Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail and completely with reference to the following specific embodiments of the present application and the accompanying drawings. It should be apparent that the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, 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 application.
The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to fig. 1, a flow chart of a vehicle positioning method according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is schematically shown, and the method can be applied to a positioning module installed in a vehicle. As shown in fig. 1, the method comprises the steps of:
s102, acquiring running state information and surrounding road condition information of the vehicle during running, historical position information of the vehicle before entering a target area and an electronic map of the target area.
The driving state information of the vehicle is information for representing the driving state of the vehicle, and may specifically include, but is not limited to, a steering angle of a steering wheel, a steering wheel torque, a brake pedal position, a master cylinder pressure, an accelerator pedal position, a driving speed, a yaw rate, a lateral acceleration, a longitudinal acceleration, and the like. Specifically, the running state information of the vehicle may be acquired by a running information acquisition unit provided on the vehicle, for example, the running information acquisition unit may include, but is not limited to, a position sensor, a speed sensor, an acceleration sensor, a pressure sensor, and the like, a brake pedal position and an accelerator pedal position may be acquired by the position sensor, a running speed of the vehicle may be acquired by the speed sensor, a lateral acceleration and a longitudinal acceleration of the vehicle may be acquired by the acceleration sensor, and a brake active pressure may be acquired by the pressure sensor, and the like.
The surrounding road condition information of the vehicle refers to information for representing road condition characteristics around the vehicle, and may specifically include, but is not limited to, characteristic information of obstacles around the vehicle (such as guardrails, pillars, speed bumps, walls, indicator lights, signs, isolation strips, and the like), a distance between the vehicle and the obstacle, lane lines on both sides of a lane where the vehicle is located, a distance between the vehicle and the lane lines, and the like. Specifically, the surrounding road condition information of the vehicle can be acquired by a road condition information acquisition unit arranged on the vehicle. For example, the road condition information acquisition unit may include an image acquisition device, a radar detector, and the like, where the image acquisition device may acquire an environment image around the vehicle, and acquire feature information of obstacles around the vehicle, lane lines on both sides of a lane where the vehicle is located, distances between the vehicle and the lane lines, and the like by processing and identifying the environment image; the radar detector may detect whether an obstacle exists around the vehicle and acquire a distance between the vehicle and the obstacle.
The target area may include, for example, but is not limited to, an enclosed area such as a underground parking lot, an indoor parking lot, and the like. The historical location information of the vehicle prior to entering the target area may include a location of the vehicle at one or more historical times prior to entering the target area, a location of the vehicle while traveling to the target area, and the like.
The position of the vehicle before entering the target area may be obtained in any suitable manner. In an alternative embodiment, because the vehicle enters the target area before the vehicle enters the target area, the conventional positioning device preferably receives and transmits signals, and for this reason, before the vehicle enters the target area, the vehicle can be positioned by a GPS arranged on the vehicle, so as to obtain GPS positioning information of the vehicle before entering the target area, and based on the GPS positioning information, historical position information of the vehicle before entering the target area is determined.
In some other alternative embodiments, the position of the vehicle when driving to the target area may be determined by the entrance position of the target area, for example, the entrance position of the target area may be determined based on an electronic map, and the entrance position of the target area may be further determined as the position of the vehicle when driving to the target area. It can be understood that, compared with the method of positioning by using a GPS, the method of positioning by using a GPS is simpler to implement, and can prevent the entrance position of the target area from being interfered by buildings and affecting the signal transmission and reception of the GPS, so that the acquired position information is more accurate.
The electronic map of the target area is used for describing road condition characteristics in the target area, such as characteristics of objects in a lane, a column, an isolation zone, a deceleration strip, a guardrail, a column, a deceleration strip, a wall, a gate, a sign, an indicator light and the like in the target area. Specifically, the electronic map of the target area may be stored in advance in a storage unit of the vehicle, whereby the positioning unit of the vehicle can read the electronic map of the target area from the storage unit. Alternatively, the positioning unit may acquire the electronic map of the target area from a server of the target area through the vehicle-mounted network, for example, the positioning unit may send an acquisition request carrying identification information of the target area to the server of the target area before the vehicle enters the target area, and receive the electronic map of the target area fed back by the server in response to the acquisition request. Of course, it should be understood that, after the positioning unit acquires the electronic map from the server, the positioning unit may also send the electronic map to the storage unit for storage, so that the electronic map may be read and used directly from the storage unit in the following.
And S104, predicting the position information of the vehicle at the target time after the vehicle enters the target area based on the historical position information and the running state information corresponding to the historical position information.
The travel state information corresponding to the historical position information is travel state information of the vehicle at a time corresponding to the historical position information.
The target time is a time after the current time. For example, the target time may be t seconds after the current time, or a plurality of times separated by Δ t after the current time. In practical application, the target time can be set according to actual needs.
In the embodiment of the present application, after the historical position of the vehicle before entering the target area and the driving state information corresponding to the historical position are acquired, the position information of the vehicle at the target time after entering the target area can be predicted by using any existing appropriate algorithm.
For example, the time t before the vehicle enters the target area0Acceleration of a0The vehicle speed is v0Further, the target time t of the vehicle after entering the target area can be calculated based on the kinematics theory1The position of (a).
In practical application, in an optional scheme, the position information of the vehicle at the target time after entering the target area is predicted based on the position information and the running state information of the vehicle at any time before entering the target area. Of course, to further simplify the positioning process and improve the positioning accuracy, in a more preferred embodiment, the position information of the vehicle at the target time after entering the target area may be predicted based on the position of the vehicle when traveling to the target area (i.e., the entrance position of the target area) and the traveling state information of the vehicle at the position.
And S106, predicting the road condition information around the target corresponding to the target moment based on the position information of the target moment and the electronic map of the target area.
The electronic map of the target area records road condition information corresponding to each position in the target area, the electronic map is inquired based on the position information at the target moment, the road condition information corresponding to the position information at the target moment can be obtained, and then the surrounding road condition information can be used as the surrounding road condition information of the target corresponding to the target moment.
And S108, after the vehicle enters the target area, determining the position information of the vehicle at the current moment based on the difference between the surrounding road condition information acquired at the current moment and the target surrounding road condition information corresponding to the target moment.
In a time period before the target time, the target surrounding road condition information corresponding to the target time can be used as a reference, the surrounding road condition information of the vehicle at the current time and the target surrounding road condition corresponding to the target time are compared in a consistent manner, and if the surrounding road condition information of the vehicle at the current time and the target surrounding road condition information are not consistent, the position information of the vehicle at the current time can be determined according to the difference between the surrounding road condition information and the target surrounding road condition information and the position information of the vehicle at.
For example, the vehicle may indicate that a position a1 m ahead of the vehicle is a road junction, a right turn indicator 1 is provided at the road junction, a pillar 1 is provided at the right side of the road junction, and the distance between the vehicle and the pillar at the right side is b1 m at the current time t1, the target surrounding road condition information corresponding to the target time t2 includes the position a2 m ahead of the vehicle is the road junction, the right turn indicator 1 is provided at the road junction, the pillar 1 is provided at the right side of the road junction, and the distance between the vehicle and the pillar at the left side is b2 m at the target time t2, and the position of the vehicle at the current time t1 may be further determined according to the above-mentioned distances b1, b.
It should be noted that, in the above embodiment, the vehicle location module may repeatedly perform the step of predicting the location information of the vehicle at the target time to determine the location information of the vehicle at the current time based on the difference between the acquired surrounding road condition information at the current time and the target surrounding road condition information corresponding to the target time, until the vehicle exits the target area or the vehicle stops. Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the method includes the following steps:
s202, acquiring running state information and surrounding road condition information of the vehicle during running, historical position information of the vehicle before entering a target area and an electronic map of the target area.
And S204, determining the position information of the vehicle at the target time after the current time based on the position information of the current time and the acquired running road condition information from the time before the vehicle enters the target area.
And S206, predicting the road condition information around the target corresponding to the target moment based on the position information of the target moment and the electronic map of the target area.
And S208, determining the position information of the vehicle at the current moment based on the surrounding road condition information acquired at the current moment and the target surrounding road condition information corresponding to the target moment.
And S210, judging whether the vehicle is driven out of the target area or in a stop state.
If the judgment result is yes, stopping positioning the vehicle; if the judgment result is negative, the above steps S204 to S210 are repeatedly executed.
By adopting the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application, the position information of the vehicle at the target moment after the vehicle enters the target area is predicted based on the historical position information of the vehicle before the vehicle enters the target area and the driving state information corresponding to the historical position information, the road condition information around the target corresponding to the target moment is predicted based on the position information of the target moment and the electronic map of the target area, and the position information of the vehicle at the current moment is determined based on the difference between the road condition information around the vehicle at the current moment and the road condition information around the target corresponding to the target moment after the vehicle enters the target area. Therefore, according to the technical scheme, the target surrounding road condition information corresponding to the target time after the current time is used as the reference, and the surrounding road condition information of the vehicle at the current time is compared with the reference, so that the position information of the vehicle at the current time can be accurately positioned, the method and the device can be widely applied to closed areas such as underground parking lots or indoor parking lots and outdoor open areas, and are simple to implement and low in cost without adding too many devices.
Referring to fig. 3, a schematic flow chart of a vehicle positioning method according to another exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown, and the present embodiment is further improved based on the embodiment shown in fig. 1, and the specific improvement is as follows: after the position information of the vehicle at the current moment is determined, the vehicle is positioned according to a preset positioning period from the target moment. As shown in fig. 3, the vehicle positioning method provided by the present embodiment includes the following steps:
s302, acquiring running state information and surrounding road condition information of the vehicle during running, historical position information of the vehicle before entering a target area and an electronic map of the target area.
And S304, predicting the position information of the vehicle at the target time after the vehicle enters the target area based on the historical position information and the running state information corresponding to the historical position information.
And S306, predicting the road condition information around the target corresponding to the target moment based on the position information of the target moment and the electronic map of the target area.
S308, after the vehicle enters the target area, the position information of the vehicle at the current moment is determined based on the difference between the surrounding road condition information of the vehicle at the current moment and the surrounding road condition information of the target corresponding to the target moment.
For details of the implementation of steps S302 to S308, refer to the technical details of steps S102 to S108 in the embodiment shown in fig. 1, which are not repeated herein.
And S310, predicting the position information of the vehicle at a second moment according to a preset positioning period and based on the position information and the running state information of the vehicle at a first moment, wherein the first moment is the starting moment of the current positioning period, and the second moment is the ending moment of the current positioning period.
Specifically, the target time may be a start time of the first positioning period, and the position information of the vehicle at the end time of the first positioning period may be predicted based on the position information of the vehicle at the target time and the traveling state information. Then, the position information of the vehicle at the end time of the first positioning cycle is used as the position information of the vehicle at the start time of the second positioning cycle, and the position information of the vehicle at the end time of the second positioning cycle is determined based on the position information of the vehicle at the start time of the second positioning cycle and the traveling state information, and so on, thereby predicting the position information of the vehicle at the end time of each positioning cycle.
In the actual running process, an error may exist between the actual position information of the vehicle at the first moment and the predicted position information of the vehicle at the first moment, so that the predicted position information of the vehicle at the second moment is inaccurate, and the final positioning accuracy is influenced.
In view of this, at the first time, consistency comparison is further performed on the surrounding road condition information acquired at the first time and the target surrounding road condition information corresponding to the first time, and if the surrounding road condition information acquired at the first time is consistent with the target surrounding road condition information corresponding to the first time, it can be determined that the predicted position information at the first time is accurate, and further, the position information of the vehicle at the second time can be predicted based on the predicted position information at the first time and the driving state information of the vehicle at the first time. And if the position information of the vehicle at the first moment is inconsistent with the position information of the vehicle at the first moment, the position information of the vehicle at the first moment is corrected based on the surrounding road condition information and the electronic map acquired at the first moment.
For example, taking the first positioning period as an example, at the target time, if the surrounding road condition information acquired at the target time is consistent with the target surrounding road condition information corresponding to the target time, it indicates that the actual position of the vehicle at the target time is not deviated from the position of the vehicle at the target time predicted before, and further, the position information of the vehicle at the end time of the current positioning period may be predicted based on the position information of the target time predicted before and the driving state information acquired at the target time. If the surrounding road condition information acquired at the target moment is not consistent with the target surrounding road condition information corresponding to the target moment, it is indicated that the actual position of the vehicle at the target moment is different from the position of the target moment predicted in the past, so that the actual position information of the vehicle at the target moment can be determined based on the surrounding road condition information acquired at the target moment and the electronic map of the target area, and the actual position information is used as the position information of the target moment.
In the embodiment of the present application, the position information of the vehicle at the first time may be corrected in any appropriate manner. In an alternative embodiment, the surrounding road condition information may include characteristic information of a reference object and a first distance and a second distance corresponding to the vehicle, where the first distance is a distance between the vehicle and a lane line on both sides of the lane where the vehicle is located, the second distance is a distance between the vehicle and the reference object, and the reference object may include, but is not limited to, a pillar, a sign, an indicator light, a wall, and other landmark objects. Accordingly, the position information of the reference object may be determined based on the feature information of the reference object and the electronic map, the first travel track corresponding to the vehicle may be determined based on the first distance corresponding to the vehicle at the first time and the position information of the reference object, and the second travel track corresponding to the vehicle may be determined based on the second distance corresponding to the vehicle at the first time and the position information of the reference object; then, position information of an intersection of the first travel track and the second travel track is acquired, and the position information at the first time is corrected based on the position information of the intersection. The first travel track is a track where the vehicle travels while keeping the first distance, and the second travel track is a circle having a reference object as a center and a second distance as a radius.
For example, as shown in fig. 4, assuming that the current time is the first time, the surrounding road condition information acquired at the first time indicates that the reference object B is disposed in the front left of the vehicle and the reference object C is disposed in the front right of the vehicle, and the electronic map of the target area is queried based on the feature information of the reference object B and the feature information of the reference object C, it is possible to determine that the position of the reference object B is (X1, Y1) and the position of the reference object C is (X2, Y2). The surrounding road condition information acquired at the first time point further indicates that the distance between the vehicle and the left lane line of the lane where the vehicle is located is d1 (i.e., the first distance), the distance between the vehicle and the right lane line is d2 (i.e., the first distance), the distance between the vehicle and the reference object B (X1, Y1) in the left front of the lane where the vehicle is located is d3 (i.e., the second distance), and the distance between the vehicle and the reference object C (X2, Y2) in the right front of the lane where the vehicle is located is d4 (i.e., the second distance).
In conjunction with the first distances d1 and d2, a first travel path of the vehicle (i.e., a dashed line where Y is Y0 in fig. 2) can be determined, and in conjunction with the second distances d3 and d4, a second travel path of the vehicle can be determined to include a circle Φ 1 having a radius of d3 and a circle Φ 2 having a radius of d3 and having a center of B and a center of C. Further, the intersection a (X0, Y0) of the first travel track and the second travel track may be determined as the actual position of the vehicle at the first time, and further, the intersection a (X0, Y0) may be used as the position of the first time, and the intersection a (X0, Y0) and the travel state information of the vehicle at the first time may be combined to determine the position P (X, Y) of the vehicle at the second time.
It can be understood that, with the above embodiment, the position information of the reference object can be determined by comparing the feature information of the reference object with the electronic map of the target area, the first travel track of the vehicle is determined by further referring to the position information of the reference object according to the first distance between the vehicle and the lane line on both sides of the vehicle at the first time, the second travel track of the vehicle is determined by referring to the second distance between the vehicle and the reference object at the first time and the position information of the reference object, the actual position of the vehicle at the first time can be accurately located by combining the first travel track and the second travel track, and the position information at the first time is corrected according to the actual position, so that the position information of the vehicle at the second time can be accurately predicted, and the accuracy of vehicle location can be improved.
And S312, predicting the road condition information around the target corresponding to the second moment based on the position information of the second moment and the electronic map of the target area.
Specifically, the electronic map of the target area is queried based on the location information at the second moment, so that the traffic information corresponding to the location information at the second moment can be obtained, and the surrounding traffic information can be used as the target surrounding traffic information corresponding to the target moment.
And S314, before the second moment, determining the position information of the vehicle based on the difference between the acquired surrounding road condition information and the target surrounding road condition information corresponding to the second moment.
Specifically, the specific implementation process of step S314 is similar to S108 in the embodiment shown in fig. 1, and specific reference may be made to the technical details of S108 in the embodiment shown in fig. 1, which is not repeated herein.
In this embodiment, the position information of the vehicle at the ending time of the current positioning period can be predicted in time according to the preset positioning period, and then the vehicle is positioned in real time in the current positioning period based on the target surrounding road condition information corresponding to the position information at the ending time of the current positioning period and the surrounding road condition information obtained in real time, so that the continuity and accuracy of vehicle positioning can be ensured.
Further, in each of the above embodiments, after determining the location information of the vehicle, the location information of the vehicle may be further sent to a pre-configured destination, so that the destination performs a corresponding operation on the vehicle based on the location information of the vehicle, where the destination may include, but is not limited to, at least one of a control System of the vehicle, a server of the target area, and a user terminal, and the control System may include, but is not limited to, an Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS), an autonomous Parking Assistant (AVP) System, and the like.
For example, after determining the position information of the vehicle, the positioning module of the vehicle may send the position information of the vehicle to an ADAS system of the vehicle, so that the ADAS system performs driving assistance on the vehicle based on the position information of the vehicle. For another example, after the positioning module of the vehicle determines the position information of the vehicle, the positioning module of the vehicle may further send the position information of the vehicle to a server in the target area, so that a supervisor in the target area supervises the vehicle. For another example, after the location module of the vehicle determines the location information of the vehicle, the location information of the vehicle may also be sent to the user terminal of the relevant person, so that the relevant person monitors the location of the vehicle through the user terminal, and so on.
