The embodiment of the invention provides a vehicle control method, a device and a system and a vehicle, which can avoid potential safety hazards caused by the fact that a driver cannot accurately judge the surrounding environment of a first vehicle, and further improve the safety in a lane changing process.
The execution subject of the method provided by the embodiment of the present invention may be a vehicle control device, a vehicle control system, or a vehicle (which may be a first vehicle in the embodiment of the present invention), which may be specifically determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited. The following embodiments exemplify a vehicle control method according to an embodiment of the present invention, taking the execution subject as a vehicle control device as an example.
As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle control method, which may include the following steps S101 and S102.
S101, in the process that a first vehicle drives on a first lane along with a second vehicle, if the first driving time of the first vehicle is longer than or equal to a preset time, a vehicle control device acquires target lane line information and road condition information of a second lane.
The first driving time is the time when the driving speed of the first vehicle is continuously lower than the speed threshold value, the first lane and the second lane are mutually adjacent lanes, and the target lane line information is the information of a lane line between the first lane and the second lane.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the vehicle control device may be provided in the first vehicle.
Alternatively, the vehicle control device may be an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) in the first vehicle.
Optionally, the preset time duration may be a time duration set by default (for example, the preset time duration is set in the vehicle control device when the vehicle control device leaves a factory), or may be a time duration set by a user in a self-defined manner, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
Optionally, the speed threshold may be a specific speed value, where the speed value may be a speed value set by default or a speed value set by a user in a self-defined manner, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.
Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, when the first vehicle travels along with the second vehicle, the first vehicle may travel along with the second vehicle by using a vehicle following logic of adaptive cruise (ACC).
Alternatively, when the first vehicle travels following the second vehicle, the vehicle control device may further acquire position information of a lane line of the first lane, and keep the first vehicle traveling in the middle of the lane according to the position information of the lane line of the first lane.
In the embodiment of the invention, in the process that the first vehicle drives on the first lane along with the second vehicle, under the condition that the first driving time of the first vehicle is longer than or equal to the preset time, the first vehicle is forced to keep driving at a lower speed possibly due to the fact that the speed of the second vehicle is lower, and then the first vehicle can judge that the overtaking requirement exists, so that the vehicle control device can further judge whether the overtaking condition can be met by acquiring the target lane line information and the road condition information of the second lane.
Correspondingly, when the first running time of the first vehicle is less than the preset time, the first vehicle may not have the overtaking requirement, and at the moment, the first vehicle can still be kept running along with the second vehicle.
In the embodiment of the invention, the target lane line information and the road condition information of the second lane can be obtained from the image.
In the embodiment of the invention, the vehicle control device can be connected with the image acquisition device, and the image acquisition device can send the acquired image including the image of the second lane and the acquired image including the image of the lane line between the first lane and the second lane to the vehicle control device, so that the vehicle control device can acquire the target lane line information and the road condition information of the second lane from the images.
Optionally, a map of a current driving road of the first vehicle may be obtained, the target lane line information may be obtained from the map, and the target lane line information obtained from the image may be compared and calibrated according to the target lane line information obtained from the map, so as to avoid that an image of the target lane line cannot be captured due to a limited field of view of the image acquisition device under certain conditions (such as when the first vehicle is too close to the second vehicle or is driving on a curve, or under a rainy weather condition), or that the captured image of the target lane line is blurred, and improve accuracy of obtaining the lane line information.
Generally, in practical applications, when a lane line between two lanes is a broken line, it is characterized as allowing lane change; when the lane line between the two lanes is a solid line, a double yellow line and other lane lines, the lane change is not allowed.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the target lane line information may refer to an identification form (for example, a dotted line) of a lane line between the first lane and the second lane or a meaning indicated by the identification form (for example, lane change permission).
Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the road condition information of the second lane may specifically refer to whether there are vehicles, pedestrians, and other objects in the second lane.
Optionally, the road condition information of the second lane may further include information of movement tracks of vehicles, pedestrians, and other objects in the second lane.
S102, the vehicle control device controls the first vehicle to change the lane from the first lane to the second lane to drive under the condition that the lane change condition is determined to be met according to the target lane line information and the road condition information of the second lane.
Optionally, the vehicle control device may determine whether the lane change condition is satisfied according to the target lane line information and the road condition information of the second lane.
The method for judging whether the lane change condition is met according to the first lane line information and the second lane road condition information by the vehicle control device may include the following steps a, b and c.
a. The vehicle control device determines whether lane change is permitted or not based on the target lane line information.
For example, if the lane line between the first lane and the second lane is determined to be a broken line based on the target lane line information, it may be determined that lane change is permitted, and if the lane line between the first lane and the second lane is determined to be a solid line based on the target lane line information, it may be determined that lane change is not permitted.
b. In the case where the target lane line information indicates that lane change is permitted, the vehicle control apparatus determines whether a lane change space exists in the second lane according to the road condition information of the second lane.
Optionally, the vehicle control device may calculate a safety space in which the first vehicle can safely change lanes in the second lane in the process that the first vehicle changes lanes from the first lane to the second lane, and then determine whether an obstacle exists in the safety space according to the road condition information of the second lane. In the case where no obstacle exists in the safety space, it may be determined that there is a lane change space in the second lane, and in the case where an obstacle exists in the safety space, it may be determined that there is no lane change space in the second lane.
For example, as shown in fig. 2, the secure space is an area B in fig. 2, and the method for calculating the secure space may specifically include:
first, a longitudinal distance S required to be maintained by a rear vehicle from a first vehicle when the first vehicle makes a lane change is calculated according to equation 1 shown belowr(with the center point of the rear axle of the first vehicle as the origin of the coordinate system), equation 1 is as follows:
Figure GDA0002478265410000101
wherein v in formula 1rIndicating the speed, v, of the vehicle behind the first lane0Indicating the current speed of the first vehicle, arRepresenting vehicle acceleration, t, behind the first laneBIndicating driver reaction time, tGAnd the vehicle stable following time length is shown.
Next, the longitudinal distance S that the second vehicle needs to maintain from the first vehicle when the first vehicle changes lanes is calculated according to the following formula 2f(using the center point of the rear axle of the vehicle as the center pointAs the origin of the coordinate system), equation 2 follows:
Figure GDA0002478265410000111
wherein v in formula 2fIndicating the speed of the vehicle ahead of the first lane, a0Representing a first vehicle acceleration, SdefaultA default safe distance is indicated, which is the sum of the length of the first vehicle and the safe distance. The safe distance can be 1 meter, 2 meters or 3 meters and can be set according to actual requirements.
The first vehicle will add, subtract or decelerate with a comfortable acceleration range value, i.e. | a0|≤|acomI, empirically, generally | acomThe value of [ -2, 2 | ]]。
Therefore, the length S of the area B where the vehicle needs to change lanes can be calculatedbComprises the following steps: sb＝Sf+Sr。
The vehicle control apparatus may further determine the size range of the region B in conjunction with the width of the second lane after determining the length of the region B.
Based on the method, the vehicle control device can make different lane changing strategies according to different conditions of the first vehicle in the lane changing process and different road condition information in the area B.
c. In a case where there is a lane change space in the second lane, the vehicle control apparatus determines that the lane change condition is satisfied.
In the embodiment of the invention, after the vehicle control device determines that the lane change condition is satisfied, the first vehicle may be controlled to change the lane from the first lane to the second lane.
