[0099] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. Of course, the specific embodiments described below are only intended to explain the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. In addition, the parts described in the embodiments or drawings are merely illustrative of the relevant parts of the present invention, rather than the entire present invention.
[0100] like Figure 1 As shown, due to the above-mentioned technical problems, some drivers are unwilling to turn on this function. This embodiment realizes information prediction during the intelligent start-stop process based on GPS and traffic light information; a preliminary prediction of the waiting time Tr of the first target vehicle Z at the red light can be made with some traffic flow information; and through modeling, parameter identification is performed based on offline data to finally obtain an offline prediction model; and then the parameters are iteratively updated based on the latest online data to finally obtain the predicted time result.
[0101] As shown above, with the predicted time Tp, the driver or developer can set a threshold. If the predicted time Tp is lower than this threshold, the stop will not trigger the start-stop function, thereby reducing the number of unnecessary stops and improving the driver's driving experience.
[0102] Down Figure 2 The figure shows two states of vehicles entering the intersection under normal traffic conditions. The AAA vehicle enters the intersection just when the red light comes on. At this time, the distance between the AAA vehicle and the intersection is very small. The BBB vehicle enters the intersection when the red light is about to end. It can be observed that under normal conditions, there is a negative correlation between the remaining time of the red light or the time the vehicle stops at this intersection and the distance between the vehicle and the intersection; this is also the main basis of the method of the present invention.
[0103] Furthermore, since there is a negative correlation between the vehicle's red light waiting time and the distance to the intersection, the relevant map traffic flow information obtained by the map provider through GPS can be combined with the vehicle status information inside the electronic control unit ECU (Electronic Control Unit) to predict the vehicle's red light waiting time and control the vehicle status to improve the driver's experience of the start-stop function.
[0104] Specifically, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention establishes a vehicle red light waiting time prediction model scenario by modeling the vehicle's own state and the surrounding environment state before the red light.
[0105] We focus on four moments in the model:
[0106] T1: The first light-up moment, i.e. the moment when the red light comes on and all vehicles begin to slow down and stop;
[0107] T2: the second stable stop time, i.e. the time when the first target vehicle Z stops stably;
[0108] T3: The third pre-start time, that is, the moment when the green light comes on and the first car starts to move;
[0109] T4: the fourth restart time, that is, the time when the first target vehicle Z starts to start.
[0110] Since we are predicting the time from the first target vehicle Z stopping to starting, that is, T4-T2, according to the definition of the above time, we can expand T4-T2 into (T4-T3)+(T3-T1)-(T2-T1).
[0111] T4-T3 is the total vehicle start time. The number of vehicles K ahead of the first target vehicle Z at the intersection can be calculated from the vehicle length L, the inter-vehicle distance D1 when the vehicle stops, and the distance X between the vehicle and the center of the intersection at the time of stopping: K=X / (L+D1).
[0112] Therefore, according to the model parameters, the overall vehicle starting time is: T4-T3=K·td=(X / (L+D1))·td.
[0113] T3-T1 is the traffic light configuration time. According to the model parameters, we can obtain: T3-T1=t0.
[0114] T2-T1 is the time required for all vehicles to stop. Since the distance between each vehicle is D2, the time required for the first target vehicle Z to perform uniform deceleration linear motion until it stops is recorded as tsp.
[0115] And because the displacement formula S=V·tsp-a·(tsp)^2, the expression of tsp can be obtained: tsp=2S / V.
[0116] Since S=KD2, the time required for the first target vehicle Z to decelerate and stop can be obtained based on the model parameters:
[0117] T2-T1=tsp=(2KD2) / V=(X·2D2) / ((L+D1)·V);
[0118] Combining the above formula, the final formula for the vehicle red light waiting time prediction model is as follows:
[0119] tp=T4-T2=t0+(X·(td-(2D2) / V)) / (L+D1).
[0120] in:
[0121] t0 is the red light configuration duration;
[0122] L is the average length of a general vehicle;
[0123] td is the general average startup time;
[0124] V is the current traffic speed, which is related to the traffic density;
[0125] D1 is the distance between the front and rear vehicles when the vehicle is generally stopped;
[0126] D2 is the average distance between vehicles, which is also related to the traffic density;
[0127] X is the distance between the vehicle and the center of the intersection at the time of stopping;
[0128] K is the total number of vehicles ahead of the first target vehicle Z at the intersection;
[0129] S is the distance that the first target vehicle Z decelerates from the red light to the point where it stops.
[0130] In this embodiment of the present invention, a traffic scenario simulation model was established in a virtual vehicle laboratory. Nine intersections were set up, with traffic light durations set to 15s, 30s, and 60s, respectively. Vehicles were set to travel through the scenario, and 10 of them were selected to collect driving data, including vehicle status data such as speed, distance between the vehicle and the intersection center at the time of the stop, and actual stop time. After processing this historical data, offline parameter identification of the vehicle model was performed.
[0131] Since the distance X between the vehicle and the center of the intersection, the vehicle length L, and the distance D1 between the front and rear vehicles when the vehicle stops can all be known from historical data, the model can be simplified as follows:
[0132] tp=t0+K·(td-(2D2) / V)=t0+KC; where C=(td-(2D2) / V).
[0133] That is, C is considered to be a linear function related to D2, C = A·D2+B, A=-2 / V, B=td.
[0134] As can be seen from the above formula, the relevant historical data collected in the simulation scenario, such as the parking time tr, are brought into the above formula and fitted using the least squares method to obtain the values of A and B, and finally the initial parameters of the entire model.
[0135] Furthermore, by substituting the parameters V and td into the original formula, a vehicle red light waiting time prediction model can be obtained. The model parameters are input into the ECU software model, and after integrated compilation, the relevant vehicle control can be realized.
[0136] In addition, based on the error E between the actual parking time and the predicted time, the corresponding parameters obtained by previous fitting can be optimized and corrected in real time.
[0137] Specifically, if Figure 6 As shown, the traffic information processing method of the embodiment of the present invention includes a first information collection step 100 and a second information prediction step 200; wherein, the first information collection step 100 obtains first traffic flow information 001, and the first traffic flow information 001 also includes second historical traffic flow information 002 and third real-time traffic flow information 003, and the third real-time traffic flow information 003 also includes fourth geographic positioning information 004, and the fourth geographic positioning information 004 includes geographic location information of the first target vehicle Z, i.e., 060, and the first target vehicle Z, i.e., 060 is a vehicle whose forced safe parking time is to be predicted.
[0138] Further, if Figure 3and Figure 6 As shown, the second information prediction step 200 obtains the first prohibited passage time ts of the first target lane 040 at the first target intersection 050, wherein the first target intersection 050 is the first intersection with a red light, a duty post and / or a parking probability greater than zero in the direction of travel of the first target vehicle Z, i.e., 060, and the first target lane 040 is the lane through which the first target vehicle Z, i.e., 060 intends to pass through the first target intersection 050; the first prohibited passage time ts is a historical value; ts includes the parking time, statistical value or simulation value in the second historical traffic flow information 002 within a preset distance between the first target lane 040 and the first target intersection 050, and ts also includes the first red light configuration time t0 or the second forced compulsory parking time t1 of the first target lane 040; if the first prohibited passage time ts is greater than or equal to the preset first ignition off time threshold, the first ignition off time threshold is used as the first prediction value 201.
[0139] Further, if Figure 6 As shown, the first information collection step 100 of the embodiment of the present invention also obtains the maximum parking time TM at the head of the first target lane 040, where TM is the maximum parking time of vehicles within a preset distance from the first target lane 040 to the first target intersection 050 in the second historical traffic flow information 002.
[0140] Specifically, the second information prediction step 200 may further include outputting the first prediction value 201 to the vehicle controller 901 or updating the first traffic flow information 001 for further processing; wherein, if TM is greater than t0 or TM is greater than t1, t0 is used as the first prediction value 201.
[0141] Furthermore, an embodiment of the method of the present invention also includes a third start-stop control step 300; the third start-stop control step 300 obtains vehicle operation information for decision-making of the automatic start-stop function; wherein, the first prohibited passage time ts is less than or equal to the first red light configuration time t0; and its first traffic flow information 001 can be measurement or simulation data from a geographic information system GIS, a traffic information data source and / or a laboratory.
[0142] Furthermore, if the first predicted value 201 is less than the first ignition-off time threshold, the automatic start-stop function of the first target vehicle Z, ie, 060, is disabled.
