Description

驾驶控制方法、协同驾驶方法及相关装置
本申请要求在2024年2月28日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为202410225645.9的中国专利申请的优先权,申请名称为“驾驶控制方法、协同驾驶方法及相关装置”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及智能驾驶技术领域,尤其涉及一种驾驶控制方法、协同驾驶方法及相关装置。
背景技术
目前实现智能驾驶的途径主要有两种,一种是单车智能驾驶,另一种是车路协同智能驾驶。在单车智能驾驶方面,以单车智能为核心的智能驾驶技术已经在产品中搭载了L2辅助驾驶功能。但是,单纯依靠车辆自身的传感器检测、信号反馈和执行机构完成指令的单车智能驾驶,对于传感器感知范围外存在的威胁,车辆很难及时规避,造成车辆驾驶的安全性下降。因此,单车智能驾驶在高阶智能驾驶发展的过程中有很大的局限性。而通过车路协同来实现智能驾驶,则可以在单车智能的基础上进一步降低事故风险和概率,也可以更好的演进到高阶智能驾驶。
车路协同的解决方案已经有很多年,并且在车路通信之间也确定了相应的通信标准。但是,目前车路协同的实现成本较高,在实际应用中的实现存在着困难。
发明内容

具体实施方式
下面结合本申请实施例中的附图示例性对本申请实施例进行描述。本申请的说明书和权利要求书及所述附图中的术语“第一”、“第二”、“第三”和“第四”等是用于区别不同对象,而不是用于描述特定顺序。此外,术语“包括”和“具有”以及它们任何变形,意图在于覆盖不排他的包含。例如包含了一系列步骤或单元的过程、方法、系统、产品或设备没有限定于已列出的步骤或单元,而是可选地还包括没有列出的步骤或单元,或可选地还包括对于这些过程、方法、产品或设备固有的其它步骤或单元。在本文中提及“实施例”意味着,结合实施例描述的特定特征、结构或特性可以包含在本申请的至少一个实施例中。在说明书中的各个位置出现该短语并不一定均是指相同的实施例,也不是与其它实施例互斥的独立的或备选的实施例。本领域技术人员显式地和隐式地理解的是,本文所描述的实施例可以与其它实施例相结合。
在本申请的各个实施例中,一方面具有相互独立性,即实施例之间不会互相限制和约束。另一方面如果没有特殊说明以及逻辑冲突,各个实施例之间的术语和/或描述具有一致性,且可以相互引用。不同的实施例中的技术特征根据其内在的逻辑关系可以组合形成新的实施例。
下面结合附图对本申请实施例进行示例性介绍。
首先介绍本申请实施例所要解决的技术问题。现有的实现方案中,为了在单车智能的基础上进一步降低驾驶事故风险和概率,通过车路协同的方式来获取更多道路环境中的信息,以协助车辆更安全地驾驶。但是,该现有的方案中,一种实现方式是V2X车路协同的方案。该方案中,可以通过在车辆上部署V2X设备(即车载单元(on board unit,OBU))采集自身的车辆信息并通过基本安全消息(basic safety message,BSM)进行广播。路侧设备(即路侧单元(road side unit,RSU))接收到周边车辆的BSM消息后,对周边车辆的运动状态进行相关的交通分析。同时,其他车辆可以对相关的路侧数据进行订阅,选择合适的道路环境,可以缓解交通堵塞,降低事故发生率。但是,这种方案中,为了达到更好的交通信息发布,需要在道路沿线进行大量的RSU设备部署。导致车路协同方案中部署困难,且有着很高的部署成本,难以大规模推广。
现有方案的另一种实现中,会结合车辆的轨迹信息来对车辆进行判断,通过多个路侧RSU设备上的车辆信息形成轨迹信息。并通过路侧RSU设备将这些车辆的轨迹信息发送给其他车辆,为车辆做出更准确的驾驶决策提供依据。但是,该方案主要考虑的是通过多个路侧RSU设备获取到的车辆信息来形成车辆轨迹,从而发送给其他车辆来实现安全驾驶,避免碰撞。这种实现也需要在道路沿线进行大量的RSU设备部署。
根据上述的描述可知,现有的实现方案在实际应用中实现难度大。具体的,从路侧的角度来看,需要在道路中实现连续部署RSU,这造成了非常高的部署成本。从车的角度来看,需要在车端部署OBU相关设备来实现路侧通信,这也加大了购车成本,同时增加了车辆故障点。另外一方面,由于通过RSU和OBU来实现车路通信需要特殊的频谱。通信频谱在不同的国家要求不一样,这也导致车路协同方案在不同的国家实现不一样。并增加了RSU和车辆在不同国家的部署认证要求,从而增加因认证带来的成本开销。
因此,为了解决上述因现有的方案实现成本高,在实际应用中的实现存在着困难的问题,本申请实施例提供了相应的方法及相关装置。
下面首先示例性介绍本申请实施例提供的协同驾驶系统。
请参见图1,图1是本申请实施例提供的一种协同驾驶系统100的结构示意图。该协同驾驶系统100包括云端设备101、车辆102和路侧感知装置103。该车辆102和路侧感知装置103均可以是一个或多个,本申请实施例对此不做限制。
示例性地,该云端设备101例如可以包括云端服务器和/或云端虚拟机等能够实现计算和/或数据处理的设备。或者,该云端设备101例如可以包括服务器集群。该云端设备101可以与该车辆102进行通信,为车辆102提供多种服务。例如,为车辆102提供空中升级(over the air,OTA)服务、高精地图服务、自动驾驶或辅助驾驶服务,以及信息转发服务等。此外,该云端设备101还可以与路侧感知装置103进行通信,为路侧感知装置103提供多种服务。例如,为路侧感知装置103提供信息分析处理服务,或者提供信息转发服务等。
示例性地,车辆102例如可以是道路上行驶的任意类型的车辆。例如小轿车、公交车、货车、消防车、警车、环卫车、混凝土车、半挂车、垃圾车或者叉车等等。该车辆102可以通过辅助驾驶或自动驾驶等智能驾驶技术行驶。车辆102中安装有探测装置,以用于探测感知车辆102周围的环境。示例性地,该探测装置例如可以包括摄像头或雷达等传感器。该雷达例如可以包括超声波雷达、激光雷达、毫米波雷达或微波雷达等各种类型的雷达,本申请实施例对此不做限制。每个探测装置都有自己的探测范围。探测装置可以感知到在该探测范围内的对象。在本申请实施例中,若探测装置无法感知到的某个对象,则认为该对象不在该探测装置的探测范围内。该探测范围也可以称为感知范围。车辆102中安装的一个或多个探测装置的探测范围的叠加即为该车辆102的感知范围。
示例性地,车辆102可以与云端设备101进行交互,以提升智能驾驶功能,从而提升车辆的安全性和出行效率。例如,车辆102可以通过车身上安装的传感装置收集路面信息和周围车辆信息,并将收集到的信息以及自身的驾驶状态信息等上传到云端设备101。车辆102也可以接收来自云端设备101的信息以辅助自身的驾驶。

图4示例性示出了一种驾驶盲区路段为弯道路段的应用场景示意图。可以看到,车辆102的感知范围有限,无法感知到弯道路段中的对象(例如车辆A)。因此,在该弯道路段部署了路侧感知装置103。该路侧感知装置103的感知范围可以覆盖该弯道路段,因此可以感知到弯道路段中的对象(例如车辆A)。可以理解的是,该弯道路段中可以部署有一个或多个路侧感知装置103(图4中所示仅为示例),具体部署的数量本申请实施例不做限制。此外,路侧感知装置103可以部署在该弯道路段的任意一侧,或者可以部署在该弯道路段的两侧,具体根据实际应用部署,本申请实施例对此不做限制。
图5示例性示出了一种驾驶盲区路段为包括路口的路段(简称路口路段)的应用场景示意图。可以看到,车辆102的感知范围有限,无法感知到路口路段中的对象(例如车辆A)。因此,在该路口路段部署了路侧感知装置103。该路侧感知装置103的感知范围可以覆盖该路口路段,因此可以感知到路口路段中的对象(例如车辆A)。可以理解的是,该路口路段中可以部署有一个或多个路侧感知装置103(图5中所示仅为示例),具体部署的数量本申请实施例不做限制。此外,路侧感知装置103可以部署在该路口路段中道路两侧的任意一个位置,具体根据实际应用部署,本申请实施例对此不做限制。
图6示例性示出了一种驾驶盲区路段为包括隧道入口路段的应用场景示意图。可以看到,车辆102的感知范围有限,无法感知到隧道入口路段中的对象(例如静态障碍物A)。因此,在该隧道入口路段部署了路侧感知装置103。该路侧感知装置103的感知范围可以覆盖该隧道入口路段,因此可以感知到隧道入口路段中的对象(例如静态障碍物A)。可以理解的是,该隧道入口路段中可以部署有一个或多个路侧感知装置103(图6中所示仅为示例),具体部署的数量本申请实施例不做限制。此外,路侧感知装置103可以部署在该隧道入口路段中道路两侧的任意一个位置,具体根据实际应用部署,本申请实施例对此不做限制。
图7和图8示例性示出了一种驾驶盲区路段为包括坡顶路段的应用场景示意图。其中,图7所示为车辆102上坡场景下的示意图,图8所示为车辆102下坡场景下的示意图。可以看到,车辆102的感知范围有限,无法感知到坡顶路段中的对象(例如车辆A)。因此,在该坡顶路段部署了路侧感知装置103。该路侧感知装置103的感知范围可以覆盖该坡顶路段,因此可以感知到坡顶路段中的对象(例如车辆A)。可以理解的是,该坡顶路段中可以部署有一个或多个路侧感知装置103(图6中所示仅为示例),具体部署的数量本申请实施例不做限制。此外,路侧感知装置103可以部署在该坡顶路段中道路两侧的任意一个位置,具体根据实际应用部署,本申请实施例对此不做限制。
上述图4至图8所示主要以车辆102在上述驾驶盲区路段上,在另一种实现中,车辆102可以在驾驶盲区路段之外的道路区域行驶。例如车辆102朝着驾驶盲区路段行驶,但还未进入驾驶盲区路段的情况等。
可以理解的是,上述图4至图8所示应用场景仅为示例,不构成对本申请实施例的限制。在具体实现中还可以包括其它的驾驶盲区路段的应用场景,本申请实施例不一一列出。
示例性地,结合上述介绍的协同驾驶系统,下面介绍本申请实施例提供的方法。可以示例性参见图9,该方法可以包括但不限于如下步骤。

示例性地,该路侧感知装置例如可以是上述协同驾驶系统100中的路侧感知装置103。该车辆例如可以是该协同驾驶系统100中的车辆102。该车辆可以是朝着驾驶盲区路段行驶的车辆。该驾驶盲区路段例如可以是上述介绍的驾驶盲区路段中的任意一种,此处不再赘述。该路侧感知装置部署在该驾驶盲区路段上,具体的部署应用场景可以示例性参见上述图4或图8,此处不赘述。示例地,该路侧感知装置可以包括部署在该驾驶盲区路段上的一个或多个感知装置。
在具体实现中,上述路侧感知装置的感知范围可以覆盖上述驾驶盲区路段,从而可以感知到该驾驶盲区路段中的对象(包括上述第一对象,该第一对象例如可以是该驾驶盲区路段中的一个或多个对象)。示例性地,该驾驶盲区路段中的对象可以包括移动的对象和静止的对象。该移动的对象例如包括车辆、行人、动物或任意在该驾驶盲区路段中移动的对象。该静止的对象例如包括该驾驶盲区路段中的土堆、因施工等原因临时拦截的标识牌、因事故导致停止行驶的车辆或其它被放置在道路上的物体等静态障碍物。可以理解的是,此处介绍的对象仅为示例,不构成对本申请实施例的限制。具体实现中还可以包括其它的对象,本申请实施例对此不做限制。
示例性地,一种可能的实施方式中,上述路侧感知装置中的传感器可以对驾驶盲区路段中的对象进行检测获得检测数据。示例性地,若该传感器为摄像头,该检测数据可以是该摄像头拍摄得到的图像数据。或者,示例性地,若该传感器为雷达,该检测数据可以是该雷达探测到的点云数据。即该检测数据为路侧感知装置的原始感知数据。可以理解的是,此处关于检测数据的描述仅为示例,不构成对本申请实施例的限制。
一种可能的实现方式中,上述传感器获得检测数据后,将该检测数据发送给该路侧感知装置中的感知计算单元。由该感知计算单元对该检测数据进行处理和分析。该检测数据包括对该驾驶盲区路段中的上述第一对象检测获得的数据,下面以该第一对象为例介绍。
上述感知计算单元通过对上述检测数据进行分析处理后,可以提取出对该第一对象的位置、移动速度、移动方向、类型(例如是车辆还是行人等)和标识中的一项或多项感知信息。该具体的分析处理方法例如可以是从图像数据或点云数据中提取出对象的感知信息的任意一种或多种方法,本申请实施例对此不做限制。

另一种可能的实现方式中,上述第一信息包括的是上述路侧感知装置对上述第一对象的检测数据,即包括的是对该第一对象的原始感知数据。同理,可选的,该第一信息还可以包括上述传感器的感知置信度信息和/或该第一对象相应的事件信息等。为了便于后续的介绍,可以将该第一信息称为未分析处理的感知信息。这种实现方式的好处是路侧感知装置无需进行信息提取处理,降低路侧感知装置的处理复杂度。
可以理解的是,上述列出的第一信息包括的内容仅为示例,不构成对本申请实施例的限制。
S902、路侧感知装置向云端设备发送该第一信息,第一信息指示在所述车辆无法感知到第一对象的情况下,路侧感知装置对所述第一对象的感知信息。
示例性地,上述路侧感知装置获得上述第一信息后,上述路侧感知装置可以通过通信模块或装置(例如上述CPE等)将该第一信息发送给云端设备。
一种可能的实施方式中,在上述第一对象位于上述车辆的感知范围之外(即车辆无法感知到第一对象)的情况下,上述路侧感知装置向上述云端设备发送上述第一信息。示例性地,这种情况下,车辆和上述第一对象均位于驾驶盲区路段上,因此路侧感知装置可以感知到该车辆。为了便于理解,例如可以示例性地参考前述图4至图8中的任意一个应用场景示意图,该第一对象例如可以是图中的对象A(例如图中的车辆A或静态障碍物A),该车辆可以是图中的车辆102。由于上述车辆位于驾驶盲区路段上,路侧感知装置可以感知到该车辆,并获得对该车辆的感知信息。然后,根据对该车辆的感知信息和上述第一信息可以计算出车辆和第一对象的距离。具体的距离计算方式本申请实施例不做限制。然后,判断该距离的大小。若该距离大于预设的距离的情况下,那么可以确定该第一对象在该车辆的感知范围之外。示例性地,该预设的距离例如可以是该车辆的感知距离或者可以是自定义距离等等。确定该第一对象在该车辆的感知范围之外后,路侧感知装置向上述云端设备发送上述第一信息。从而节省不必要的冗余数据的发送,节省传输带宽。
一种可能的实施方式中,在上述第一对象满足第一条件的情况下,路侧感知装置向上述云端设备发送上述第一信息。示例性地,该第一条件可以包括第一对象和上述车辆的距离小于等于第一预设距离,和/或包括第一对象和上述车辆的碰撞时间((time-to-collision,TTC))小于等于第一预设时长。示例性地,在具体实现中,上述第一对象位于上述车辆的感知范围之外,路侧感知装置也不一定向云端设备发送上述第一信息。而是,第一对象位于上述车辆的感知范围之外,且可能威胁到该车辆的行车安全时(例如第一对象满足上述第一条件时),向上述云端设备发送上述第一信息。
示例性地,上述第一预设距离和/或上述第一预设时长可以是根据实际应用需求设定,本申请实施例对此不做限制。通过这种实现方式,可以进一步节省不必要的冗余数据的发送,节省传输带宽。
一种可能的实现中,上述路侧感知装置可以是按照预设的格式结构将上述第一信息发送给上述云端设备的。例如,路侧感知装置可以是将该第一信息封装成报文或消息的形式发送给云端设备。例如,可以将该第一信息封装成路侧安全消息(roadside safety message,RSM)的形式发送给云端设备。
S903、云端设备获取该第一信息。
上述路侧感知装置向云端设备发送上述第一信息后,云端设备可以接收到该第一信息。
S904、云端设备向车辆发送第二信息,第二信息基于第一信息获得。
云端设备接收到该第一信息,可以根据该第一信息获得第二信息,然后可以向车辆发送该第二信息。
示例性地,一种可能的实现方式中,若该第一信息为上述未分析处理的感知信息,那么云端设备可以对该第一信息中的原始感知数据进行分析处理,提取出上述第一对象的位置、移动速度、移动方向、类型和标识中的一项或多项感知信息。则上述第二信息包括该一项或多项感知信息。或者,也可以直接将该第一信息作为上述第二信息发送给车辆。本申请实施例对此不作限制。
另一种可能的实现方式中,若该第一信息为上述分析处理后的感知信息,那么,云端设备可以将该第一信息作为上述第二信息发送给车辆。或者,可以从该第一信息中选择部分数据发送给车辆。本申请实施例对此不作限制。
一种可能的实施方式中,在上述第一对象满足第二条件的情况下,上述云端设备向上述车辆发送上述第二信息。该第二条件包括上述第一对象和上述车辆的距离小于等于第二预设距离,和/或包括上述第一对象和上述车辆的碰撞时间小于等于第二预设时长。
示例性地,在具体实现中,上述车辆可以将自身的驾驶状态信息发送给云端设备。该驾驶状态信息可以包括该车辆的位置、行驶速度、移动方向(或者说行驶方向)、类型和标识等信息中的一项或多项。可以理解,此处描述的驾驶状态信息仅为示例,不构成对本申请实施例的限制。云端设备接收到该车辆的驾驶状态信息后,可以根据该驾驶状态信息和上述接收到的第一信息计算出该车辆和第一对象的距离,和/或计算出该车辆和第一对象的碰撞时间。示例性地,云端设备可以结合高精地图来计算该距离和/或碰撞时间,本申请实施例对该具体计算的实现过程不做限制。在该距离小于等于上述第二预设距离,和/或在该碰撞时间小于等于上述第二预设时长的情况下,云端设备向上述车辆发送上述第二信息。示例性地,该第二预设距离和/或该第二预设时长可以是根据实际应用需求设定,本申请实施例对此不做限制。通过这种实现方式,可以节省不必要的冗余数据的发送,节省传输带宽。
S905、车辆获取该第二信息,并根据该第二信息和第一感知信息获取第一融合信息;并根据该第一融合信息执行第一驾驶控制;第一感知信息包括通过车辆的传感器获得的感知信息;在该车辆根据第二感知信息感知到该第一对象的情况下,根据该第二感知信息执行第二驾驶控制;该第二感知信息包括通过该车辆的传感器获得的对该第一对象的感知信息。
一种可能的实现方式中,本申请实施例所描述的车辆所执行的操作可以是有车辆的控制器来执行的。例如,可以是由部署了上述图3中所示的车载智能驾驶系统的软件的VDC、CDC、MDC或者其它控制器来执行的。
示例性地,该车辆自身的传感器也在不断地探测周围的路面情况获得自身的感知信息。在车辆接收到来自上述云端设备的第二信息之后,可以根据该第二信息和该车辆自身的感知信息实现信息融合。
一种可能的实现中,上述车辆可以将上述第二信息和自身的感知信息融合到高精地图中。示例性地,可以采用任意的感知信息融合方法来实现该第二信息和车辆自身的感知信息的融合,本申请实施例对该感知信息融合的方法不做限制。获得融合后的高精地图后,根据该融合后的高精地图来实现车辆的智能驾驶控制。示例性地,车辆可以根据该融合后的高精地图感知到第一对象的存在,因此可以计算自身与该第一对象的距离和/或碰撞时间。进而根据该距离和/或碰撞时间来做出减速或者换道等操作控制,实现安全驾驶。
在另一种具体实现中,上述车辆可以将上述第二信息和自身的感知信息融合到自定义的地图中。同样可以根据融合后的地图感知到上述第一对象的存在,进而根据与该第一对象的距离和/或碰撞时间来做出减速或者换道等操作控制,实现安全驾驶。
一种可能的实现方式中,若上述第一对象进入上述车辆的感知范围,即该车辆可以感知到该第一对象后,可以根据该车辆自身的感知信息来执行驾驶控制。这种情况下,该车辆自身的感知信息即包括对上述第一对象的感知信息。无需再进行路侧感知数据和车辆自身感知数据的融合操作。节省计算资源的同时,采用车辆自身的感知数据置信度更高,以便于做出更合理准确的驾驶控制,降低出现安全事故的风险。
另一种可能的实现方式中,在上述车辆可以感知到上述第一对象后,车辆依然可以从云端设备接收到路侧感知装置对该第一对象的感知信息(简称为第三信息)。然后,可以按照权重比例来实现该第三信息和车辆自身的感知信息的融合,并根据融合后的感知信息来执行对应的驾驶控制。示例性地,车辆自身的感知信息的权重大于该第三信息的权重。示例性地,权重可以通过百分占比或者打分等方式来表示,本申请实施例对此不作限制。示例性地,在具体实现中,可以通过机器学习模型或者深度学习模型等感知融合模型来实现车辆自身的感知信息和该第三信息的融合。例如,该感知融合模型的输入可以包括车辆自身的感知信息(包括对该第一对象的感知信息)、第三信息以及该两个信息的权重(或者权重比例),输出即为融合后的感知信息。从而可以根据融合后的感知信息来执行驾驶控制。这种实现方式下,一方面利用路侧感知信息扩大了车辆的感知范围,另一方面车辆自身的感知权重比例较高,可以提高感知融合的置信度。
一种可能的实现方式中,上述路侧感知装置对车辆的感知置信度较高,而对行人的感知置信度较低。因此,若车辆接收到上述云端设备转发过来的路侧感知信息中包括对车辆的感知信息,则车辆可以将该车辆的感知信息与自身的感知信息进行融合。例如,上述第一对象包括一个或多个目标车辆,上述第二信息包括路侧感知装置对该一个或多个目标车辆的感知信息。若车辆接收到上述云端设备转发过来的路侧感知信息中包括对行人的感知信息,那么可以将该对行人的感知信息丢弃,不予使用。以减少对后续融合和驾驶控制的干扰。示例性地,例如可以通过上述第二信息中的类型来判断出是行人的感知信息还是车辆的感知信息。
一种可能的实现方式中,在上述第一对象进入上述车辆的感知范围之后,该车辆可以探测到该第一对象,并获取到该第一对象的感知信息(简称为第二感知信息)。示例性地,该第二感知信息也可以包括该第一对象的位置、移动速度、移动方向、类型和标识中的一项或多项信息。
此外,在上述第一对象进入上述车辆的感知范围之后,车辆仍然可以从云端设备接收到上述路侧感知装置探测到的该第一对象的感知信息(简称为第四信息)。然后,车辆可以根据自身对第一对象的感知信息校准该第四信息,以获得校准结果。示例性地,该第四信息同样指示了第一对象的位置、移动速度、移动方向、类型和标识中的一项或多项信息。车辆也可以通过分析处理对第一对象的感知信息获得该第一对象的位置、移动速度、移动方向、类型和标识中的一项或多项信息。
示例性地,一种可能的实现中,可以通过欧氏距离算法或马氏距离算法进行数据关联,以实现路侧装置感知的第一对象和车辆感知的第一对象之间的匹配。然后,车辆可以将上述第四信息与该车辆对第一对象的感知信息进行对比,获得感知信息的偏差信息。例如,可以将该第四信息与该车辆对第一对象的感知信息中的位置信息进行比较,获得位置偏差。可选的,还可以将该第四信息与该车辆对第一对象的感知信息中的移动速度进行比较,获得速度偏差等等。该一个或多个偏差组成了感知信息的偏差信息,该偏差信息即为上述校准结果。
或者,示例性地,另一种可能的实现中,车辆可以先将上述车辆对第一对象的感知信息和第四信息融合到车辆的地图(例如高精地图或自定义地图)中。然后,车辆根据融合后的地图可以获得第一对象的位置、移动速度、移动方向、类型和标识中的一项或多项信息,这些信息简称为融合感知信息。然后,车辆可以将该第四信息与该融合感知信息进行对比,获得感知信息的偏差信息。例如,可以将该第四信息与该融合感知信息中的位置信息进行比较,获得位置偏差。可选的,还可以将该第四信息与该融合感知信息中的移动速度进行比较,获得速度偏差等等。该一个或多个偏差组成了感知信息的偏差信息,该偏差信息即为上述校准结果。
车辆获得上述校准结果后,可以将该校准结果发送给云端设备。云端设备再将该校准结果发送给上述路侧感知装置。路侧感知装置接收到该校准结果后,根据该校准结果校准自身的感知置信度。示例性地,路侧感知装置可以将该校准结果作为校准参数输入到自身感知计算单元的感知模型中,以实现感知模型的参数校正,因而校准路侧感知装置的感知置信度。
一种可能的实现方式中,若上述路侧感知装置感知到上述第一对象离开上述驾驶盲区路段,或者感知到第一对象进入上述车辆的感知范围。该路侧感知装置可以向云端设备发送第五信息。
示例性地,路侧感知装置在传感器检测到的检测信息中检测不到第一对象的存在,例如提取不到第一对象的感知信息,那么可以确定第一对象离开上述驾驶盲区路段。这种情况下,上述第五信息用于指示该第一对象离开上述驾驶盲区路段。示例性地,该第五信息可以是空数据,或者可以是预设的第一指示标记信息等,本申请实施例对此不做限制。
示例性地,路侧感知装置在传感器检测到的检测信息中提取出第一对象和车辆的感知信息,然后计算该两者之间的距离。若该距离小于预设的距离,那么可以确定该第一对象进入车辆的感知范围。这种情况下,上述第五信息用于指示该第一对象进入车辆的感知范围。示例性地,该第五信息可以是预设的第二指示标记信息等,本申请实施例对此不做限制。示例性地,该第二指示标记信息和上述第一指示标记信息可以相同,或者可以不同。
上述云端设备接收到上述第五信息后,可以获知上述第一对象离开上述驾驶盲区路段,或者第一对象进入上述车辆的感知范围。若第一对象离开上述驾驶盲区路段,那么表明该第一对象不会(或者暂时不会)对车辆的驾驶安全造成威胁。若第一对象进入上述车辆的感知范围,那么由该车辆来根据自身的感知信息来处理即可。因此,云端设备可以根据该第五信息生成感知融合关闭信息,并向车辆发送该感知融合关闭信息。该车辆接收到该感知融合关闭信息后,根据该信息的指示恢复单车感知驾驶模式,关闭与路侧感知装置检测到的第一对象的感知信息融合的功能。
示例性地,一种可能的实现中,上述第一对象是离开上述驾驶盲区路段的最后一个对象,这种情况下才会触发上述的融合关闭操作。即驾驶盲区路段中不存在任何威胁上述车辆驾驶安全的对象,此时路侧探测装置可以向云端设备发送空数据。例如,向云端设备发送的报文或消息中的数据为空。云端设备接收到该空数据后,可以向车辆发送上述感知融合关闭信息。若上述第一对象离开驾驶盲区路段后,驾驶盲区路段中还存在其它对象,特别是存在威胁上述车辆驾驶安全的对象,那么不会触发上述的融合关闭操作。
一种可能的实现方式中,若上述驾驶盲区路段中包括红绿灯。那么,上述路侧感知装置还可以获取该红绿灯的通行指示信息,并向上述云端设备发送该通行指示信息。该通行指示信息例如可以是红绿灯的相位信息等。云端设备接收到该通行指示信息后,可以结合上述车辆的位置信息为该车辆动态计算出最优路径和/或速度等信息,并将该信息发送给车辆。车辆接收到该信息后,可以根据该信息完成对应的驾驶控制。例如,按照该最优路径和/或速度来行驶等。
一种可能的实现方式中,可以是在上述计算出的最优路径和/或速度等信息相比于车辆上报的信息发生改变的情况下,上述云端设备才向车辆发送该最优路径和/或速度等信息。从而节省传输带宽。
综上所述,本申请实施例中,在道路盲区路段部署路侧感知装置,而不是在道路上连续部署大量的感知装置;并且车辆不和路侧感知装置通信,而是经由云端实现车路之间的信息交互,使得车内无需部署OBU,路侧也无需采用昂贵的RSU,从而极大地降低了成本。此外,把路侧感知装置当成是车辆外延的感知装置,即路侧感知装置感知到的信息经云端直接发给车辆,由车辆将该接收的感知信息和自身感知装置感知的信息融合以扩大车辆的感知范围,降低驾驶安全隐患。即本方案提供了一种可以有效降低车辆驾驶安全隐患且实现成本低,易于推广使用的车路协同方案。
