When the signal of the steering wheel shows 0, the vehicle still deviates to one side of the left side and the right side in the driving process. The presence of a zero yaw angle of the steering wheel can increase the lateral error of the vehicle during travel. Currently, an existing steering wheel zero-offset angle calibration method usually collects steering wheel angle information of a vehicle maintaining straight-line running in a running process, and performs manual calibration and correction.

firstly, mechanical abrasion of the vehicle in the driving process often causes the change of a steering wheel zero deflection angle, only manual calibration is adopted, the calibration efficiency is low, the transverse control precision of the vehicle in the automatic driving process cannot be guaranteed, and the driving safety of the vehicle is low.
Secondly, in the process of automatic zero-offset angle calibration of the steering wheel, as the number of times of calibration increases, old data is accumulated, thereby causing failure of automatic calibration.

By introducing the iterative equation with the forgetting factor, the proportion of the old data and the new data can be adjusted by the forgetting factor, and the problem of calibration failure caused by accumulation of the old data is avoided. In addition, considering that the calibration speed is influenced to a certain extent along with the increase of the data quantity, a forgetting factor updating formula is introduced to dynamically adjust the convergence speed. That is, the convergence speed can be accelerated when a smaller forgetting factor is employed, and the estimation accuracy can be improved when a larger forgetting factor is employed. By the method, the accuracy and the success rate of automatic calibration are ensured.

As an example, the executing body may determine the steering wheel zero-offset angle of the target vehicle according to the estimated front wheel zero-offset angle and the steering gear ratio corresponding to the target vehicle by the following formula:

firstly, determining whether a steering wheel zero deflection angle parameter in the vehicle configuration file has a corresponding parameter value.
And in response to the condition that the steering wheel zero-deviation angle does not exist, updating the steering wheel zero-deviation angle to a parameter value corresponding to the steering wheel zero-deviation angle parameter.
And thirdly, responding to the existence, and determining whether the parameter value is consistent with the steering wheel zero deflection angle.
And fourthly, in response to the fact that the parameter value is not consistent with the steering wheel zero deflection angle, updating the parameter value through the steering wheel zero deflection angle.
The above embodiments of the present disclosure have the following advantages: the steering wheel zero-offset angle determining method of some embodiments of the present disclosure improves calibration efficiency, ensures lateral control accuracy of a vehicle in an automatic driving process, and improves driving safety of the vehicle. Specifically, the reasons that the calibration efficiency is low, the lateral control accuracy of the vehicle in the automatic driving process cannot be guaranteed, and the driving safety of the vehicle is low are that: mechanical abrasion of the vehicle in the driving process often causes the change of a zero deflection angle of a steering wheel, the calibration efficiency is low only by manual calibration, the transverse control precision of the vehicle in the automatic driving process cannot be guaranteed, and the driving safety of the vehicle is low. Based on this, the steering wheel zero offset angle determining method of some embodiments of the present disclosure first obtains vehicle operation data of a target vehicle, where the vehicle operation data includes: vehicle speed information and steering wheel angle. Thus, basic driving data of the vehicle is obtained. Then, in response to the fact that the vehicle speed corresponding to the vehicle speed information is larger than a preset vehicle speed and the steering wheel angle is larger than or smaller than a preset steering wheel threshold value, executing the following steering wheel zero offset angle determining step: firstly, determining an observation matrix, a covariance matrix and a gain matrix according to the vehicle course angle corresponding to the target vehicle. And secondly, determining a prediction residual error according to the observation matrix, the covariance matrix and the gain matrix. And thirdly, determining the front wheel zero deflection angle estimated value of the target vehicle at the current moment according to the prediction residual error. Thereby obtaining an estimated value of the front wheel zero slip angle. And fourthly, responding to the fact that the front wheel zero-offset angle estimated value is converged, and determining the steering wheel zero-offset angle of the target vehicle according to the front wheel zero-offset angle estimated value and the steering transmission ratio corresponding to the target vehicle. When the front wheel zero offset angle estimated value converges, the front wheel zero offset angle estimated value can be regarded as the actual zero offset angle of the current front wheel. Therefore, the steering wheel zero-offset angle can be converted according to the steering transmission ratio of the vehicle. And fifthly, updating the steering wheel zero-offset angle parameter in the vehicle configuration file corresponding to the target vehicle according to the steering wheel zero-offset angle. Therefore, the zero deflection angle parameter of the steering wheel corresponding to the steering wheel is updated in real time, and the aim of calibrating the steering wheel is fulfilled. By the method, the automatic calibration of the zero deflection angle of the steering wheel of the vehicle is realized, the transverse control precision of the vehicle in the automatic driving process is ensured, and the driving safety of the vehicle is improved.
