[0046] [vehicle structure]

[0047] figure 1 It is a figure which shows the component which the vehicle (henceforth referred to as own vehicle M) equipped with the vehicle control system 1 of 1st Embodiment has. Vehicles equipped with the vehicle control system 1 are, for example, two-wheeled, three-wheeled, four-wheeled motor vehicles, including motor vehicles powered by internal combustion engines such as diesel engines and gasoline engines, electric vehicles powered by electric motors, and Hybrid vehicles with internal combustion engines and electric motors, etc. In addition, the electric vehicles described above are driven using electric power discharged from batteries such as secondary batteries, hydrogen fuel cells, metal fuel cells, and alcohol fuel cells, for example.

[0048] like figure 1 As shown, sensors such as probes 20 - 1 to 20 - 7 , radars 30 - 1 to 30 - 6 , and a camera 40 , a navigation device 50 , and a vehicle control device 100 are mounted on the host ve...

no. 2 approach

[0145] Hereinafter, a second embodiment will be described. In the above-mentioned first embodiment, the fact that there is no vehicle in the prohibited area (the above-mentioned first condition) and the collision margin time between the host vehicle M and surrounding vehicles (for example, the front reference vehicle mB and the rear reference vehicle mC) are threshold values. When both of the above cases (the above-mentioned second condition) are satisfied, it is determined that the lane change of the host vehicle M to the lane change destination can be performed. In the second embodiment, when at least one of the plurality of conditions such as the first condition and the second condition described above is satisfied, it is determined that the lane change of the host vehicle M to the lane change destination is possible.

[0146] It should be noted that, in the second embodiment, only the content of the lane change possibility judgment processing is different from the first em...

Abstract

A vehicle control device is provided with a recognition unit which recognizes the position of peripheral vehicles traveling in the periphery of the local vehicle; a target position setting unit whichsets the lane change target position to the lane change target lane to which the local vehicle will change lanes; a lane change permissibility determination unit which determines that a lane change ispossible if a first condition and / or a second condition is satisfied, the first condition being that there are no peripheral vehicles present in a forbidden region configured to the side of the localvehicle and in the lane change target lane, and the second condition being that the collision margin time for collision between the local vehicle and peripheral vehicles in front of or behind the target position is greater than the threshold value; and a control unit which, if the lane change permissibility determination unit determines that the lane change is possible, causes the local vehicle to change lanes to the lane change target lane.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a vehicle control device, a vehicle control method and a vehicle control program. [0002] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2016-028721 for which it applied on February 18, 2016, and uses the content here. Background technique [0003] In recent years, research on technologies for automatically changing lanes while driving based on the relative relationship between the host vehicle and surrounding vehicles has progressed. In connection with this, there is known a driving control device that acquires traffic conditions including vehicle density of each lane of a road on which the vehicle is traveling, changes the vehicle to a lane with a high vehicle density among the lanes, and makes a lane change with a high density of oncoming vehicles. Vehicles whose lanes have changed lanes are controlled so that the inter-vehicle distance becomes more difficult to shorten as the vehicle den...
