Detailed Description
In order that the above objects, features and advantages of the present invention can be more clearly understood, the present invention will be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the embodiments described are only a few embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not to be construed as limiting the invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the described embodiments of the invention, are within the scope of the invention.
It is noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second," and the like, may be used solely to distinguish one entity or action from another entity or action without necessarily requiring or implying any actual such relationship or order between such entities or actions.
As background art, in the prior art, an unmanned vehicle mainly relies on a GPS to locate a vehicle, but when the unmanned vehicle travels in a tunnel, a GPS signal is very weak, which may cause the unmanned vehicle to fail to implement a locating function, and even affect the implementation of an automatic driving function. In view of the above, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a positioning scheme for an unmanned vehicle in a tunnel, which can position the vehicle traveling in the tunnel without using GPS.
The positioning scheme of the unmanned vehicle in the tunnel provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can be applied to the unmanned vehicle and can also be applied to the manual driving vehicle. In addition, the positioning scheme of the unmanned vehicle in the tunnel provided by the embodiment of the disclosure is also suitable for positioning the vehicle running in the bridge opening.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a method for locating an unmanned vehicle in a tunnel according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method may be performed by a vehicle, a server, and a radar system disposed within a tunnel.
In the application, the radar systems can be installed at any position in the tunnel, and any positive integer number of radar systems can be installed in the same tunnel. This is not limited by the present application. Optionally, the radar system is installed in a tunnel in an unobstructed position so that the range that the radar system can scan is large enough. Fig. 2 is a top view of an inner area and a surrounding area of a tunnel according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 2, the radar system a is installed at the center of the top of the tunnel B, and the distance between the radar system a and the entrance and exit at the left and right sides of the tunnel B is the same, and the boundary line D of the two-way lane passes through the vertical projection of the radar system a on the ground. The essence that sets up like this is that the system installs radar system in the inside system high point of tunnel B, reduces the probability that the detection ripples that radar system sent are sheltered from, is favorable to making radar system A have enough big scannable range, and then reduces radar system A's installation number to reduce installation cost.
It should be noted that, in order to enable the unmanned vehicle driving at any position in the tunnel to be located, the scannable range of the radar system should cover the whole tunnel in the actual setting. When the length of the tunnel is larger than the maximum size of the scannable range of a single radar system, a plurality of radar systems may be arranged along the direction of extension of the tunnel.
The positioning method of the unmanned vehicle in the tunnel comprises the following steps:
and S110, the radar system collects vehicle distribution position information in real time and sends the vehicle distribution position information to a cloud server.
In this application, the radar system needs to have not only a ranging function but also a function capable of identifying the orientation of the target. The radar system may be, for example, a lidar.
Optionally, the vehicle distribution location information includes actual location information of all vehicles within the tunnel. The actual position information of the vehicle refers to position coordinates of the vehicle in the geography, and for example, the actual position information of the vehicle is represented by longitude and latitude.
It should be noted that, in practice, it may happen that the scannable range of the radar system covers not only the entire tunnel but also the road outside the tunnel, and in this case, the vehicle distribution position information includes the actual position information of all the vehicles in the tunnel and the actual position information of the vehicles on the road outside the tunnel in a certain range.
The principle of the radar system for collecting the vehicle distribution position information is that the laser radar comprises a detection signal sending component and a detection signal receiving component. The detection signal sending part of the laser radar is used for sending detection signals (such as laser beams) to vehicles in the tunnel, then the detection signal receiving part compares the received signals (also called target echoes) reflected from the vehicles with the sent detection signals, and after proper processing, information related to the vehicles can be obtained, such as the distance between the vehicles and the laser radar, the direction of the vehicles relative to the laser radar, the speed of the vehicles even the shape of the vehicles and other parameters. Based on the distance of the vehicle from the lidar and the orientation of the vehicle relative to the lidar, relative position information of the vehicle and the radar system may be derived.
Therefore, optionally, the implementation method of this step includes: the radar system collects the relative position information of each vehicle and the radar system in real time; determining actual position information of each vehicle based on the relative position information of each vehicle and the radar system and the actual position information of the radar; and obtaining vehicle distribution position information based on the actual position information of each vehicle. Here, the actual location information of the radar refers to the location coordinates of the radar in the geography, for example, the actual location information of the radar is characterized by latitude and longitude.
And S120, the vehicle to be positioned sends a positioning request to the cloud server.
And S130, responding to the positioning request, and sending vehicle distribution position information to the vehicle to be positioned by the cloud server.
S140, determining the actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned based on the vehicle distribution position information.
The implementation method of this step has a variety of methods, and exemplarily, if the vehicle distribution position information only includes the actual position information of one vehicle, it may be considered that the vehicle included in the vehicle distribution position information is the vehicle to be positioned, and therefore, the actual position information of the vehicle included in the vehicle distribution position information may be used as the actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned.
If the vehicle distribution position information comprises the actual position information of at least two vehicles; when the step is executed, the corresponding relationship between the vehicle to be positioned and the vehicles in the vehicle distribution position information needs to be determined, that is, the vehicle to be positioned is uniquely identified as the vehicle in the tunnel among all vehicles in the tunnel, and then the actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned is determined based on the corresponding relationship.
Illustratively, the vehicle distribution location information includes actual location information of at least two vehicles; the method for determining the actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned based on the vehicle distribution position information comprises the following steps: a vehicle to be positioned acquires driving information; the vehicle to be positioned determines the corresponding relation between the vehicle to be positioned and the vehicle in the vehicle distribution position information based on the running information and the vehicle distribution position information; and determining the actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned based on the corresponding relation. The driving information comprises relative position information of the vehicle to be positioned and surrounding vehicles, the vehicle speed, the driving time, the lane where the vehicle is located, the last positioning result and the like. The driving information is acquired based on sensors integrated on the unmanned vehicle, such as a laser radar, a millimeter wave radar, a camera, a speed sensor and the like. In practice, the contents included in the driving information are different, and the method for identifying which vehicle to be located is in the tunnel is different, which is not limited in the present application.
Exemplarily, two methods of identifying which vehicle to be located is in the tunnel are given below:
the method comprises the steps that firstly, if the driving information comprises relative position information of a vehicle to be positioned and surrounding vehicles; the identification of which vehicle to be located is in the tunnel may be: the vehicle to be positioned determines the relative position information of each vehicle and other vehicles included in the vehicle distribution position information based on the vehicle distribution position information; and the vehicle to be positioned determines the corresponding relation between the vehicle to be positioned and the vehicle in the vehicle distribution position information based on the relative position information of the vehicle to be positioned and the surrounding vehicles in the driving information and the relative position information of each vehicle and other vehicles included in the vehicle distribution position information.
If the vehicle distribution position information comprises time information of the acquisition moment; the driving information comprises actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned at the last positioning, time information of the last positioning, the speed of the current vehicle and a lane where the current vehicle is located; the identification of which vehicle to be located is in the tunnel may be: determining estimated position information of the unmanned driving vehicle at the vehicle distribution position information acquisition moment based on the driving information by the vehicle to be positioned; the correspondence relationship between the vehicle and the vehicle in the vehicle distribution position information is determined based on the estimated position information and the actual position information of each vehicle included in the vehicle distribution position information.
Optionally, the first method and the second method may be performed simultaneously to identify which vehicle in the tunnel the vehicle to be located is.
In the second method, the positioning method of the last positioning is not limited in this application. For example, the positioning may be performed by using the method provided in the present application, and may also be performed by using GPS.
According to the technical scheme, the vehicle to be positioned determines the actual position information of the vehicle based on the vehicle distribution position information acquired by the radar system, and the GPS is not needed in the positioning process, so that the problems that the positioning function of the existing vehicle running in the tunnel cannot be realized by unmanned driving due to the fact that the GPS signal is very weak, and even the realization of the automatic driving function is influenced are solved, and the effect of positioning the vehicle running in the tunnel is achieved.
For the situation of GPS-less positioning, some prior arts indicate that the lane line can be detected by a visual detection device integrated in the vehicle, and the unmanned vehicle is controlled to travel along the center of the lane line, so as to realize unmanned driving. However, this method is not suitable for roads with fuzzy lane lines, and the light in the tunnel is dark, the accuracy of the identified lane line is poor, and traffic accidents are easily caused. Still other prior art points out that it is possible to add markers, such as signboards/tunnel bumps, in tunnels, and to use the lidar or vision detection devices integrated on the unmanned vehicles for positioning based on the markers, which is a major improvement of tunnels, a complex procedure and high cost. The positioning method provided by the embodiment of the invention can ensure that the vehicle can be accurately positioned in the tunnel and the safe driving of the vehicle is ensured. On the other hand, the tunnel is changed slightly, the process is simple, the cost is low, and the method is suitable for popularization. In addition, the positioning mode that this application provided still is fit for locating the vehicle of traveling in the bridge opening.
On the basis of the technical scheme, optionally, the cloud server and the radar system arranged in the tunnel are connected in a wired connection mode. Therefore, the data transmission between the cloud server and the radar system is not easily interfered, and the data has higher transmission rate and accuracy.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart of another method for locating an unmanned vehicle in a tunnel according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 3 is a specific example of fig. 1. Referring to fig. 3, the positioning method includes:
s210, the radar system collects vehicle distribution position information at a set time interval delta t, and the vehicle distribution position information comprises time information of collection time.
The specific value of the time interval Δ t is not limited in this application. Which can be set according to the needs of the user. In addition, the specific value of the set time interval Δ t may be the same or different under different conditions. For example, the value of Δ t when there is a vehicle in the tunnel is smaller than the value of Δ t when there is no vehicle in the tunnel.
For example, Δ t is 0.2s, that is, the radar system collects vehicle distribution position information every 0.2 s.
Optionally, the vehicle distribution location information includes actual location information of all vehicles within the tunnel.
S220, the vehicle to be positioned sends a positioning request to a cloud server, and meanwhile the vehicle to be positioned acquires driving information; the positioning request includes time information of the request time t 1; the travel information includes relative position information of the vehicle to be positioned and surrounding vehicles.
Since the vehicle to be positioned sends the positioning request to the cloud server and the vehicle to be positioned acquires the driving information at the same time, the time for acquiring the driving information is the same as time t 1.
S230, responding to the positioning request, the cloud server sends vehicle distribution position information of which the acquisition time t2 meets t 1-delta t/2 < t2 and is not more than t1+ delta t/2 to the vehicle to be positioned.
For example, if Δ t is 0.2s, the radar system collects the vehicle distribution position information once at 0s, 0.2s, 0.4s, and 0.6s … …, respectively.
And if the vehicle to be positioned is located at 0.31s, sending a positioning request to the cloud server, namely t1 is 0.31 s. Based on t 1-delta t/2 < t2 not less than t1+ delta t/2, 0.21s < t2 not more than 0.41s can be obtained, and t2 represents the time when the radar system collects the vehicle distribution position information, and the value range of t2 is one of 0s, 0.2s, 0.4s and 0.6s … …. Therefore t2 is 0.4 s. And the cloud server sends the vehicle distribution position information with the collection time of 0.4s to the vehicle to be positioned.
S240, the vehicles to be positioned determine the relative position information of each vehicle and other vehicles included in the vehicle distribution position information based on the vehicle distribution position information.
For example, if the vehicle distribution position information only includes the actual position information of all vehicles in the tunnel at time t 2. Assuming that a represents latitude coordinates and bn represents longitude coordinates, the actual location information of a vehicle may be represented as (an, bn). In fig. 2, there are three vehicles in the tunnel, and the vehicle distribution position information includes: the actual position information of the vehicle No. 1 is (a1, b1), the actual position information of the vehicle No. 2 is (a2, b2), and the actual position information of the vehicle No. 3 is (a3, b 3). Since the actual position information of each vehicle is clear, the relative position information of any two vehicles can be obtained based on the actual position information of each vehicle.
And S250, determining the corresponding relation between the vehicle to be positioned and the vehicle in the vehicle distribution position information based on the relative position information of the vehicle to be positioned and the surrounding vehicles in the running information and the relative position information of each vehicle and other vehicles included in the vehicle distribution position information.
For example, with continued reference to fig. 2, assuming that each vehicle in the figure is traveling in the arrow direction, the relative position information of each vehicle and other vehicles included in the vehicle distribution position information obtained based on S240 is:
firstly, taking the No. 1 vehicle as a reference, the No. 2 vehicle is positioned at the position 2m on the left side of the No. 1 vehicle, and the No. 3 vehicle is positioned at the position 10m behind the No. 1 vehicle;
secondly, taking the No. 2 vehicle as a reference, the No. 1 vehicle is positioned at the position 2m on the right side of the No. 2 vehicle, and the No. 3 vehicle is positioned at the position 10.8m behind the No. 1 vehicle;
thirdly, taking the No. 3 vehicle as a reference, the No. 1 vehicle is positioned 10m in front of the No. 3 vehicle, and the No. 2 vehicle is positioned 10.8m in front of the No. 1 vehicle;
assuming that the relative position information of the vehicle to be positioned and the surrounding vehicles in the traveling information includes: the distance between the vehicle to be positioned and the vehicle behind the vehicle to be positioned is 9.5m, and the distance between the vehicle to be positioned and the vehicle on the left side of the vehicle to be positioned is 1.9 m. By comparing the relative position information of the vehicle to be positioned and the surrounding vehicles with the relative position information of each vehicle and other vehicles obtained based on the actual position information of each vehicle in the vehicle distribution position information, it can be determined that the relative position information of the vehicle No. 1 and other vehicles and the relative position information of the vehicle to be positioned and the surrounding vehicles are consistent within the allowable range of error. Namely, the vehicle to be positioned has a corresponding relation with the vehicle No. 1 in the vehicle distribution position information.
And S260, determining the actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned based on the corresponding relation.
The actual position information (a1, b1) of the vehicle No. 1 can be used as the actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned because the vehicle to be positioned and the vehicle No. 1 in the vehicle distribution position information have the corresponding relation.
Optionally, when the automatic driving is subsequently executed, the actual position information (a1, b1) of the vehicle is to be positioned at time t2, and is used as a basis for guiding route planning and avoiding obstacles during driving.
In the technical scheme, t 1-delta t/2 is more than t2 and less than or equal to t1 plus delta t/2, so that the running information acquisition time t1 and the vehicle distribution position information acquisition time t2 are as close as possible in time, the corresponding relation between the determined vehicle to be positioned and the vehicle in the vehicle distribution position information is accurate, the positioning accuracy is high, and safe driving of the unmanned vehicle is facilitated based on the positioning result.
Fig. 4 is a flowchart of another method for locating an unmanned vehicle in a tunnel according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 4 is a specific example of fig. 1. Referring to fig. 4, the positioning method includes:
s310, the radar system collects vehicle distribution position information at a set time interval delta t, and the vehicle distribution position information comprises time information of collection time.
S320, the vehicle to be positioned sends a positioning request to the cloud server, and meanwhile the vehicle to be positioned acquires the driving information. The positioning request includes time information of the request time t 1; the driving information includes actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned at the last positioning, time information of the last positioning time t3, the current vehicle speed v, and the lane where the current vehicle is located.
Since the vehicle to be positioned sends the positioning request to the cloud server and the vehicle to be positioned acquires the driving information at the same time, the time for acquiring the driving information is the same as time t 1.
S330, responding to the positioning request, the cloud server sends vehicle distribution position information of which the acquisition time t2 meets t 1-delta t/2 < t2 and is not more than t1+ delta t/2 to the vehicle to be positioned.
And S340, determining the estimated position information of the unmanned vehicle at the time t2 based on the running information of the vehicle to be positioned.
For example, the moving distance S of the unmanned vehicle in the period between the time t3 and the time t2 may be found from S ═ t2-t3| · v. Based on the actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned at the last time of positioning (i.e., the actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned at time t 3), the moving distance S of the unmanned vehicle in the time period between time t3 and time t2, and the lane where the current vehicle is located, the estimated position information of the unmanned vehicle at time t2 can be determined.
And S350, determining the corresponding relation between the vehicle and the vehicle in the vehicle distribution position information based on the estimated position information and the vehicle distribution position information.
For example, if the estimated position information of an unmanned vehicle at time t2 is (north latitude N39 ° 22 '36.38 ", east longitude E114 ° 50' 19.13"). The vehicle distribution position information includes: the actual position information of the No. 1 vehicle is (north latitude N39 degrees 22 '35.93' east longitude E114 degrees 50 '18.20') and the actual position information of the No. 2 vehicle is (north latitude N39 degrees 22 '36.37', east longitude E114 degrees 50 '19.11'). Obviously, within the allowable error range, the estimated location information of the unmanned vehicle is consistent with the actual location information of the vehicle number 2 in the distributed location information of the vehicles. That is, the estimated positional information of the unmanned vehicle and the vehicle No. 2 in the vehicle distribution positional information have a correspondence relationship.
And S360, determining the actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned based on the corresponding relation.
For example, if the estimated position information of the unmanned vehicle corresponds to the vehicle number 2 in the vehicle distribution position information, the actual position information of the vehicle number 2 is used as the actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned.
Optionally, when automatic driving is subsequently performed, the actual position information of the vehicle to be positioned at time t2 is used as a basis for guiding route planning and avoiding obstacles during driving.
It should be noted that, since the vehicle to be positioned sends the positioning request to the cloud server and the vehicle to be positioned acquires the driving information at the same time, the time for acquiring the driving information is also time t 1. That is, the current vehicle speed v and the collection time of the lane where the current vehicle is located in the travel information are t 1.
The vehicle to be positioned is usually subjected to a shifting movement during the actual travel. In practice, however, the time interval between two adjacent fixes is extremely short. In the error allowable range, for the sake of simple calculation, the above technical solution calculates the moving distance S of the unmanned vehicle based on S ═ t2-t3| · v by using the vehicle speed at time t1, which is advantageous for improving the calculation efficiency and thus the positioning efficiency.
In the technical scheme, t 1-delta t/2 is more than t2 and less than or equal to t1 plus delta t/2, so that the running information acquisition time t1 and the vehicle distribution position information acquisition time t2 are as close as possible in time, an error caused by calculating the moving distance S of the unmanned vehicle by using the vehicle speed at the time t1 is reduced, the corresponding relation between the determined vehicle to be positioned and the vehicle in the vehicle distribution position information is accurate, the positioning is ensured to have higher precision, and the safe driving of the unmanned vehicle is facilitated based on the positioning result.
The embodiment of the invention also provides a positioning system of the unmanned vehicle in the tunnel. Fig. 5 is a block diagram of a positioning system for an unmanned vehicle in a tunnel according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 5, the positioning system of the unmanned vehicle in the tunnel includes a vehicle 510 to be positioned, a cloud server 520, and a radar system 530 disposed in the tunnel; the vehicle to be positioned 510 and the radar system 530 are both connected with the cloud server 520;
