- The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present disclosure and may not constitute prior art.
- As automotive technology makes great strides, various technologies for implementing the convenience of a driver have been developed. Among those technologies, a parking steering assist system that assists a parking of an unskilled driver is a system which searches a parking space through a video camera or an ultrasonic sensor and controls a steering system of a vehicle to park the vehicle on the searched parking space. When controlling the parking steering of a vehicle, a conventional parking steering assistance system searches an actual parking space and transmits information on basic parking environment related to parallel parking mode and perpendicular parking mode and information on transmission operation through at least one of a screen display unit and a sound output unit of the vehicle to a driver.
- However, in the development of vehicles, the conventional parking steering assistance system calculates a parking guide line by applying a normal tire size. Further, after the development of the vehicle, even when the tire size is changed due to a tire tuning, the existing normal tire size is still used to calculate the parking guide line. Accordingly, there may be a concern if a discrepancy exists between a required parking guide line and a calculated parking guide line.

- Hereinafter, referring to
FIG. 2 toFIG. 4 , forms of the present disclosure are described in detail. -
FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of a parking steering assistance system according to one form of the present disclosure. - The parking steering assistance system according to one form of the present disclosure may include an
obstacle recognition unit 100, adistance calculating unit 200, astorage unit 300, and aparking controller 400. - The
obstacle recognition unit 100 may recognize obstacles adjacent to a vehicle when parking the vehicle and determine whether the obstacle is a wall, a curb or other vehicle. - The
distance calculating unit 200 may calculate distance information between the parked vehicle and the obstacle to store in thestorage unit 300. - The
storage unit 300 may store a normal tire dynamic radius value (T), an improved distance value (A) of a distance between the obstacle and a vehicle, a reference value (Z), and a tire dynamic radius value correction table. The tire dynamic radius value correction table is a table which stores a corrected tire dynamic radius value (Tc) for each of a difference between an average (E) of N times of a distance between the obstacle and the vehicle and the improved distance value (A). - The
parking controller 400 may determine whether the parking of the vehicle is completed, and determine whether an obstacle adjacent to the vehicle exists when the parking of the vehicle is completed. In addition, theparking controller 400 may calculate an average value (E) of a distance value when distance information, between the vehicle and the adjacent obstacle, which is calculated by thedistance calculating unit 200 at every parking, is accumulated N times or more. - In this case, in association with the
obstacle recognition unit 100, when it is determined that an obstacle does not exist, or, in association with thedistance calculating unit 200, when it is determined that a difference value between the improved distance value (A) stored in thestorage unit 300 and the calculated distance information exceeds a certain value, theparking controller 400 may determine that the parking is accomplished in a place where an obstacle does not exist, and may not perform the tracing of distance, for example, may not store the calculated distance information in thestorage unit 300. - In addition, the
parking controller 400 may calculate a difference between the average value (E) of the distance and the improved distance value (A), and may compare the difference between the average value (E) of the distance and the improved distance value (A) with the reference value (Z). That is, when the difference between the average value (E) of the distance and the improved distance value (A) is the reference value (Z) or less, theparking controller 400 may not change the tire dynamic radius value stored in thestorage unit 300. Further, when the difference between the average value (E) of the distance and the improved distance value (A) is greater than the reference value (Z), theparking controller 400 may change the tire dynamic radius value stored in thestorage unit 300 into the corrected tire dynamic radius value. - In this case, the
parking controller 400 may change the tire dynamic radius value into the corrected tire dynamic radius value by using a tire dynamic radius value correction table which is previously stored in thestorage unit 300. At this time, the tire dynamic radius value correction table is shown in Table 1 below. -
TABLE 1 Average value −30~−20 −20~−10 −10~10 10~20 20~30 (E) of distance information - Improved distance value (A) Corrected tire 60 cm 55 cm 50 cm 45 cm 40 cm dynamic radius value (Tc) - Referring to Table 1, an example of correcting the parking guide line according to the change of tire dynamic radius value is described in detail.
- It is assumed that the improved distance value (A) which is previously stored in the
storage unit 300 is 15 cm, the normal tire dynamic radius value (T) is 50 cm, the reference value (Z) is 10 cm, and the tire dynamic radius value correction table is shown in Table 1. - When the average value (E) of distance information of distance value (X1, X2 . . . Xn) between the obstacle and the vehicle, which is calculated N times or more and stored, is 30 cm, the difference value between the average value (E) of distance information and the improved distance value (A) becomes 30-15, that is, 15. Since the difference value, which is 15, between the average value (E) of distance information and the improved distance value (A) is greater than the reference value (Z) which is 10, the
parking controller 400 may determine that the tire dynamic radius value is changed due to a wheel exchange, a decrease of tire pressure, or the like, and change the tire dynamic radius value into the corrected tire dynamic radius value (Tc) of 45 cm corresponding to a range 10 to 20 to which the difference value, which is 15, between the average value (E) of distance information and the improved distance value (A) belongs, in the tire dynamic radius value correction table of Table 1. Accordingly, theparking controller 400 may prevent a parking error by applying the corrected tire dynamic radius value (Tc) of 45 cm when calculating the parking guide line later. - As described above, in order to change the tire dynamic radius value, the corrected tire dynamic radius value may be changed by using the tire dynamic radius value correction table using the distance information between the obstacle and the vehicle after the parking is completed.
- As another method of changing the tire dynamic radius value, there is a method of calculating a tire dynamic radius value using a lateral movement distance and the number of revolutions of a tire. That is, the tire dynamic radius value may be calculated by the lateral movement distance on a control path of the parking steering assistance system and the number of revolutions of a tire for the lateral movement distance. For example, on the assumption that the number of revolutions of a tire is increased when the tire size is decreased and the number of revolutions of a tire is decreased when the tire size is increased, a tire dynamic radius value correction table which stores a corrected tire dynamic radius value according to the number of revolutions of a tire may be previously stored as shown in
FIG. 1 to correct the tire dynamic radius value according to the number of revolutions of a tire. - Thus, when the tire dynamic radius value (T) stored in the
storage unit 300 is changed and stored into the corrected tire dynamic radius value (Tc), theparking controller 400 may calculate the parking guide line again by using the changed tire dynamic radius value (Tc) to correct the current parking, or may provide a parking guide line based on a new tire dynamic radius value in the next parking. - Referring to
FIG. 3 , the method for correcting a parking guide line of a parking steering assistance system according to one form of the present disclosure is described in detail. - Firstly, the
storage unit 300 may store a normal tire dynamic radius value (T), an improved distance value (A) of a distance between an obstacle and a vehicle, a reference value (Z), and a tire dynamic radius value correction table. - The
parking controller 400 may determine whether parking is completed when the vehicle is parked (S101). Theparking controller 400 may determine whether an obstacle adjacent to the vehicle is a curb, a wall, another vehicle, or the like after the parking is completed, and calculate and store distance information between the obstacle and the vehicle (S102). - Then, the
parking controller 400 may perform the parking N-times or more and determine whether the distance information between the obstacle and the vehicle is stored N-times or more (S103). When the distance information (X1, X2, X3 . . . Xn) is stored by performing the parking N-times or more, theparking controller 400 may calculate an average value of the distance information (X1, X2, X3 . . . Xn) between the obstacle and the vehicle obtained by performing the parking N-times or more (S104). - Then, the
parking controller 400 may calculate a difference between the average value of distance information and the improved distance value, and may compare the difference between the average value of distance information and the improved distance value with the reference value which is previously stored in the storage unit 300 (S105). - When the difference between the average value of distance information and the improved distance value is the reference value or less, the
parking controller 400 may determine that the tire dynamic radius is not changed and may control not to change the tire dynamic radius value stored in the storage unit 300 (S106). - On the other hand, when the difference between the average value of distance information and the improved distance value is greater than the reference value, the
parking controller 400 may correct (change) the tire dynamic radius by using the tire dynamic radius value correction table which is previously stored in the storage unit 300 (S107). - Thus, the tire dynamic radius value (T) stored in the
storage unit 300 is changed into the corrected tire dynamic radius value (Tc) and stored, and theparking controller 400 may follow the parking guide line by using the changed tire dynamic radius value (Tc). -
