Mittels dem anmeldungsgemäßen Verfahren ist es möglich, die ermittelten Positionen abzusichern und nur dann zur Ermittlung der Navigationsposition zu verwenden, wenn die ermittelten Positionen entsprechend validiert sind. Probability also corresponds to the actual position of the navigation device. A highly accurate position is a position with an accuracy of at most 3 m, in particular less than 1 m, for example, an accuracy of 30 cm or less. In conventional receivers for global navigation satellite systems, it is possible to determine such highly accurate positions. These positions are not secured and not reliable enough to be used for a motor vehicle. By means of the method according to the application, it is possible to secure the determined positions and to use them to determine the navigation position only if the determined positions have been validated accordingly.
Zusätzlich ist es möglich, eine Information weiterzugeben, dass eine ermittelte Position zumindest momentan nicht verlässlich ist, wenn eine entsprechende Validierung nicht möglich ist. In addition, it is possible to pass on information that a determined position is at least currently not reliable if a corresponding validation is not possible.
Die Kombination unterschiedlicher Überwachungsmechanismen zur Validierung der ermittelten Position ermöglicht eine hohe Zuverlässigkeit bei der Ermittlung der Navigationsposition. Die unterschiedlichen Ebenen des Beitrags zur Bestimmung der hochgenauen Navigationsposition werden unterschiedlichen Überwachungsmethoden zugeordnet. Somit ist eine ausreichend gute Systemsicherheit gegeben, sodass die hochgenauen Navigati¬ onspositionen verlässlich weiterverwendet werden können. Somit ist es beispielsweise auch möglich, zusätzlich zu herkömmlichen Navigationsanwendungen die Navigationsposition für ein automatisiertes Fahren zu verwenden. Beispielsweise ist mittels der hochgenauen Navigationsposition eine Spurbestimmung für das Kraftfahrzeug möglich. Mittels des anmeldungsgemäßen Verfahrens ist es möglich, die Verlässlichkeit der ermittelten Positionen zu überprüfen und festzustellen, ob die ermittelten Positionen nutzbar sind oder nicht. Die hochgenaue Navigationsposition ist insbesondere auch bei schlechtem Empfang von den Satelliten, beispielsweise bei Bebauung oder durch Bäume oder andere Störungen, die beispielsweise durch die Ionosphäre verursacht werden, mit einer ausreichend hohen Genauigkeit möglich. The combination of different monitoring mechanisms for the validation of the determined position allows a high reliability in the determination of the navigation position. The different levels of contribution to determining the high-accuracy navigation position will be different Associated with monitoring methods. Thus, a sufficiently good system security is given, so that the highly accurate navigation ¬ onspositionen can be reliably used. Thus, for example, it is also possible to use the navigation position for automated driving in addition to conventional navigation applications. For example, a track determination for the motor vehicle is possible by means of the highly accurate navigation position. By means of the method according to the application, it is possible to check the reliability of the determined positions and to determine whether the determined positions can be used or not. The high-precision navigation position is possible in particular even with poor reception from the satellites, for example in the case of buildings or trees or other disturbances caused, for example, by the ionosphere, with sufficiently high accuracy.
Eine Methode zur Überwachung beinhaltet das Ermitteln der Position des Navigationssystems in Abhängigkeit der ver¬ schiedenen zur Verfügung stehenden globalen Navigationssatellitensystemen. Mittels jedem Navigationssatellitensystem wird eine individuelle Position ermittelt. Alle möglichen Paarungen werden gegenübergestellt und die jeweiligen Abwei- chungen in den ermittelten Positionen ermittelt. SämtlicheA method of monitoring includes determining the position of the navigation system, depending on the ver ¬ different available global navigation satellite systems. An individual position is determined by means of each navigation satellite system. All possible pairings are compared and the respective deviations in the determined positions are determined. All
Abweichungen werden nun dahingehend überprüft, ob der vorge¬ gebene Schwellwert für die Abweichung unterschritten wird. Ist dies der Fall, funktionieren alle verwendeten Navigationssa¬ tellitensysteme normal und die jeweiligen ermittelten Positionen werden zur Ermittlung der Navigationsposition verwendet. Deviations are now checked as to whether one of the ¬ passed threshold value is exceeded for the deviation. If this is the case, all Navigationssa ¬ tellitensysteme used function normally and the respective determined positions are used to determine the navigation position.
Eine weitere Methode ist die Überprüfung der Plausibilität der Bewegung mittels der inertialen Messeinheit. Mittels der intertialen Messeinheit wird ein Erwartungsfenster für die nächste zu ermittelnde Position ermittelt. Das Erwartungsfenster ist insbesondere um die inertiale Position vorgegeben. Bei¬ spielsweise wird das Erwartungsfenster mittels bereits bekannten Verfahren der Koppelnavigation ermittelt, die hier aber nicht zum Einsatz kommt, um bei Ausfall der Satellitennavigation eine Position zu berechnen, sondern um im Vorhinein einen Bereich zu bestimmen, in dem die nächste ermittelte Position liegen sollte. Liegt die ermittelte Position in dem Erwartungsfenster, wird die ermittelte Position validiert und für die Ermittlung der Na¬ vigationsposition verwendet. Another method is to check the plausibility of the movement by means of the inertial measuring unit. By means of the intertial measuring unit, an expectation window is determined for the next position to be determined. The expectation window is specified in particular around the inertial position. In ¬ example, the expectation window by means of already known However, this method is not used here to calculate a position in the event of satellite navigation failure, but to determine in advance an area in which the next determined position should lie. If the determined position in the expectation window, the determined position is validated and used for the determination of Na ¬ vigationsposition.
Eine weitere Methode ist die Verwendung von Korrekturdaten. Die Korrekturdaten werden von einem Korrekturdienst empfangen. Der Korrekturdienst liefert Informationen über den Status jedes einzelnen Satelliten der Navigationssatellitensysteme. Ins¬ besondere umfasst dies Korrekturen für die in den Satelliten befindlichen Uhren und/oder Korrekturen für die Bahndaten der jeweiligen Satelliten. Insbesondere werden mehrere Korrekturdienste genutzt, um sowohl die Verlässlichkeit der Kor¬ rekturdaten zu erhöhen als auch jeweils die Korrekturdaten eines anderen Korrekturdienstes zu validieren. Eine weitere Methode ist der Abgleich mittels einer zertifi¬ zierten Position. Die zertifizierten Positionsdaten werden beispielsweise mit Hilfe des PRS-Bandes des Gali¬ leo-Navigationssatellitensystems mittels eines Datenanbieters zur Verfügung gestellt. Die zertifizierten Positionsdaten weisen eine höhere Genauigkeit auf als die normalen Positionsdaten. Beispielsweise wird die zertifizierte Position zu bestimmten Betriebszuständen ermittelt, beispielsweise beim Starten des Systems und nachfolgend zu veränderlichen Zeitpunkten, um die durch die öffentlichen Dienste sichergestellte zertifizierte Position als absolut genaue Referenz nutzen zu können. Beispielsweise ist es dadurch möglich, übliche Sensordriften auszugleichen. Zudem können Navigationssatellitensystememp- fänger mit einer Standardgenauigkeit zyklisch unabhängig jeweils einzeln überprüft werden. Diese Prüfung wird beispielsweise in Intervallen von mehreren Minuten Abstand durchgeführt. Somit ist es möglich, sicherzustellen, dass die ermittelte Position innerhalb einer vorgegebenen Abweichung von der zertifizierten Position liegt. Another method is the use of correction data. The correction data is received by a correction service. The correction service provides information about the status of each satellite of the navigation satellite systems. Ins ¬ particular this includes fixes for the present in the satellite clock and / or corrections to the trajectory data of the respective satellites. In particular, several correction services are used, both to increase the reliability of the Cor ¬ rekturdaten and each to validate the correction data of another correction service. Another method is the adjustment by means of a certifi ¬ ed position. The certified position data are made available, for example, with the aid of the PRS band of the Galileo navigation satellite system by means of a data provider. The certified position data has a higher accuracy than the normal position data. For example, the certified position is determined at specific operating conditions, for example when the system is started up and subsequently at variable times, in order to be able to use the certified position ensured by the public services as an absolutely exact reference. For example, this makes it possible to compensate for customary sensor drives. In addition, navigation satellite system receivers with a standard accuracy can be individually checked cyclically independently. This test is performed, for example, at intervals of several minutes distance. Thus, it is possible to ensure that the determined position within a given deviation from the certified position.
Gemäß weiteren Ausführungsformen wird bei der Überprüfung der Integrität der einzelnen Navigationssatellitensysteme ermit¬ telt, ob stets eines der Navigationssatellitensysteme beteiligt ist, wenn eine Abweichung von jeweils zwei Positionen größer als der vorgegebene Schwellwert für die Abweichung ist. Ist dies der Fall, kann davon ausgegangen werden, dass dieses eine Navi- gationssatellitensystem fehlerhaft ist. Folglich werden die Positionsdaten dieses Navigationssatellitensystems nicht zur Ermittlung der Navigationsposition verwendet. Alternativ oder zusätzlich wird eine ermittelte Navigationsposition According to further embodiments, it will ermit ¬ telt in verifying the integrity of each navigation satellite systems always whether a navigation satellite systems is involved, when a deviation of each of two positions is greater than the predetermined threshold value for the deviation. If this is the case, it can be assumed that this one navigation satellite system is faulty. Consequently, the position data of this navigation satellite system is not used for determining the navigation position. Alternatively or additionally, a determined navigation position
invalidiert, wenn die Navigationsposition in Abhängigkeit von den Positionsdaten ermittelt wurde, die von dem fehlerhaften Navigationssatellitensystem empfangen wurden. invalidated when the navigation position has been determined in accordance with the position data received from the failed navigation satellite system.
Alternativ oder zusätzlich ist es möglich, die ermittelte Navigationsposition zu invalidieren, wenn die mittels der inertialen Position ermittelte zweite Abweichung größer als der Schwellwert für die zweite Abweichung ist. Alternativ oder zusätzlich wird die Navigationsposition ohne die Positionsdaten des Navigationssatellitensystems ermittelt, deren Positions¬ daten zu der ermittelten Position geführt haben, die außerhalb des Erwartungsfensters um die inertiale Position liegt. Alternatively or additionally, it is possible to invalidate the determined navigation position if the second deviation determined by means of the inertial position is greater than the threshold value for the second deviation. Alternatively or additionally, the navigation position is determined without the position data of the navigation satellite system whose position data ¬ have led to the determined position, which lies outside the expected window to the inertial position.
Bei der Verwendung von mehreren inertialen Messeinheiten wird für jede mögliche Kombination das Erwartungsfenster bestimmt. Somit ist die Zuverlässigkeit noch weiter erhöhbar. When using several inertial measurement units, the expectation window is determined for each possible combination. Thus, the reliability can be further increased.

Das Navigationssystem 100 weist eine hochgenaue inertiale Messeinheit 105 mit sechs Freiheitsgraden auf. Es können weitere inertiale Messeinheiten 106 vorgesehen sein, die auch in herkömmlichen Kraftfahrzeugen Verwendung finden. Beispielsweise werden auch Informationen einer Informationseinheit 118 zur Ermittlung der Navigationsposition verwendet, die beispiels- weise Informationen über die Geschwindigkeit des Kraftfahrzeugs und/oder andere Informationen umfassen, die zur Ermittlung und Plausibilisierung der Navigationsposition verwendet werden können . Ein Telematiksteuergerät 104 ist vorgesehen, das Daten vonThe navigation system 100 has a high-precision inertial measurement unit 105 with six degrees of freedom. There may be provided further inertial measuring units 106, which are also used in conventional motor vehicles. For example, information of an information unit 118 for determining the navigation position is also used, which includes, for example, information about the speed of the motor vehicle and / or other information that can be used to ascertain and check the plausibility of the navigation position. A telematics control unit 104 is provided, the data from
Datenanbietern 101 und 107 empfangen kann. Der Datenanbieter 101 liefert beispielsweise zertifizierte Positionsdaten. Der Da- tenanbieter 107 stellt beispielsweise Korrekturdaten zu den jeweiligen Navigationssatellitensystemen zur Verfügung. Data providers 101 and 107 can receive. The data provider 101 supplies, for example, certified position data. That one- For example, provider 107 provides correction data for the respective navigation satellite systems.
Das Navigationssystem 100 weist eine Vorrichtung 200 mit einem Prozessor 103 auf. Die Vorrichtung 100 ist eingerichtet, Daten der verschiedenen Elemente des Navigationssystems und weitere Eingangsgrößen zu verarbeiten und die Navigationsposition zu ermitteln. Die Vorrichtung 200 weist unterschiedliche Hardware und Software Module auf. Unterschiedliche Funktionen des an- meldungsgemäßen Navigationssystems können in Hardware und/oder Software der Vorrichtung 200 realisiert sein. Beispielsweise ist eine Empfangseinheit 112 als Software in der Vorrichtung 200 realisiert, die die Korrekturdaten und zertifizierten Positionsdaten der Datenanbieter 101 und 107 weiter verarbeitet. The navigation system 100 has a device 200 with a processor 103. The device 100 is set up to process data of the various elements of the navigation system and other input variables and to determine the navigation position. The device 200 has different hardware and software modules. Different functions of the navigation system according to the application can be implemented in hardware and / or software of the device 200. For example, a receiving unit 112 is realized as software in the device 200, which further processes the correction data and certified position data of the data providers 101 and 107.
Das Navigationssystem weist eine weitere Empfangseinheit 113 auf, die ebenfalls zertifizierte Positionsdaten direkt von dem Navigationssatellitensystem, insbesondere von Galileo, empfangen und weiterverarbeiten kann. The navigation system has a further receiving unit 113, which can also receive and process further certified position data directly from the navigation satellite system, in particular from Galileo.
Nachfolgend wird der Betrieb des Navigationssystems 100 in Verbindung mit dem Flussdiagramm der Figur 2 erläutert. Hereinafter, the operation of the navigation system 100 will be explained in conjunction with the flowchart of FIG.
In Schritt 201 werden von den zur Verfügung stehenden Navi- gationssatellitensystemen jeweils Positionsdaten empfangen.In step 201, position data are respectively received by the available navigation satellite systems.
Insbesondere werden mittels des Empfängers 108 bis 111 hochgenaue Positionsdaten empfangen. In particular, 108 to 111 highly accurate position data are received by the receiver.
In einem Schritt 202 ermittelt die Vorrichtung 200 mittels der empfangenen Positionsdaten eine jeweilige Position. Somit ist mittels jedem zur Verfügung stehenden Navigationssatellitensystem eine individuelle Position für das Navigationssystem ermittelt . In Schritt 203 werden jeweils alle möglichen Paarungen der ermittelten Positionen gegenübergestellt und die jeweiligen Abweichungen innerhalb der Paarungen bestimmt. Wird dabei ermittelt, dass die Position, die mittels Positionsdaten eines bestimmten Navigationssatellitensystems stets mehr als ein vorgegebener Schwellwert von den anderen Positionen abweicht, wird von einem Fehler bei der Positionsbestimmung mittels diesem bestimmten Navigationssatellitensystem ausgegangen. In a step 202, the device 200 determines a respective position by means of the received position data. Thus, an individual position for the navigation system is determined by means of each available navigation satellite system. In step 203, all possible pairings of the determined positions are compared and the respective deviations within the pairings are determined. Will be there determines that the position, which always deviates more than a predetermined threshold from the other positions by means of position data of a particular navigation satellite system, is based on an error in the position determination by means of this particular navigation satellite system.
Die Vorrichtung 200 ermittelt dann in Schritt 204 die Navi¬ gationsposition in Abhängigkeit der übrigen ermittelten Positionen und unabhängig von der ermittelten Position des be- stimmten Navigationssatellitensystems. Beispielsweise wird ein Mittelwert der ermittelten Positionen bestimmt und als Navigationsposition zur weiteren Verwendung ermittelt. The device 200 then determines in step 204, the navigation ¬ gationsposition in function of the other determined positions and independently of the determined position of the certain navigation satellite system. For example, an average of the determined positions is determined and determined as a navigation position for further use.
In Schritt 205 wird ermittelt, ob bereits eine Navigations- position in Abhängigkeit einer ermittelten Position des bestimmten Navigationssatellitensystems verwendet wurde. Ist dies der Fall, wird diese Navigationsposition invalidiert. Somit ermittelt die Vorrichtung 200 eine hochgenaue Navigationspo¬ sition mit der zusätzlichen Information, ob diese hochgenaue Navigationsposition verlässlich genug ist, um weiter verwendet zu werden. In step 205, it is determined whether a navigation position has already been used as a function of a determined position of the particular navigation satellite system. If this is the case, this navigation position is invalidated. Thus, the device 200 determines a highly accurate Navigationspo ¬ sition with the additional information, whether these highly accurate navigation position is reliable enough to be used.
Zusätzlich werden die in Schritt 202 ermittelten Positionen in einem Schritt 206 mit den Werten der inertialen Messeinheit 105 und gegebenenfalls zusätzlich der zweiten inertialen Messeinheiten 106 plausibilisiert . Weichen ermittelte Positionen mehr als ein vorgegebener Schwellwert von den inertialen Positionen ab, die mittels der inertialen Messeinheit 105 ermittelt wurde, werden diese ermittelten Positionen nicht zur Ermittlung der Navigationsposition weiter verwendet. Alternativ oder zusätzlich wird geprüft, ob bereits eine Navigationsposition in Abhängigkeit dieser ermittelten Position ermittelt wurde. Ist dies der Fall, wird diese Navigationsposition invalidiert. Somit ist es möglich, die von der Vorrichtung 200 ermittelte Navi- gationsposition auch mittels eines von Satelliten unabhängigen Systems zu plausibilisieren und zu validieren. Weiterhin werden in einem Schritt 207 Korrekturdaten einer Mehrzahl von zueinander verschiedenen Korrekturdiensten 107 empfangen und in die Berechnung der Navigationsposition beziehungsweise der einzelnen ermittelten Positionen der Navi- gationssatellitensysteme miteinbezogen. Somit ist es möglich, einen genauere Navigationsposition und auch eine verlässlichere Navigationsposition zu ermitteln. Zudem ist es möglich, die einzelnen Datensätze der Korrekturdaten der unterschiedlichen Korrekturdienste gegeneinander zu validieren. Für den Fall, dass keine Gültigkeit eines resultierenden Datensatzes bestimmt werden kann, wird eine Navigationsposition, die unter Nutzung dieses nicht final zu überprüfenden Datensatzes ermittelt wurde, invalidiert . In einem weiteren Schritt 208 werden die zertifizierten Positionsdaten des PRS Bandes (E5) des Galileo Navigationssa¬ tellitensystems verwendet. Insbesondere werden die Daten direkt mittels der weiteren Empfangseinheit 113 verwendet und über einen oder mehreren der Datenanbieter 101. Die Überprüfung der er- mittelten Navigationsposition mit der zertifizierten Position erfolgt insbesondere nicht für jede ermittelte Navigations¬ position, sondern in regelmäßigen oder unregelmäßigen Abständen von beispielsweise mehreren Minuten. Insbesondere beim Start wird somit eine verlässliche Referenzposition ermittelt, für die sichergestellt ist, dass sie innerhalb eines vorgegebenen Rahmens und die tatsächliche Position liegt. In addition, the positions determined in step 202 are plausibilized in a step 206 with the values of the inertial measurement unit 105 and possibly additionally the second inertial measurement units 106. If detected positions deviate more than a predefined threshold value from the inertial positions determined by means of the inertial measurement unit 105, these determined positions are not used to determine the navigation position. Alternatively or additionally, it is checked whether a navigation position has already been determined as a function of this determined position. If this is the case, this navigation position is invalidated. Thus, it is possible to plausibilize and validate the navigation position determined by the device 200 also by means of a satellite-independent system. Furthermore, correction data of a plurality of mutually different correction services 107 are received in a step 207 and included in the calculation of the navigation position or the individual determined positions of the navigation satellite systems. Thus, it is possible to determine a more accurate navigation position and also a more reliable navigation position. In addition, it is possible to validate the individual data sets of the correction data of the different correction services against each other. In the event that no validity of a resulting record can be determined, a navigation position, which was determined using this non-final record to be checked invalidated. In a further step 208, the certified positional data of the PRS belt (E5) of the Galileo Navigationssa ¬ tellitensystems be used. In particular, the data are used directly by means of the further receiver unit 113 and via one or more of the data provider 101. The verification of the ER mediated reckoning position with the certified position is in particular not for each identified navigation ¬ position, but in regular or irregular intervals of, say, several minutes. In particular, at startup, a reliable reference position is thus determined, which is ensured that it lies within a predetermined frame and the actual position.
In einem Schritt 209 wird aus allen Größen, die mittels der Schritte 201 bis 208 ermittelt wurden, die hochgenaue und verlässliche Navigationsposition ermittelt, die dann an weitere Systeme des Kraftfahrzeugs weitergeben wird, beispielsweise zum Berechnen einer Route oder zum Steuern eines automatisierten Fahrens . Die Vorrichtung 200 ist somit eingerichtet, die Navigations¬ position mit einer Genauigkeit von weniger als 1 m um die tatsächliche Position herum zu ermitteln. Hierfür wird die hochgenaue intertiale Messeinheit 105 sowie die hochgenauen Navigationssatellitensysteme und die Korrekturdienste ver¬ wendet . Zudem ist die Vorrichtung 200 eingerichtet, die Integrität der ermittelten Navigationsposition zu überprüfen. Hierfür werden beispielsweise Informationen aus dem elektronischen Stabilitätsprogramm und der weiteren inertialen Messeinheiten 106 verwendet, um einen Erwartungskorridor für die mittels der Satellitendaten ermittelte Position zu ermitteln. Weiterhin werden Positionen mittels zueinander verschiedener Navigationssatellitensysteme unabhängig voneinander ermittelt, sodass Fehler bei einzelnen Navigationssatellitensystemen auffallen und gegebenenfalls ausgeblendet werden können. In a step 209, the highly accurate and reliable navigation position is determined from all variables determined by means of the steps 201 to 208, which will then be passed on to other systems of the motor vehicle, for example for calculating a route or for controlling an automated driving. The apparatus 200 is thus arranged to detect the navigation ¬ position with an accuracy of less than 1 m to the actual position around. For this purpose, the high-precision intertial measurement unit 105 and the highly accurate navigation satellite systems and the correction services ver ¬ applies. In addition, the device 200 is set up to check the integrity of the determined navigation position. For this purpose, for example, information from the electronic stability program and the further inertial measurement units 106 are used to determine an expected corridor for the position determined by means of the satellite data. Furthermore, positions are determined independently of each other by means of mutually different navigation satellite systems, so that errors in individual navigation satellite systems can be noticed and possibly hidden.
Weiterhin ist die Vorrichtung 200 eingerichtet die ermittelte Navigationsposition mit zertifizierten Positionen abzugleichen und somit absolute Referenzen zu ermitteln. Insgesamt wird somit die Ermittlung einer hochgenauen Navigationsposition bei einer ausreichend hohen Überwachung realisiert, dass die ermittelte Navigationsposition innerhalb einer vorgegebenen Abweichung von beispielsweise weniger als 1 m um die tatsächliche Position liegt. Furthermore, the device 200 is set up to match the determined navigation position with certified positions and thus to determine absolute references. Overall, therefore, the determination of a highly accurate navigation position is realized with sufficiently high surveillance that the determined navigation position is within a predetermined deviation of, for example, less than 1 m from the actual position.
