*** Explanation of operation ***
The operation of the elevator control device 100 corresponds to an elevator control method. The procedure of the elevator control method corresponds to the procedure of the elevator control program.

The elevator control method will be described based on FIG.
The elevator control method includes processes from step S100 to step S400.
These processes are executed each time the position of the subject 201 is detected by the position detection device 220.

Step S100 is an action specifying process.
In step S <b> 100, the action specifying unit 110 specifies the action of the target person 201.
And the action specific | specification part 110 produces | generates the action information which shows the subject's 201 action.
Details of the action specifying process (S100) will be described later.

Step S200 is a state specifying process.
In step S <b> 200, the state specifying unit 120 specifies the state of the elevator car 210.
Then, the state specifying unit 120 generates state information indicating the state of the elevator car 210.
Details of the state specifying process (S200) will be described later.

Step S300 is a control determination process.
In step S300, the control determination part 130 determines the control content with respect to the elevator car 210 using action information and state information.
Details of the control determination process (S300) will be described later.

Step S400 is a control process.
In step S400, control unit 140 controls elevator car 210 according to the determined control content. The method of controlling the elevator car 210 is the same as the conventional method.

The details of the action specifying process (S100) will be described based on FIG.
In step S <b> 101, the reception unit 193 receives the position detection signal 221 output from the position detection device 220.
And the action specific | specification part 110 acquires position detection information from the received position detection signal 221. FIG.

The position detection information includes a target identifier, a detection time, and position information.
The target identifier is an identifier for identifying the target person 201 and is assigned to each target person 201 by the position detection device 220.
The detection time is the time when the subject 201 is detected.
The position information is information indicating the position of the target person 201.

In step S <b> 102, the action specifying unit 110 registers the acquired position detection information in the position history file 310.
The position history file 310 is data stored in the storage unit 191.

The position history file 310 will be described with reference to FIG.
The location history file 310 includes one or more location history records 311. One line in the figure corresponds to the position history record 311.
In the position history record 311, a target identifier, a detection time, and position information are associated with each other. Specific position information is a three-dimensional coordinate value.

Returning to FIG. 4, the description of step S102 will be continued.
Specifically, the action specifying unit 110 registers the position detection information in the position history file 310 as follows.
First, the action specifying unit 110 generates a position history record 311 in which a target identifier, detection time, and position information included in the position detection information are set.
Then, the action specifying unit 110 registers the generated position history record 311 in the position history file 310.

In step S <b> 103, the action specifying unit 110 determines whether past information is registered in the position history file 310.
The past information is past position detection information. Specifically, the past information is position detection information including a detection time N seconds or more before the detection time included in the current position detection information. N seconds is a predetermined number of seconds.

Specifically, the action specifying unit 110 determines as follows.
First, the action specifying unit 110 calculates a threshold time using the current position detection information. The threshold time is a time N seconds before the detection time included in the current position detection information.
Next, the behavior specifying unit 110 extracts a position history record 311 including the same target identifier as the target identifier included in the current position detection information from the position history file 310.
Next, the action specifying unit 110 selects the position history record 311 including the oldest detection time from the extracted position history record 311.
Then, the behavior specifying unit 110 compares the detection time included in the selected position history record 311 with the threshold time.
When the detection time is a time before the threshold time, the action specifying unit 110 determines that past information is registered in the position history file 310.

If past information is registered in the position history file 310, the process proceeds to step S105.
If past information is not registered in the position history file 310, the process proceeds to step S104.

In step S104, the action specifying unit 110 generates action information indicating other, and stores the generated action information in the storage unit 191.
After step S104, the action specifying process (S100) ends.

In step S <b> 105, the action specifying unit 110 acquires one piece of past information from the position history file 310.
Specifically, the action specifying unit 110 selects the position history record 311 including the detection time closest to the threshold time from the position history record 311 extracted in S103. Then, the action specifying unit 110 acquires the position detection information included in the selected position history record 311 as past information.

In step S110, the action specifying unit 110 calculates the approach distance, the moving angle, and the moving speed using the position detection information acquired in step S101 and the past information acquired in step S105.

The approach distance R, the movement angle θ, and the movement speed V will be described with reference to FIG.
Approach distance R is the distance from the point _{P 0} to the point _{P 1.}
Point P ₀ is the position of the entrance 203. A boarding gate 203 is where the elevator car 210 arrives in the elevator hall 202. Specifically, the boarding gate 203 is a door that opens and closes in conjunction with the door of the elevator car 210.
The point P ₁ is the current position of the subject 201.

The action specifying unit 110 calculates the approach distance R using the coordinate value of the point P _{0 and} the coordinate value of the point P ₁ .
The coordinate value of the point P ₀ is stored in the storage unit 191 in advance.
Coordinate value of the point P ₁ is the position information of the position detection information acquired in step S101.

Movement angle θ is the angle between the straight line L ₁ and the straight line L _N.
Lines _{L 1} is a line segment connecting the point _{P 0} and the point _{P 1.}
Linear _{L N} is the line segment connecting the point _{P 0} and the point _{P N.}
The point _PN is the position of the subject 201 in the past.

The action specifying unit 110 calculates the movement angle θ as follows.
First, the action specifying unit 110 calculates the straight line L ₁ using the coordinate value of the point P _{0 and} the coordinate value of the point P ₁ .
Next, action specifying unit 110 uses the coordinate values of the coordinate values of the point _{P 0} and the point _{P N,} calculates a straight line _{L N.} Coordinate value of the point P _N is the position information of the past information acquired in step S105.
Then, the behavior identification unit 110, by using the straight line _{L 1} and the straight line _{L N,} to calculate a movement angle theta.

Velocity V is the velocity of the subject 201 that has moved from the point _{P N} to point _{P 1.}

The action specifying unit 110 calculates the movement speed V as follows.
First, the behavior identification unit 110 uses the coordinate values of the coordinate values and the point P ₁ point P _N, and calculates the movement distance. Travel distance is the distance from the point _{P N} to the point _{P 1.}
Next, behavior identification unit 110, by using the detection time of the detection time point P ₁ and point P _N, calculates the travel time. Travel time is the time from the detection time point P ₁ to the detection time point P _N. Detection time point P ₁ is the detection time in the position detection information acquired in step S101. The detection time of the point _{PN is} the detection time in the past information acquired in step S105.
And the action specific | specification part 110 calculates the moving speed V using a moving distance and moving time. The moving speed V is a speed obtained by dividing the moving distance by the moving time.

Returning to FIG. 4, the description will be continued from step S120.
Step S120 is a behavior determination process.
In step S120, the action specifying unit 110 determines the action of the target person 201 using the distance, the angle, and the speed.

Based on FIG. 7, the details of the action determination process (S120) will be described.
In step S <b> 121, the action specifying unit 110 determines whether the action of the subject 201 is approaching quickly using the approach distance, the moving angle, and the moving speed.
The fast approach is an approach at a speed faster than the threshold speed.
The approach is an action that approaches the boarding port 203.

Specifically, when the approach distance is shorter than the threshold distance, the moving angle is smaller than the threshold angle, and the moving speed is faster than the threshold speed, the action specifying unit 110 indicates that the action of the subject 201 is approaching quickly. Is determined.
The threshold distance, the threshold angle, and the threshold speed are predetermined values.

If the action of the subject 201 is approaching quickly, the process proceeds to step S122.
When the action of the subject 201 is not approaching quickly, the process proceeds to step S123.

FIG. 8 shows an outline of approaching quickly.
8 shows a change in the approach distance R, FIG. 8B shows a change in the movement angle θ, and FIG. 8C shows a change in the movement speed V. (4) in FIG. 8 shows the route of the subject 201.
When the subject 201 approaches the boarding port 203, the approach distance R and the movement angle θ decrease. At time t, the approach distance R is not more than the threshold distance, and the movement angle θ is not more than the threshold angle. At time t, the moving speed V is equal to or higher than the threshold value.
The approach distance R being equal to or less than the threshold distance means that the subject 201 is near the boarding gate 203.
The movement angle θ being equal to or less than the threshold angle means that the subject 201 is moving toward the boarding port 203.
That the moving speed V is equal to or higher than the threshold speed means that the subject 201 is moving quickly.
At time t, the approach distance R, the moving angle θ, and the moving speed V satisfy the fast approach approach condition, so the action of the subject 201 is a fast approach approach.

FIG. 9 shows an outline of passing quickly.
The quick pass is a pass at a speed faster than the threshold speed, and is included in other actions. Other actions are actions other than quick approach, normal approach, stop and leave.
(1) in FIG. 9 shows a change in the approach distance R, (2) in FIG. 9 shows a change in the moving angle θ, and (3) in FIG. 9 shows a change in the moving speed V. (4) in FIG. 9 shows the route of the subject 201.
The approach distance R decreases until the subject 201 comes in front of the boarding port 203. However, when the subject 201 passes in front of the entrance 203, the approach distance R increases because the subject 201 leaves the entrance 203.
Since the subject 201 does not move toward the boarding port 203, the movement angle θ increases until the subject 201 passes in front of the boarding port 203, and when the subject 201 passes in front of the boarding port 203, the movement angle. θ decreases.
Moreover, since the subject 201 is moving quickly, the moving speed V is equal to or higher than the threshold speed.
At time t, the approaching distance R and the moving speed V satisfy the fast approach approach condition, but the movement angle θ does not satisfy the fast approach approach condition, so the action of the subject 201 is not a fast approach approach.

In step S122, the action specifying unit 110 generates action information indicating rapid approach, and stores the generated action information in the storage unit 191.
After step S122, the action determination process (S120) ends.

In step S123, the action specifying unit 110 determines whether the action of the subject 201 is normal approach using the approach distance and the movement angle.
The normal approach is an approach at a speed slower than the threshold speed.

Specifically, when the approach distance is shorter than the threshold distance and the movement angle is smaller than the threshold angle, the action specifying unit 110 determines that the action of the target person 201 is a normal approach.

When the action of the subject 201 is normal approach, the process proceeds to step S124.
If the action of the subject 201 is not normally approaching, the process proceeds to step S125.

In step S <b> 124, the behavior specifying unit 110 generates behavior information indicating normal approach, and stores the generated behavior information in the storage unit 191.
After step S124, the action determination process (S120) ends.

In step S125, the action specifying unit 110 determines whether the action of the target person 201 is stopped using the approach distance and the moving speed.
The stop is an action of stopping in front of the boarding gate 203.

Specifically, when the approach distance is shorter than the threshold distance and the stop time is longer than the threshold time, the action specifying unit 110 determines that the action of the subject 201 is stop.
The stop time is a time during which the stop has been continued. This stop includes slow movement. That is, the stop means that the moving speed is slower than the threshold speed.
The threshold time is a predetermined length of time.

If the action of the subject 201 is stationary, the process proceeds to step S126.
If the action of the subject 201 is not a stop, the process proceeds to step S127.

In step S <b> 126, the behavior specifying unit 110 generates behavior information indicating a stop and stores the generated behavior information in the storage unit 191.
After step S126, the action determination process (S120) ends.

In step S127, the action specifying unit 110 determines whether the action of the target person 201 is left using the moving distance and the intention information.
Leaving is an action of leaving from the entrance 203.
The intention information is information indicating whether or not the subject 201 has an intention to get on the elevator car 210, and is registered in the boarding intention list 320.

The boarding intention list 320 will be described with reference to FIG.
The boarding intention list 320 includes one or more boarding intention data 321. One row in the figure corresponds to the ride intention data 321.
In the boarding intention data 321, the object identifier and the intention information are associated with each other.

Returning to FIG. 7, the description of step S127 is continued.
Specifically, the action specifying unit 110 determines as follows.
First, the action specifying unit 110 selects the boarding intention data 321 including the same target identifier as the target identifier included in the position detection information acquired in step S101 from the boarding intention list 320.
Next, the action specifying unit 110 acquires intention information from the selected boarding intention data 321.
Then, when the intention information indicates that there is an intention to get on and the moving distance is longer than the threshold distance, the action specifying unit 110 determines that the action of the subject 201 is left.

If the action of the subject 201 is away, the process proceeds to step S128.
If the action of the subject 201 is not gone, the process proceeds to step S129.

In step S128, the action specifying unit 110 generates action information indicating leaving, and stores the generated action information in the storage unit 191.
After step S128, the action determination process (S120) ends.

In step S129, the behavior specifying unit 110 generates behavior information indicating other, and stores the generated behavior information in the storage unit 191.
After step S129, the action determination process (S120) ends.

The details of the state specifying process (S200) will be described based on FIG.
In step S210, the state specifying unit 120 generates a car information request. The car information request is data including a command for requesting car information.
The transmission unit 194 transmits a car information request to the signal acquisition device 230.
The signal acquisition device 230 receives the car information request, acquires the car signal 231 from the elevator car 210, and transmits the car signal 231 to the elevator control device 100.
The receiving unit 193 receives the car signal 231.
Then, the state specifying unit 120 acquires car information from the received car signal 231.

The car information includes traveling information, position information, and opening / closing information.
The traveling information is information indicating whether the vehicle is traveling or stopped.
The position information is information indicating the position of the elevator car 210.
The opening / closing information is information indicating the state of the door of the elevator car 210.

In step S211, the state specifying unit 120 determines whether the state of the elevator car 210 is traveling using the traveling information and the position information.
Specifically, when the traveling information indicates that the vehicle is traveling, the state specifying unit 120 determines that the state of the elevator car 210 is traveling. Further, when the traveling information indicates that the vehicle is stopped and the position information indicates a floor other than the target floor, the state specifying unit 120 determines that the state of the elevator car 210 is traveling. The target floor is a floor where the target person 201 exists.
If the state of the elevator car 210 is traveling, the process proceeds to step S212.
When the state of the elevator car 210 is not traveling, the process proceeds to step S213.

In step S212, the state specifying unit 120 generates state information indicating that the vehicle is running, and stores the generated state information in the storage unit 191.
During traveling, the elevator car 210 is traveling, or the elevator car 210 is stopped on a floor other than the target floor.
After step S212, the state specifying process (S200) ends.

In step S213, the state specifying unit 120 determines whether the state of the elevator car 210 is closed using the opening / closing information.
Specifically, when the opening / closing information indicates door closing, the state specifying unit 120 determines that the state of the elevator car 210 is door closing.
When the state of the elevator car 210 is closed, the process proceeds to step S214.
If the elevator car 210 is not closed, the process proceeds to step S215.

In step S214, the state specifying unit 120 generates state information indicating door closing, and stores the generated state information in the storage unit 191.
The door closing is a state in which the door of the elevator car 210 is closed.
After step S214, the state specifying process (S200) ends.

In step S215, the state specifying unit 120 determines whether the state of the elevator car 210 is open using the opening / closing information.
Specifically, when the opening / closing information indicates that the door is open, the state specifying unit 120 determines that the state of the elevator car 210 is open.
If the state of the elevator car 210 is open, the process proceeds to step S216.
When the state of the elevator car 210 is not open, the process proceeds to step S217.

In step S <b> 216, the state specifying unit 120 generates state information indicating that the door is open, and stores the generated state information in the storage unit 191.
While the door is open, the elevator car 210 is in the middle of opening.
After step S216, the state specifying process (S200) ends.

In step S217, the state specifying unit 120 determines whether the state of the elevator car 210 is door open using the opening / closing information.
Specifically, when the opening / closing information indicates door opening, the state specifying unit 120 determines that the state of the elevator car 210 is door opening.
When the state of the elevator car 210 is the door open, the process proceeds to step S218.
If the elevator car 210 is not open, the process proceeds to step S219.

In step S218, the state specifying unit 120 generates state information indicating door opening, and stores the generated state information in the storage unit 191.
Door open is a state in which the door of the elevator car 210 is open.

Specifically, the control determination unit 130 acquires intention information corresponding to a combination of an action indicated by the action information and a state indicated by the state information from the boarding intention table 330.

The boarding intention table 330 will be described with reference to FIG.
In the boarding intention table 330, intention information is associated with a set of action and state.
The intention information indicates that there is a boarding intention, no boarding intention, or no change.
The intention to get on means that the subject 201 has an intention to get on the elevator car 210.
No intention to get on means that the subject 201 has no intention to get on the elevator car 210.
No change means that there is no change in the presence or absence of the subject 201's intention to board since the previous time when the location of the subject 201 was detected.

Returning to FIG. 12, the description will be continued from step S302.
In step S <b> 302, the control determination unit 130 registers intention information indicating the specified boarding intention in the boarding intention list 320.

Specifically, the control determination unit 130 operates as follows.
First, the control determination unit 130 acquires a target identifier included in the position detection information acquired in step S101.
Next, the control determination unit 130 determines whether the boarding intention data 321 including the same target identifier as the acquired target identifier is included in the boarding intention list 320.
When the boarding intention data 321 is included in the boarding intention data list 320, the control determination unit 130 updates the intention information contained in the boarding intention data 321 with the intention information acquired in step S301.
When the boarding intention data 321 is not included in the boarding intention data 320, the control determination unit 130 generates boarding intention data 321 including the acquired target identifier and the intention information acquired in step S301. Then, the control determination unit 130 adds the generated boarding intention data 321 to the boarding intention list 320.

In step S303, the control determination unit 130 determines the control content for the elevator car 210 using the behavior information generated in the behavior specifying process (S100) and the state information generated in the state specifying process (S200). .

The control content table 340 will be described based on FIG.
In the control content table 340, the control content is associated with a set of action and state.
The contents of control are landing call, cancellation of landing call, door opening control, extension control, door closing control or no control.
The hall call is a control for calling the elevator car 210 to the elevator hall 202.
The cancellation of the hall call is a control for deleting the registration of the hall call when the hall call is registered in the elevator car 210.
The door opening control is a control for opening the door of the elevator car 210.
The extension control is a control for extending the time for maintaining the door open.
The door closing control is a control for closing the door of the elevator car 210.
No control means that no new control is required for the elevator car 210.

That is, the control determination unit 130 determines the control content as follows.
When the behavior information indicates one of normal approach, fast approach, and stop, and the state information indicates either traveling or door closing, the control determination unit 130 sets the hall call as the control content.
When the behavior information indicates leaving and the state information indicates either traveling or door-closed, the control determination unit 130 sets release of the hall call as control content.
When the behavior information indicates one of normal approach, fast approach, and stop, and the state information indicates that the door is open, the control determination unit 130 sets the extension control as the control content.
When the behavior information indicates leaving and the state information indicates that the door is being opened, the control determination unit 130 sets the door closing control as the control content.
When the behavior information indicates either normal approach or rapid approach, and the state information indicates door open, the control determination unit 130 sets the extension control as the control content.
When the behavior information indicates either stopping or leaving, and the state information indicates door opening, the control determination unit 130 sets the door closing control as the control content.
When the behavior information indicates one of normal approach, stop, and leave, and the state information indicates that the door is closed, the control determination unit 130 sets the door closing control as the control content.
When the action information indicates fast approach and the state information indicates that the door is closed, the control determination unit 130 sets the door opening control to the control content.
When the behavior information indicates other, the control determination unit 130 sets “no control” as the control content regardless of the state indicated by the state information.
