front vehicle of the vehicle, both the two schemes are suitable for the situation that the vehicle is in a straight line and a curve track, compared with the traditional scheme that the nearest front vehicle of the vehicle is determined simply according to the longitudinal distance between the vehicle and the front vehicle, the invention greatly improves the reliability of determining the nearest front vehicle, thereby providing a basis for improving the control precision of the vehicle and reducing the collision risk between the vehicles.
In the above-described embodiment, when the lane line information is valid, that is, when the lane line information is present, complete, and accurate, the nearest leading vehicle of the host vehicle may be determined based on the lane line information.
Therefore, to further optimize the above embodiment, when the step S102 determines that the lane line information is invalid, the vehicle selection method may further include the steps of:
and step S106, determining the nearest vehicle ahead of the vehicle based on the lane line information.
Specifically, when the vehicle is a straight-line driving path, under the condition that there is lane line information, the nearest vehicle ahead of the vehicle in the path may be determined simply according to the longitudinal distance between the vehicle and the vehicle ahead, which may be referred to in the existing mature scheme, and is not described herein again.
When the host vehicle is a curved track traveling path, the candidate leading vehicles can be determined by using the position, the direction angle, the curvature change rate and the lane line recognition degree in the lane line information, and whether the lateral straight-line distance of the leading vehicle relative to the host vehicle is located in the middle of the lateral distances of two boundaries of the lane lines, and then the nearest leading vehicle of the host vehicle can be determined from the candidate leading vehicles by adopting the schemes in the steps S103 to S105 according to the second motion information of the candidate leading vehicles and the first motion information of the host vehicle.
It can be understood that, during the driving process of the vehicle, some disturbing vehicles cannot be avoided on the driving path, and the disturbing vehicles can repeatedly cut into the detection range of the sensor of the vehicle, so that the repeated vehicles are mistakenly cut into the vehicle which is the closest vehicle ahead, and the closest vehicle ahead is frequently switched, so that the vehicle is frequently braked or decelerated, and the driving comfort is reduced.
Based on this, the present invention determines the nearest vehicle ahead of the own vehicle based on the embodiment shown in fig. 1, and then further determines the driving stability of the nearest vehicle ahead.
Therefore, the step S105 may specifically include:
according to the running speed and the relative motion information of the vehicle, increasing the characteristic value of the front vehicle with the shortest longitudinal collision time by a preset amplitude value, and simultaneously reducing the characteristic value of the front vehicle with the shortest non-longitudinal collision time by the preset amplitude value;
and selecting the front vehicle with the maximum characteristic value as the nearest front vehicle in the path of the vehicle.
The process of selecting the leading vehicle with the largest characteristic value as the nearest leading vehicle in the path of the vehicle may include:
counting the number of times that each preceding vehicle becomes the nearest preceding vehicle in the vehicle in each adjacent period after the preset number of adjacent periods are ended, and rejecting the preceding vehicles of which the occurrence number is lower than the preset number of times and the characteristic values after the preset number of adjacent periods are ended are not the maximum value among the characteristic values of each preceding vehicle;
and selecting the front vehicle with the maximum characteristic value after the preset number of adjacent cycles are ended as the nearest front vehicle in the path of the vehicle.
Wherein adjacent periods refer to two adjacent sampling periods.
For example, it is assumed that the initial value of the feature value of each nearest vehicle ahead is 0, the preset amplitude is 2, and the preset number of adjacent cycles is 5.
When a certain preceding vehicle of the host vehicle is determined as the nearest preceding vehicle of the host vehicle in the first sampling period, the feature value of the nearest preceding vehicle is added by 2.
In a second sampling period, adopting the embodiment shown in fig. 1, when the nearest vehicle ahead of the vehicle is determined again, judging whether the nearest vehicle ahead of the vehicle determined in the second sampling period and the nearest vehicle ahead of the vehicle determined in the first sampling period are the same vehicle ahead, if so, adding 2 again to the feature value of the nearest vehicle ahead of the vehicle determined in the first sampling period; and if not, adding 2 to the characteristic value of the vehicle in front of the nearest path determined by the second sampling period, and subtracting 2 from the characteristic value of the vehicle in front of the nearest path determined by the first sampling period.
Since adjacent periods refer to two adjacent sampling periods, the first sampling period and the second sampling period in the present embodiment may be referred to as one adjacent period.
This is repeated until the number of adjacent cycles reaches 5, and the preceding vehicle having the largest feature value is set as the nearest preceding vehicle of the own vehicle, so that the own vehicle performs longitudinal vehicle speed control based on the target nearest preceding vehicle.
Therefore, the invention effectively avoids the situation that the vehicle is frequently braked or decelerated before the vehicle is in the path due to the frequent switching of the vehicle in the near distance caused by the existence of the disturbance vehicle in the driving process of the vehicle, thereby improving the driving comfort level.
Corresponding to the embodiment of the method, the invention also discloses a system for determining the nearest vehicle ahead of the vehicle.
Referring to fig. 3, a schematic structural diagram of a system for determining a nearest vehicle ahead of a route according to an embodiment of the present invention is disclosed, and the system includes:
an obtaining unit 201, configured to obtain motion information of a host vehicle, and record the motion information as first motion information, motion information of a vehicle ahead of the host vehicle, and record the motion information as second motion information, and lane line information;
it should be noted that the "first" of the "first motion information" and the "second" of the "second motion information" in the present embodiment are merely used to distinguish the motion information of the host vehicle from the motion information of the preceding vehicle, and do not require or suggest any such actual relationship or order between the motion information of the host vehicle and the motion information of the preceding vehicle.
Specifically, the first motion information of the host vehicle includes: travel speed and yaw rate. In practical applications, the speed sensor mounted on the vehicle may be used to obtain the traveling speed of the vehicle, and the angular velocity sensor mounted on the vehicle may be used to obtain the yaw rate of the vehicle.

The lane line information includes: lane line recognition, lane line position, heading angle, curvature, and curvature change rate.
In practical application, the camera and the radar mounted on the vehicle can be used to obtain the motion information and lane line information of the vehicle ahead, which may be referred to a mature scheme in the prior art, and are not described herein again.
A first judging unit 202, configured to judge whether the lane line information is valid;
it should be noted that whether the lane line information is valid or not means: whether the lane line information exists, is complete and accurate or not, and when the lane line information exists, is complete and accurate, the lane line information is judged to be effective; on the contrary, when the lane line information satisfies: and when any one or more of the three conditions of non-existence, incompleteness and inaccuracy exist, judging that the lane line information is invalid.
A curvature radius obtaining unit 203 for obtaining a curvature radius of the own vehicle fixed-curvature traveling path based on the first motion information in a case where the first judging unit 202 judges no;
in practical applications, the vehicle travel path may be regarded as a constant-curvature travel path, and therefore, the curvature radius of the constant-curvature travel path of the vehicle may be estimated based on the motion information of the vehicle.
The curvature radius R of the vehicle constant-curvature running path is calculated according to the following formula (1), wherein the formula (1) is as follows:
R=VehSpd/Yawrate (1);
where VehSpd is the traveling speed of the vehicle and Yawrate is the yaw rate of the vehicle.
A relative motion information obtaining unit 204, configured to convert the second motion information into a coordinate system of the vehicle constant-curvature traveling path based on the curvature radius, and obtain relative motion information of the leading vehicle relative to the vehicle constant-curvature traveling path;
the relative motion information includes: longitudinal curve distance, transverse straight line distance, and longitudinal velocity.
The relative movement information of the preceding vehicle with respect to the constant-curvature travel path of the own vehicle includes: longitudinal curve distance, transverse straight line distance, and longitudinal velocity.
Specifically, referring to fig. 2, an exemplary distance conversion diagram of a leading vehicle when the vehicle is in a curved track is disclosed, where 1 in fig. 2 is the vehicle, 2 is the leading vehicle, a black bold curve is a vehicle constant curvature driving path estimated from the driving speed VehSpd of the vehicle and the yaw rate of the vehicle, and a formula for calculating the curvature radius R of the vehicle constant curvature driving path refers to formula (1).
Suppose that the longitudinal distance between the front vehicle 2 and the host vehicle 1 is x, the lateral distance is y, and the longitudinal relative velocity is vxTransverse relative velocity vy
The motion information of the front vehicle relative to the vehicle constant-curvature running path comprises the following components: longitudinal curve distance xalignThe transverse straight-line distance is yalignAnd a longitudinal velocity vx_align
According to the formula (2), the transverse position deviation y between the vehicle and the front vehicle in the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle is calculatedoffsetEquation (2) is as follows:
yoffset=abs(R-y) (2);
where abs (R-y) is a function of the absolute value of the difference between (R-y).
Calculating an included angle theta between a connecting line of the center of the front vehicle and the center of the circle of the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle and the horizontal direction according to a formula (3), wherein the formula (3) is as follows:
θ=arctan(x/yoffset) (3);
according to the formula (4), calculating the longitudinal curve distance x of the front vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehiclealignEquation (4) is as follows:
xalign=abs(R)×θ (4);
where abs (R) is a function of the absolute value of R.
According to the formula (5), the transverse straight-line distance y of the front vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle is calculatedalignEquation (5) is as follows:
Figure BDA0001930801290000161
wherein sign (R) is a sign function of the radius of curvature R.
According to the formula (6), the longitudinal speed v of the front vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle is calculatedx_alignEquation (6) is as follows:
vx_align=vx·cosθ+vy·sinθ·sign(R) (6)。
it should be noted that although fig. 2 shows a schematic diagram of distance conversion of a preceding vehicle in a case where the host vehicle is in a curved track, the diagram shown in fig. 2 is not only applicable to a case where the host vehicle is in a curved track, but also applicable to a case where the host vehicle is in a straight track, and when the host vehicle is in a straight track, the yaw rate of the host vehicle is an extremely small value, and the curvature radius R calculated according to the formula (1) is an extremely large value, so that the black bold curve in fig. 2 is a straight line.
The first nearest leading vehicle determination unit 205 is configured to determine a nearest leading vehicle of the host vehicle based on the traveling speed and the relative motion information of the host vehicle.
In practical applications, the nearest vehicle ahead of the vehicle may be determined by using the longitudinal curve distance between the vehicle ahead of the vehicle and the vehicle; the nearest vehicle ahead of the host vehicle may be determined by using the longitudinal collision time of the vehicle ahead of the host vehicle with respect to the constant-curvature travel path of the host vehicle.
As can be seen from the above, in the system for identifying a nearest leading vehicle according to the present invention, when it is determined that the acquired lane line information is invalid, the motion information of the leading vehicle of the host vehicle is converted into the coordinate system of the constant-curvature travel path of the host vehicle, and the relative motion information of the leading vehicle with respect to the constant-curvature travel path of the host vehicle is obtained, so that the nearest leading vehicle of the host vehicle is identified based on the travel speed of the host vehicle and the relative motion information of the leading vehicle with respect to the constant-curvature travel path of the host vehicle, and the longitudinal speed of the host vehicle is controlled. Therefore, the invention can be seen in that the motion information of the front vehicle of the vehicle is converted into the coordinate system of the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle, so that the nearest front vehicle of the vehicle is determined under the condition that the lane line information is invalid, and the scheme is simultaneously suitable for the condition that the vehicle is in a straight line and a curve track.
Based on the above discussion, in practical applications, the nearest on-path front vehicle of the host vehicle can be determined by using the longitudinal curve distance between the front vehicle of the host vehicle and the host vehicle; the longitudinal collision time of the vehicle ahead of the host vehicle with respect to the vehicle constant-curvature traveling path may also be used to determine the nearest ahead vehicle of the host vehicle, and the first nearest ahead vehicle determining unit 205 may be specifically configured to: when the running speed of the vehicle is in a preset speed interval, comparing the longitudinal curve distance of the front vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle, and determining the front vehicle with the shortest longitudinal curve distance as the nearest front vehicle of the vehicle;
and the maximum speed value in the preset speed interval is a speed threshold value. The preset speed interval depends on the actual requirement, such as [0, 10] m/s.
When the running speed of the vehicle is in the preset speed interval and only one vehicle is in front of the vehicle, the vehicle is determined as the nearest vehicle in front of the vehicle.
The first nearest leading vehicle determining unit 205 may further be specifically configured to:
when the running speed of the vehicle is larger than the speed threshold value, calculating the longitudinal collision time of the front vehicle of the vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle according to the formula (7), wherein the formula (7) is as follows:
ttcx=xalign/vx_align
(7);
in the formula, ttcxAs longitudinal collision time, xalignThe longitudinal curve distance, v, of the leading vehicle relative to the path of constant curvature of the vehiclex_alignThe longitudinal speed of the front vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle is obtained;
and comparing the sizes of the longitudinal collision time obtained by calculation, and determining the front vehicle with the shortest longitudinal collision time as the nearest front vehicle in the path of the vehicle.
When the running speed of the vehicle is greater than the speed threshold value and only one vehicle exists in front of the vehicle, the vehicle is determined as the nearest vehicle in front of the vehicle.
When the traveling speed of the host vehicle is high, in order to improve the traveling safety, the nearest vehicle ahead of the host vehicle is determined by using the longitudinal collision time of the host vehicle with respect to the constant-curvature traveling path of the host vehicle, instead of determining the nearest vehicle ahead of the host vehicle simply based on the longitudinal curve distance between the host vehicle ahead of the host vehicle and the host vehicle.
The value of the speed threshold is determined according to actual needs, for example, 10m/s, and the invention is not limited herein.
In summary, the present invention adopts different schemes for determining the nearest vehicle ahead of the own vehicle for the own vehicles in different speed intervals, and when the speed of the own vehicle is slow, the nearest vehicle ahead of the own vehicle can be determined simply by using the longitudinal curve distance between the own vehicle ahead and the own vehicle; on the contrary, when the speed of the vehicle is higher, in order to improve the driving safety, the invention utilizes the longitudinal collision time of the front vehicle of the vehicle relative to the constant-curvature running path of the vehicle to determine the nearest front vehicle of the vehicle, both the two schemes are suitable for the situation that the vehicle is in a straight line and a curve track, compared with the traditional scheme that the nearest front vehicle of the vehicle is determined simply according to the longitudinal distance between the vehicle and the front vehicle, the invention greatly improves the reliability of determining the nearest front vehicle, thereby providing a basis for improving the control precision of the vehicle and reducing the collision risk between the vehicles.
In the above-described embodiment, when the lane line information is valid, that is, when the lane line information is present, complete, and accurate, the nearest leading vehicle of the host vehicle may be determined based on the lane line information.
Therefore, to further optimize the above embodiment, the system for determining the nearest vehicle ahead of the route may further include:
a second nearest leading vehicle determination unit 206 configured to determine a nearest leading vehicle of the own vehicle based on the lane line information when the first judgment unit 202 judges no.
Specifically, when the vehicle is a straight-line driving path, under the condition that there is lane line information, the nearest vehicle ahead of the vehicle in the path may be determined simply according to the longitudinal distance between the vehicle and the vehicle ahead, which may be referred to in the existing mature scheme, and is not described herein again.
When the host vehicle is a curved trajectory travel path, candidate leading vehicles may be determined using the position, the direction angle, the curvature change rate, and the lane line recognition degree in the lane line information, and whether the lateral straight-line distance of the leading vehicle with respect to the host vehicle is located in the middle of the lateral distances of the two boundaries of the lane lines, and then the nearest leading vehicle of the host vehicle may be determined from the candidate leading vehicles using the schemes in the curvature radius acquisition unit 203, the relative motion information acquisition unit 204, and the first nearest leading vehicle determination unit 205, based on the second motion information of the candidate leading vehicles and the first motion information of the host vehicle.
It can be understood that, during the driving process of the vehicle, some disturbing vehicles cannot be avoided on the driving path, and the disturbing vehicles can repeatedly cut into the detection range of the sensor of the vehicle, so that the vehicle mistakenly cuts into the vehicle as the vehicle in front of the nearest vehicle, thereby causing frequent switching of the vehicle in front of the nearest vehicle, frequently braking or frequently decelerating the vehicle, and further reducing the driving comfort.
Based on this, the present invention determines the nearest vehicle ahead of the own vehicle based on the embodiment shown in fig. 3, and then further determines the driving stability of the nearest vehicle ahead.
Therefore, the first nearest leading vehicle determination unit 205 may include:
the numerical value adjusting subunit is used for increasing the characteristic value of the front vehicle with the shortest longitudinal collision time by a preset amplitude value according to the running speed and the relative motion information of the vehicle, and simultaneously reducing the characteristic value of the front vehicle with the shortest non-longitudinal collision time by the preset amplitude value;
and the selecting subunit is used for selecting the front vehicle with the largest characteristic value as the nearest front vehicle in the path of the vehicle.
Wherein the selecting subunit is specifically configured to:
counting the number of times that each preceding vehicle becomes the nearest preceding vehicle in the vehicle in each adjacent period after the preset number of adjacent periods are ended, and rejecting the preceding vehicles of which the occurrence number is lower than the preset number of times and the characteristic values after the preset number of adjacent periods are ended are not the maximum value among the characteristic values of each preceding vehicle;
and selecting the front vehicle with the maximum characteristic value after the preset number of adjacent cycles are ended as the nearest front vehicle in the path of the vehicle.
Wherein adjacent periods refer to two adjacent sampling periods.
Therefore, the invention effectively avoids the situation that the vehicle is frequently braked or decelerated before the vehicle is in the path due to the frequent switching of the vehicle in the near distance caused by the existence of the disturbance vehicle in the driving process of the vehicle, thereby improving the driving comfort level.
