The following describes a method for calibrating an installation angle of a vehicle-mounted radar according to an embodiment of the present application, and fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of the method for calibrating an installation angle of a vehicle-mounted radar according to an embodiment of the present application. It is noted that the present specification provides method operational steps as described in the examples or flowcharts, but may include more or fewer operational steps based on conventional or non-inventive labor. The order of steps recited in the embodiments is merely one way of performing the order of steps and does not represent a unique order of execution. In actual system or product execution, the methods illustrated in the embodiments or figures may be performed sequentially or in parallel (e.g., in a parallel processor or multi-threaded processing environment). As shown in fig. 1, the method may include:
s101, acquiring the current installation angle of the vehicle-mounted radar on the target vehicle relative to the central axis of the target vehicle and the running state information of the target vehicle.
In a particular embodiment, the type of vehicle-mounted radar may include, but is not limited to, millimeter wave radar and the like; depending on the mounting location of the vehicle radar, the vehicle radar may include, but is not limited to: and the vehicle-mounted forward radar and the vehicle-mounted backward radar can be correspondingly arranged at the middle position of the front bumper of the target vehicle, and the vehicle-mounted backward radar can be arranged at the middle position of the rear bumper of the target vehicle. The current installation angle of the vehicle-mounted radar may be an angle between a normal line of the vehicle-mounted radar and a central axis of the target vehicle, and in practical application, the current installation angle of the vehicle-mounted radar is usually defaulted to 0 °.
Specifically, the driving state information may include, but is not limited to: vehicle speed, acceleration, steering wheel angle, and yaw rate.
And S103, when the running state information meets the preset calibration condition, controlling the vehicle-mounted radar to respectively acquire a plurality of first reference position information groups and a plurality of second reference position information groups on target reference objects on two sides of the road where the target vehicle is located.
In an optional embodiment, the controlling the vehicle-mounted radar to acquire the plurality of first reference position information sets and the plurality of second reference position information sets on the target reference objects on both sides of the road where the target vehicle is located may include:
and acquiring the position information of the target reference points on the target reference objects at two sides respectively in a plurality of preset acquisition time periods based on a vehicle body coordinate system to obtain a plurality of first reference position information groups and a plurality of second reference position information groups, wherein the plurality of first reference position information groups are positioned on the left target reference object, and the plurality of second reference position information groups are positioned on the right target reference object.
Specifically, the vertical axis of the vehicle body coordinate system is the central axis of the target vehicle, the origin is the intersection point of the left front side of the target vehicle and the vertical axis, the vertical axis forward direction points to the running direction of the target vehicle, and the horizontal axis forward direction points to the right side of the target vehicle.
Specifically, the above-mentioned multiple preset collection time periods may be set based on the collection requirement of the parameter position information set in the practical application, the road where the target vehicle is located may be a specific test road section, also may be a highway or an urban road, the target reference objects on two sides of the road may be two side rails of the road, the target reference points may be random target points on two side rails determined based on the detection signals sent by the vehicle-mounted radar, and the detection signals may be millimeter waves. In an alternative embodiment, a first reference position information set and a second reference position information set are acquired respectively in each preset acquisition time period until the number of the first reference position information set and the number of the second reference position information set respectively meet the first preset group number and the second preset group number, and the first preset group number and the second preset group number can be set in combination with the size of a random access memory space of a processing chip of the vehicle-mounted terminal of the target vehicle and the accuracy of self calibration of the mounting angle of the vehicle-mounted radar. In practical application, when the target vehicle runs on the lane on the left side of the road, the second preset group number can be smaller than the first preset group number because the target vehicle is far away from the right side railing and has more obstacles between the target vehicle and the right side railing and has higher acquisition difficulty; accordingly, the first preset group number may be smaller than the second preset group number when the target vehicle travels in the lane on the right side of the road.
In a specific embodiment, the preset calibration condition may be: in a preset calibration time period, the vehicle speed is larger than a preset vehicle speed threshold value, and the running direction is parallel to the directions of the target reference objects on two sides. It may be determined whether the vehicle speed of the target vehicle is greater than a preset vehicle speed threshold value within a preset calibration time based on the vehicle speed and acceleration of the target vehicle, and whether the traveling direction of the target vehicle is parallel to the both-side rail direction based on the steering wheel angle and yaw rate of the target vehicle.

S301, constructing a characterization function of the target straight line according to any two pieces of reference position information in the reference position information group traversed currently.
Specifically, assuming that there are M pieces of reference position information in the current reference position information group Q, q= { (x i,yi) } (i=1, 2, …, M), a characterization function of the target straight line l is constructed based on any two pieces of reference position information (x m,ym) and (x n,yn) in Q: x=ky+b, where the slope k and the constant term b are obtained by substituting the above (x m,ym) and (x n,yn) into x=ky+b and calculating.
S303, judging whether the sampling number of the reference position information, of which the distance between the reference position information group and the target straight line is smaller than a preset distance, is larger than the corresponding target number of the reference position information group.
Specifically, the reference position information in the Q is traversed, the distance Delta g=kyg+b-xg is calculated according to the reference position information (x g,yg) which is traversed currently (g and M, n are different), when |delta g |delta is smaller than or equal to Delta, the target reference point g corresponding to the reference position information (x g,yg) which is traversed currently is considered to be near the straight line l, and the number num of target reference points near the straight line l in the M target reference points corresponding to the Q is determined.
In practical applications, the preset distance Delta may be set in combination with the accuracy of the self calibration of the installation angle, and in an alternative embodiment, the preset distance Delta may be 0.1m. The corresponding target number may be a product of the number M of reference position information in the reference position information group currently traversed and a preset sampling probability P, which may be set in combination with a random sampling consistency algorithm and accuracy of installation angle self-calibration.

Specifically, when the number of samples of the reference position information having a distance from the target straight line smaller than the preset distance in the currently traversed reference position information group is larger than the corresponding target number, i.e., num is equal to or larger than m×p, then the sampling installation angle=arctan (k).
In another alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, after determining whether the number of samples of the reference position information having a distance between the reference position information group currently traversed and the target straight line smaller than the preset distance is greater than the number of targets corresponding to the reference position information group currently traversed, the method may further include:
And S307, when the judgment is no, updating the arbitrary two pieces of reference position information, and repeatedly executing the iterative process of constructing a characterization function of a target straight line according to the arbitrary two pieces of reference position information in the currently traversed reference position information group to judge whether the sampling number of the reference position information with the distance smaller than the preset distance between the target straight line and the reference position information group is larger than the corresponding target number of the currently traversed reference position information group or not based on the updated arbitrary two pieces of reference position information until the current sampling number is larger than the corresponding target number.
Specifically, when the number of samples of the reference position information, of which the distance between the reference position information group and the target straight line is smaller than the preset distance, in the currently traversed reference position information group is smaller than the corresponding target number, that is, num < m×p, any two pieces of reference position information are reselected from the currently traversed reference position information group as updated any two pieces of reference position information, any two pieces of reference position information in the currently traversed reference position information group are repeatedly executed based on the updated any two pieces of reference position information, and an iterative process of constructing a characterization function of the target straight line until judging whether the number of samples of the reference position information, of which the distance between the reference position information group and the target straight line is smaller than the preset distance, in the currently traversed reference position information group is larger than the corresponding target number of the currently traversed reference position information group is performed until the current number of samples is larger than the corresponding target number.
The above embodiment shows that, by using the random sampling consistency algorithm, the straight line where the target reference point corresponding to the reference position information group traversed at present is located is determined, and the sampling installation angle is determined based on the slope of the straight line, so that the occupied memory of the random access memory can be reduced, and meanwhile, the operation complexity is also effectively reduced.
And S205, when the traversal is finished, filtering the plurality of sampling installation angles obtained in the traversal process of the plurality of first reference position information groups to obtain the first installation angles.
And S207, filtering the plurality of sampling installation angles obtained in the traversal process of the plurality of second reference position information groups to obtain the second installation angles.
Alternatively, the filter of the filtering process may be a statistical filter, and the statistical filter may include, but is not limited to, an average statistical filter, a median statistical filter, and a maximum and minimum statistical filter.
And S107, when the error between the first installation angle and the second installation angle meets a first preset error condition, performing self-calibration processing of the current installation angle according to the first installation angle and the second installation angle to obtain the target installation angle of the vehicle-mounted radar.
Optionally, the first preset error condition may be that an error between the first installation angle and the second installation angle is smaller than a first preset angle error, and the first preset angle error may be set in combination with accuracy of installation angle self-calibration in practical application. When the error between the first installation angle and the second installation angle is smaller than the first preset angle error, average value calculation can be carried out on the first installation angle and the second installation angle, and the target installation angle is obtained.
In an optional embodiment, after the controlling the vehicle-mounted radar to acquire the plurality of first reference position information sets and the plurality of second reference position information sets on the target reference objects on both sides of the road where the target vehicle is located, the method may further include:
And when the iterative process corresponding to the plurality of first reference position information groups is finished, and the sampling number corresponding to each first reference position information group is smaller than the target number corresponding to each first reference position information group, taking the second installation angle as the target installation angle.
Specifically, in the plurality of first reference position information sets, the target linear equation corresponding to each first reference position information set cannot be obtained, so that a plurality of sampling installation angles cannot be obtained, and when the first installation angle is determined, the second installation angle is taken as the target installation angle.
And when the iterative process corresponding to the plurality of second reference position information groups is finished, and the sampling number corresponding to each second reference position information group is smaller than the target number corresponding to each second reference position information group, taking the first installation angle as the target installation angle.
Specifically, in the plurality of second reference position information sets, the target linear equation corresponding to each second reference position information set cannot be obtained, so that a plurality of sampling installation angles cannot be obtained, and when the second installation angle is determined, the first installation angle is taken as the target installation angle.
According to the embodiment, various target installation angle determining methods are designed according to actual acquisition conditions, so that universality of the calibration method is improved.
In an alternative embodiment, the method may further include:
And when the error between the target installation angle and the current installation angle meets a second preset error condition, calibrating the position information of the target object output by the vehicle-mounted radar based on the target installation angle.
Specifically, the second preset error condition may be that an error between the target installation angle and the current installation angle is smaller than a second preset angle error, and the second preset angle error may be set in combination with accuracy of installation angle self-calibration in practical application. The target object may be an obstacle on a road on which the target vehicle is located.
It can be seen from the above embodiments that the accuracy of radar positioning is ensured by performing calibration processing on the positioning information, thereby ensuring the safety of automatic driving of the vehicle.
In another alternative embodiment, the method may further include:
and when the error between the first installation angle and the second installation angle does not meet the first preset error condition or the error between the target installation angle and the current installation angle does not meet the second preset error condition, controlling an automatic driving system of the target vehicle to start a functional safety mechanism.
Specifically, when the error between the first installation angle and the second installation angle does not meet the first preset error condition or the error between the target installation angle and the current installation angle does not meet the second preset error condition, the error of the current installation angle of the vehicle-mounted radar is considered to be larger, and the calibration processing cannot be performed on the position information of the target object output by the vehicle-mounted radar based on the target installation angle. Therefore, the warning measures such as an outgoing message can be adopted to inform the target vehicle: the current installation angle error of the vehicle-mounted radar is larger, and the output position information of the target object is not accurate any more; and simultaneously informing an automatic driving system: the position information of the target object output by the vehicle radar is in an abnormal state, and the automatic driving system is controlled to start a functional safety mechanism.
According to the embodiment, the automatic driving system is informed of the abnormal state by means of warning measures such as an outgoing message, so that the automatic driving system starts a functional safety mechanism, and the safety of automatic driving of the vehicle is guaranteed.
In practical application, before the target vehicle is powered down, the target installation angle of the vehicle-mounted radar needs to be stored, so that the vehicle-mounted radar can accurately output the position information of the target object after the next power-up of the target vehicle.
