Description

Rollover-prevention driving decision method for large-sized operation vehicle considering influence of front obstacle
Technical Field
The invention relates to a rollover prevention driving decision method, in particular to a rollover prevention driving decision method for a large-sized operating vehicle considering the influence of a front obstacle, and belongs to the technical field of automobile safety.
Background
The operating vehicle is used as a main undertaker of road transportation in China, and the safety condition of the operating vehicle directly influences the road transportation safety in China. In case of traffic accidents in the transportation process, serious consequences such as group death, falling of goods, burning, explosion and the like are easily caused, bad effects such as property loss, environmental pollution, ecological damage and the like are caused, and large-scale and extra-large-scale safety accidents are easily induced, so that road traffic safety is seriously threatened.
Related data of the U.S. highway traffic safety authorities indicate that the degree of damage to rollover accidents is next to collision accidents in all commercial vehicle traffic accidents, with the 2 nd position. Therefore, the active rollover prevention and control has important significance for guaranteeing road traffic safety and improving the prevention and control capability of serious accidents of road transportation. The rollover prevention driving decision is taken as an important ring of rollover active prevention and control, if a reasonable rollover prevention intervention strategy can be determined before a rollover accident occurs, accurate and reliable braking and deceleration driving strategies are provided for operating vehicles, and the occurrence frequency of traffic accidents caused by rollover can be greatly reduced.
At present, literature and patent research on a rollover prevention driving decision method mainly comprises a dynamic model-based method and a data driving-based method. The rollover prevention decision method based on the dynamic model is to identify the vehicle rollover risk by using parameters such as lateral acceleration, roll angle and the like, take the wheel braking force or steering angle as control quantity, and establish a rollover prevention control strategy by using control algorithms such as PID (Proportional INTEGRAL DERIVATIVE) control, sliding mode control and the like. However, the dynamics models of different vehicles have variability, making rollover prevention decisions less reliable and adaptable.
The rollover prevention decision method based on data driving is to extract and analyze data such as vehicle motion state information, train and fit a model through an interactive self-learning mechanism, and further form an automatic decision model, and is rarely used at present. The invention relates to a heavy-duty commercial vehicle rollover-prevention driving decision method based on deep reinforcement learning (publication number: CN 112580148A) and a large-scale commercial vehicle rollover-prevention decision method considering road surface attachment conditions (application number: 202111225841.9), which are used for establishing a rollover-prevention driving decision model by utilizing a deep reinforcement learning algorithm to obtain a rollover-prevention driving strategy of the commercial vehicle. However, the traffic environment to which the above patent is applicable is relatively simple, and the influence of the preceding vehicle on the rollover prevention driving decision is not considered.
In general, although the above two methods have a certain rollover prevention effect, there is still a disadvantage in terms of effectiveness and reliability of decision making, because potential safety hazards in executing the rollover prevention driving strategy are not considered. Particularly, in a traffic environment where an obstacle exists in front of a commercial vehicle, if rollover prevention driving strategies such as release braking are adopted, a longer braking distance is likely to increase the risk of forward collision. If emergency braking is performed, forward collision can be avoided, but excessive braking deceleration further aggravates the rollover risk of the vehicle, so that the operating vehicle is more easily unstable to rollover, and the rollover prevention effect cannot be achieved. Therefore, reasonable and effective rollover prevention driving decision should be taken into consideration both the forward collision prevention and rollover prevention.
The existing rollover-preventing driving decision method for the large-scale commercial vehicle does not consider the influence of a front obstacle on driving safety, ignores potential safety hazards in the process of executing a rollover-preventing driving strategy, and cannot meet the driving safety requirements of simultaneously avoiding forward collision and vehicle rollover. Under the traffic environment that the obstacle exists in front of the commercial vehicle, an effective and reliable rollover driving prevention decision method for the large-scale commercial vehicle is not available.

When the self-vehicle brakes, changes lanes or passes through a curve, decision strategies such as braking deceleration, steering and the like are provided for a driver effectively and timely in order to ensure driving safety.
In the present invention, multilane means that the number of lanes is 3 or more. The front vehicle is a vehicle which is located in front of a road on which a large-sized operating vehicle (own vehicle) travels, and which is located in the same lane line, has the same traveling direction, and is closest to the road.
Step two: establishing rollover-preventing driving decision model of large-scale operation vehicle

The invention adopts a standard strategy gradient algorithm, establishes a rollover prevention driving decision model based on the traffic scene in the step one, and researches the rollover prevention driving strategy of the operating vehicle under the condition that the front obstacle exists. The method specifically comprises the following 4 substeps:
Sub-step 1: basic parameters defining rollover prevention driving decision model
Considering that the future motion state of a large-sized operating vehicle is influenced by the current motion state and the current motion at the same time, the invention models the rollover prevention driving decision problem as a Markov decision process and defines basic parameters of the model: state space S t at time t, state space S t+1 at time t+1, action space a t at time t, and return value R t corresponding to action space a t. Specifically:
(1) Defining a state space
Roll stability of large commercial vehicles is related not only to the state of motion of the vehicle itself but also to the road state. Thus, the present invention defines a state space using vehicle motion state information:
St=[vlon,vhor,alon,ahoryawrollswabrakethr,Lf,Drel] (1)
Wherein v lon,vhor represents the longitudinal speed and the transverse speed of the large-scale operation vehicle respectively, and the units are meters per second; a lon,ahor represents longitudinal acceleration and lateral acceleration respectively, and the unit is square seconds every second meter, and can be obtained through measurement of a centimeter-level high-precision integrated navigation system; omega yawroll respectively represents yaw rate and roll angle, and the units are radian per second and degree respectively, and can be obtained through measurement of an MEMS gyroscope; theta swa is the steering wheel angle of the vehicle, delta brakethr is the opening degree of a brake pedal and the opening degree of a throttle valve respectively, and the units are percentages, and CAN be obtained by reading the CAN bus information of the vehicle body; l f is the transverse transfer rate of the leaf spring pressure, and can be obtained through calculation of the pressure borne by the axle leaf spring measured by the pressure sensor, D rel is the relative distance between the vehicle and the front vehicle, the unit is meter, and the axle leaf spring can be obtained through millimeter wave radar acquisition.
(2) Defining an action space
In order to comprehensively consider the influence of transverse and longitudinal control on rollover prevention and reasonably and effectively output a rollover prevention driving decision strategy, the invention takes steering wheel rotation angle and brake pedal opening as control amounts, and defines the driving strategy output by a decision model, namely an action space A t=[θswa_outbrake_out at the moment t.
Wherein, θ swa_out represents the normalized steering wheel angle control amount, the range is [ -1,1], and δ brake_out represents the normalized brake pedal opening, the range is [0,1]. When δ brake =0, it means that the vehicle is not braked, and when δ brake =1, it means that the vehicle is braked at the maximum braking deceleration.
(3) Defining a reward function
In order to realize quantitative evaluation of the advantages and disadvantages of the action space, the invention designs the reward function as follows:
Rt=δ1·r1(t)+δ2·r2(t)+r3(t) (2)
Wherein R t is a total rewarding function at the moment t, and R 1(t),r2(t),r3 (t) respectively represents a side-turning preventing rewarding function, a rear-end collision preventing rewarding function and a punishment function; delta 12 represents the weight coefficient of the rollover prevention bonus function and the weight coefficient of the rear-end collision prevention bonus function, respectively.
Considering the problem of lack of accuracy in estimating rollover risk by utilizing a single rollover characterization parameter, comprehensively considering the influence of 3 characterization parameters of the roll angle, the lateral acceleration and the leaf spring pressure lateral load transfer rate on rollover, and establishing an anti-rollover reward function r 1 (t):
Wherein a thrthr,Lthr represents a preset lateral acceleration threshold value, a preset roll angle threshold value and a preset leaf spring pressure lateral transfer rate threshold value, and mu 1 represents a weight coefficient of a reward function r 1 (t);
In order to reduce potential safety hazards in the process of executing the rollover prevention driving strategy, a large-sized operating vehicle should be prevented from colliding with a front obstacle in the rollover prevention decision process; to this end, a forward anti-collision reward function r 2 (t) is established:
r2(t)=μ2|Drel-Dsafe| (4)
Wherein D safe represents the safe distance between the own vehicle and the preceding vehicle, and μ 2 represents the weight coefficient of the reward function r 2 (t);
Considering reasonable safety distance, the traffic efficiency and the driving safety are considered at the same time; for this purpose, a variable headway is used as the minimum safety distance D w for the autonomous operating vehicle;
Dw=vlonτ+vforT+Lmin (5)
Where τ represents the headway in seconds, v for represents the speed of the vehicle ahead in meters per second, and L min represents the critical distance in meters;
to correct the error strategy in the driving decision process, a penalty function is established:
r3(t)=-Spen (6)
In the formula, S pen is a penalty value, and in the invention, S pen =200 is taken to represent that if a rollover or rear-end collision accident occurs to the vehicle, the decision model obtains a penalty of-200.

And constructing a rollover prevention driving decision model by using an Actor-Critic framework, wherein the decision model comprises an Actor network and a Critic network. The Actor network takes a state space S t as input and carries out regression on the feature vectors, so that continuous action A t is output; the Critic network takes as input the state space S t and action a t to evaluate the value of the current "state-action".
Three layers of full-connection networks with the same structure are built for the Actor and the Critic networks, the activation functions of the three layers of networks are all linear rectification functions (RECTIFIED LINEAR Unit, reLU), and the expression is as follows: f (x) =max (0, x).
Step three: training rollover prevention driving decision model
Training parameters in the rollover prevention driving decision model, wherein the method specifically comprises the following steps of:
Sub-step 1: initializing a parameter theta 0 of the strategy function and a parameter phi 0 of the value function;
Sub-step 2: iteratively updating parameters of the policy function and the value function, each iteration comprising sub-steps 2.1 to 2.6, in particular:
Substep 2.1: executing a policy pi k=π(θk in the environment), gathering a set of tracks D k={τi;
substep 2.2: calculating a subsequent discount prize value
Substep 2.3: based on the current value functionTaking the time sequence difference algorithm as an estimated value of the advantage function, and calculating an estimated value of the advantage function;
Substep 2.4: estimating a strategy gradient;
substep 2.5: updating a calculation strategy;
Substep 2.6: fitting a value function;
Sub-step 3: and (3) carrying out iterative updating according to the methods provided in the substep 1 and the substep 2, so that the rollover prevention driving decision model gradually converges. In the training process, if the vehicle turns over or collides, the current round is terminated and a new round is started to train. And when the iteration reaches the maximum times or the large-scale operation vehicle stably and effectively realizes rollover prevention by utilizing the decision strategy output by the model, indicating that the iteration is completed.
Finally, the motion state information of the large-scale operation vehicle is input into the trained rollover-preventing driving decision model, so that the rollover-preventing driving decision strategy can be output on line, and the effective and reliable rollover-preventing driving decision of the large-scale operation vehicle is realized.
The beneficial effects are that: compared with a general rollover prevention driving decision method, the method provided by the invention has the characteristics of more effectiveness and reliability, and is specifically embodied as follows:
(1) According to the method provided by the invention, a refined reward function is designed aiming at the dynamic coupling of the rollover prevention elements in the driving decision process, the influence of factors such as a driving safety threshold value, a forward obstacle type, vehicle rolling stability and the like on the driving safety of the commercial vehicle is comprehensively considered, and rollover prevention driving strategies such as straight running, steering, acceleration, deceleration and the like under different driving working conditions can be output, so that the effective and reliable rollover prevention driving decision of the commercial vehicle is realized.
