  The present invention comprises receiving means for receiving traveling information including the position of a vehicle traveling on a road including an intersection and the passing time of the position, and transmitting means for transmitting information based on the received traveling information to an external device. The present invention relates to an information communication device.

  The purpose of traffic signal control is to maintain smooth traffic for vehicles and pedestrians while maintaining smooth traffic by suppressing or mitigating traffic congestion. Various traffic signal control methods have been devised and realized. Has been. In these traffic signal control systems, signal control parameters (cycle length, split, offset, etc.) corresponding to the traffic conditions on the road are determined and the lamp color of the signal lamp is switched.

  For this reason, for example, a vehicle having a communication function for wireless communication between an in-vehicle device mounted on a vehicle and a traffic signal controller, and a vehicle entering the communication area of the traffic signal controller has its own position information, speed information, etc. The so-called probe information is transmitted to the traffic signal controller in real time. And the traffic signal controller can receive the transmitted probe information, and can determine a signal control parameter using the received probe information (refer patent document 1).

JP 2009-15817 A

  However, in the traffic signal control system of Patent Document 1, when probe information is transmitted from all the vehicles that have entered the communication area of the traffic signal controller, vehicle probes that are unnecessary for determining the signal control parameters are used. Information may also be included. This is the same when the probe information from the vehicle is received not by the traffic signal controller but by the road communicator. In addition, when the probe information of all the vehicles received by the traffic signal controller or the road communication device is transmitted to another device (for example, the road device or the central device), the amount of data to be communicated increases, and the communication line However, there is a possibility that the traffic signal control cannot be performed in a timely manner due to the tight communication.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide an information communication apparatus capable of reducing the tightness of communication lines.

  An information communication apparatus according to a first aspect of the present invention is a receiving means for receiving travel information including a position of a vehicle traveling on a road including an intersection and a passing time of the position, and transmits information based on the received travel information to an external apparatus. An information communication device comprising: a transmitting means for performing the following: an index calculating means for calculating a traffic index serving as a traffic congestion index on the road based on the travel information received by the receiving means; and a traffic calculated by the index calculating means Determination means for determining the presence or absence of traffic congestion on the road based on the index, and when the determination means determines that there is traffic congestion, trajectory information for identifying the vehicle travel trajectory from the travel information is transmitted from the transmission means. Transmission control means is provided for controlling the transmission so that the traffic index calculated by the index calculation means is transmitted from the transmission means when it is determined that there is no traffic jam.

  In the information communication apparatus according to a second aspect based on the first aspect, the index calculation means calculates an average speed of the vehicle as the traffic index, and the determination means determines that the average speed is a predetermined threshold speed. If it is smaller, it is determined that there is a traffic jam.

  An information communication apparatus according to a third aspect of the present invention comprises the acquisition means for acquiring the traffic flow rate of the road in the first or second invention, wherein the determination means has a predetermined traffic flow rate acquired by the acquisition means. If it is larger than the threshold, it is determined that there is a traffic jam.

  The information communication device according to a fourth aspect of the present invention is the information communication device according to any one of the first to third aspects, wherein the index calculation means calculates a travel time between two points upstream and downstream of the intersection as the traffic index. The determination means determines that there is traffic when the travel time is longer than a predetermined threshold time.

  The information communication device according to a fifth aspect of the present invention is the information communication apparatus according to the fourth aspect, wherein the signal information acquisition means for acquiring the signal information of the signal lamp provided at the intersection, and the signal information acquired by the signal information acquisition means, And setting means for setting a threshold time.

  The information communication device according to a sixth aspect of the present invention is the information communication device according to any one of the first to fifth aspects, wherein the transmission control unit determines from the time when the determination unit determines that there is traffic to the time when there is no traffic. During this period, the trajectory information is controlled to be transmitted.

  In any one of the first to sixth inventions, the information communication device according to a seventh invention stops transmission of the trajectory information when the transmission control means determines that there is no traffic jam in the determination means. It is characterized by being controlled as much as possible.

  In the first invention, the index calculating means calculates a traffic index serving as a traffic congestion index based on the received travel information. The traveling information is so-called probe information (uplink information). The traffic index is, for example, the average speed of the vehicle, the travel time between two predetermined points on the road, and the like. The determination means determines whether there is a traffic jam on the road based on the calculated traffic index. When it is determined that there is a traffic jam, the transmission control means should transmit trajectory information for specifying the trajectory of the vehicle among the travel information to an external device (for example, a signal controller, a central device, a road device, etc.). Control. The trajectory information is information that includes information such as the vehicle ID, the position of the vehicle, the time at the position, the direction of the vehicle, the speed, and the like in the travel information, and can identify the trajectory that the vehicle has traveled. . In addition, when it is determined that there is no traffic jam, the transmission control unit controls to transmit the calculated traffic index to an external device.

  With the above-described configuration, when there is no traffic jam, information less than the received travel information is transmitted to an external device by transmitting a traffic index. In addition, when there is a traffic jam, the vehicle trajectory information necessary to identify the cause of the traffic jam is transmitted, so compared with the case where all the received travel information is transmitted as it is, an external device It is possible to reduce the tightness of the communication line. In addition, since necessary trajectory information is transmitted when a traffic jam occurs, it is possible to provide information for identifying the cause of the traffic jam while reducing the tightness of the communication line. In this way, by filtering the travel information using the traffic jam situation, it is possible to transmit only the necessary travel information while avoiding the transmission of unnecessary travel information, thereby reducing the tightness of the communication line. it can. In addition, since unnecessary travel information does not need to be received and processed, unnecessary processing in an external device can be reduced, and originally necessary processing speed can be improved.

  In the second invention, the index calculating means calculates the average speed of the vehicle as the traffic index. The determination means determines that there is traffic when the average speed is smaller than a predetermined threshold speed. Thereby, the presence or absence of traffic jam can be determined based on the received travel information.

  In the third invention, the determination means determines that there is a traffic jam if the traffic flow rate acquired by the acquisition means is greater than a predetermined threshold. Thereby, the presence or absence of traffic congestion can be determined with higher accuracy.

  In the fourth invention, the index calculating means calculates a travel time between two points on the upstream side and the downstream side of the intersection as a traffic index. In addition, the area | region of a required range is also contained in a point. The determination means determines that there is a traffic jam when the travel time is longer than a predetermined threshold time. Thereby, the presence or absence of traffic jam can be determined based on the received travel information. In addition, when traffic jams occur (for example, near-saturation, over-saturation, etc.), the trajectory information of vehicles passing through points upstream of the road calculates travel time (link travel time) at points downstream of the road. It is important to do. On the other hand, when there is no traffic jam (for example, a state of quiet, free flow, etc.), the trajectory information of the vehicle is not so important. When traffic jams occur, it is possible to reduce the tightness of the communication line by transmitting the trajectory information.

  In the fifth invention, the signal information acquisition means acquires the signal information of the signal lamp provided at the intersection. The setting means sets a threshold time based on the acquired signal information. For example, when a vehicle passing through a point on the upstream side of a road passes through an intersection and passes a point on the downstream side of the road, the signal light at the intersection turns red while the vehicle passes between two points. In some cases, the vehicle has to stop during travel time. For this reason, an accurate travel time can be calculated by setting the threshold time according to the signal information so as to offset the stop time of the vehicle.

  In the sixth invention, the transmission control means controls to transmit the trajectory information from the time when the determination means determines that there is traffic jam to the time when it is determined that there is no traffic jam. For example, the trajectory information necessary for specifying the cause of the traffic jam is transmitted from the time when the traffic jam occurs. Then, the traffic jam mitigation process is performed based on the transmitted trajectory information, and the transmission of the trajectory information is stopped when the traffic jam is resolved. Therefore, it is possible to optimize the timing for transmitting the trajectory information. In addition, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the trajectory information is continuously transmitted even after a traffic jam occurs and the traffic jam is resolved, and it is possible to reduce the tightness of the communication line.

  In the seventh invention, the transmission control means controls to stop the transmission of the trajectory information when the determination means determines that there is no traffic jam. As a result, unnecessary trajectory information is not transmitted, and the tightness of the communication line can be reduced.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to avoid unnecessary transmission information and transmit only necessary traveling information by filtering the traveling information by utilizing the traffic jam condition, thereby reducing the tightness of the communication line. be able to.

  Hereinafter, an information communication apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the information communication system of the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the information communication system includes a road communication device 100 as an information communication device, a road device 1 as an external device, a traffic signal controller 2, a central device 4, and the like. The information communication system can also include an information relay device 3. The roadside communication device 100 can transmit and receive information to and from the vehicle 200 in a required communicable area on a road including an intersection, for example.

  The vehicle 200 is equipped with an in-vehicle device (not shown). The vehicle 200 accumulates information such as its position (position coordinate information) and the time at the position every predetermined cycle (for example, 0.1 second to 1 second). The plurality of vehicles 200 transmit the accumulated information to the on-road communication device 100 as travel information every predetermined time (for example, 0.1 second to 1 second).

  The roadside communication device 100 is, for example, a roadside communication device (base station) having a wireless communication function for ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems) that uses a frequency band of the UHF band. Can send and receive information to and from. That is, the roadside communication device 100 acquires travel information including position information of the vehicle from the vehicle 200 existing in the communicable region. The traveling information is also referred to as so-called probe information (uplink information) or floating car data. The travel information may include vehicle ID, position coordinate information, time, speed, direction, vehicle operation information (for example, operation information on brakes, accelerators, blinkers, wipers, etc.).

  When the road communicator 100 acquires the travel information from each vehicle 200, the road communicator 100 does not transmit all the acquired travel information to an external device (the road device 1, the traffic signal controller 2, or the central device 4). Send only information needed by external devices at the required time. As a result, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the communication line between the central device 4, the information relay device 3, the roadside communication device 100, the roadside device 1, and the traffic signal controller 2 is tight with a large amount of data. Details will be described below.

  FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the roadside communication device 100 of the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2, the roadside communication device 100 includes a control unit 10, a communication unit 11, a storage unit 12, an index calculation unit 13, a traffic jam determination unit 14, and the like.

  The communication unit 11 has a function as a receiving unit and receives travel information from the vehicle 200. In addition, the communication unit 11 transmits information based on the received travel information (information required by each external device at a required time) to the external device (the road device 1, the traffic signal controller 2, or the central device 4). It has a function as a transmission means for transmitting. Here, the information transmitted by the roadside communication device 100 will be described later.

  The communication unit 11 has a function as signal information acquisition means, and acquires signal information of a signal lamp provided at an intersection from the traffic signal controller 2 or the central device 4.

  The memory | storage part 12 memorize | stores the driving information of each vehicle 200 received through the communication part 11, the signal information of a signal lamp, etc.

  The index calculation unit 13 has a function as an index calculation unit, and calculates a traffic index that is an index of traffic congestion on the basis of the received travel information. The traffic index is, for example, the average speed of the vehicle, the travel time between two predetermined points on the road, and the like. The average speed of the vehicle may be an average speed within a predetermined range when one vehicle travels within a predetermined range of the road, or may be an average value of the speeds of a plurality of vehicles. The average speed includes not only an average value of individual speeds but also a statistical value such as a median value or a mode value of individual speeds. The travel time may be a travel time of one vehicle, or may be a statistical value such as an average value, a median value, or a mode value of individual travel times of a plurality of vehicles.

  The congestion determination unit 14 has a function as a determination unit, and determines the presence or absence of road congestion based on the traffic index calculated by the index calculation unit 13.

  The control unit 10 has a function as a transmission control unit, and when the congestion determination unit 14 determines that there is a traffic jam, the control unit 10 transmits to the central device 4 trajectory information for specifying the travel trajectory of the vehicle among the travel information. Control as much as possible. The trajectory information is information that includes information such as the vehicle ID, the position of the vehicle, the time at the position, the direction of the vehicle, the speed, and the like in the travel information, and can identify the trajectory that the vehicle has traveled. . In this case, the central device 4 diagnoses (determines) the cause of the traffic jam based on the trajectory information transmitted by the roadside communication device 100.

  In addition, when the traffic determination unit 14 determines that there is no traffic jam, the control unit 10 controls the traffic index calculated by the index calculation unit 13 to be transmitted to the central device 4.

  With the above-described configuration, when there is no traffic jam, information less than the received travel information is transmitted to an external device by transmitting a traffic index. In addition, when there is a traffic jam, the vehicle trajectory information necessary to identify the cause of the traffic jam is transmitted, so compared with the case where all the received travel information is transmitted as it is, an external device It is possible to reduce the tightness of the communication line. In addition, since necessary trajectory information is transmitted when a traffic jam occurs, it is possible to provide information for identifying the cause of the traffic jam while reducing the tightness of the communication line. In this way, by filtering the travel information using the traffic jam situation, it is possible to transmit only the necessary travel information while avoiding the transmission of unnecessary travel information, thereby reducing the tightness of the communication line. it can. In addition, since unnecessary travel information does not need to be received and processed, unnecessary processing in an external device can be reduced, and originally necessary processing speed can be improved.

  Next, a transmission information transmission control method according to changes in traffic conditions will be described. First, a case where traffic volume such as average speed changes as a traffic index will be described.

  FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a determination region for determining a change in traffic volume. As shown in FIG. 3, the main road and the secondary road intersect at an intersection 5. A road communicator 100 is installed near the intersection 5. Of the inflow path to the intersection 5 of the main road, the range from the stop line position (not shown) of the intersection 5 to a point about several hundred meters upstream is set as the determination region S1. The roadside communication device 100 can receive travel information from each vehicle 200 that passes through the determination area S1. In FIG. 3, one determination area S <b> 1 is illustrated for simplicity, but can be provided in each inflow path. Further, a vehicle detector 6 can be provided in the vicinity of the upstream end of the determination region S1.

  The vehicle sensor 6 senses a vehicle passing through a point upstream of the determination area S <b> 1 and transmits sensed data to the roadside communication device 100. Based on the sensed data, the traffic flow rate (number of vehicles / unit time) of the inflow path can be calculated. The traffic flow rate may be calculated by the vehicle sensor 6 or other external device and transmitted to the road communication device 100, or the road flow rate 100 may be calculated by the road communication device 100.

  FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a change in traffic volume. In FIG. 4, the average speed V and the traffic flow rate Q of the vehicle are illustrated as traffic indexes indicating changes in traffic volume. As shown in FIG. 4A, the traffic jam determination unit 14 determines that there is no traffic jam (for example, quiet) when the average speed V is relatively large, for example, greater than a predetermined threshold speed. When the vehicle detector 6 is installed, the traffic flow rate of the inflow path is relatively small, for example, when it is smaller than a predetermined threshold value, it is determined that there is no traffic jam.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 4B, the traffic jam determination unit 14 determines that there is traffic jam (for example, near saturation or over saturation) when the average speed V is relatively small, for example, smaller than a predetermined threshold speed. In addition, the traffic jam determination unit 14 can identify the time of change from no traffic jam to traffic jam or the time of change from traffic jam to traffic jam by monitoring the average speed V of the vehicle 200 traveling on the inflow path. it can. Thereby, the presence or absence of traffic jam can be determined based on the received travel information.

  When the traffic flow rate Q can be acquired, the traffic congestion determination unit 14 determines that there is traffic congestion when the traffic flow rate Q is relatively large, for example, greater than a predetermined threshold. Further, the traffic jam determination unit 14 can identify the time of change from no traffic jam to traffic jam or the time of change from traffic jam to traffic jam by monitoring the traffic flow rate Q of the inflow path. Thereby, the presence or absence of traffic congestion can be determined with higher accuracy.

  FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of information that the roadside communication device 100 transmits in response to a change in traffic conditions. As shown in FIG. 5, when there is a traffic jam (near saturated or oversaturated state), the roadside communication device 100 transmits the trajectory information of each vehicle 200 in the determination area S <b> 1 to the central device 4, for example. The trajectory information is, for example, information such as a vehicle ID, a vehicle position, a time at the position, a vehicle orientation, and a speed.

  Further, when there is no traffic jam (in a quiet state), the roadside communication device 100 transmits a traffic index such as the average speed V of each vehicle 200 in the determination area S1 to the central device 4, for example.

  During normal times when no traffic jam occurs, the result of the traffic volume calculated by the road communicator 100 (such as the average speed V as a traffic index) is transmitted to the central device 4 so that the travel information received from each vehicle 200 can be obtained. Since information with a small amount of data is transmitted, the tightness of the communication line can be suppressed. Further, when the traffic volume changes and traffic congestion occurs, the trajectory information of each vehicle 200 can be diagnosed by transmitting the trajectory information of each vehicle 200 to the central device 4, and traffic congestion can be diagnosed. The cause (for example, right turn overflow) can be determined, and appropriate signal control can be performed.

  Next, a case where travel time changes as a traffic index will be described.

  FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a determination region for determining a change in travel time. As shown in FIG. 6, the main road and the secondary road intersect at the intersection 5. A required determination area S2 is provided upstream of the inflow path to the intersection 5 of the main road, and a required determination area S3 is provided downstream of the outflow path from the intersection 5 of the main road. The travel time is the time until the vehicle 200 that has passed the determination area S2 passes the determination area S3.

  The index calculation unit 13 calculates a travel time between two points, a point on the upstream side of the intersection 5 (determination region S2) and a point on the downstream side (determination region S3) as a traffic indicator. In addition, the area | region of a required range is also contained in a point.

  The traffic jam determination unit 14 determines that there is traffic jam when the travel time calculated by the index calculation unit 13 is longer than a predetermined threshold time Th. In addition, the traffic jam determination unit 14 determines that there is no traffic jam when the travel time calculated by the index calculation unit 13 is shorter than a predetermined threshold time Th. Thereby, the presence or absence of traffic jam can be determined based on the received travel information.

  The calculation of the travel time in the index calculation unit 13 and the determination of the presence or absence of traffic congestion in the traffic congestion determination unit 14 are, for example, instructions from the downstream road device 1 (road communication device) or the central device 4 or preset. You can start based on the traffic flow rate.

  FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram illustrating another example of information that the roadside communication device 100 transmits in accordance with changes in traffic conditions. As shown in FIG. 7, when there is a traffic jam (near saturated or supersaturated state), the roadside communication device 100 uses, for example, the roadside device 1 on the downstream side (roadside) (Including communication equipment). The trajectory information is, for example, information such as a vehicle ID, a vehicle position, a time at the position, a vehicle orientation, and a speed.

  Further, when there is no traffic jam (in a quiet state), the roadside communication device 100 transmits a traffic index such as the calculated travel time to the roadside device 1 on the downstream side, for example. In this case, the calculated travel time may be transmitted to the central device 4.

  When there is no traffic jam (for example, a state of quietness, free flow, etc.), the trajectory information of the vehicle is not so important. On the other hand, when traffic congestion has already occurred (oversaturated state), or when traffic congestion is occurring (nearly saturated state), the trajectory information of the vehicle passing through the upstream point of the road is downstream of the road. This is important for calculating travel time (link travel time) at a point on the side. Therefore, in a state where a traffic jam occurs or a traffic jam is likely to occur, the road communication device 100 does not transmit the travel information of each vehicle 200 that can be received, but is determined to be on the outflow side of the intersection. By transmitting the trajectory information of the vehicle 200 that has passed through the area S3 to the downstream road device 1 (including the road communication device), it is possible to reduce the tightness of the communication line. In this case, since the downstream road device 1 can receive the trajectory information of the upstream vehicle from the road communication device 100, the travel time can be calculated by the downstream road device 1.

  When determining the presence or absence of traffic congestion based on travel time, the signal waiting time at the intersection 5 can be taken into consideration. The control unit 10 has a function as setting means, and sets a threshold time Th based on signal information acquired via the communication unit 11. For example, when a vehicle that passes through the determination area S2 that is a point on the upstream side of the road passes through the intersection 5 and passes through a determination area S3 that is a point on the downstream side of the road, the vehicle passes between two points. If the signal light at intersection 5 turns red in the meantime, a stop time is added during which the vehicle must stop during the travel time. For this reason, an accurate travel time can be calculated by setting the threshold time Th according to the signal information so as to offset the stop time of the vehicle.

  In the above-described embodiment, the control unit 10 can also control to transmit the trajectory information from the time when it is determined that there is a traffic jam to the time when it is determined that there is no traffic jam. For example, the trajectory information necessary for specifying the cause of the traffic jam is transmitted from the time when the traffic jam occurs. Then, the traffic jam mitigation process is performed based on the transmitted trajectory information, and the transmission of the trajectory information is stopped when the traffic jam is resolved. Therefore, it is possible to optimize the timing for transmitting the trajectory information. In addition, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the trajectory information is continuously transmitted even after a traffic jam occurs and the traffic jam is resolved, and it is possible to reduce the tightness of the communication line. Instead of a configuration that transmits trajectory information from the time when it is determined that there is traffic to the time when it is determined that there is no traffic, the trajectory information is transmitted for a predetermined time from the time when it is determined that there is traffic. You may make it do.

  In addition, when it is determined that there is no traffic jam, the control unit 10 can also perform control to stop transmission of trajectory information. As a result, unnecessary trajectory information is not transmitted, and the tightness of the communication line can be reduced.

  In the above-described embodiment, instead of switching the information to be transmitted, the frequency of the information to be transmitted may be changed. For example, even when there is no traffic jam, the trajectory information may be required as a sample or reference. In this case, the amount of trajectory information may be small. On the other hand, there is a case where it is desired to check traffic indicators such as average speed even when a traffic jam occurs. In this case, the traffic index data amount may be small. That is, when it is quiet, the frequency of collecting traffic indicators is increased and the frequency of collecting trajectory information is decreased. On the other hand, during traffic jams, the frequency of traffic index collection is reduced and the frequency of trajectory information collection is increased.

  The disclosed embodiments are to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive. The scope of the present invention is defined by the terms of the claims, rather than the description above, and is intended to include any modifications within the scope and meaning equivalent to the terms of the claims.
