Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a sensor detection method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The sensor detection method described in this embodiment is applied to a vehicle-mounted control terminal, and may include the following steps:
101. and acquiring the registration information of the sensor.
Wherein the sensor may include, but is not limited to, at least one of: cameras, laser radars, inertial navigation systems, global positioning systems.
The registration information includes one or more of the type of the sensor, an address list, a data generation frequency range, a maximum frame interval duration, a corresponding relation between a fault code and a fault description, a data value range and a processing mechanism when the sensor is abnormal.
Specifically, the registration information of each sensor mounted on the vehicle may be submitted to a vehicle-mounted control terminal of the automatic driving system, and the vehicle-mounted control terminal acquires the registration information of each sensor.
102. And receiving the data sent by the sensor.
Specifically, after the vehicle is started, each sensor starts to be powered on to work, the data of the sensor per se is sent to the vehicle-mounted control terminal, and the vehicle-mounted control terminal receives the data of each sensor.
103. And determining the current state of the sensor according to the registration information and the data sent by the sensor.
Specifically, the vehicle-mounted control terminal may use the registration information as reference data, compare the data of the sensor with the registration information after receiving the data of the sensor, and determine the current state of the sensor according to a comparison result.
104. And sending out a corresponding control instruction for controlling the vehicle according to the current state of the sensor.
Specifically, the vehicle-mounted control terminal may acquire a target processing mechanism corresponding to the sensor having the abnormality when the current state of the sensor indicates that the sensor has the abnormality, and generate a corresponding control instruction to control the vehicle. Wherein, the corresponding control instruction comprises one or more of the following control instructions: throttle control, steering control and light control.
In the embodiment of the invention, the vehicle-mounted control terminal acquires the registration information of the sensor, receives the data sent by the sensor, determines the current state of the sensor according to the registration information and the data sent by the sensor, and sends out the corresponding control instruction for controlling the vehicle according to the current state of the sensor, so that the processing capacity of the automatic driving system for the abnormal state of the sensor can be improved by monitoring the state of the sensor in real time, the probability of traffic accidents is reduced, and the automatic driving system is more reliable and robust.
In one implementation, when the current state of the sensor is abnormal, at least one of the following may be specifically included: status exception, link exception. The state abnormality may specifically include at least one of the following: the sensor is not started, the sensor detects a fault by self, the sensor data is abnormal, and the link abnormality specifically includes at least one of the following: the sensor link is disconnected and the sensor data frequency is abnormal.
Therefore, the problem of the sensor can be accurately positioned through the current state of the sensor, so that a driver can execute corresponding protection actions according to specific conditions, and maintenance personnel can conveniently and rapidly position the fault point of the automatic driving system, so that the overall reliability and robustness of the automatic driving system are improved.
In one implementation, the data sent by the sensor may include an address of a sensor that is successfully started, the registration information may include an address list of at least one sensor, and after the autopilot system is powered on and works and a self address sent by the sensor is successfully received, the vehicle-mounted control terminal may compare the address list in the registration information with the received address of the sensor, and when the received address is found to be less than the registered address, determine the sensor that is failed to be started, and at this time, determine that the current state of the sensor that is failed to be started belongs to the sensor that is in the abnormal state.
In one implementation manner, for a first sensor of a sensor that is started successfully, the vehicle-mounted control terminal may obtain a characteristic parameter when the first sensor sends data, where the characteristic parameter includes a target time of last frame data sent by the first sensor, the first sensor is any one of the sensors that are started successfully, the registration information may include a maximum frame interval duration, and when a duration of the target time from a current time reaches the maximum frame interval duration, it is determined that a link of the first sensor is abnormal, which is specifically described as that the sensor is disconnected in a link abnormality.
For example, assuming that the target time of the last frame data sent by the first sensor is 14 hours, 25 minutes and 30 seconds, assuming that the maximum frame interval duration is 1 second, if the next frame data is not received at 14 hours, 25 minutes and 31 seconds, the sensor link is determined to be disconnected.
In one implementation manner, for a first sensor of sensors after successful start, an on-board control terminal acquires a characteristic parameter when the first sensor transmits data, where the characteristic parameter includes a frequency at which the first sensor transmits data, the first sensor is any one of the sensors that have succeeded in start, registration information includes a data generation frequency range, and if the frequency at which the first sensor transmits data is not within the data generation frequency range, it is determined that a link abnormality of the first sensor is specifically described that the sensor abnormality is a sensor data frequency abnormality in the link abnormality.
For example, assuming that the data generation frequency range of the registration information is 10 to 20Hz, if the frequency of data transmission by the first sensor is 15 times per second, the sensor is considered to be normal, and if the frequency of data transmission by the first sensor is 9 times or 25 times per second, the sensor is considered to be abnormal, that is, the sensor data frequency is abnormal.
In one implementation manner, the registration information includes a data value range, and for a second sensor of the sensors that are successfully started and have no link abnormality, the vehicle-mounted control terminal obtains the number or the proportion of data that are not in the data value range in the received data sent by the second sensor, where the second sensor is any one of the sensors that are successfully started and have no link abnormality. If the number or the ratio reaches a preset value, determining the second sensor as a sensor with abnormality, specifically describing that the sensor abnormality is sensor data abnormality in state abnormality.
For example, assuming that the number of data which is not within the data value range in the received data sent by the second sensor is 6 or the occupancy is 5.5%, the vehicle-mounted control terminal is mainly responsible for recording the data, and assuming that the preset number is 5 and the preset occupancy is 5%, it can be obviously seen that 6 is greater than 5 and 5.5% is also greater than 5%, so that it can be determined that the second sensor has an abnormal state, specifically, abnormal sensor data.
In one implementation manner, the registration information includes a corresponding relationship between a fault code and a fault description, the vehicle-mounted control terminal obtains the fault code sent by the first sensor which is started successfully, determines a target fault description corresponding to the fault code sent by the first sensor by using the corresponding relationship between the fault code and the fault description, and determines the first sensor as a sensor with an abnormality if the target fault description indicates that the first sensor has a fault, specifically, the sensor abnormality is a sensor number in a state abnormality which is self-detected to be a fault.
Therefore, the current state of the sensor is determined through the registration information and the data sent by the sensor, and the problem of the sensor can be conveniently and better detected by the automatic driving system, so that alarm information can be provided for a driver in time, an upper-layer algorithm is assisted to execute corresponding protection actions aiming at abnormal conditions, and the overall reliability and robustness of the automatic driving system are improved.
In one implementation mode, the registration information includes a processing mechanism when the sensor is abnormal, the vehicle-mounted control terminal outputs a warning message for the sensor with the abnormality and acquires the abnormal type and/or the sensor type of the sensor with the abnormality, determines a target processing mechanism corresponding to the abnormal type and/or the sensor type from the processing mechanism when the sensor is abnormal, and controls the vehicle according to the target processing mechanism. The processing mechanism when the sensor is abnormal comprises one or more of starting a standby sensor, refusing to drive after starting, adjusting an automatic driving level, decelerating, stopping and starting a danger alarm flash lamp.
Therefore, the vehicle can be controlled more conveniently and accurately by combining the current state of the sensor with a specific control instruction, so that the problem of the automatic driving system can be solved more timely, more efficient control is realized, and the overall reliability and robustness of the automatic driving system are improved.
Please refer to fig. 2a, which is a schematic structural diagram of an autopilot system framework according to an embodiment of the present invention. The autopilot system framework comprises an execution unit 201, a calculation unit 202, a sensor unit 203, wherein:
the execution unit 201 may specifically include a throttle control, a steering control, a light control, and the like.
Specifically, the execution unit 201 is configured to issue a corresponding control instruction for controlling the vehicle according to the current state of the sensor, such as activating a standby sensor, refusing to start driving, adjusting an automatic driving level, decelerating, stopping, and turning on a hazard warning flash.
The computing unit 202 comprises a system public middleware, a human-computer interaction interface, a planning algorithm layer, a perception algorithm layer and a hardware abstraction layer. Wherein, the planning algorithm layer is a control unit acting on the execution unit 201, and the hardware abstraction layer is a sensor acting on the sensor unit 203; the man-machine interaction interface is used for alarming, and the alarming form can be a voice form or an interface pop-up display form.

firstly, the vehicle-mounted control terminal judges whether the sensor is started or not, if the sensor is started successfully, the vehicle-mounted control terminal judges whether a link is abnormal or not, and if the sensor is not started successfully, the vehicle-mounted control terminal directly starts the sensor and does not monitor.
Further, the vehicle-mounted control terminal judges the link of the sensor, wherein whether the link of the sensor is normal or not is judged according to the maximum frame interval duration of the sensor data and the normal frequency range of the sensor data.
The automatic driving system acquires characteristic parameters when the first sensor transmits data aiming at the first sensor in the sensors after the starting is successful, wherein the characteristic parameters comprise target time of last frame data transmitted by the first sensor, the registration information is maximum frame interval time, and when the time length of the target time and the current time reaches the maximum frame interval time, the sensor is monitored for link disconnection.
Or, the characteristic parameter may also include a frequency of data transmission by the first sensor, the registration information includes a data generation frequency range, and if the frequency of data transmission by the first sensor is not within the data generation frequency range, the sensor is monitored for frequency abnormality, where both monitoring schemes are cases of sensor link disconnection.
