FIG. 2 is a flow chart illustrating a method of controlling fleet travel in accordance with another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure; referring to fig. 2, the method may include the steps of:
step 201, a team formation request sent by a plurality of vehicles is received.
The team formation request comprises a driving path, a first driving direction and a current first position of the vehicle, wherein the first position is the position where the team formation request is sent.
For example, if a vehicle is going to start from point a to point C and end the route, the driving route may be from point a to point B via a link a, and then from point B to point C via a link B; accordingly, the first traveling direction may be a direction from the a point to the B point, or a direction from the a point to the C point; the first position is the current position of the vehicle, for example, between point a and point C, near point a at 2 KM.
Step 202, determining a plurality of to-be-determined target vehicles including the same driving road section in the driving path from the plurality of vehicles.
And when the pending target vehicle sends the team formation request, the pending target vehicles all run on the same running road section.
For example, if the driving route of the vehicle a is from the point a to the point B, and then from the point B to the point C, the vehicle a is driven by the vehicle a at 9 a.m.: 10 to 10:30 on road b; the driving path of the vehicle B is that the vehicle A passes through the road section C to the point D, then passes through the road section D from the point D to the point B, then passes through the road section B from the point B to the point C, and the vehicle B is driven by the vehicle B in a speed ratio of 9: 05 to 10:30 on road b; the driving route of the vehicle C is that the vehicle C passes through a road section E to a road section F from the point E, then passes through a road section F to a point B from the point F, then passes through a road section B to the point C from the point B, and the vehicle C is driven to move along the following route in 9 am: 15 to 10:40 on road b; the driving route of the vehicle D is that the vehicle C passes through the road section B to the point B, then passes through the road section a from the point B to the point A, and the vehicle D is driven by the vehicle D in a speed ratio of 9: driving on a section b from 00 to 10: 50; then since at 9: and 20, when the team formation request is sent, the A vehicle, the B vehicle, the C vehicle and the D vehicle all run on the B road section, so that the A vehicle, the B vehicle, the C vehicle and the D vehicle are the target vehicles to be determined.
Step 203, determining the pending target vehicle with the same first driving direction as the target vehicle.
Wherein the target vehicle includes a lead vehicle and a following vehicle, the lead vehicle may adopt a manual driving mode of an autonomous vehicle, and the lead vehicle may adopt an intelligent driving mode of the autonomous vehicle.
For example, still taking the a vehicle, the B vehicle, the C vehicle and the D vehicle as an example in the above step 202 as an example, since the traveling directions of the a vehicle, the B vehicle and the C vehicle in the pending target vehicle are all from the point B to the point C, and the traveling direction of the D vehicle is from the point C to the point B, the traveling direction of the D vehicle is different from the traveling directions of the a vehicle, the B vehicle and the C vehicle, so that the target vehicle includes only the a vehicle, the B vehicle and the C vehicle, and does not include the D vehicle.
And 204, according to the first positions of the target vehicles, taking the target vehicle which is most front in the first traveling direction as a leading vehicle of the first target fleet, and taking other vehicles except the leading vehicle in the target vehicles as following vehicles of the first target fleet.
It should be noted that, in this step, the target vehicles may be sorted from the first end to the second end of the first traveling direction according to the first positions of the plurality of target vehicles, and a number corresponding to each target vehicle may be generated according to the sorting; determining the target vehicle corresponding to a first number in the numbers as the leading vehicle, and determining other target vehicles except the leading vehicle in the target vehicles as the following vehicles, wherein when the first end is a starting end, the second end is a terminal end, and the first number is a number corresponding to a vehicle closest to the second end; when the first end is an end point end, the second end is a start point end, and the first number is the number corresponding to the vehicle closest to the first end.
For example, the first position of the vehicle a is between the location B and the location C, and is close to the location B by 2KM, and the first position of the vehicle B is between the location B and the location C, and is close to the location B by 1 KM; the first position of the vehicle C is between the point B and the point C, and is close to the point B by 1.5KM, so that in the direction of travel from the point B to the point C, the vehicle B is closest to the point C, then the vehicle C, and finally the vehicle a, so that the vehicle B can be determined as a guidance vehicle for guiding the vehicle C and the vehicle a to travel.
Step 205, obtaining the current position information and the current speed information of each target vehicle in the first target fleet.
Wherein the current location information is the real-time location of the target vehicle after the team formation request is sent; the current speed information is the real-time location of the target vehicle after the fleet request is sent.
And step 206, sending guiding indication information to the guiding vehicle according to the current position information and the current speed information of each target vehicle, and sending following indication information to the following vehicle, so that the guiding vehicle guides the following vehicle to run on the motorcade running section according to the guiding indication information, and the following vehicle follows the front vehicle of the following vehicle to run according to the following indication information.
Wherein the guidance indication information may include: the system comprises a motorcade running road section, a first number of a guide vehicle, the number of following vehicles in the motorcade and guide indication information, wherein the guide indication information is used for reminding a driver of the guide vehicle of being in a motorcade guide state currently; the following indication information includes: the following indication is used for indicating the following vehicle to run according to the current position information and the current speed information of the preceding vehicle so as to keep the running distance with the preceding vehicle as the target distance, and the motorcade running section is a common running section of all target vehicles.

Thus, the building of the first target vehicle fleet is completed through the methods described in step 201 to step 206, and after the building of the first target vehicle fleet is completed, if there are also free vehicles outside the first target vehicle fleet that want to join the vehicle fleet, the steps shown in fig. 3 are performed, referring to fig. 3, where fig. 3 is a flowchart of a method for controlling the traveling of the vehicle fleet according to the embodiment shown in fig. 2 of the present disclosure; the method may comprise the steps of:
step 207, receiving a joining fleet request sent by a free vehicle outside the first target fleet.
Wherein the joining fleet request includes a second location and a second direction of travel at which the free vehicle is currently located.
It should be noted that the second position is a position where the free vehicle transmits the request for joining the fleet, and the second driving direction may be a direction from the starting position to the ending position.
In step 208, the free vehicle is determined to be a vehicle in the first target fleet when the second direction of travel is determined to be the same as the first direction of travel and the second location belongs to a fleet travel segment.
It should be noted that, for a specific implementation of taking the free vehicle as the vehicle in the first target fleet, reference is made to the implementation described in step 103 in fig. 1, and also reference may be made to the methods described in step 204 to step 206 in fig. 2, which are not described herein again.
According to the technical scheme, the free vehicles outside the first target motorcade can be timely and effectively added into the motorcade, effective control can be integrally implemented on the motorcade, and the reliability of cooperative driving of the motorcade can be effectively improved.
The method implements the process of joining a free vehicle to the first target fleet through steps 207 and 208, and if a team member vehicle in the first target fleet needs to leave the first target fleet after the fleet is completed, the method can leave the team member vehicle through the steps of fig. 4 below, see fig. 4, which is a flowchart of another method for controlling the fleet according to the embodiment of fig. 2 of the present disclosure; the method may comprise the steps of:
step 209, upon receiving a departure request sent by a team member vehicle in the first target fleet, determines whether the team member vehicle is a tail car in the first target fleet.
The team member vehicle is any one of the target vehicles, and the tail vehicle is the target vehicle farthest from the end point of the driving road section of the first target team.
In this step, if it is determined that the team member vehicle is not the tail vehicle in the first target fleet, step 210 is executed; if the target team member vehicle is determined to be the trailer, step 211 is executed.
And step 210, when the number of the target vehicles behind the team member vehicle in the first target team is greater than or equal to a preset number threshold, taking the target vehicles behind the team member vehicle as vehicles of a second target team, controlling the second target team to run, and sending a departure indication to the team member vehicle.
