<構成例1>
図3に、制御装置100の構成例1を示す。構成例1は、NW利用形態の最終決定権限がNW利用形態判定部160にある場合の構成例である。構成例1は、NW利用形態判定結果に含まれるNW利用形態候補が1つである場合の例である。
該当する端末識別子(EID)、及び最新のNMEAを参照し、デバイスがどの領域にいるか(場所をマス目で区切るイメージ)、及び、現在時刻はどの時間区分に属するか(早朝、昼間、夜間、深夜などのイメージ))を判定する。
該当領域の過去履歴(NW利用形態、映像送信設定、受信結果のセット)を参照し、受信結果がOKとなっているセットの中で最も受信結果が良いものかつNW利用が最小のNW利用形態を選択する。用語の定義は後述する。
選択したNW利用形態(例:NW-AとNW-B)に含まれるNWの品質予測結果を参照し、各NWの品質が既定の品質(例:予め定めた帯域、選択したNW利用形態における過去に設定した映像送信設定のビットレート)を下回っていないか確認し、下回っていればS2に戻って次点のNW利用形態を選択し、以後繰り返す。
NW利用形態判定結果(例:利用/ボンディングするNW、NW毎の利用優先度、設定する上限帯域)を確定する。なお、「ボンディング」とは複数のNWを利用することである。
図4に、制御装置100の構成例2を示す。構成例2は、NW利用形態の最終決定権限が情報設定判定部170にある場合の構成例である。構成例2は、NW利用形態判定結果に含まれるNW利用形態候補が複数ある場合の例である。
以下、図3に示した構成例1を例にとって、機能分類等を説明する。図5に示すように、制御装置100は、「NW品質予測部130、情報品質予測部140、NW利用形態判定部160、情報設定判定部170、NW利用形態設定部180、情報設定部190」を有する制御機能、及び、「NW品質計測部110、情報品質計測部120、記憶部150」を有する、情報伝送要件を含む過去/現在/未来に関する情報取得およびデータベースの機能に分類することができる。
次に、構成例1(図3)と、構成例2(図4)のそれぞれについて、制御装置100における動作シーケンスを説明する。
まず、図10を参照して、構成例1におけるシーケンスを説明する。前述したとおり、構成例1は、「NW利用形態」の最終決定権限が「NW利用形態判定部160」にある形態である。
次に、図11を参照して、構成例2におけるシーケンスを説明する。前述したとおり、構成例2は、「NW利用形態」の最終決定権限が「情報設定判定部170」にある形態である。図11のS201~S208は、図10のS101~S108と同じである。S208以降の処理を説明する。
NW利用形態判定及び情報設定判定についてのフロー例を説明する。ここでは、制御対象の「情報」は映像であるものとする。
実施例1では、NW品質予測部130が、あるデバイス(例:情報送信装置10)について、デバイス位置、受信信号強度(例:送信側の受信強度)、及びNW品質計測結果(例:受信側で測定した品質)から、NW品質を予測し、NW利用形態判定部160が、その予測結果に基づいて、NW利用形態を判定する。なお、NW利用形態の判定対象が情報送信装置10であることは、以降の実施例でも同様である。
次に、実施例2を説明する。実施例2では、あるデバイス(例:情報送信装置10及び情報生成装置30)について、NW品質計測部110/NW品質予測部130によるNW品質計測/予測結果と、情報品質計測部120/情報品質予測部140による情報品質計測/予測結果とから、NW利用形態判定部160/情報設定判定部170が、NW利用形態/情報設定を判定する。
次に、実施例3を説明する。実施例3では、記憶部150で管理している情報に基づいて判定ロジックを高精度化する例である。
次に、実施例4を説明する。実施例4では、マルチアクセスNWの使い分けをNW毎の利用「優先度」に落とし込んで実施する例を説明する。
(2)既定の形態(デフォルト設定の形態)での情報伝送
(3)情報生成装置30が情報を再構成(情報生成装置30の伝送要求を情報送信装置10が棄却/返却)
(4)ユーザ/事業者にアラート通知
(実施例5)
次に、図23を参照して実施例5を説明する。実施例5は、処理のロジックとしては実施例4と同じであるが、優先度の値が異なる。つまり、実施例5では、通常は全てのパケットをNW-A以外のNW経由で送信する。各表で示すその割合は一例である。ここでは、NW-A側リソース効率化/経済合理性を重視しており、利用NWの品質低下やパケット冗長化要求に応じてNW―Aを利用する。
次に、図24を参照して実施例6を説明する。実施例6も、マルチアクセスNWの使い分けをNW毎の利用「優先度」に落とし込んで実施する例である。ただし、実施例6での「優先度」は、サービス利用者側(農業事業者などのリソース利用者)から見た優先度である。
例1では、利用割合のみで制御する。この場合、利用割合を「50%:36%:14%」とすると、14個のフレームにおける各NWで送信するフレーム数は下記のとおりである。
NW-B(36%)=5
NW-C(14%)=2
例1の制御は、例えば、NW利用形態設定部180から情報送信装置10に対して利用割合を通知することで実現できる。
例2では、決定した利用割合に基づいて、図26に示すような情報を作成し、NW利用形態設定部180から情報送信装置10に通知する。
次に、実施例7を説明する。実施例7では、基地局配備状況に応じて無線アクセスNWの利用「優先度」を変動させる例を説明する。ここでは特に品質重視のポリシーで運用する場合の例を説明する。なお、実施例7及び8において、優先度/利用割合を変動させること(優先度/利用割合を決定する)ことは、NW利用形態判定部160が行ってもよいし、その他の機能部が行ってもよい。
次に、実施例8を説明する。実施例8では、NW利用契約の容量消費状況に応じて無線アクセスNWの利用「優先度」を変動させる例を説明する。
本実施の形態に係る制御装置100において、下記の<例1>~<例10>に記載した動作を行うことも可能である。下記の動作は、制御装置100における、予測部、計測部、判定部、設定部のいずれが行ってもよい。
制御装置100は、デバイス位置に関して、過去の移動履歴、現在の周辺環境状況(イベント情報、信号機の状態、道路工事予定等)、運行計画、デバイス特性のうちのいずれか1つ又は複数から高精度に未来位置を予測する。またそれをベースにNW品質や映像等情報品質を予測し、NW利用形態を判定する。それに加えて映像等情報設定を判定・設定してもよい。
制御装置100は、デバイス状況(位置、周辺環境など)、NW品質(帯域、遅延など)、映像等情報品質(MDI、VMAF、ビットレート、MOS値など)の変動履歴を参照してNW品質や映像等情報品質を予測して、設定を判定する際に、これまでの予測結果(又は設定結果)と計測結果との差がx%(例:5%)以下であれば予測結果に1に近い大きな係数(例:1-x/100)をかけ、y%(例:20%)以上であれば予測結果に0に近い小さな係数(例:1-2y/100)をかけた値を予測値として参照し、判定結果に反映する。これにより、映像等の情報の想定しない品質劣化を回避することができる。
制御装置100は、未来予測に関してはその予測に信頼度/確度を設定し、信頼度を係数化あるいは閾値として判定時に活用することとしてもよい。例えば、信頼度を係数に変換して予測値にかける、ある信頼度を下回った場合は特別に低い係数をかける、あるいは0として扱うようにする。
制御装置100は、ユーザ要望として考えられるコストミニマムな判定だけではなく、無線アクセスNWやサーバリソースを提供する側の対応方針や課金ポリシーに基づいて判定ロジックを設定してもよい。例えば、ミッションクリティカル性を重視してバッファを設けてリソースを提供すること、従量課金制のリソースを優先的に利用すること、などを実行してもよい。
制御装置100は、事前測定や固定ルールに基づく判定ロジックによる設定だけではなく、機械学習的なアプローチ/AIの活用により設定機構自体を動的に変動させることで、より柔軟な設定を行うこととしてもよい。
制御装置100は、NW利用形態の判定結果が突発的な状況変化などにより適用できない事態を想定し、判定段階で第2、第3の判定結果を抽出しておき、適用不可の事象発生をトリガとして第2あるいは第3の判定結果を適用することとしてもよい。
制御装置100において、上記NW利用形態の判定結果が突発的な状況変化などにより適用できない事態をNW利用形態設定部180が検知し、NW利用形態判定部160に通知すると同時に、予め規定されたフェールセーフ機構を臨時適用する、あるいは予め通知されている第2、第3の判定結果の適用を試みることとしてもよい。
制御装置100は、ある一定期間の情報伝送総量と伝送に使用するNWのビット単価/料金体系からコスト最安のNW利用形態(NW切替/ボンディングのタイミングや方法を含む)を判定してそれを適用してもよい。また、伝送品質向上やコスト低減の目的に応じて推奨するNW利用形態の選択肢をユーザ等に提示し、選択結果に基づいてNW利用形態を選択/適用することとしてもよい。
制御装置100は、NW利用形態判定結果、映像等の情報設定の判定結果、各種計測/予測値のうちのいずれか又は複数を、映像等の情報の伝送に関わるシステム以外の(例えばデバイス制御などの)他の協調動作/制御機能に活用してもよい。また判定結果等を活用する際に未来予測に関してはその予測の信頼度/確度も合わせて通知してもよい。
制御装置100は、参照するNW状況の具体例として無線基地局の混雑状況(および混雑見込み)を活用してもよい。またそれらと電波伝搬環境等デバイス状況、あるいは実際のNW品質との相関を分析し、NW品質予測およびNW利用形態判定に反映してもよい。
本実施の形態に係る技術は、図31に示すように、自動運転車等の自動的に走行する移動体(以下、移動体Aと記述する)にも適用可能である。当該移動体Aは、自動車であってもよいし、農機であってもよいし、ショベルカー等の工事車両であってもよいし、これら以外のものであってもよい。また、移動体Aを「デバイス」と呼んでもよい。
NW品質が劣化すると、移動体Aから移動体制御部Bへ送信される映像が劣化して、移動体制御部Bが、移動体Aに対する制御を適切に行えない可能性が生じる。映像の劣化には、例えば、NWの帯域(スループット)減少により、映像が止まってしまうことなどが含まれる。
「S1での制御のみでは、NW品質が閾値よりも劣化したままであるとき、あるいは、移動体制御部Bが受信する映像の品質に問題があるとき(映像が断続的に途切れてしまう等)」(実際の測定値に基づく判断)、又は、「S1での制御のみでは、NW品質が閾値よりも劣化したままであると予測されるとき、あるいは、移動体制御部Bが受信する映像の品質に問題が生じることが予測されるとき」(例えば1秒後の予測値に基づく判断)、情報判定部170は、例えば、カメラ3Aの映像品質(例:解像度、フレームレート)を低下させる決定を行い、決定後の設定情報を情報設定部190からカメラ3Aへ設定する。上記の映像品質低下の設定を行う際には、例えば、1回の低下設定において、予め定めた幅(例:フレームレートを30FPSから10FPSへ変更)だけ低下させることとしてもよい。
「S1及びS2での制御のみでは、NW品質が閾値よりも劣化したままであるとき、あるいは、移動体制御部Bが受信する映像の品質に問題があるとき」(実際の測定値に基づく判断)、又は、「S1及びS2での制御のみでは、NW品質が閾値よりも劣化したままであると予測されるとき、あるいは、移動体制御部Bが受信する映像の品質に問題が生じることが予測されるとき」(例えば1秒後の予測値に基づく判断)、移動体制御部Bは、移動体Aの自動運転部2Aに対して、十分な映像が得られなくても安全を確保できるように、速度の低下、経路変更、あるいは、停止等を指示する。
続いて、第2実施形態を説明する。第2実施形態は、第1実施形態に対して、協調制御の対象として、NWのQoS(Quality of Service)制御レベルを追加するものである。この点を除き、第1実施形態と第2実施形態は同じである。第2実施形態においては、第1実施形態で説明したいずれの構成及び動作においても、NWのQoS制御レベルを制御対象とすることができる。QoS制御レベルに対する制御方法に関しては、特定の方法に限定されるわけではなく、動的制御であってもよいし、静的制御であってもよい。
第1実施形態において説明したとおり、構成例2は、NW利用形態判定結果に含まれるNW利用形態候補が複数ある場合の例である。第2実施形態においても、図3の構成例1と図4の構成例2において、存在する機能部は同じである。図3の構成例1と異なる主な点を説明する。なお、NW利用形態判定結果に含まれるNW利用形態候補が複数ある場合であっても、構成例1での処理を行うこととしてもよい。
実施例2-1では、NW品質予測部130が、あるデバイス(情報送信装置10)について、時刻、デバイス位置、NW品質計測結果(例:受信側で測定した品質)から、NW品質を予測し、NW利用形態判定部160が、その予測結果に基づいて、当該デバイスのNW利用形態を判定する。つまり、実施例2-1ではプロアクティブ制御の例を説明する。
続いて、実施例2-2を説明する。実施例2-2では、NW利用形態判定部160が、あるデバイス(情報送信装置10)について、時刻、デバイス位置、NW品質計測結果(例:受信側で測定した品質)から、NW利用形態を変更する例を説明する。つまり、実施例2-2ではリアクティブ制御の例を説明する。
第1実施形態及び第2実施形態で説明した制御装置100は、例えば、コンピュータに、本実施の形態で説明する処理内容を記述したプログラムを実行させることにより実現可能である。このコンピュータは、物理的なコンピュータであってもよいし、クラウド上の仮想マシンであってもよい。
本実施の形態に係る技術により、情報伝送方法をプロアクティブかつリアクティブに制御することが可能となる。すなわち、過去履歴を踏まえた現在状況の分析に基づくリアクティブ制御の高精度化および過去/現在の分析と予定/計画を踏まえた未来予測に基づくプロアクティブ制御の高精度化が実現される。
