[0040] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of this application more clear, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the specific embodiments of this application and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0041] The following describes in detail the technical solutions provided by various embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, the hierarchically designed electronic gear signal monitoring strategy designs the gear function layer L1 and the gear function monitoring layer L2, and the gear function layer L1 is developed according to the QM standard requirements, and the gear function monitoring layer L2 is developed according to the safety level of the gear function required by the company.

[0043] The QM standard (Quality Management) belongs to the ISO26262 functional safety level, with levels including ASIL A / B / C / D. Among them, QM is an expression without functional safety level.

[0044] The gear monitoring method in the embodiment of the present application is used to increase a gear monitoring layer with a functional safety level and improve the fault tolerance of the gear signal output by designing a gear monitoring strategy.

[0045] In addition, after adding a gear monitoring layer, gear changes can be effectively avoided (for example, jumping directly from D gear to R gear), thereby improving driving safety.

[0046] Figure 1 When the vehicle status collects the gear information, it will be input into the gear function layer L1-QM and the gear function monitoring layer L2-ASIL. The functional gear and safety gear output by the two layers are used to make judgments in the gear output strategy, and finally the target gear is output.

[0047] The present application embodiment provides a gear position monitoring method, such as Figure 2As shown, a flow chart of a gear position monitoring method according to an embodiment of the present application is provided, wherein the method at least includes the following steps S210 to S220:

[0048] Step S210 , collecting vehicle gear position information, wherein the vehicle gear position information includes gear position information of an electronic gear lever.

[0049] The vehicle gear position information is collected, and the vehicle gear position information includes the gear position information of the electronic gear lever. Other information related to the vehicle gear position information may be taken into account, but at least the gear position information of the electronic gear lever must be included. For example, commercial vehicles generally do not have a P gear, while other types of vehicles do have a P gear.

[0050] Furthermore, the gear position information of the electronic gear lever collected refers to the gear position information of the upper system, not the gear position information of the motor, transmission, etc. in the lower system. Alternatively, it can be considered as collection at the computer program level.

[0051] Step S220, determining the target gear actually output in the vehicle gear information according to the gear function layer and the gear function monitoring layer, wherein the gear function monitoring layer includes a monitoring strategy based on a custom safety level generated by the gear function layer.

[0052] According to the gear function layer and the gear function monitoring layer, the target gear actually output in the vehicle gear information is comprehensively determined. It should be noted that the gear function monitoring layer is used to monitor the gear function layer.

[0053] The gear function monitoring layer includes a monitoring strategy based on the custom safety level generated by the gear function layer. This custom safety level is primarily related to the actual application scenario, with different safety levels in different scenarios. This monitoring strategy is primarily used to prevent the gear function layer from directly outputting gear information without corresponding verification or monitoring mechanisms. Furthermore, this monitoring strategy also prioritizes gear output fault tolerance and driving safety.

[0054] In some embodiments, the gear output by the gear function layer can be optimized through the gear function monitoring layer to better meet the requirements of safe driving.

[0055] In some embodiments, the safety level of the gear function monitoring layer is higher than that of the gear function layer, but its priority is lower than that of the gear function layer, so that the gear function layer can be given priority but if the safety policy is triggered, the gear function monitoring layer will perform a fallback operation to prevent gear output operations that affect safety.

[0056] In one embodiment of the present application, determining the target gear actually output in the vehicle gear information based on the gear function layer and the gear function monitoring layer includes: determining a first output result of the gear signal in the gear function layer; determining a second output result of the gear signal in the gear function monitoring layer; monitoring whether the first output result of the gear signal in the gear function layer is abnormal based on a monitoring strategy of a custom safety level generated by the gear function layer; if abnormal, using the second output result of the gear signal in the gear function monitoring layer as the target gear actually output in the vehicle gear information; if normal, using the first output result of the gear signal in the gear function layer as the target gear actually output in the vehicle gear information.

[0057] During specific implementation, the first output result of the gear signal in the gear function layer is first determined, and then the second output result of the gear signal in the gear function monitoring layer is determined. The first output result and the second output result are judged as abnormal based on the monitoring strategy of the custom safety level generated by the gear function layer. If normal, the first output result will be executed, and if abnormal, the second output result will be executed.

[0058] Furthermore, based on the monitoring strategy of the custom safety level generated by the gear function layer, whether the first output result of the gear signal in the gear function layer is abnormal is monitored. It should be noted that monitoring whether the first output result of the gear signal in the gear function layer is abnormal may include but is not limited to judging whether it is abnormal based on the gear type in the first output result and the second output result, or judging whether it is abnormal based on the gear safety level in the first output result and the second output result.

[0059] Because the second output result is designed for the safety gear and the first output result is designed for the functional gear, the first output result must comply with the second output result. In other words, the first output result will only be used if the safety gear design prerequisites are met. If not, the first output result will not be used or will be selected for use.

[0060] If it is abnormal, the second output result of the gear signal in the gear function monitoring layer shall be used as the target gear actually output in the vehicle gear information; if it is normal, the first output result of the gear signal in the gear function layer shall be used as the target gear actually output in the vehicle gear information.

[0061] In one embodiment of the present application, the gear function layer includes the functions of the vehicle application layer software, the gear function layer is independent of the gear function monitoring layer, and the gear output of the gear function layer is monitored in real time through the gear function monitoring layer.

[0062] In specific implementations, the gear function layer includes the functionality of the onboard application layer software, so the strategy is also designed based on the functionality of the onboard application layer software. The gear function layer and the gear function monitoring layer are independent and do not affect the output results of each layer. Finally, the gear function monitoring layer monitors the gear output of the gear function layer in real time. In other words, from a safety perspective, the output of the onboard application layer software is monitored for abnormalities.

[0063] In one embodiment of the present application, the method also includes: monitoring the braking signal of the EPB electronic parking brake module, and the monitoring of the braking signal of the EPB electronic parking brake module includes: when the gear function monitoring layer does not enable the EPB and the gear function layer enables the EPB, judging whether to enable the EPB according to the current speed of the vehicle; when the gear function monitoring layer enables the EPB signal, judging whether to enable the EPB according to the current speed of the vehicle.

[0064] In specific implementation, the electronic shifting may include EPB or may not include this architecture for monitoring the electronic shifting.

[0065] By adding a monitoring strategy for the Electronic Park Brake (EPB) signal, when the L2 layer does not enable EPB, if the L1 layer enables EPB, the following judgment is made based on the vehicle speed:

[0066] When the gear function monitoring layer does not enable the EPB and the gear function layer enables the EPB, whether to enable the EPB is determined according to the current vehicle speed.

[0067] Furthermore, when the gear function monitoring layer enables the EPB signal, whether to enable the EPB is determined based on the current vehicle speed. That is, when the L2 layer enables the EPB signal, regardless of whether the L1 layer enables EPB, whether to enable EPB is determined directly based on the above strategy.

[0068] It will be understood that the above speeds and distances are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application.

[0069] In one embodiment of the present application, determining whether to enable the EPB based on the current vehicle speed includes: if the absolute value of the vehicle speed is not greater than a preset speed, enabling the EPB and the gear signal is switched to neutral; if the absolute value of the vehicle speed is greater than the preset speed, not enabling the EPB and maintaining the current gear.

[0070] In specific implementation, if the absolute value of the vehicle speed is less than or equal to 2 km / h, for example, EPB is enabled and the gear position signal is switched to N. If the absolute value of the vehicle speed is greater than 2 km / h, for example, EPB is not enabled and the current gear position is maintained.

[0071] It will be understood that the above speeds and distances are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application.

[0072] In one embodiment of the present application, the vehicle gear information includes: D forward gear, R reverse gear, and N neutral gear. The target gear actually output in the vehicle gear information is determined according to the gear function layer and the gear function monitoring layer, wherein the gear function monitoring layer includes a monitoring strategy based on the custom safety level generated by the gear function layer, including: when the gear signal of the gear function monitoring layer is D, if the gear function layer outputs the gear signal D, then the target gear is D, if the gear function layer outputs the gear signal N, then the target gear is N; if the gear function layer outputs the gear signal R, then the target gear is N; when the gear function monitoring layer gear is N, the target gear is output as N; when the gear function monitoring layer gear is R, if the gear function layer gear signal is D, then the target gear is N, if the gear function layer outputs the gear signal N, then the target gear is N; if the gear function layer outputs the gear signal R, then the target gear is R.

[0073] In specific implementation, taking commercial vehicles as an example, the functional gear refers to the gear signal issued by the gear function layer L1; the safety gear refers to the gear signal issued by the gear function monitoring layer L2; and the target gear refers to the gear signal finally output.

[0074] Based on this architecture and the gear output strategy designed for new energy vehicles, the vehicle has three gears: D, R, and N. D is the forward gear, R is the reverse gear, and N is the neutral gear. The specific strategy is shown in Table 1 below:

[0075] Table 1

[0076]

[0077] When the L2 gear signal is D, if the L1 output gear signal is D, the target gear is D; if the L1 output gear signal is N, the target gear is N; if the L1 output gear signal is R, the target gear is N.

[0078] When the L2 gear is N, the target gear output is N.

[0079] When the L2 gear position is R, if the L1 gear position signal is D, the target gear position is N; if the L1 gear position signal is N, the target gear position is N; if the L1 gear position signal output is R, the target gear position is R. In this way, there will be no gear jump.

[0080] In one embodiment of the present application, before determining the target gear actually output in the vehicle gear information based on the gear function layer and the gear function monitoring layer, it also includes: powering on the vehicle high-voltage system and starting gear monitoring in torque mode.

[0081] In specific implementation, when deciding whether to start the monitoring program, the vehicle's high-voltage system needs to be powered on and gear position monitoring needs to be started in torque mode. Gear position monitoring will only be started when the vehicle's high-voltage system is powered on and in torque mode.

[0082] The embodiment of the present application also provides a gear position monitoring device 300, such as Figure 3 , a schematic structural diagram of a gear position monitoring device according to an embodiment of the present application is provided. The gear position monitoring device 300 includes at least: a collection module 310 and a gear position determination module 320, wherein:

[0083] In one embodiment of the present application, the acquisition module 310 is specifically configured to collect vehicle gear information, wherein the vehicle gear information includes gear information of an electronic gear lever.

[0084] The vehicle gear position information is collected, and the vehicle gear position information includes the gear position information of the electronic gear lever. Other information related to the vehicle gear position information may be taken into account, but at least the gear position information of the electronic gear lever must be included. For example, commercial vehicles generally do not have a P gear, while other types of vehicles do have a P gear.

[0085] Furthermore, the gear position information of the electronic gear lever collected refers to the gear position information of the upper system, not the gear position information of the motor, transmission, etc. in the lower system. Alternatively, it can be considered as collection at the computer program level.

[0086] In one embodiment of the present application, the gear determination module 320 is specifically used to determine the target gear actually output in the vehicle gear information based on the gear function layer and the gear function monitoring layer, wherein the gear function monitoring layer includes a monitoring strategy based on a custom safety level generated by the gear function layer.

[0087] According to the gear function layer and the gear function monitoring layer, the target gear actually output in the vehicle gear information is comprehensively determined. It should be noted that the gear function monitoring layer is used to monitor the gear function layer.

[0088] The gear function monitoring layer includes a monitoring strategy based on the custom safety level generated by the gear function layer. This custom safety level is primarily related to the actual application scenario, with different safety levels in different scenarios. This monitoring strategy is primarily used to prevent the gear function layer from directly outputting gear information without corresponding verification or monitoring mechanisms. Furthermore, this monitoring strategy also prioritizes gear output fault tolerance and driving safety.

[0089] In some embodiments, the gear output by the gear function layer can be optimized through the gear function monitoring layer to better meet the requirements of safe driving.

[0090] In some embodiments, the safety level of the gear function monitoring layer is higher than that of the gear function layer, but its priority is lower than that of the gear function layer, so that the gear function layer can be given priority but if the safety policy is triggered, the gear function monitoring layer will perform a fallback operation to prevent gear output operations that affect safety.
