Embodiment Construction

[0041] The embodiments shown in the drawings at least partially correspond and therefore similar or identical parts are denoted by the same reference numerals, and these parts are also explained with reference to other embodiments or the description of the drawings to avoid repetition.

[0042] figure 1 A motor vehicle 10 is shown. In particular, the motor vehicle 10 may be a commercial vehicle, in particular a truck or a bus.

[0043] The motor vehicle 10 includes a number of components that can be used to automatically guide the motor vehicle 10 laterally in a vehicle queue. In particular, the motor vehicle 10 may include a lane marking detection system 12, a target tracking detection system 14, a positioning system 16, a navigation system (or a module for self-positioning in a digital map) 18, and / or a communication interface 20. In addition, the motor vehicle 10 also includes a control unit 22. The lane marking detection system 12, the target tracking detection system 14, the...

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method for the automatic transverse guidance of a following vehicle (10A) in a vehicle platoon (30). The method comprises determining and receiving a plurality of lane data. A lane course is able to be determined on the basis of the plurality of lane data and the following vehicle (10A) is able to be transversely guided on the basis of the determined lane course. The method is able to prevent an increase in swaying movements from the front to the rear in the vehicle platoon. In addition, the vehicles of the vehicle platoon are able to remain in the startinglane, even when a vehicle of the vehicle platform driving in front changes lane.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for automatically guiding a following vehicle laterally in a vehicle queue. In particular, the present invention relates to a method for determining a lane reference route (lane line) so as to stably and automatically guide one or more following vehicles laterally in a vehicle queue. Background technique [0002] When vehicles are grouped together, the electronic coupling of vehicles is used to make one or more following vehicles automatically follow the guiding vehicle in the vehicle queue with a short distance. Automation and communication between vehicles allows driving with extremely short distances between queue members. [0003] Conventional methods for automatic lateral guidance of modern motor vehicles are based to a considerable extent on sensor assisted detection and lane marking tracking. However, especially during the platooning of vehicles, because of the visual conditions when following short distances, the la...
