- this apparatus recognizes the presence of a preceding vehicle by detecting the relative position and relative speed of an object that is in front of the vehicle to be supported in the traveling direction. When a preceding vehicle is detected, inter-vehicle distance control is performed to cause the preceding vehicle to follow the preceding vehicle.
- inter-vehicle distance control for example, when the inter-vehicle distance between the vehicle to be supported and the preceding vehicle becomes a certain distance or more, control for accelerating the vehicle to be supported is executed.
- the driving support device performs vehicle speed control that maintains the traveling speed of the vehicle to be supported at a set speed, so-called cruise control. In this cruise control, when the traveling speed of the vehicle to be supported falls below the set speed, control for accelerating the vehicle to the set speed is executed.
- Such problems are not limited to vehicles that provide driving assistance by inter-vehicle control or cruise control, but are generally common to vehicles that provide multiple types of driving assistance.

Thereby, the acceleration of the vehicle through the acceleration support and the deceleration of the vehicle through the deceleration support are performed smoothly, and the effect of each driving support is ensured. This also suppresses the driver's uncomfortable feeling to a minimum even in a vehicle capable of providing conflicting assistance such as acceleration assistance and deceleration assistance.

- the support area where the driving support is performed and the non-support area where the driving support is not performed are defined with respect to the relative relationship between the first time and the second time. Maps are used. For this reason, collision avoidance is based on whether the first time and the second time based on the vehicle to be supported and the moving object in the vicinity belong to the support area or the non-support area of the map. It is determined whether or not support is required. As a result, the necessity of the collision avoidance support is easily performed.

Abstract
Description
本発明は、このような実情に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的は、複数種の運転支援が行われる車両であれ、各運転支援の適正性を維持することのできる運転支援装置及び運転支援方法を提供することにある。
上記課題を達成するため、本発明に従う運転支援装置は、車両の運転を支援する運転支援装置において、複数種の支援要素による各別の運転支援を実行する運転支援部と、規定された規定時間内に前記運転支援部による前記複数種の支援要素に基づく少なくとも2つの運転支援が実行されるとき、該少なくとも2以上の運転支援の調停を行う支援調停部と、を備える。
本発明の一態様では、前記複数種の支援要素に基づく少なくとも2つの運転支援として、相反する支援態様による各別の運転支援を選定する。
以下、本発明にかかる運転支援装置及び運転支援方法を具体化した第1の実施の形態について図1~図8を参照して説明する。
運転支援部200には、各種情報をドライバに伝達する車載のHMI(ヒューマン・マシン・インターフェース)400、及び介入制御を行う車載の介入制御装置410が接続されている。
TTC=x/(V-vx) …(1)
なお、TTC算出部211aは、自車両の走行速度「V」を、車速センサ105等の検出結果に基づき求める。また、TTC算出部211aは、移動体の位置「x」及び移動体の速度「vx」を、移動体情報取得部110から入力された信号に基づいて求める。
TTV=y/(vy) …(2)
なお、TTV算出部211bは、移動体の自車両に対する相対位置「y」、及び移動体の速度「vy」を、移動体情報取得部110から入力された信号に基づいて求める。
HMIエリアA21は、支援領域A2のうち、第1の時間TTCと第2の時間TTVとの原点0から最も離れた位置に規定されている。HMIエリアA21は、ドライバに対して移動体の存在や車両Crと移動体との異常接近を警告する運転支援が行われるエリアである。なお、このHMIエリアA21に規定された運転支援は、上記算出された第1の時間TTC及び第2の時間TTVが当該HMIエリアA21に位置するときに行われる。
支援発動部212は、発動条件が成立すると、上記算出された第1の時間TTC及び第2の時間TTVが交差する点が位置するエリア(HMIエリアA21、介入制御エリアA22、及び緊急介入制御エリアA23)を示す信号を、図1に示すように、衝突回避支援を実行する回避制御部214に出力する。また、支援発動部212は、発動条件が成立すると、例えば、上記算出された第1の時間TTC及び第2の時間TTV、並びに交差地点の緯度経度等を示す信号を、回避制御部214に出力する。
図5に示すように、まずステップS100において、車両の周辺に存在する歩行者や他車両等の移動体が検知されると、この移動体の位置、移動方向、及び移動速度、すなわち速度ベクトルが検出される。
図6に示すように、まず、本処理の実行時には第1の時間TTC及び第2の時間TTVの交点が支援領域A2に属していることから、HMI400を作動させるためのHMI作動フラグが「1」に設定される(ステップS200)。
これに対し、図8に推移L2として示すように、本実施の形態では、或るポイントPx1で第1の時間TTC及び第2の時間TTVが支援領域A2に属することになると、衝突回避支援が実行される。この結果、支援対象となる車両が減速する。そして、第1の時間TTC及び第2の時間TTVの推移L2は、ポイントPx2から直線S1上のポイントPx5に向かって進行し、支援領域A2を脱することとなる。
(1)運転支援部200が、複数種の支援要素による各別の運転支援を実行した。また、支援調停部300が、規定された規定時間内に運転支援部200による複数種の支援要素に基づく少なくとも2つの運転支援が実行されるとき、該少なくとも2以上の運転支援の調停を行った。運転支援部200が実行する各運転支援が互いに干渉することや、規定時間内に複数種の運転支援が繰り返し実行されることが抑制される。これにより、複数種の運転支援が行われる車両であれ、各運転支援の適正性を維持することが可能となる。
次に、本発明にかかる運転支援装置及び運転支援方法の第2の実施の形態を、第1の実施の形態との相違点を中心に、図9及び図10を参照して説明する。なお、本実施の形態にかかる運転支援装置及び運転支援方法も、その基本的な構成は第1の実施の形態と同等であり、図9及び図10においても第1の実施の形態と実質的に同一の要素にはそれぞれ同一の符号を付して示し、重複する説明は割愛する。
減速調停部320は、衝突回避支援部210から入力される介入制御情報、車間距離支援部220から入力される減速情報、及び定速走行支援部230から入力される減速情報に基づき実行される減速支援を調停する調停処理を実行する。
図10に示すように、本実施の形態では、先の図5のステップS100~ステップS103と同じ処理が実行され、第1の時間TTC及び第2の時間TTVの交点が支援領域A2の範囲内に属するか否かが判定される(ステップS104)。第1の時間TTC及び第2の時間TTVの交点が支援領域A2の範囲内に属していると判定されると(ステップS104:YES)、車間距離支援部220もしくは定速走行支援部230が減速情報を出力しているか否か、すなわち減速支援の発動要請が行われているか否かが判定される(ステップS120)。
なお、上記各実施の形態は、以下のような形態をもって実施することもできる。
・上記各実施の形態では、図6のステップS203、S206として示したように、介入制御もしくは緊急介入制御が行われるとき、HMI400によるHMI制御も共に行われた。これに限らず、図6に対応する図として図11に示すように、介入制御の実行条件が満たされたとき、介入制御のみが行われてもよい(ステップS203A)。また、緊急介入制御の実行条件が満たされたとき、緊急介入制御のみが行われてもよい(ステップS206A)。
