The lengths of the acceleration section, the constant speed section and the deceleration section need to be flexibly set according to the length of the waypoint track, and the method is not strictly limited.

and step 304, determining the expected acceleration of the front wheel of the vehicle according to the speed of the preview point and the speed and the acceleration of the front wheel of the vehicle.
In the step 301, the distance between each waypoint in the waypoint trajectory and the position point of the front wheel of the vehicle may be calculated, and the waypoint with the minimum distance is selected as the first waypoint; or, fitting a curve to the locus of the waypoints, projecting the position points of the front wheels of the vehicle onto the fitted curve to obtain projection points, and determining the projection points as the first waypoints.
In an alternative embodiment, in step 302, the preview distance is determined according to the speed and acceleration of the front wheel of the vehicle and a preset minimum preview distance, which can be calculated by the following formula (1):

In the formula (1), preview dis For the pre-aiming distance, v nosewhee For the speed of the front wheels of the vehicle, τ is a preset lag time, a nosewhee D is the preset minimum pre-aiming distance.

Figure GDA0003321122000000062
is the sum of k histories e (k).
In some alternative embodiments, the longitudinal control module 22 determines the output torque of the front wheels of the vehicle based on the speed and the desired acceleration of the front wheels of the vehicle, including: and determining output torque corresponding to the speed and the expected acceleration of the front wheels of the vehicle from the preset corresponding relation among the speed, the expected acceleration and the output torsion of the front wheels of the vehicle.
In one particular example, the correspondence between the speed of the front wheels of the vehicle, the desired acceleration and the output torsion is pre-processed in the following way:
firstly, selecting a test road, controlling an unmanned vehicle to adjust the initial angle of front wheels of the vehicle to be 90 degrees to the left, adjusting a gear, and controlling an automatic driving vehicle to run along a waypoint track of the front wheels of the vehicle;
secondly, recording a MAP graph of the speed of front wheels of the vehicle, the acceleration of the front wheels of the vehicle and the output torque in the process that the automatic driving vehicle runs along the road point track;

Figure GDA0003321122000000071
TABLE 1
Finally, the two-dimensional table of table 1 is converted into a two-dimensional table of drive torque versus vehicle front wheel speed and desired acceleration using matlab, as shown in table 2 (the specific values of the parameters in table 2 are merely examples and are not limiting):
Figure GDA0003321122000000081
TABLE 2
Of course, in some other alternative embodiments, instead of creating a two-dimensional table, a graph between the speed of the front wheels of the vehicle and the desired acceleration, output torque, may be created according to the foregoing steps.
The expected output torque is obtained by looking up the table 2 through a method of performing two-dimensional linear interpolation on the speed of the front wheels and the acceleration of the expected wheels, so that the speed control in the pivot steering mode is realized.
In an alternative embodiment, the longitudinal control module 22 determines the output torque corresponding to the speed and the desired acceleration of the front wheel of the vehicle from a preset corresponding relationship among the speed, the desired acceleration and the output torque of the front wheel of the vehicle, and specifically includes: and searching for the expected output torque corresponding to the speed and the expected acceleration of the front wheels of the vehicle from the corresponding relation by adopting a two-dimensional linear interpolation algorithm according to the speed and the expected acceleration of the front wheels of the vehicle.
In some preferred embodiments, the longitudinal control module 22 is further configured to, during the process of controlling the vehicle front wheels to rotate along the waypoint trajectory according to the output torque, determine whether the vehicle front wheels rotate to an end point of the waypoint trajectory, and if so, send a turn-back instruction to the lateral control module 21; the lateral control module 21 is further configured to control the front wheels of the vehicle to turn back to a preset third angle upon receiving a turn-back instruction.
In some alternative embodiments, the third angle may be 0 degrees or approximately 0 degrees.
In some alternative embodiments, the longitudinal control module 22 is further configured to determine that pivot steering has failed if there is an obstacle scram before determining that the front wheels of the vehicle are turning to the end of the waypoint trajectory. For example, in one embodiment, when the planning decision module 1 determines that an obstacle output scram command is present ahead of the autonomous vehicle, the longitudinal control module 22 determines that an obstacle scram is present and determines that pivot steering fails.
In some optional embodiments, the longitudinal control module 22 is further configured to determine that the pivot steering fails if the eps is determined to fail during the process of the lateral control module 21 controlling the front wheels of the vehicle to turn back to the preset third angle. For example, in one embodiment, after sending the turn back instruction to the lateral control module 21, the longitudinal control module 22 continuously detects the eps angle value through the Canbus, determines whether the front wheels of the vehicle turn back to the third angle according to the eps angle value, and if so, determines that the pivot steering is successful; if the pivot steering is determined to fail when the eps is judged to have a fault according to the eps angle value, for example, the read front wheel angle value obviously does not belong to the normal angle range, or the angle value of the front wheel of the vehicle, which is read for a long time, is kept unchanged and is not the third angle, and the like.
In some preferred embodiments, the longitudinal control module 22, upon determining that the pivot steering is successful, sends a message to the planning decision module 1 indicating that the pivot steering is successful; the longitudinal control module 22, upon determining a pivot steering failure, sends a message to the planning decision module 1 indicating a pivot steering failure.
In some optional embodiments, the longitudinal control module 21 determines whether the front wheel of the vehicle rotates to the end of the waypoint trajectory, specifically including: selecting a second waypoint closest to the front wheels of the vehicle from the waypoint tracks; calculating the distance between the second waypoint and the endpoint of the waypoint track; and if the distance is smaller than a preset distance threshold value, determining that the front wheel of the vehicle rotates to the end point of the waypoint track.
In a specific implementation, the longitudinal control module 22 implements matching of a second waypoint closest to the front wheels of the vehicle during control of the front wheels of the vehicle to travel along the waypoint trajectory, and calculates a distance between the second waypoint and an end point of the waypoint trajectory; judging whether the distance is smaller than a set distance threshold value, if so, determining that the front wheel of the vehicle reaches the end point, otherwise, determining that the front wheel of the vehicle does not reach the end point, and sending a false mark (namely, an indication of not turning back to a third angle) to the transverse control module 21; upon determining that the vehicle front wheel has reached the end point, it is determined whether the speed of the vehicle front wheel is 0 or approximately 0, if not a false flag is sent to the lateral control module 21 (i.e., no turning back to the third angle), and if so, indicating that the autonomous vehicle has been adjusted to a preferred target pose, then a true flag (i.e., an indication of turning back to the third angle) is sent to the lateral control module 21.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the longitudinal control module 22 and the lateral control module 21 in the control module 2 determine whether to enter the pivot steering mode according to the pivot steering flag sent by the planning decision module 1, and when the pivot steering flag is true, determine that the pivot steering mode needs to be entered. After entering the pivot steering mode, the transverse control module 21 continuously detects a front wheel angle restoration flag sent by the longitudinal control module, and when the front wheel angle restoration flag is false, the automatic driving vehicle does not complete pivot steering, and at the moment, the transverse control module 21 sends a control instruction to turn the front wheel angle by 90 degrees to the left; when the recovered front wheel angle flag is detected to be true, which indicates that the longitudinal control module 22 has controlled the front wheels of the vehicle to reach the end point of the waypoint trajectory and complete pivot steering, the lateral control module 21 sends a control instruction to recover the front wheel angle of the vehicle to 0 °.
When entering the pivot steering mode, the longitudinal control module firstly checks the eps angle analyzed by the serial bus (canbus) module, and if the angle of the front wheel of the vehicle does not reach 90 degrees or approximate 90 degrees leftwards, the longitudinal control module keeps the front wheel of the vehicle in a static state and waits for the front wheel of the vehicle to turn leftwards to be close to 90 degrees.
The longitudinal control module 22 detects a road direction sign sent by the planning decision module 1 when detecting that the front wheel angle of the vehicle has turned to the left to be around 90 degrees, and sets the gear of the automatic driving vehicle as a forward gear if the road direction sign indicates that the vehicle turns to the left (for example, the road direction sign is 2); if the road direction flag indicates a turn to the right (e.g., road direction flag is 3), the gear of the autonomous vehicle is set to reverse.
The longitudinal control module 22 continuously judges whether the front wheels of the vehicle reach the end point of the waypoint track or not in the process of controlling the automatic driving vehicle to run along the waypoint track; if so, determining whether the speed of the front wheel of the vehicle is 0, if so, sending a recovered front wheel angle flag to the lateral control module 21 as true, otherwise, sending the recovered front wheel angle flag as false.
After the longitudinal control module 22 sends the flag indicating that the angle of the recovered front wheel is true to the transverse control module 21, continuously detecting the eps angle of the front wheel of the vehicle, judging whether the angle of the front wheel is recovered to 0 degree, and if so, feeding back the pivot steering success flag to the planning decision module 1; if not, judging whether an eps fault exists or not, if the eps fault exists, feeding back an in-situ steering failure mark to the planning decision module 1, and if the eps fault does not exist, feeding back the in-situ steering mark to the planning decision module 1.
