Description

車線変更制御装置Lane change control device
 本発明は、自動車に代表される車両の自動運転システムにおいて車線変更を制御する車線変更制御装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a lane change control device for controlling a lane change in an automatic driving system of a vehicle represented by an automobile.
 運転者の安全支援を行う機能には、設定した速度で走行し、前走車がいる場合は速度を自動的に調整して間隔を保つ「定速走行・車間距離制御装置(ACC)」や「車線維持制御装置(以降、LKAS)」がある。LKASは、走行車線の左右実白線を前方カメラにより認識し、その左右実白線の中心を目標走行車線として車両走行制御する装置である。 The driver's safety support function includes a `` constant speed driving / inter-vehicle distance control device (ACC) '' that runs at a set speed and automatically adjusts the speed when there is a preceding vehicle. There is a “lane keeping control device (hereinafter LKAS)”. LKAS is a device for recognizing a left and right solid white line of a travel lane with a front camera and controlling the vehicle travel with the center of the left and right solid white line as a target travel lane.
 このLKASが作動している時に車線変更を行うと、車線変更前と車線変更後で走行車線が変わるため、実白線の未認識期間が生じ、LKASが解除される。 ∙ If the lane change is performed while this LKAS is operating, the driving lane will change before and after the lane change, resulting in an unrecognized period of the solid white line, and LKAS will be cancelled.
 また、運転者によるウインカ点滅操作が行われた場合も、車線変更の意思があると判断し、前記実白線未認識による解除より前にLKASが解除される。 Also, when the driver blinks the blinker, it is determined that there is an intention to change the lane, and LKAS is released before the release due to the unrecognized solid white line.
 このため、車線変更時は運転者によるハンドル操作が必要であったが、近年では、LKASが解除されても目標車線変更位置を設けて自動操舵制御して車線変更する技術が提案されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。 For this reason, a steering wheel operation by the driver was necessary at the time of lane change, but in recent years, a technology has been proposed in which a target lane change position is provided and automatic steering control is performed to change the lane even when LKAS is canceled ( For example, see Patent Document 1).
特開2014-091512号公報JP 2014-091512 A
 しかしながら、特許文献1に所載の技術では、車線変更を行う際にLKASが解除され、LKASランプが消灯してしまうため、走行車線を逸脱すると車両が自動車線変更を行っているのか分からなくなり、運転者は不安や違和感を持った車線変更となる。 However, in the technique described in Patent Document 1, when lane change is performed, LKAS is canceled and the LKAS lamp is extinguished. Therefore, if the vehicle deviates from the travel lane, it is not known whether the vehicle is changing the lane. The driver changes lanes with anxiety and discomfort.

<周辺装置から情報取得S201>
 最初のステップS201では、自動運転車303が、カメラシステム101の実白線331、332を認識し、LKASを動作(LKASランプを点灯)させ、常に、カメラシステム101が検出した実白線、周辺状況検出装置102が検出した自車両周辺情報、高精度地図装置103が検出した地図情報および目的地経路情報、路側通信装置104が検出する進行路の交通情報、車速検出部125およびヨーレート検出部126が検出する車速およびヨーレート、表示装置105から入力された運転者意思情報などの情報を取得しながら、走行路A301を走行している。
<Information acquisition from peripheral device S201>
In the first step S201, the autonomous driving vehicle 303 recognizes the actual white lines 331 and 332 of the camera system 101, operates the LKAS (the LKAS lamp is lit), and always detects the actual white line and the surrounding situation detected by the camera system 101.

<Lane change detection S202>
In subsequent S202, in order to overtake the preceding vehicle 304, the lane change is made from the travel route A301 to the travel route B302 of the right adjacent lane. Let
 これにより、車線変更検知装置112は、ウインカ制御部124からウインカ点滅状態の通知を受け、右側車線への車線変更を検知する。 Thus, the lane change detection device 112 receives a notification of the blinker blinking state from the blinker control unit 124 and detects a lane change to the right lane.
 車線変更を検知すると、車線変更可否の判断(S203)を依頼する。 When a lane change is detected, a request is made to determine whether a lane change is possible (S203).
 なお、本発明ではウインカ制御部124からの通知により車線変更を検知するが、運転者がウインカの点滅を操作した場合や、目的地経路から、車線変更を検知してもよい。 In the present invention, a lane change is detected by a notification from the turn signal control unit 124, but a lane change may be detected when the driver operates blinking of a turn signal or from a destination route.
<車線変更判断S203、S204>
 S203およびS204では、周辺状況検出装置102が検出した自車両周辺情報から、前側方の他車両、および後側方からの急接近車などにより車両と接触しないことを確認し、車線変更の可否を判断する。更に、車線変更方向に隣接車線があるか、また車線変更禁止車線でないかなど、地図情報の道路形状や規制情報により車線変更可否を判断する。
<Lane change determination S203, S204>
In S203 and S204, it is confirmed from the vehicle surrounding information detected by the surrounding situation detection device 102 that the vehicle does not come into contact with the other vehicle on the front side and the vehicle approaching from the rear side, and the lane change is determined. to decide. Further, whether or not the lane can be changed is determined based on the road shape of the map information and the restriction information, such as whether there is an adjacent lane in the lane change direction or whether the lane change is prohibited.
 車線変更可能であると判断した場合は、仮想白線生成(S205)を依頼する。 If it is determined that the lane can be changed, a virtual white line generation (S205) is requested.
 車線変更不可の場合は、車線変更不可要因(例えば、後側方からの急接近車)を取り除いて、再度S203の車線変更可否判断を行う。 If the lane change is impossible, the lane change impossible factor (for example, a rapid approaching vehicle from the rear side) is removed, and the lane change possibility determination in S203 is performed again.
<仮想白線生成S205>
 S205では、走行路Aと走行路Bを繋ぐ仮想白線305を生成する。この仮想白線の生成を図7にて説明する。
<Virtual White Line Generation S205>
In S205, a virtual white line 305 that connects the travel path A and the travel path B is generated. The generation of this virtual white line will be described with reference to FIG.
 自動運転車303は、S201にて地図情報の道路形状から、走行路Aの実白線(カメラシステム101からの実白線と一致)と走行路Bの実白線を取得しており、走行路Aと走行路Bの実白線形状は正しく認識できている。 In S201, the automatic driving vehicle 303 acquires the solid white line of the road A (matching the solid white line from the camera system 101) and the solid white line of the road B from the road shape of the map information. The solid white line shape of the traveling path B is correctly recognized.
 次に、自動運転車位置から車線変更の操舵を開始する仮想白線切換始点706を決め、運転者が設定した車線変更時間、車速、ヨーレートから車線変更軌道(走行軌道)704を算出する。この車線変更軌道704は、前記車速等の情報より車線変更の操舵終了地点である仮想白線切換終点708を先に求めてから算出してもよい。これは、車線変更軌道704が自動運転車303の速度に応じた曲線であり、速度が大きいと車線変更に係る距離も長くなるためである(図8参照)。 Next, a virtual white line switching start point 706 for starting lane change steering is determined from the position of the autonomous driving vehicle, and a lane change trajectory (traveling trajectory) 704 is calculated from the lane change time, vehicle speed, and yaw rate set by the driver. The lane change track 704 may be calculated after first obtaining the virtual white line switching end point 708 that is the steering end point of the lane change from the information such as the vehicle speed. This is because the lane change track 704 is a curve corresponding to the speed of the autonomous driving vehicle 303, and the distance related to the lane change increases as the speed increases (see FIG. 8).
 この車線変更軌道704は、隣接車線への車線変更では複合クロソイド曲線となるが、この車線変更軌道704に道路形状の曲率、縦横勾配に基づいて補正を行う。 The lane change track 704 becomes a compound clothoid curve when the lane is changed to an adjacent lane, and the lane change track 704 is corrected based on the curvature of the road shape and the vertical and horizontal gradients.
 次に、前記補正後の車線変更軌道から、仮想白線切換中点707および仮想白線切換終点708などの形状点を抽出する。 Next, shape points such as a virtual white line switching middle point 707 and a virtual white line switching end point 708 are extracted from the corrected lane change trajectory.
 次に、仮想白線切換余裕区間712を仮想白線切換始点706の手前と、仮想白線切換終点708の奥に設け、その先端または終端を仮想白線生成始点709と仮想白線生成終点710とする。この仮想白線切換余裕区間712は、実白線と仮想白線を一定区間重複させることで、実白線と仮想白線を違和感なく繋げるためのものである。この仮想白線切換余裕区間712は、速度に応じた時間換算距離や特定距離(例えば、100km/hの場合約30m)としてもよい。 Next, a virtual white line switching allowance section 712 is provided in front of the virtual white line switching start point 706 and in the back of the virtual white line switching end point 708, and the tip or end thereof is set as a virtual white line generation start point 709 and a virtual white line generation end point 710. The virtual white line switching margin section 712 is used to connect the real white line and the virtual white line without a sense of incongruity by overlapping the real white line and the virtual white line for a certain period. This virtual white line switching margin section 712 may be a time-converted distance or a specific distance according to the speed (for example, about 30 m in the case of 100 km / h).
 次に、前記走行軌道の形状点位置に対する各レーン幅711を用いて、左右仮想白線位置を算出し、その仮想白線位置を繋いで仮想白線305を生成する。 Next, the left and right virtual white line positions are calculated using the respective lane widths 711 with respect to the shape point positions of the travel track, and the virtual white line 305 is generated by connecting the virtual white line positions.
 このとき用いるレーン幅711は、仮想白線切換中点707までは走行路Aの車線のレーン幅を、仮想白線切換中点707後は走行路Bの車線のレーン幅を用いる。 As the lane width 711 used at this time, the lane width of the lane on the road A is used up to the virtual white line switching midpoint 707, and the lane width of the lane on the road B is used after the virtual white line switching midpoint 707.
 前記生成した仮想白線305は、走行路Aの実白線331と332と仮想白線、および仮想白線と走行路Bの実白線332と333と繋がることになる。 The generated virtual white line 305 is connected to the actual white lines 331 and 332 of the travel path A and the virtual white line, and the virtual white line and the actual white lines 332 and 333 of the travel path B.
 なお、レーン幅711は走行路B側に速度抑制レーンマークなどがある場合には、仮想白線切換中点707から仮想白線切換終点708までの間でレーン幅を減少させて生成し、レーン幅に基づいて減速させるなど速度調整を行ってもよい。この場合、車線維持制御装置(LKAS)117から定速走行・車間距離制御装置(ACC)116へ加減速指示を行うことになる。 The lane width 711 is generated by reducing the lane width between the virtual white line switching middle point 707 and the virtual white line switching end point 708 when there is a speed suppression lane mark on the traveling road B side. You may adjust speed, such as decelerating based on it. In this case, an acceleration / deceleration instruction is issued from the lane keeping control device (LKAS) 117 to the constant speed travel / inter-vehicle distance control device (ACC) 116.
<制御白線制御S206>
 図2、図3に戻り、S206では、カメラシステム101からの実白線331、332をS205で生成した仮想白線305に接続して制御白線を決定し、その制御白線情報を車線維持制御装置(LKAS)117へ通知する。車線維持制御装置(LKAS)117は、制御白線から車線の中心を求め、目標走行車線に沿った走行を行うよう当該車両を制御する。
<Control white line control S206>
2 and 3, in S206, the actual white lines 331 and 332 from the camera system 101 are connected to the virtual white line 305 generated in S205 to determine the control white line, and the control white line information is transferred to the lane keeping control device (LKAS). ) 117 is notified. The lane keeping control device (LKAS) 117 obtains the center of the lane from the control white line, and controls the vehicle to travel along the target travel lane.
 これにより、制御白線をあたかも実白線として走行制御することで、LKASを維持(LKASランプ点灯)したまま、実白線を跨いで自動車線変更を行うことができる。 Thus, by controlling the driving as if the control white line was a solid white line, it is possible to change the vehicle line across the solid white line while maintaining the LKAS (LKAS lamp lit).
 また、このとき、表示装置105は、実白線331、332から仮想白線を走行する画面表示と、実白線から仮想白線に走行が切り替わることを音声発話にて運転者に通知し、運転者は自動運転制御による車線変更を行っていることが認知でき、不安や違和感を軽減できる。 At this time, the display device 105 notifies the driver by voice utterance that the driving is switched from the real white line to the virtual white line, and the screen display for running the virtual white line from the actual white lines 331 and 332, and the driver automatically You can recognize that you are changing lanes by driving control, and you can reduce anxiety and discomfort.
 その後、仮想白線と実白線332、333は、自動運転車303が走行路Bの仮想白線走行中にカメラシステム101で実白線を認識したときに接続される。 Thereafter, the virtual white line and the solid white lines 332 and 333 are connected when the automatic driving vehicle 303 recognizes the solid white line with the camera system 101 while traveling on the virtual white line on the travel path B.
 なお、カメラシステム101からの実白線、地図情報の道路形状の実白線、仮想白線、を階層化して重ね合わせ、仮想白線、カメラシステム101からの実白線、道路形状の実白線、の優先順位で取り出して繋ぎ合わせてもよい。この方法とすると、仮想白線と走行路Bの実白線が車線変更前から繋がることになる。 The solid white line from the camera system 101, the solid white line of the road shape of the map information, and the virtual white line are layered and overlapped, and the virtual white line, the real white line from the camera system 101, and the solid white line of the road shape are prioritized. You may take it out and join it together. With this method, the virtual white line and the actual white line of the road B are connected before the lane change.
[実施例2]
 次に、分岐または合流する場合に白線を跨いで車線変更する実施例2について、図4および図5にて説明する。
[Example 2]
Next, Example 2 which changes a lane across a white line when branching or joining will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5.
 この実施例2も実施例1と同様、本発明の車線変更制御装置を搭載した車両である。 As in Example 1, Example 2 is a vehicle equipped with the lane change control device of the present invention.
 実施例2の一つは、自動運転車403が、走行路A401から分岐路402へ分岐による車線変更する場合である(図4参照)。 One of the second embodiments is a case where the autonomous driving vehicle 403 changes lanes by branching from the traveling path A 401 to the branch path 402 (see FIG. 4).
 この場合、自動運転車403は、左側ウインカ点滅により車線変更を検知する。 In this case, the autonomous driving vehicle 403 detects a lane change by blinking the left turn signal.
 次に、目的地経路や地図情報の道路形状より、左側車線がなく、左側前方に分岐路があるため、分岐による車線変更であると判断する。 Next, from the destination route and the road shape of the map information, there is no left lane and there is a branch road ahead on the left side, so it is determined that the lane change is due to a branch.
 車線変更可否判断は、実施例1と同様、自車両周辺情報から分岐車線変更が可能か判断する。 In the same way as in the first embodiment, the determination as to whether or not the lane can be changed is made based on the information on the surroundings of the own vehicle.
 分岐の車線変更が可能である場合は、地図情報の道路形状を基に走行路A401と分岐路402との間に仮想白線405を生成する。このとき、実施例1と異なるのは、車両通行帯線を通過して分岐しなくてはいけないため、地図情報の道路形状から車線変更可能範囲406の位置を認識し、その上を通過するように仮想白線405を生成する。 When the branch lane can be changed, a virtual white line 405 is generated between the travel route A 401 and the branch route 402 based on the road shape of the map information. At this time, the difference from the first embodiment is that it has to pass through the vehicle traffic lane and branch off, so that the position of the lane changeable range 406 is recognized from the road shape of the map information and passes above it. A virtual white line 405 is generated.
 前記生成した仮想白線405と走行路A401の実白線404を接続し、LKASを維持(LKASランプ点灯)したまま、車両通行帯線を跨いで分岐の車線変更を行うことができる。 The generated virtual white line 405 and the actual white line 404 of the travel route A401 are connected, and the lane of the branch can be changed across the vehicle traffic lane while maintaining the LKAS (LKAS lamp is lit).
 実施例2の二つ目は、自動運転車503が、合流路501から走行路A502へ合流による車線変更する場合である(図5参照)。 The second example of the second embodiment is a case where the autonomous driving vehicle 503 changes lanes by merging from the merge path 501 to the travel path A 502 (see FIG. 5).
 前記分岐の車線変更と同様、自動運転車503は、右側ウインカ点滅により、目的地経路や道路形状により、合流の車線変更を検知する。 Like the branch lane change, the self-driving vehicle 503 detects the merged lane change based on the destination route and road shape by blinking the right side blinker.
 車線変更可否判断は、実施例1と同様、自車両周辺情報から合流の車線変更が可能か判断する。 In the same manner as in the first embodiment, the lane change permission determination is made based on the information on the surroundings of the host vehicle whether it is possible to change the lane of the merging.
 次に、実施例2の分岐車線変更と同様、車両通行帯線を通過して合流するため、地図情報の道路形状から車線変更可能範囲506の位置を認識し、その上を通過するように仮想白線505を生成する。 Next, as in the case of the branch lane change of the second embodiment, the vehicle passes through the vehicle lane and merges. Therefore, the position of the lane changeable range 506 is recognized from the road shape of the map information, and the virtual lane is changed so as to pass over it. A white line 505 is generated.
 前記生成した仮想白線505と走行路A502の実白線504を接続し、LKASを維持(LKASランプ点灯)したまま、車両通行帯線を跨いで合流の車線変更を行うことができる。 The generated virtual white line 505 and the actual white line 504 of the travel route A502 are connected, and the lane of the merge can be changed across the vehicle traffic lane while maintaining the LKAS (LKAS lamp is lit).
[実施例3]
 次に、道路区画線外を通過する場合の実施例3を、図6にて説明する。
[Example 3]
Next, Embodiment 3 in the case of passing outside the road lane marking will be described with reference to FIG.
 この実施例3も前記実施例1、2と同様、本発明の車線変更制御装置を搭載した車両である。 The third embodiment is also a vehicle equipped with the lane change control device of the present invention, as in the first and second embodiments.
 この実施例は、自動運転車603が、走行路A601から分岐路602へ分岐の車線変更を行おうとしているが、分岐路602および本線に渋滞列604があり、渋滞末尾車605は道路区画線外に停車しており、その渋滞末尾車605の後ろへ走行しなくてはいけない場合である。 In this embodiment, the autonomous driving vehicle 603 is going to change the lane of the branch from the travel route A601 to the branch road 602. However, there is a traffic jam column 604 on the branch road 602 and the main line, and the traffic jam end car 605 is a road lane line. This is a case where the vehicle stops outside and must travel behind the traffic jam end vehicle 605.
 先ず、自動運転車603は、左側ウインカ点滅により分岐の車線変更を検知する。 First, the self-driving vehicle 603 detects a branch lane change by blinking the left turn signal.
 次に、路側通信装置104の情報から、分岐路602の渋滞列604および渋滞末尾車605の位置を検知し、道路区画線外への走行が必要なことを認識する。 Next, from the information of the roadside communication device 104, the positions of the traffic jam row 604 and the traffic jam end vehicle 605 on the branch road 602 are detected to recognize that it is necessary to travel outside the road line.
 次に、仮想白線606を生成するが、渋滞末尾車605の位置を通過するように仮想白線606を生成し、この仮想白線606と実白線607を接続し、LKASの制御白線とする。 Next, the virtual white line 606 is generated, but the virtual white line 606 is generated so as to pass through the position of the traffic jam end car 605, and the virtual white line 606 and the real white line 607 are connected to be the control white line of LKAS.
 この渋滞末尾車605の位置を通過させる仮想白線606を生成するとき、路側通信装置104からの渋滞末尾車605の位置と高精度地図装置103からの路側帯幅を得て、渋滞末尾車605の位置に仮想白線を生成しても路側帯を超えてしまわないか、実際に走行可能かを判断し、走行可能であれば仮想白線606を生成する。 When generating the virtual white line 606 that passes through the position of the traffic jam end car 605, the position of the traffic jam end car 605 from the roadside communication device 104 and the roadside band width from the high-precision map device 103 are obtained. It is determined whether or not the roadside zone is exceeded even if a virtual white line is generated at the position, and whether or not the vehicle can actually travel is determined.
 これにより、区画線外である渋滞末尾車605の後ろへ誘導するような走行を行う場合にも、LKASを維持(LKASランプ点灯)したまま車線変更できる。 This allows you to change lanes while maintaining LKAS (LKAS lamp is lit) even when driving to the rear of traffic jam end car 605 outside the lane line.
 渋滞末尾車605の後ろを通過する仮想白線を生成できないときは、運転者へLKASを維持したまま自動車線変更ができないことを通知する。 When the virtual white line that passes behind the traffic ending car 605 cannot be generated, the driver is notified that the lane cannot be changed while maintaining the LKAS.
 なお、自動運転車603は、渋滞末尾車605の後ろで、定速走行・車間距離制御装置(ACC)116の前走車検知または前方障害物検知による自動ブレーキにて停車する。 It should be noted that the autonomous driving vehicle 603 stops behind the traffic jam end vehicle 605 by automatic braking based on detection of a preceding vehicle or detection of a front obstacle by a constant speed traveling / inter-vehicle distance control device (ACC) 116.
