Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for determining a road-mounted speed measuring device.
- Such special traffic features include, in particular in the course of the road built, stationary or mobile speed measuring systems of the regulatory authorities.
- Traffic announcements broadcast via broadcasting stations are now not only offered as voice messages but also encoded, e.g. About the so-called TMC system, which coded transmitted traffic news for equipped with appropriate receivers, set up for navigation and route navigation devices are receivable and readable, so that road users who use such navigation devices informed about lying on their route specific traffic conditions and warned accordingly can be or a route planning taking into account traffic specifics, eg bypassing existing road closures or links with other traffic obstructions, can be made by the route planning routine in the navigation device.
- Not only such devices are to be understood as navigation devices that are stationary installed in motor vehicles or designed and designed mobile exclusively for this purpose.
- Navigation devices in the context of this invention are in particular also mobile phones, smartphones, tablet PCs or other digital terminals, which have a location technology, in particular a GPS receiver and on which a navigation software is installed and running.
- users of certain navigation systems are today additionally informed about traffic-specific features, in particular about the installation site of speed-measuring devices and about sections with certain speed limits, about services offered by the navigation providers.
- traffic-specific features in particular about the installation site of speed-measuring devices and about sections with certain speed limits, about services offered by the navigation providers.
- Other traffic announcements are not only given to road users from the "official side", but here too there are parallel systems of navigation providers, which return user-derived information about special traffic features to their users.
- traffic-technical features in particular speed-measuring devices
- these must first be obtained. This happens in very different ways. For example, it has long been known that traffic monitoring takes place, for example, from the air, with police traffic surveillance helicopters or comparable aircraft surveying neuralgic sections or main road connections such as highways and with regard to the occurrence of special traffic features, such as accidents, broken-down vehicles and other obstacles, supervise, with detected traffic-technical characteristics these to a reporting center, from where they are distributed then.

- the US 2012/0065871 A1 deals with another possibility, traffic-specific features to recognize and report to a headquarters. It is suggested from data recorded for satellite positioning with the communication data for the acceleration or deceleration behavior of vehicles in which they are carried to close to special traffic features, in particular congestion and stop-and-go traffic, according to the statements in this Document can be distinguished by evaluating the acceleration and deceleration data of, for example, a ride on a provided with traffic lights route and driving behavior when passing through red phases. However, this document is silent with regard to a possible possibility to detect speed-measuring devices installed in traffic.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide a method for determining established in road speed measuring devices, which allows the high-speed measuring devices without high effort and yet reliable and this as far as possible automated and with high data density.
- acceleration and braking processes of motor vehicles which are undertaken by their motor vehicle drivers due to various traffic engineering situations, differ significantly in their respective pattern and time course. They have also found that can be drawn from the patterns of acceleration and / or braking processes so far on a cause of a corresponding driving behavior of the motor vehicle driver, in this case also on speed measuring devices.
- a braking maneuver when approaching a traffic light for example, differs. from a braking maneuver which is carried out due to a sudden obstacle.
- a central data collection point with which each of the communication devices is connected, these data and reported speed measurement devices are then first collected. Messages about the presence of a speed measuring device are then combined in the central data collecting point and, if a predetermined number or a threshold number is reached or exceeded, this speed measuring device is recorded as being reliably determined at the associated location.
- the analysis of braking and acceleration processes can be based on immediate measurement of acceleration or deceleration values or indirectly via an evaluation of the time course of carried out speed determinations.
- the communication devices transmit the temporally and spatially resolved data acquired by them via acceleration and braking processes of the motor vehicles in which they are carried, all to a central evaluation point in which the evaluation is carried out and then a message of the recognized Speed measuring device and the associated position data to the central data collection point.
- a method is complex and requires a large central processing power.
- the acceleration speed and braking processes of further parameters to be taken into account include the absolute speed traveled before a braking process for the detection of speed measuring devices. It can thereby be considered in particular and advantageously only braking and subsequent acceleration maneuvers of such vehicles for the evaluation of a possibly established in the section in question speedometer, which were previously driven faster than those at the point at which the braking maneuver, allowed maximum speed ,
- a threshold for a minimum overrun for example. 10% or an absolute value of eg 10 km / h can be set below which measured data are also disregarded.
- the maximum speeds at the respective sections can be known to the communication devices as a data set and included there directly in the evaluation. However, such values can also be stored in the central evaluation point and only then included in the evaluation.
- the determination of the movement data in this case the acceleration and braking data as well as the absolute speed, or the associated processes and the resulting temporal patterns and processes can be determined, for example, from changes in the position of the radio-located communication device.
- acceleration or speed sensors which are integrated in the communication device or are connected to it by signal technology for the determination of the measured values or signals.
- modern smartphones built-in acceleration sensors, which can be used for this purpose.
- the appropriate utilization of such hardware can be done by programming the software required for the operation of this method.
- FIG Claim 9 In order to be able to reduce the number of messages required for a secure acceptance of a detected speed measuring device (possibly even to be able to use these as the basis for a secure message even for a single message), in the method according to the invention, as in FIG Claim 9 can be set forth.
- the information then obtained can, if confirmed or corrected, be regarded as secured or can be given a higher value Be assigned importance, so that then only a smaller number of control messages of the same content needs to accept the assumed speed device as existing existing.
- a traffic control system has several set up for radio positioning and route guidance communication devices, such as GPS navigable navigation devices, be it in the form of specific separately formed as navigation devices, be it in the form of equipped with appropriate software smartphones, mobile phones, tablet PCs or Other digital devices, a central data collection point, which is set up to receive by means of the communication devices, in particular wirelessly transmitted data and a data transmitter, which is connected to the data collection point and set up for transmitting traffic control data to the communication devices.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Ermittlung einer im Straßenverkehr aufgestellten Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung.The present invention relates to a method for determining a road-mounted speed measuring device.
Im Straßenverkehr, der ein im hohen Maße dynamisches und dabei auch komplexes System darstellt, kommt es immer wieder zu verkehrstechnischen Besonderheiten, die an bestimmten Orten auftreten und über bestimmte Zeitspannen bestehen oder aber auch dauerhaft eingerichtet sind.On the road, which is a highly dynamic and at the same time complex system, there are always traffic-technical features that occur in certain places and persist for certain periods of time or are permanently set up.
Zu solchen verkehrstechnischen Besonderheiten zählen insbesondere im Verlauf der Straße errichtete, stationäre oder mobile Geschwindigkeitsmessanlagen der Ordnungsbehörden.Such special traffic features include, in particular in the course of the road built, stationary or mobile speed measuring systems of the regulatory authorities.
Nicht nur aus Gründen der bloßen Information an die Verkehrsteilnehmer, sondern auch aus Überlegungen heraus, so Einfluss auf die Routenfestlegung der einzelnen Verkehrsteilnehmer zu nehmen und damit verkehrstechnische Lenk- und Leitfunktionen zu erfüllen, ist man bemüht, Informationen über verkehrstechnische Besonderheiten, insbesondere Geschwindigkeitsmessanlagen, den Kraftfahrzeugführern möglichst umfangreich, zeitnah und genau zur Verfügung zu stellen. So gibt es schon seit vielen Jahren Verkehrsmeldungen über Rundfunksendungen, die von den Verkehrsteilnehmern über ihr Autoradio empfangen werden können. Verkehrsmeldungen sind ebenfalls schon lange über das Internet abrufbar.Not only for the sake of mere information to the road users, but also out of considerations to take such influence on the route setting of the individual road users and thus to meet traffic control and steering functions, it is trying to provide information on traffic characteristics, in particular speed measurement, the To provide motor vehicle guides as extensive, timely and accurate. For example, there have been traffic reports for many years about broadcasts that can be received by the road users via their car radio. Traffic reports have also been available on the Internet for a long time.
Verkehrsmeldungen, die über Rundfunksender verbreitet werden, werden inzwischen nicht nur als Sprachnachrichten angeboten, sondern auch kodiert, so z.B. über das sogenannte TMC-System, wobei diese kodiert übertragenen Verkehrsnachrichten für mit entsprechenden Empfängern ausgestattete, für eine Navigation und Routenführung eingerichtete Navigationsgeräte empfangbar und lesbar sind, so dass Verkehrsteilnehmer, die solche Navigationsgeräte nutzen, über an ihrer Route liegende verkehrstechnische Besonderheiten informiert und entsprechend gewarnt werden können bzw. eine Routenplanung unter Berücksichtigung verkehrstechnischer Besonderheiten, z.B. unter Umgehung von bestehenden Straßensperrungen oder Streckenabschnitten mit anderen Verkehrshindernissen, von der Routenplanungsroutine in dem Navigationsgerät vorgenommen werden kann. Hierbei sind als Navigationsgeräte nicht nur solche Geräte zu verstehen, die stationär in Kraftfahrzeugen eingebaut oder mobil ausschließlich für diesen Zweck konzipiert und gestaltet sind. Navigationsgeräte im Sinne dieser Erfindung sind insbesondere auch Mobiltelefone, Smartphones, Tablet-PC's oder sonstige digitale Endgeräte, die über eine Ortungstechnik, insbesondere einen GPS-Empfänger verfügen und auf denen eine Navigationssoftware installiert ist und läuft.Traffic announcements broadcast via broadcasting stations are now not only offered as voice messages but also encoded, e.g. About the so-called TMC system, which coded transmitted traffic news for equipped with appropriate receivers, set up for navigation and route navigation devices are receivable and readable, so that road users who use such navigation devices informed about lying on their route specific traffic conditions and warned accordingly can be or a route planning taking into account traffic specifics, eg bypassing existing road closures or links with other traffic obstructions, can be made by the route planning routine in the navigation device. Not only such devices are to be understood as navigation devices that are stationary installed in motor vehicles or designed and designed mobile exclusively for this purpose. Navigation devices in the context of this invention are in particular also mobile phones, smartphones, tablet PCs or other digital terminals, which have a location technology, in particular a GPS receiver and on which a navigation software is installed and running.
Weiterhin werden Nutzer von bestimmten Navigationssystemen heute zusätzlich über verkehrstechnische Besonderheiten, so insbesondere über den Aufstellungsort von Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen und über Streckenabschnitte mit bestimmten Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzungen, über von den Navigationsanbietern angebotene Dienste informiert. So gibt es bspw. regelmäßige Updates der Navigationssoftware, mit Übermittlung von Datensätzen, in denen stationär aufgebaute Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen in Ortschaften oder an anderen Verkehrswegepunkten eingetragen und aktualisiert gehalten werden. Mit diesen Daten verbunden sein können die jeweils an dem Standort der Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung geltende Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung bzw. zulässige Höchstgeschwindigkeit. Auch andere Verkehrsmeldungen werden heute nicht nur von "offizieller Seite" an die Verkehrsteilnehmer gegeben, auch hier gibt es parallele Systeme von Navigationsanbietern, die aus Nutzerdaten gewonnene Informationen über verkehrstechnische Besonderheiten an ihre Nutzer wieder zurück geben. Um entsprechende Informationen über verkehrstechnische Besonderheiten, insbesondere Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen, an die Verkehrsteilnehmer verbreiten und übermitteln zu können, müssen diese zunächst einmal gewonnen werden. Dies geschieht auf ganz unterschiedliche Art und Weise. So ist bspw. seit langem bekannt, dass Verkehrsüberwachung z.B. aus der Luft stattfindet, wobei polizeilich eingesetzte Verkehrsüberwachungshubschrauber oder vergleichbare Fluggeräte neuralgische Streckenabschnitte bzw. Hauptstraßenverbindungen wie etwa Autobahnen überfliegen und hinsichtlich des Auftretens verkehrstechnischer Besonderheiten, wie etwa Unfällen, liegen gebliebenen Fahrzeugen und anderen Hindernissen, überwachen, bei festgestellten verkehrstechnischen Besonderheiten diese an eine Meldezentrale melden, von wo aus sie dann verbreitet werden. Auch sind an besonders neuralgischen Straßenpunkten aufgestellte Kameraüberwachungssysteme bekannt, deren Bilddaten in zentralen Beobachtungsstellen überwacht und bei Auftreten von verkehrstechnischen Besonderheiten wie Verkehrshindernissen oder dergleichen zur Ausgabe einer entsprechenden Meldung genutzt werden. Auch ist es bekannt, die Verkehrsteilnehmer selbst in die Erfassung von verkehrstechnischen Besonderheiten einzubeziehen. So gibt es besondere Verkehrsmeldetelefonanschlüsse, bei denen sich Verkehrsteilnehmer, denen sich verkehrstechnische Besonderheiten wie etwa ein liegen gebliebenes Fahrzeug oder ein Unfall aufgefallen sind, telefonisch melden und die Art und den Ort der beobachteten verkehrstechnischen Besonderheit zur Anzeige bringen können.Furthermore, users of certain navigation systems are today additionally informed about traffic-specific features, in particular about the installation site of speed-measuring devices and about sections with certain speed limits, about services offered by the navigation providers. There are, for example, regular updates of the navigation software, with the transmission of data sets in which stationary speed measuring devices are recorded and updated in localities or other traffic route points. Connected to this data may be the respective speed limit or maximum speed valid at the location of the speed measuring device. Other traffic announcements are not only given to road users from the "official side", but here too there are parallel systems of navigation providers, which return user-derived information about special traffic features to their users. In order to be able to disseminate and transmit corresponding information about traffic-technical features, in particular speed-measuring devices, to the road users, these must first be obtained. This happens in very different ways. For example, it has long been known that traffic monitoring takes place, for example, from the air, with police traffic surveillance helicopters or comparable aircraft surveying neuralgic sections or main road connections such as highways and with regard to the occurrence of special traffic features, such as accidents, broken-down vehicles and other obstacles, supervise, with detected traffic-technical characteristics these to a reporting center, from where they are distributed then. Also set up on particularly sensitive streets road points camera surveillance systems are known whose image data monitored in central observation points and are used in the occurrence of special traffic conditions such as traffic obstructions or the like to issue a corresponding message. It is also known to involve the road users themselves in the detection of traffic-technical characteristics. Thus, there are special traffic information telephone connections, in which road users who have noticed traffic-specific features such as a broken-down vehicle or an accident, phone and report the nature and location of the observed traffic-technical feature to display.
Weiterhin sind Systeme bekannt, bei denen die Verkehrsteilnehmer besondere verkehrstechnische Besonderheiten durch eine Eingabe in ihr Navigationsgerät, z.B. durch Tastendruck, an eine Zentrale melden können. Die entsprechende Eingabe wird dann von einer Kommunikationseinheit des Navigationsgerätes an eine zentrale Datensammelstelle gemeldet und dort verarbeitet. Solche Vorgehensweisen sind bspw. in der
Die
Als Problem im Hinblick auf die vorbekannten Möglichkeiten und Methoden, verkehrstechnische Besonderheiten zu ermitteln, ist einerseits der erhebliche Aufwand (Installation von Kamerasystemen, Durchführung von Überwachungsflügen) zu sehen, der nur für bestimmte Streckenabschnitte eines Straßen- und Wegesystems überhaupt geleistet werden kann, andererseits und im Hinblick auf eine Meldung durch die Verkehrsteilnehmer die nur geringe Mitwirkung auf deren Seite. Auswertungen von Daten und Statistiken haben gezeigt, dass nur ein bis etwa zwei Prozent der Nutzer von Navigationsgeräten, die über eine Meldefunktion zur Meldung von verkehrstechnischen Besonderheiten, hier insbesondere Geschwindigkeitsmessanlagen, verfügen, von der Möglichkeit einer Meldung überhaupt Gebrauch machen. Die Datenlage, die bei den Datensammelstellen so eingehen und für eine Information der Verkehrsteilnehmer zur Verfügung steht, ist damit äußerst lückenhaft.As a problem in view of the previously known possibilities and methods to determine traffic-specific features, on the one hand the considerable effort (installation of camera systems, implementation of surveillance flights) to see that can be made only for certain sections of a road and path system, on the other hand and with regard to reporting by road users, only minor participation on their part. Evaluations of data and statistics have shown that only one to around two percent of users of navigation devices who have a reporting function for reporting traffic-specific characteristics, in particular speed measuring systems, make use of the possibility of a message at all. The data situation, which is received at the data collection points so and is available for information of the road users, is thus very incomplete.
Die in der
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, ein Verfahren zur Ermittlung von im Straßenverkehr aufgestellten Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen anzugeben, welches ohne hohen Aufwand und dennoch zuverlässig die Ermittlung der Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen ermöglicht und dies soweit als möglich automatisiert und mit großer Datendichte.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a method for determining established in road speed measuring devices, which allows the high-speed measuring devices without high effort and yet reliable and this as far as possible automated and with high data density.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen dieses Verfahrens sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen 2 bis 9 angegeben. In einem weiteren Aspekt wird diese Aufgabe gelöst durch ein Verkehrsleitsystem mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 10.This object is achieved by a method having the features of
Die Erfinder haben festgestellt, dass sich Beschleunigungs- und Bremsvorgänge von Kraftfahrzeugen, die von deren Kraftfahrzeugführern aufgrund verschiedener verkehrstechnischer Situationen unternommen werden, in ihrem jeweiligen Muster und zeitlichen Verlauf deutlich unterscheiden. Sie haben dabei ferner festgestellt, dass aus den Mustern von Beschleunigungs- und/oder Bremsvorgängen insoweit auf einen Anlass eines entsprechenden Fahrverhaltens des Kraftfahrzeugführers rückgeschlossen werden kann, hierbei gerade auch auf Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen. So unterscheidet sich generell (unabhängig von den jeweiligen Kraftfahrzeugführern) ein Bremsmanöver beim Heranfahren an eine Ampel z.B. von einem Bremsmanöver, welches aufgrund eines plötzlich auftretenden Hindernisses ausgeführt wird.The inventors have found that acceleration and braking processes of motor vehicles, which are undertaken by their motor vehicle drivers due to various traffic engineering situations, differ significantly in their respective pattern and time course. They have also found that can be drawn from the patterns of acceleration and / or braking processes so far on a cause of a corresponding driving behavior of the motor vehicle driver, in this case also on speed measuring devices. Thus, in general (regardless of the respective motor vehicle drivers), a braking maneuver when approaching a traffic light, for example, differs. from a braking maneuver which is carried out due to a sudden obstacle.
Brems- und Beschleunigungsmanöver, die Kraftfahrzeugführer von Kraftfahrzeugen vornehmen, wenn sie eine Geschwindigkeitsmessanlage bei schneller Fahrt, subjektiv jedenfalls als zu schnell empfundener Fahrt, frühzeitig erkennen oder aber von einer solchen Geschwindigkeitsmessanlage erfasst und unter Aussendung eines Lichtblitzes fotografiert worden sind, haben ein bestimmtes Muster. Denn Kraftfahrzeugführer bremsen hier sehr abrupt, um entweder ihre Geschwindigkeit noch rechtzeitig vor der Geschwindigkeitsmessanlage zu verringern oder aber als Schreckreaktion auf den Lichtblitz nach Auslösung der Messung, beschleunigen jedoch kurz nach der Geschwindigkeitsmessanlage in der Regel auf eine höhere Geschwindigkeit. Es ergibt sich in der Abfolge also in kurzer Zeitfolge ein charakteristisches abruptes Bremsmanöver mit einer darauf folgenden Beschleunigungsphase.Braking and acceleration maneuvers performed by motor vehicle drivers when using a speedometer at high speeds, Subjectively, at any rate, as perceived to be too fast, detected early, or detected by such a speedometer and photographed emitting a flash of light, have a certain pattern. Because motor vehicle drivers brake very abruptly, either to reduce their speed in good time before the speed measuring system or as a startle reaction to the flash of light after triggering the measurement, but accelerate shortly after the speed measuring system usually to a higher speed. This results in the sequence so in a short timeline a characteristic abrupt braking maneuver with a subsequent acceleration phase.
Die Idee und der Kerngedanke der Erfindung ist es nun, mit einem über Satellitenfunkortung verfolgbaren Kommunikationsgerät, wie es heute von vielen Kraftfahrzeugführern mitgeführt wird, z.B. in Form eines Navigationsgerätes mit Kommunikationsfunktionen entweder über Funknetzwerke oder über Internet, oder aber auch in Form eines Smartphones, Mobiltelefons oder eines Computers, wie z.B. eines Tablet-PCs, die Beschleunigungs- und Bremsvorgänge, die das von dem Kraftfahrzeugführer, der das Kommunikationsgerät bei sich trägt, gefahrene Kraftfahrzeug ausführt, sowie die jeweils gefahrene Geschwindigkeit aufzuzeichnen und diese Daten zu analysieren, um für die Reaktion auf eine von dem Fahrer erkannte Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung charakteristische Muster in diesen Beschleunigungs- und/oder Bremsvorgängen sowie dem Geschwindigkeitsverlauf zu erkennen und daraus auf das Vorhandensein einer Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung an dem Ort, an dem das Manöver stattgefunden hat, zu schließen. In einer zentralen Datensammelstelle, mit der jedes der Kommunikationsgeräte in Verbindung steht, werden diese Daten und gemeldeten Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen dann zunächst gesammelt. In der zentralen Datensammelstelle werden dann Meldungen über das Vorhandensein einer Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung zusammengeführt und dann, wenn eine vorbestimmte Anzahl bzw. eine Schwellwertanzahl erreicht bzw. überstiegen wird, diese Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung am zugehörigen Ort als gesichert ermittelt festgehalten. Die Analyse von Brems- und Beschleunigungsvorgängen kann aufgrund unmittelbarer Messung von Beschleunigungs- bzw. Verzögerungswerten erfolgen oder aber auch mittelbar über eine Auswertung des zeitlichen Verlaufs durchgeführter Geschwindigkeitsbestimmungen.The idea and the core idea of the invention is now, with a traceable via satellite radio communication device, as it is carried by many motor vehicle drivers today, for example in the form of a navigation device with communication functions either via wireless networks or via the Internet, or even in the form of a smartphone, mobile phones or a computer, such as a tablet PC, to record the acceleration and deceleration processes that the motor vehicle driven by the motor vehicle driver carrying the communication device carries, as well as record the speed traveled and analyze that data for the response recognize patterns that are characteristic of a speed-measuring device detected by the driver in these acceleration and / or braking operations and in the course of the speed, and to infer the presence of a speed-measuring device at the location where the maneuver took place SEN. In a central data collection point with which each of the communication devices is connected, these data and reported speed measurement devices are then first collected. Messages about the presence of a speed measuring device are then combined in the central data collecting point and, if a predetermined number or a threshold number is reached or exceeded, this speed measuring device is recorded as being reliably determined at the associated location. The analysis of braking and acceleration processes can be based on immediate measurement of acceleration or deceleration values or indirectly via an evaluation of the time course of carried out speed determinations.
Auf diese Art und Weise werden also vollautomatisiert Daten einer Vielzahl von Nutzern von entsprechend eingerichteten Kommunikationsgeräten (auf denen z.B. eine entsprechende Software installiert ist und abläuft) gesammelt, und es findet dahingehend eine statistische Bewertung statt, als dass nur solche aufgrund des oben genannten Vorgehens gemeldeten Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen als gesichert festgestellt werden, für die eine Mindestanzahl von übereinstimmenden, aus Brems- und/oder Beschleunigungsvorgängen der von den Kommunikationsgeräte nutzenden Kraftfahrzeugführern ermittelten Meldungen über eine Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung in der Datensammelstelle vorliegen. Derzeit gehen die Erfinder davon aus, dass eine übereinstimmende Meldung von 10 bis 15 unabhängigen Nutzern bzw. Kommunikationsgeräten für eine gesicherte Feststellung einer solchen Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung genügen. Diese Zahl kann aber dann, wenn weitere Verifizierungskriterien gegeben sind, variieren. Im günstigsten Fall reicht dann bereits die Meldung eines einzigen Kommunikationsgerätes für eine gesicherte Feststellung aus.In this way, fully automated data of a plurality of users of appropriately equipped communication devices (on which, for example, a corresponding software is installed and running) are collected, and there is a statistical evaluation instead, that only those reported due to the above procedure Velocity measuring devices are found to be secure, for which there are a minimum number of matching, determined from braking and / or acceleration operations of the motor vehicle drivers using the communication devices messages via a speed measuring device in the data collection point. Currently, the inventors believe that a consistent message from 10 to 15 independent users or communication devices will suffice for a secure determination of such a speed measurement device. However, this number may vary if other verification criteria are met. In the best case, then already enough the message of a single communication device for a secure statement.
Für die Auswertung der Bewegungsdaten und Fahrmanöver wird auch auf charakteristische Muster in den Bremsvorgängen abgestellt. Denn solche Bremsvorgänge sind, wie oben bereits erläutert, von besonderer Charakteristik, wenn es um das Erkennen von Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen geht. Für das Erkennen solcher Geschwindigkeitskontrollstellen mit größerer Genauigkeit und Zuverlässigkeit wird aber auch eine Auswertung der Beschleunigungsvorgänge vorgenommen.For the evaluation of the movement data and driving maneuvers is also focused on characteristic patterns in the braking processes. Because such braking operations are, as already explained above, of particular characteristics when it comes to the detection of speed measuring devices. For the detection of such speed control points with greater accuracy and reliability but also an evaluation of the acceleration processes is made.
Grundsätzlich ist es möglich, dass die Kommunikationsgeräte die von ihnen erfassten zeitlich und örtlich aufgelösten Daten über Beschleunigungs- und Bremsvorgänge der Kraftfahrzeuge, in denen diese mitgeführt werden, allesamt an eine zentrale Auswertungsstelle übermitteln, in der die Auswertung vorgenommen wird und dann eine Meldung der erkannten Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung und der zugehörigen Positionsdaten an die zentrale Datenerfassungsstelle erfolgt. Allerdings ist ein solches Verfahren aufwändig und erfordert eine große zentrale Rechenleistung. Insofern wird bevorzugt, dass die Auswertung der örtlich und zeitlich aufgelösten Daten über Beschleunigungs- und Bremsvorgänge sowie des Geschwindigkeitsverlaufes der Kraftfahrzeuge, in denen die Kommunikationsgeräte mitgeführt werden, in den Kommunikationsgeräten selbst erfolgt und nur dann, wenn anhand dieser Daten und darin auftretender spezifischer Muster eine Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung erkannt wird, eine entsprechende Mitteilung über deren Aufstellungsort an die zentrale Datensammelstelle erfolgt. Dies reduziert die drahtlose Kommunikation zu der typischerweise zentral über Mobilfunktechnik oder Internet oder andere drahtlose Kommunikationswege angebundenen zentralen Datenerfassungsstelle.In principle, it is possible for the communication devices to transmit the temporally and spatially resolved data acquired by them via acceleration and braking processes of the motor vehicles in which they are carried, all to a central evaluation point in which the evaluation is carried out and then a message of the recognized Speed measuring device and the associated position data to the central data collection point. However, such a method is complex and requires a large central processing power. In this respect, it is preferred that the evaluation of the spatially and temporally resolved data on acceleration and braking processes and the speed profile of the motor vehicles in which the communication devices are carried in the communication devices themselves and only if based on these data and specific patterns occurring therein Speed measuring device is detected, an appropriate message about their location is done to the central data collection point. This reduces wireless communication to the central data collection point, typically centrally connected via cellular or the Internet or other wireless communication pathways.
Wie bereits erwähnt, wird für das Erkennen von Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen als neben den Beschleunigungs- und Bremsvorgängen weiterer zu berücksichtigender Parameter die vor einem Bremsvorgang gefahrene Absolutgeschwindigkeit mit einbezogen. Es können dadurch insbesondere und mit Vorteil nur Brems- und anschließende Beschleunigungsmanöver von solchen Fahrzeugen für die Auswertung nach einer in dem fraglichen Streckenabschnitt möglicherweise aufgestellten Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung berücksichtigt werden, die zuvor schneller gefahren waren als die an der Stelle, an der das Bremsmanöver auftrat, zulässige Höchstgeschwindigkeit, wobei hier zusätzlich auch ein Schwellwert für eine Mindestüberschreitung, bspw. 10% oder ein Absolutwert von z.B. 10 km/h festgelegt werden kann, unterhalb dessen Messdaten ebenfalls unberücksichtigt bleiben. Die Höchstgeschwindigkeiten an den jeweiligen Streckenabschnitten können den Kommunikationsgeräten als Datensatz bekannt sein und dort unmittelbar in die Auswertung einbezogen werden. Es können solche Werte aber auch in der zentralen Auswertungsstelle hinterlegt und erst dort mit in die Auswertung einbezogen werden.As already mentioned, the acceleration speed and braking processes of further parameters to be taken into account include the absolute speed traveled before a braking process for the detection of speed measuring devices. It can thereby be considered in particular and advantageously only braking and subsequent acceleration maneuvers of such vehicles for the evaluation of a possibly established in the section in question speedometer, which were previously driven faster than those at the point at which the braking maneuver, allowed maximum speed , In this case, in addition, a threshold for a minimum overrun, for example. 10% or an absolute value of eg 10 km / h can be set below which measured data are also disregarded. The maximum speeds at the respective sections can be known to the communication devices as a data set and included there directly in the evaluation. However, such values can also be stored in the central evaluation point and only then included in the evaluation.
Es ist weiterhin von Vorteil, wenn wie mit einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung vorgeschlagen, zusätzlich zu dem Ort, an dem die festgestellte Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung erkannt worden ist, auch der Zeitpunkt ihrer Erfassung bzw. Beobachtung, also der Zeitpunkt, zu dem die entsprechende Besonderheiten in ihrem Muster aufweisenden Brems- bzw. Beschleunigungsvorgänge und Geschwindigkeitsverläufe des Kraftfahrzeuges aufgetreten waren, mit erfasst und in der weiteren Datenverarbeitung mit berücksichtigt wird. Denn vielfach sind aufgestellte Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen von vorübergehender Natur. Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen gibt es zwar auch stationär und damit in fortwährendem Bestand. Häufig jedoch werden von den Ordnungskräften mobile Geschwindigkeitsmessanlagen aufgebaut, für einen bestimmten Zeitraum betrieben und nach Beendigung einer Messperiode wieder abgebaut. Um hier also nicht weiterhin Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen als festgestellt zu erhalten, die aufgrund eines zeitlichen Ablaufes zwischenzeitlich nicht mehr existieren, können solche Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen, zu denen über einen bestimmten, vorgegebenen Zeitraum keine weiteren entsprechenden aus Bewegungsdaten mit Beschleunigungs- und Bremsvorgängen von Kraftfahrzeugen gemeldeten Beobachtungen mehr vorliegen bzw. bei der zentralen Datensammelstelle eingegangen sind, als nicht mehr existent gelöscht werden.It is also advantageous if, as proposed with an advantageous embodiment of the invention, in addition to the place where the detected speed measuring device has been detected, and the time of their detection or observation, ie the time at which the corresponding peculiarities in their pattern having braking or acceleration processes and speed profiles of the motor vehicle were detected with and taken into account in the further data processing. Because often established speed measuring devices of temporary nature. Although speed measuring devices are also stationary and therefore in constant stock. Frequently, however, the mobile security systems are set up by the police, operated for a certain period of time and dismantled after the end of a measuring period. So as not to continue to receive speed measuring devices as established which no longer exist due to a time sequence, such speed measuring devices to which no further corresponding observations reported from movement data with acceleration and braking processes of motor vehicles can be present over a specific, predetermined period of time or can be present have been received at the central data collection point, are deleted as no longer existent.
Die Ermittlung der Bewegungsdaten, also hier der Beschleunigungs- und Bremsdaten sowie der absoluten Geschwindigkeit, bzw. der zugehörigen Vorgänge und der sich daraus ergebenden zeitlichen Muster und Abläufe können bspw. aus Positionsveränderungen des funkgeorteten Kommunikationsgerätes ermittelt werden. Gleichermaßen können aber auch alternativ oder aber auch zusätzlich Beschleunigungs- oder Geschwindigkeitssensoren Verwendung finden, die in dem Kommunikationsgerät integriert oder aber mit diesem signaltechnisch zur Ermittlung der Messwerte bzw. -signale verbunden sind, verwendet werden. So haben z.B. moderne Smartphones integrierte Beschleunigungssensoren, auf die hierfür zurückgegriffen werden kann. Die entsprechende Ausnutzung solcher Hardware kann durch eine Programmierung der für den Ablauf dieses Verfahrens erforderlichen Software erfolgen.The determination of the movement data, in this case the acceleration and braking data as well as the absolute speed, or the associated processes and the resulting temporal patterns and processes can be determined, for example, from changes in the position of the radio-located communication device. Equally, however, it is also possible to use, alternatively or additionally, acceleration or speed sensors which are integrated in the communication device or are connected to it by signal technology for the determination of the measured values or signals. Thus, e.g. modern smartphones built-in acceleration sensors, which can be used for this purpose. The appropriate utilization of such hardware can be done by programming the software required for the operation of this method.
Um die Anzahl der für eine gesicherte Annahme einer festgestellten Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung erforderlichen Meldungen zu reduzieren (ggf. sogar bereits bei einer einzigen Meldung diese als Basis für eine gesicherte Meldung verwenden zu können), kann in dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren wie in Anspruch 9 angegeben vorgegangen werden. Indem der Nutzer über das Kommunikationsgerät zu einer Bestätigung, ggf. auch zu einer Korrektur, der aufgrund der automatischen Auswertung angenommenen Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung aufgefordert wird, können, wenn eine solche Bestätigung oder Korrektur erfolgt, die dann erhaltenen Informationen als gesichert gelten bzw. ihnen kann ein höherer Stellenwert beigemessen werden, so dass es dann nur noch einer geringeren Anzahl an Kontrollmeldungen gleichen Inhaltes bedarf, um die angenommene Geschwindigkeitseinrichtung als gesichert existierend anzunehmen.In order to be able to reduce the number of messages required for a secure acceptance of a detected speed measuring device (possibly even to be able to use these as the basis for a secure message even for a single message), in the method according to the invention, as in
Wie bereits erwähnt ist ein weiterer Bestandteil der Lösung der Aufgabe in einem Verkehrsleitsystem zu sehen, wie dies in Anspruch 10 angegeben ist. Demnach hat ein solches Verkehrsleitsystem mehrere zur Funkortung und für eine Routenführung eingerichtete Kommunikationsgeräte, z.B. per GPS ortbare Navigationsgeräte, sei dies in Form von spezifischen gesondert als Navigationsgeräte gebildeten Geräten, sei dies in Form von mit entsprechender Software ausgerüsteten Smartphones, Mobiltelefonen, Tablet-PCs oder sonstigen digitalen Geräten, eine zentrale Datensammelstelle, die zum Empfang von mittels der Kommunikationsgeräte, insbesondere drahtlos übermittelten Daten eingerichtet ist sowie einen Datensender, der mit der Datensammelstelle verbunden und zum Übermitteln von Verkehrsleitdaten an die Kommunikationsgeräte eingerichtet ist. In diesem System arbeiten die Kommunikationsgeräte zur Erfassung von zeitlich und örtlich aufgelösten Daten über Beschleunigungs- und Bremsvorgänge sowie der jeweiligen Fahrgeschwindigkeit des jeweils zugeordneten Kraftfahrzeuges gemäß obigem Verfahren, und es werden aus diesen Daten entsprechend Informationen über das Vorhandensein von Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtungen ermittelt. Über den Datensender werden die so gewonnenen Informationen wieder zurück gegeben an die Nutzer der Kommunikationsgeräte, so dass diese Daten bspw. zur Anzeige gebracht werden können für Warnungen vor Geschwindigkeitsmessungen oder aber auch bei der Routenberechnung an sich Berücksichtigung finden können.As already mentioned, a further part of the solution of the problem is to be seen in a traffic control system, as indicated in

In den drei Diagrammen sind für unterschiedliche verkehrstechnische Besonderheiten Diagramme typischer Fahrverhalten von Kraftfahrzeugführern gezeigt und als Auftrag des Verlaufes der Fahrgeschwindigkeit und der Beschleunigung (jeweils auf der y-Achse repräsentiert) über der Zeit (auf der x-Achse repräsentiert) dargestellt. Dabei sind zudem Werte für die auf dem jeweiligen Streckenabschnitt geltenden Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzungen (die zulässige Höchstgeschwindigkeit) eingetragen. Die dunkelgrauen Linien mit den quadratischen Wertepunkten stellten jeweils die aktuelle Fahrgeschwindigkeit dar, die mittelgrauen Linien mit den auf der spitze stehenden Rauten repräsentieren die zulässige Höchstgeschwindigkeit und die hellgrauen Linien mit den dreieckigen Wertepunkten zeigen die Beschleunigungswerte (Beschleunigung bzw. Verzögerung).In the three diagrams, diagrams of typical driving behavior of motor vehicle drivers are shown for different traffic-specific characteristics and shown as an order of the course of the driving speed and acceleration (each represented on the y-axis) over time (represented on the x-axis). In addition, values are entered for the speed limits (the permissible maximum speed) that apply to the respective section. The dark gray lines with the square value points each represented the current driving speed, the mid-gray lines with the pointed diamonds represent the permissible maximum speed and the light gray lines with the triangular value points show the acceleration values (acceleration or deceleration).
Gut zu erkennen sind die für die hier ausgewählten Fälle einer Baustelle (

Diese deutlich unterschiedlichen Muster lassen erkennen, dass bei einer Auswertung von Beschleunigungs- und Bremsvorgängen sowie der Fahrgeschwindigkeit in der oben beschriebenen Weise der für eine Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung typische Verlauf sicher erkannt und von den anderen möglichen Verläufen unterschieden werden kann, so dass automatisiert auf das Vorhandensein einer solchen Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung rückgeschlossen werden kann.These distinctly different patterns indicate that, in an evaluation of acceleration and braking processes as well as the driving speed in the manner described above, the course typical for a speed measuring device can be reliably recognized and distinguished from the other possible courses, thus automating the existence of such Speed measuring device can be deduced.
