Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. 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 invention.
The inventor finds that the scheme of applying the LiFi technology to the vehicle for information interaction with other vehicles generally uses the original vehicle lamp as the LiFi signal transceiver module, which has the following problems:
1. under the general condition, when daytime natural light was sufficient, the user can not open the car light, just can't work so to the liFi equipment of car light as the light source, even the user has opened the car light, but because the influence of factors such as daytime natural light is stronger, the work efficiency of liFi equipment, the accuracy of receiving and dispatching information are all lower.
2. At night, natural light is weak, the vehicle lamp can be turned on, but if the vehicle lamp is turned on to be close to the light, the irradiation distance of the vehicle lamp is small, and the vehicle lamp can only irradiate within a range of about tens of meters, so that the working capacity of the LiFi equipment is obviously influenced; if the headlight is turned on, although the distance of the headlight is increased, the headlight is easy to dazzle the front vehicle, which is not favorable for the safe driving of the front vehicle.
In view of the above problems, the inventors have conducted extensive research, calculation, simulation and field test to inventively provide the vehicle information interaction system of the present invention, and the following describes and explains the technical solution of the present invention in detail.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a vehicle information interaction system according to an embodiment of the invention. The system comprises: visible light wireless communication device, LiFi device, the visible light wireless communication device includes: a transmitting end and a receiving end. Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, receiving terminals 1, 2, 3 are disposed at the rear of the vehicle, and transmitting terminals 5, 6, and a controller 4 of the LiFi device are disposed at the front of the vehicle. It should be noted that, in practice, the transmitting end and the receiving end of the LiFi device need to be arranged at both the vehicle head and the vehicle tail, but for simplicity of illustration, only the transmitting ends 5, 6 at the front of the vehicle, and the receiving ends 1, 2, 3 at the vehicle tail are exemplarily shown in fig. 1.
In the embodiment of the invention, the LiFi device takes infrared light as a light source, is independently arranged at the head part and the tail part of a vehicle, and performs data interaction with a Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) of the vehicle through a controller 4 of the LiFi device; one preferred mode is that the receiving end and the sending end of the LiFi equipment are arranged outside a lampshade of a vehicle, so that the influence of the vehicle lamp on receiving and sending of the LiFi equipment is avoided; of course, due to the characteristics of infrared light, the receiving end and the transmitting end of the LiFi device can be installed in the vehicle lamp cover.
In the embodiment of the present invention, a receiving end of a LiFi device includes: a photosensor or other light sensitive sensor or other device that can receive the LiFi signal is also possible. The receiving ends arranged at the tail part of the vehicle are sequentially arranged in the horizontal direction according to the sequence from the left side to the right side of the vehicle, and the arrangement is used for more accurately determining the position of the rear vehicle relative to the vehicle.
The vehicle information interaction system takes infrared light as a light source, does not use a vehicle lamp of a vehicle as the light source any more, has a single infrared light spectrum and is invisible, and is slightly influenced by an irradiation range and a use environment, so that the efficiency and the accuracy of information interaction between vehicles by the LiFi equipment are improved, and the system is favorable for the use of the LiFi equipment in more scenes. Meanwhile, the lamp cover is independently arranged at the head and the tail of the vehicle, so that the influence of the lamp cover of the vehicle lamp on the reception and transmission of the LiFi signal is not considered, the reception and transmission efficiency of the LiFi signal can be improved, and the efficiency and the accuracy of information interaction between vehicles by the LiFi device are further improved.
Based on the vehicle information interaction system, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for accurately determining a position of a rear vehicle, and referring to fig. 2, a flowchart of the method for determining a position of a rear vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown, and the method is applied to the vehicle information interaction system, and specifically includes the following steps:
step 201: and receiving vehicle signals sent by the rear vehicle through a plurality of receiving ends.
In the embodiment of the invention, the plurality of receiving terminals arranged at the tail part of the vehicle are sequentially arranged in the horizontal direction from the left side to the right side of the vehicle, so that after the rear vehicle sends the LiFi signals through respective LiFi devices, the receiving terminal at the tail part of the vehicle can receive the vehicle signals sent by the rear vehicle, namely, the plurality of receiving terminals receive the LiFi signals sent by the rear vehicle.
Of course, it can be understood that the host vehicle cannot receive the LiFi signal if the rear vehicle does not use the LiFi device for data transmission.
Step 202: the vehicle signal is interpreted to determine the signal quantity.
In the embodiment of the invention, after the receiving end receives the LiFi signals of the rear vehicles, the LiFi signals can be analyzed to determine the number of the signals, and the number of the signals can reflect the number of the rear vehicles. The method comprises the following specific steps:
step S1: and analyzing the vehicle signal to obtain the frame number.
In the embodiment of the invention, in order to distinguish the vehicles, each vehicle binds the unique number of the vehicle in the LiFi signal, and the unique number of the vehicle can be the frame number, namely, each LiFi signal sent out comprises the frame number of the vehicle. Of course, other identifiers may be used for binding as long as the condition that can distinguish the vehicles is satisfied.
After the receiving end of the vehicle receives a plurality of LiFi signals sent by vehicles behind, the frame number of the vehicle sending the LiFi signals can be obtained by analyzing each LiFi signal.
Step S2: in the case where the frame numbers are the same, the number of signals is determined to be one.
Step S3: and determining the number of the signals to be multiple under the condition that the frame numbers are different.
In the embodiment of the present invention, after the frame numbers included in each LiFi signal are obtained, if the frame numbers are the same, the number of the signals is determined to be one, and it should be noted that the number of the signals is one, which means that the LiFi signals are transmitted by the same vehicle, but does not mean that only one LiFi signal is transmitted by one vehicle. In actual use, as long as the LiFi device works normally, the LiFi device broadcasts the LiFi signals according to a set time period, so that the receiving end of the vehicle receives a plurality of LiFi signals, and after the frame numbers are obtained through analysis, the frame numbers are judged to be the same, the number of the vehicles behind can be determined to be one, and the number of the signals is also one.
Similarly, the receiving end of the vehicle receives a plurality of LiFi signals, and after the LiFi signals are analyzed to obtain the vehicle frame numbers, the vehicle frame numbers are judged to be different, if the vehicle frame numbers are different, the number of the vehicles behind is determined to be several, and the number of the signals is also several.
As an example: if there are 3 rear vehicles, the frame numbers are respectively: 555. 666, 777, the LiFi device of each vehicle broadcasts a LiFi signal via its respective transmitter, each LiFi signal including its respective frame number. The receiving end of the vehicle receives all LiFi signals, and the frame numbers 555, 666 and 777 can be obtained after analysis, so that the number of the rear vehicles is determined to be 3, and the number of the signals is also 3; similarly, if there are 1 rear vehicle, the frame number is: 555, the LiFi device of the vehicle broadcasts LiFi signals via the transmitter, each LiFi signal including its own frame number. The receiving end of the vehicle receives all LiFi signals, the frame number 555 can be obtained after analysis, although the received LiFi signals are multiple, the frame numbers are the same, the number of the vehicles behind is determined to be 1, and the number of the signals is also 1;
step 203: and determining the position of the rear vehicle relative to the rear vehicle according to the number of the signals and the strength of the vehicle signals.
In the embodiment of the invention, after the number of the signals is determined, namely the number of the vehicles behind is determined, the position of the vehicle behind relative to the vehicle behind can be determined according to the number of the signals and the strength of the vehicle signals. The method comprises the following specific steps:
step T1: and sequentially determining the strength and the number of the signals received by each receiving end according to the sequence from the left side to the right side of the vehicle.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the controller of the LiFI device, at the use place, needs to set an order for the receiving end of the tail of the vehicle, for example: setting a number 1, 2 and 3 … N for each receiving end according to the sequence from the left side to the right side of the vehicle; similarly, a number 1, 2, 3 … N may be set for each receiver in order from the right side to the left side of the vehicle; only the requirement of being able to distinguish each receiving end is satisfied.
After the receiving ends are set in sequence, the strength and the number of the signals received by each receiving end can be determined according to the set sequence.
Following the above example: if the vehicle tail has 3 receiving terminals arranged from the left side to the right side of the vehicle in sequence, the serial numbers are as follows: 1. 2 and 3, broadcasting LiFi signals by respective transmitting ends of rear vehicles, wherein each LiFi signal comprises a respective frame number. Then, according to the numbering sequence of the receiving terminals, the strength and the number of the LiFi signals received by the receiving terminal No. 1 are sequentially determined, the strength and the number of the LiFi signals received by the receiving terminal No. 2 are determined, and the strength and the number of the LiFi signals received by the receiving terminal No. 3 are determined.
Step V1: in the case where the intensity is gradually decreased and the number of signals is one, it is determined that the rear vehicle is located on the left side of itself.
Step V2: in the case where the intensity gradually increases and the number of signals is one, it is determined that the rear vehicle is located on the right side of itself.
In the embodiment of the invention, the strength and the number of the signals received by each receiving terminal are determined according to a set sequence, if the number of the LiFi signals is one, the number of the rear vehicles is one, and the strength of the LiFi signals is gradually reduced along with the sequence of the numbers of the receiving terminals, namely, the strength of the LiFi signals received by the No. 1 receiving terminal is the highest, the strength of the LiFi signals received by the No. 2 receiving terminal is higher, the strength of the LiFi signals received by the No. 3 receiving terminal is the lowest, and the rear vehicles broadcasting the LiFi signals are determined to be positioned on the left side of the vehicle because the receiving terminals are arranged in sequence from the left side to the right side of the vehicle.
Similarly, if the intensity of the LiFi signal is gradually increased along with the order of the numbers of the receiving terminals, that is, the intensity of the LiFi signal received by the receiving terminal No. 1 is the lowest, the intensity of the LiFi signal received by the receiving terminal No. 2 is higher, and the intensity of the LiFi signal received by the receiving terminal No. 3 is the highest, since the receiving terminals are arranged in the order from the left side to the right side of the vehicle, it is determined that the vehicle behind the LiFi signal is located on the right side of the vehicle.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the LiFi signal may further include: the host vehicle can calculate the detailed inter-vehicle distance of the rear vehicle from the host vehicle and perform warning based on the decrease tendency or increase of the recombination strength of the information. For example: when the distance between the rear vehicle and the vehicle is calculated to be smaller than the preset safe distance, alarm information is broadcasted to the rear vehicle through the LiFi device while the rear vehicle gives an alarm to remind a driver of the rear vehicle, the broadcasted alarm information can include the frame number of the rear vehicle, and therefore even if other vehicles receive the alarm information, the other vehicles cannot feed back the alarm information to the vehicles under the condition that the frame numbers are not matched, and the accuracy of the alarm information is guaranteed.
Step Q1: and comparing the intensity of the signals received by the same receiving end with the intensity of the signals received by the same receiving end under the condition that the intensity is gradually reduced and the number of the signals is multiple.
Step Q2: if the intensity of the first vehicle signal in the plurality of vehicle signals is greater than the intensity of the second vehicle signal, the first vehicle corresponding to the first vehicle signal is located on the left side of the first vehicle signal and is closer to the first vehicle signal, and the second vehicle corresponding to the second vehicle signal is located on the left side of the second vehicle signal and is farther from the second vehicle signal.
In the embodiment of the invention, similar to the case that the number of the signals is one, the principle is the same, the strength and the number of the signals received by each receiving end are determined according to the set sequence, and if the number of the LiFi signals is 2, the number of the rear vehicles is 2. The strength of the 2 LiFi signals is gradually reduced along with the sequence of the receiving end numbers, namely, the strength of the LiFi signal of the frame number 555 received by the receiving end number 1 is the highest, the strength of the LiFi signal of the frame number 555 received by the receiving end number 2 is higher, the strength of the LiFi signal of the frame number 555 received by the receiving end number 3 is the lowest, and a vehicle broadcasting the LiFi signal of the frame number 555 is determined to be positioned on the left side of the vehicle; similarly, the intensity of the LiFi signal of the frame number 666 received by the receiving terminal 1 is the highest, the intensity of the LiFi signal of the frame number 666 received by the receiving terminal 2 is higher, the intensity of the LiFi signal of the frame number 666 received by the receiving terminal 3 is the lowest, and it is determined that the vehicle behind the LiFi signal of the broadcasting frame number 666 is also located on the left side of the vehicle.
After determining that the vehicle behind the LiFi signal of the broadcasting frame number 555 and the vehicle behind the LiFi signal of the broadcasting frame number 666 are both located on the left side of the vehicle, comparing the intensity of the LiFi signal received by the same receiving end, namely comparing the intensity of the LiFi signal of the frame number 555 received by the receiving end No. 1 with the intensity of the LiFi signal of the frame number 666 received by the receiving end No. 1; if the intensity of the LiFi signal of the frame number 555 is greater than that of the LiFi signal of the frame number 666, it can be determined that the vehicle behind the LiFi signal broadcasting the frame number 555 is not only located on the left side of the vehicle and is closer to the vehicle, but the vehicle behind the LiFi signal broadcasting the frame number 666 is located on the left side of the vehicle but is further from the vehicle.
Similarly, as in the case of the above-mentioned one signal number, the host vehicle may also calculate the detailed vehicle distances between the two rear vehicles and the host vehicle, and issue an alarm when the early warning condition is met.
Step P1: comparing the intensity of a plurality of vehicle signals received by the same receiving end under the condition that the intensity is gradually increased and the number of the signals is multiple;
step P2: if the intensity of the first vehicle signal in the plurality of vehicle signals is greater than the intensity of the second vehicle signal, the first vehicle corresponding to the first vehicle signal is located on the right side of the first vehicle signal and is closer to the first vehicle signal, and the second vehicle corresponding to the second vehicle signal is located on the right side of the second vehicle signal and is farther from the second vehicle signal.
In the embodiment of the present invention, based on the same principle as described above, when the intensity is gradually increased and the number of the LiFi signals is multiple, it is determined that the rear vehicles are all located on the right side of the host vehicle, and then, compared with the intensity of the plurality of LiFi signals received by the same receiving end, if the intensity of the LiFi signal of the rack number 555 is greater than the intensity of the LiFi signal of the rack number 666, it can be determined that the rear vehicle broadcasting the LiFi signal of the rack number 555 is not only located on the right side of the host vehicle but also is closer to the host vehicle, and the rear vehicle broadcasting the LiFi signal of the rack number 666 is located on the right side of the host vehicle, but is further away from the host vehicle.
