[0032] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by referring to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.

[0033] The method for determining the vehicle speed on a curve, the intelligent driving simulation test system and the medium according to the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] Figure 1 is a schematic flowchart of a method for determining the vehicle speed on a curve according to an embodiment of the present invention. As Figure 1 shown, the method for determining the vehicle speed on a curve according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0035] S11: When the vehicle is traveling along a curve, determine the lateral offset and the change in the steering wheel angle of the vehicle;

[0036] S13: Determine the vehicle speed on the curve according to the lateral offset and the change in the steering wheel angle.

[0037] According to the method for determining the vehicle speed on a curve according to the embodiment of the present invention, when the vehicle is traveling along a curve, the lateral offset and the change in the steering wheel angle of the vehicle are determined, and then the vehicle speed on the curve is accurately and effectively determined according to the lateral offset and the change in the steering wheel angle, which is beneficial to vehicle simulation verification according to the vehicle speed on the curve. At the same time, the error between the vehicle speed on the curve determined by this method and the actual vehicle speed is small, and the vehicle speed on the curve can be determined in real time. In addition, it can also reduce the interference caused by the kinematic model, the vehicle dynamics model, the slipping factor, etc. to the calculation of the vehicle speed on the curve.

[0038] It is understandable that if the maximum speed of the four tires during the vehicle's turning along a curve is used as the vehicle's cornering speed, or the average speed of the four tires during the vehicle's turning along a curve is used as the vehicle's cornering speed, it cannot represent the true speed under skidding conditions, and there is a problem of large error; if the state measurement information of the vehicle system model at the current moment and the vehicle state estimation information at the previous moment are used to obtain the vehicle's cornering speed at the current moment through a recurrence formula, it will lead to problems of large computational complexity and large error; if the acceleration is calculated by calculating the wheel-end torque according to the torque of the engine or motor when simulating and calculating the vehicle speed, and then the vehicle speed is calculated by the sum of the initial speed and the time integral of the acceleration, it will lead to a large error in the vehicle speed during continuous turning, affecting the verification effect of the algorithm.

[0039] Specifically, in some embodiments of the present invention, the vehicle's cornering speed is calculated by the following formula:

[0040]

[0041] Wherein, V is the vehicle's cornering speed, L is the vehicle's lateral offset, θ is the change amount of the steering wheel angle, and T is the wheel steering ratio. The value of T can be 13 or other values, which is not limited herein.

[0042] Specifically, in the above formula (1), the unit of the vehicle's lateral offset L is m, and the unit of the cornering speed V is m / s. If the unit of the cornering speed is converted to km / h, the above formula (1) should be transformed into:

[0043]

[0044] Wherein, V' is the vehicle's cornering speed in km / h.

[0045] It can be understood that in the above formula (1) and formula (2), θ / T is the change amount of the wheel steering angle α. In one example, the simulation of the cornering speed is as follows:

[0046] L = 0:0.1:3.5;

[0047] α = 0:1:35;

[0048] [α,L] = meshgrid(α,L);

[0049] V = 0.55.*L. / sind(2.*α);

[0050] mesh(α,L,V)

[0051] xlabel('Change amount of wheel steering angle'); ylabel('Lateral offset'); zlabel('Cornering speed');

[0052] The simulation results are as Figure 2 shown below.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 3 , in some embodiments of the present invention, determining the lateral offset of the vehicle includes:

[0054] S111: When the vehicle is not following the curve, obtain the first distance and the second distance, where the first distance is the distance between the vehicle and the lane line of the curve at the previous moment, and the second distance is the distance between the vehicle and the lane line of the curve at the current moment;

[0055] S112: Determine the lateral offset of the vehicle according to the first distance and the second distance.

[0056] In this way, the lateral offset of the vehicle is determined according to the first distance and the second distance, so as to facilitate accurately and effectively determining the vehicle speed on the curve when the vehicle is not following the curve according to the lateral offset and the change amount of the steering wheel angle in the subsequent process.

[0057] Specifically, the vehicle following the curve can be understood as that the driving trajectory of the vehicle is basically parallel to the center line of the curve during the driving process along the curve; the vehicle not following the curve can be understood as that the driving trajectory of the vehicle is not parallel to the center line of the curve during the driving process along the curve. The first distance between the vehicle and the lane line of the curve at the previous moment may include the distance Lf between the vehicle and the left lane line and the distance Lr between the vehicle and the right lane line. The second distance between the vehicle and the lane line of the curve at the current moment may include the distance Lf' between the vehicle and the left lane line and the distance Lr' between the vehicle and the right lane line, where the previous moment and the current moment are two adjacent sampling moments. Please refer to Figure 4 , in some embodiments, calculate the values of Lf'-Lf and Lr'-Lr respectively. When Lf'-Lf = 0 and Lr'-Lr = 0, it can be determined that the vehicle is following the curve, otherwise it is determined that the vehicle is not following the curve.

[0058] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the lateral offset L of the vehicle is calculated by the following formula:

[0059] L = |Lf'-Lf| (3)

[0060] where Lf is the first distance between the vehicle and the left lane line of the curve at the previous moment, and Lf' is the second distance between the vehicle and the left lane line of the curve at the current moment. In some embodiments, the lateral offset L of the vehicle is calculated by the following formula:

[0061] L = |Lr'-Lr| (4)

[0062] Wherein, Lr is the first distance between the vehicle and the right lane line of the curve at the previous moment, and Lr' is the second distance between the vehicle and the right lane line of the curve at the current moment.

[0063] Please combine Figure 5 , in some embodiments of the present invention, determining the change amount of the steering wheel angle includes:

[0064] S113: When the vehicle is not following the curve, obtain the first steering wheel angle of the vehicle at the previous moment, the curve attribute at the previous moment, and the pre-calibrated reference correspondence, wherein the reference correspondence is the correspondence between the curve attribute and the reference steering wheel angle when the vehicle is following the curve;

[0065] S114: Determine the change amount of the steering wheel angle according to the first steering wheel angle, the curve attribute, and the reference correspondence.

[0066] In this way, the change amount of the steering wheel angle is determined according to the first steering wheel angle, the curve attribute, and the reference correspondence, so as to facilitate accurately and effectively determining the curve vehicle speed when the vehicle is not following the curve according to the lateral offset and the change amount of the steering wheel angle subsequently.

[0067] Specifically, the first steering wheel angle can be understood as the angle rotated by the steering wheel of the vehicle at the previous moment. Vehicles of the same model rotate by basically the same angle when the steering wheel rotates by the same angle. The curve attribute may include the curve curvature.

[0068] Furthermore, when the vehicle is following the curve, collect the reference steering wheel angle and the curve attribute when the vehicle is following the curve. It can be understood that the collected reference steering wheel angle and the curve attribute correspond one by one at this time. In some embodiments, when the vehicle is following the curve, record and store the reference steering wheel angle and the curve attribute in the simulation process at this time, and cumulatively store 10 groups of data of the reference steering wheel angle and the curve attribute when the vehicle is following the curve. Calculate the average value of the reference steering wheel angles in the above 10 groups of data, and calculate the average value of the curve attributes in the above 10 groups of data. Generate the reference correspondence according to the average value of the reference steering wheel angles and the average value of the curve attributes. When the subsequent vehicle is following another curve, the reference correspondence can be supplemented according to the reference steering wheel angle and the curve attribute when the vehicle is following the other curve, so as to obtain the reference correspondence between the reference steering wheel angle and the curve attribute under different curves.

[0069] Please combine Figure 6 , in some embodiments of the present invention, step S114 includes:

[0070] S1141: Based on the reference correspondence, determine the reference steering wheel angle corresponding to the curve attribute;

[0071] S1142: Determine the change in the steering wheel angle based on the first steering wheel angle and the reference steering wheel angle.

[0072] In this way, it is possible to determine the difference between the steering wheel angle when the vehicle does not follow the curve and the steering wheel angle when the vehicle follows the curve under the current curve attribute, so as to facilitate accurately and effectively determining the curve speed of the vehicle when it does not follow the curve based on this difference and the lateral offset.

[0073] Specifically, the curve attribute is the attribute of the curve at the previous position collected at the previous moment, and the reference steering wheel angle is the steering wheel angle when the vehicle corresponding to the curve attribute follows the curve at the previous position.

[0074] Please refer to Figure 7 , when the vehicle does not follow the curve, the change in the steering wheel angle can be understood as the difference between the first steering wheel angle when the vehicle did not follow the curve at the previous moment and the steering wheel angle when the vehicle follows the curve. In some embodiments, the change in the steering wheel angle is calculated by the following formula:

[0075] θ = |θ1 - θ0| (5)

[0076] Where θ is the change in the steering wheel angle, θ1 is the first steering wheel angle at the previous moment, and θ0 is the reference steering wheel angle.

[0077] It should be noted that the curve speed determined when the vehicle does not follow the curve is the vehicle speed at the previous moment.

[0078] Please refer to Figure 8 , in some embodiments of the present invention, determining the change in the steering wheel angle includes:

[0079] S115: When the vehicle follows the curve, obtain the first steering wheel angle of the vehicle at the previous moment and the second steering wheel angle of the vehicle at the current moment;

[0080] S116: Determine the change in the steering wheel angle based on the first steering wheel angle and the second steering wheel angle.

[0081] In this way, determining the change in the steering wheel angle based on the first steering wheel angle and the second steering wheel angle facilitates subsequent accurately and effectively determining the curve speed of the vehicle when it follows the curve based on the lateral offset and the change in the steering wheel angle.

[0082] Specifically, when the vehicle follows the curve, the change in the steering wheel angle can be understood as the difference between the first steering wheel angle of the vehicle at the previous moment and the second steering wheel angle of the vehicle at the current moment. In some embodiments, the change in the steering wheel angle θ is calculated by the following formula:

[0083] θ = |θ1 - θ2| (6)

[0084] Wherein, θ1 is the first steering wheel angle at the previous moment, and θ2 is the second steering wheel angle at the current moment.

[0085] Please combine Figure 9 In some embodiments of the present invention, determining the lateral offset of the vehicle further includes:

[0086] S117: When the vehicle is following a curve, obtain the curve attribute at the previous moment;

[0087] S118: Determine the lateral offset of the vehicle according to the curve attribute and the change amount of the steering wheel angle.

[0088] In this way, the lateral offset of the vehicle is determined according to the curve attribute and the change amount of the steering wheel angle, so as to facilitate accurately and effectively determining the curve vehicle speed when the vehicle is following a curve according to the lateral offset and the change amount of the steering wheel angle in the subsequent process.

[0089] Specifically, please combine Figure 10 In some embodiments of the present invention, the lateral offset of the vehicle is calculated by the following formula:

[0090]

[0091] Wherein, L is the lateral offset of the vehicle, K is the curve attribute, θ is the change amount of the steering wheel angle, and T is the wheel steering ratio. It can be understood that when the curve attribute is the curve curvature, 1 / K in formula (7) is the curvature radius of the curve corresponding to the curve curvature.

[0092] It can be understood that due to the relatively short sampling interval, when the vehicle is following a curve, the change amount of the steering wheel angle within two adjacent sampling moments can be approximated as the central angle corresponding to the vehicle driving trajectory within two adjacent sampling moments.

[0093] It should be noted that the determination method of the lateral offset when the vehicle is following a curve is different from the determination method of the lateral offset when the vehicle is not following a curve, and the determination method of the change amount of the steering wheel angle when the vehicle is following a curve is different from the determination method of the change amount of the steering wheel angle when the vehicle is not following a curve. The driving situation of the vehicle along the curve can be determined by calculating the values of Lf’ - Lf and Lr’ - Lr first, and then the determination method of the curve vehicle speed can be dynamically selected according to the driving situation of the vehicle along the curve (following the curve or not following the curve) to ensure the accuracy of the determined curve vehicle speed.

[0094] It should be noted that the specific values mentioned above are only for illustrating the implementation of the present invention in detail by way of examples, and should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention. In other examples, embodiments or implementations, other values can be selected according to the present invention, and no specific limitation is made herein.

[0095] To implement the above embodiments, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a computer-readable storage medium, on which a program for determining the speed on a curve is stored. When the program for determining the speed on a curve is executed by a processor, the method for determining the speed on a curve according to any one of the above embodiments is implemented.

[0096] According to the computer-readable storage medium of the embodiment of the present invention, when a vehicle is driving along a curve, the lateral offset and the change amount of the steering wheel angle of the vehicle are determined, and then the vehicle is accurately and effectively determined according to the lateral offset and the change amount of the steering wheel angle, which is beneficial to vehicle simulation verification according to the speed on the curve.

[0097] For example, when the program for determining the speed on a curve is executed by a processor, the following steps of the method for determining the speed on a curve are implemented:

[0098] S11: When the vehicle is driving along a curve, determine the lateral offset and the change amount of the steering wheel angle of the vehicle;

[0099] S13: Determine the speed of the vehicle on the curve according to the lateral offset and the change amount of the steering wheel angle.

[0100] It should be noted that the above explanations of the embodiments and beneficial effects of the method for determining the speed on a curve are also applicable to the computer-readable storage medium of the embodiment of the present invention. To avoid redundancy, no detailed expansion is made herein.

[0101] To implement the above embodiments, an embodiment of the present invention further provides an intelligent driving simulation test system Figure 11 is a structural block diagram of an intelligent driving simulation test system according to an embodiment of the present invention. As Figure 11 shown, the intelligent driving simulation test system 300 includes a sensor module 302 and a vehicle controller 304. The sensor module 302 is used to determine the lateral offset and the change amount of the steering wheel angle of the vehicle when the vehicle is driving along a curve. The simulation vehicle controller 304 is used to determine the speed of the vehicle on the curve according to the lateral offset and the change amount of the steering wheel angle.

[0102] According to the intelligent driving simulation test system 300 of the embodiment of the present invention, when the vehicle is driving along a curve, the lateral offset and the change amount of the steering wheel angle of the vehicle are determined, and then the vehicle is accurately and effectively determined according to the lateral offset and the change amount of the steering wheel angle, which is beneficial to vehicle simulation verification according to the speed on the curve.

[0103] Specifically, the sensor module 302 may include a lane line recognition sensor, a binocular camera, a trinocular camera, a steering wheel angle sensor, etc. The lane line recognition sensor, the binocular camera or the trinocular camera can be used to recognize the lane line and obtain the curvature data of the curve along which the vehicle follows the curve, as well as obtain the first distance between the vehicle and the lane line of the curve at the current moment, the current curvature of the curve, and the second distance between the vehicle and the lane line of the curve at the next moment. The steering wheel angle sensor can be used to obtain the first steering wheel angle of the vehicle following the curve and the first steering wheel angle of the vehicle at the current moment.

[0104] In some embodiments of the present invention, the sensor module 302 is further configured to: when the vehicle does not follow the curve, obtain a first distance and a second distance, where the first distance is the distance between the vehicle and the lane line of the curve at the previous moment, and the second distance is the distance between the vehicle and the lane line of the curve at the current moment; determine the lateral offset of the vehicle according to the first distance and the second distance.

[0105] In some embodiments of the present invention, the sensor module 302 is further configured to: when the vehicle does not follow the curve, obtain the first steering wheel angle of the vehicle at the previous moment, the curve attribute at the previous moment, and a pre-calibrated reference correspondence, where the reference correspondence is the correspondence between the curve attribute and the reference steering wheel angle when the vehicle follows the curve; determine the change amount of the steering wheel angle according to the first steering wheel angle, the curve attribute, and the reference correspondence.

[0106] In some embodiments of the present invention, the sensor module 302 is further configured to: based on the reference correspondence, determine the reference steering wheel angle corresponding to the curve attribute; determine the change amount of the steering wheel angle according to the first steering wheel angle and the reference steering wheel angle.

[0107] In some embodiments of the present invention, the sensor module 302 is further configured to: when the vehicle follows the curve, obtain the first steering wheel angle of the vehicle at the previous moment and the second steering wheel angle of the vehicle at the current moment; determine the change amount of the steering wheel angle according to the first steering wheel angle and the second steering wheel angle.

[0108] In some embodiments of the present invention, the sensor module 302 is further configured to: when the vehicle follows the curve, obtain the curve attribute at the previous moment; determine the lateral offset of the vehicle according to the curve attribute and the change amount of the steering wheel angle.

[0109] In some embodiments of the present invention, the lateral offset of the vehicle is calculated by the following formula: where L is the lateral offset of the vehicle, K is the curve attribute, θ is the change amount of the steering wheel angle, and T is the wheel steering ratio.

[0110] In some embodiments of the present invention, the cornering speed of a vehicle is calculated by the following formula: Wherein, V is the cornering speed of the vehicle, L is the lateral offset of the vehicle, θ is the change in the steering wheel angle, and T is the wheel steering ratio.

[0111] It should be noted that the above explanations of the embodiments and beneficial effects of the method for determining the cornering speed are also applicable to the intelligent driving simulation test system 300 of the embodiments of the present invention. To avoid redundancy, no detailed elaboration will be made here.
