Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of vehicle control technology, and in particular to a method for correcting the position of a following vehicle and related equipment. Background Art

[0002] When vehicles are traveling in platoon, a tail vortex negative pressure area can be formed behind the leading vehicle. The total pressure in the above tail vortex negative pressure area is relatively small. As the following distance shortens, the influence of the tail vortex negative pressure area of ​​the leading vehicle on the following vehicle becomes greater, and the drag reduction effect becomes better. Therefore, the following vehicle can be controlled to travel in the above tail vortex negative pressure area of ​​the leading vehicle to reduce the pressure difference resistance, thereby achieving economical driving with low energy consumption, low pollution and high fuel efficiency.

[0003] However, in order to improve fuel economy, the current vehicle formation driving method usually controls the vehicle to drive in the same lane and at a close following distance as the vehicle in front.

[0047] The embodiments will be described in detail below, and examples thereof are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The implementation methods described in the following embodiments do not represent all implementation methods consistent with the present application.

In the several embodiments provided in the embodiments of the present application, it should be understood that the disclosed devices and methods can also be implemented in other ways, and the device embodiments described below are merely exemplary.

[0048] This application provides a method for correcting the position of a following vehicle, such as Figure 1 As shown, including:

[0049] Step S110: Acquire image information of the preceding vehicle.

[0050] Exemplarily, the forward-looking vision system of the current vehicle may include, for example, a vehicle-mounted radar system and a vehicle-mounted image acquisition system, to sense a sensing component of the preceding vehicle, wherein the sensing component may be installed directly in front of and / or in front of the side of the preceding vehicle, to obtain image information of the preceding vehicle.

[0051] Step S120: Determine the vehicle type information of the preceding vehicle based on the image information of the preceding vehicle.

[0052] Exemplarily, based on the image information of the preceding vehicle, the vehicle model information of the preceding vehicle can be obtained, the vehicle model information of the preceding vehicle can be searched in a database, and based on the vehicle model information, the vehicle type information of the preceding vehicle can be determined, wherein the vehicle type information is vehicle grade information, such as A-class sedan, B-class sedan, C-class sedan, D-class sedan, E-class sedan, S-class sedan, pickup trucks and SUV vehicles.

[0053] Step S130: determining modification information of the preceding vehicle based on the image information of the preceding vehicle and the vehicle type information of the preceding vehicle.

[0054] Exemplarily, based on the vehicle type information and the image information of the preceding vehicle, the modification information of the preceding vehicle may be determined by comparing the preceding vehicle standard shape information and the preceding vehicle current shape information determined based on the image information of the preceding vehicle.

[0055] Step S140: selecting a corresponding three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model based on the modification information of the preceding vehicle and the vehicle type information.

[0056] Exemplarily, based on the modification information of the preceding vehicle, when the preceding vehicle has been modified, the three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model corresponding to the modification information of the preceding vehicle can be determined based on the vehicle type information.

[0057] Step S150: correcting the following position of the current vehicle according to the three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model.

[0058] Exemplarily, parameters may be input into the three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model to correct the following vehicle position of the current vehicle.

[0059] According to some embodiments, the method further comprises:

[0060] Obtaining appearance data information of modified objects of different vehicle types under different modification information;

[0061] Determine a corresponding three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model based on the above-mentioned modification object appearance data information;

[0062] A corresponding relationship between the above-mentioned modified object appearance data information and the three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model is established.

[0063] Exemplarily, the conventional modification method of a vehicle can be determined by the vehicle type, for example: a sedan or SUV vehicle can be equipped with a roof storage box on the top of the vehicle, a pickup truck can be equipped with a cover or storage box above the cargo box, pickup trucks, SUV vehicles and sedans can be equipped with a trailer or RV at the rear of the vehicle, and a commercial vehicle can be equipped with a fake fairing on the top of the cockpit. The appearance data information of the conventional modified objects can be obtained through the different conventional modification methods of the above-mentioned different vehicle types, and the corresponding three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model can be preset according to the appearance data information of the above-mentioned conventional modified objects.

[0064] According to the appearance data information of the modified objects under different modification information of different vehicle types, the corresponding three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model is preset. When the preceding vehicle has been modified, the corresponding three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model can be directly called up to improve the correction speed and efficiency and simplify the operation.

[0065] According to some embodiments, the determining of the modification information of the preceding vehicle based on the image information of the preceding vehicle and the vehicle type information of the preceding vehicle includes:

[0066] Based on the vehicle type information of the preceding vehicle, determining the vehicle appearance data information of the preceding vehicle in a factory state;

[0067] Based on the image information of the preceding vehicle and the vehicle appearance data information of the preceding vehicle in a factory state, modification information of the preceding vehicle is determined.

[0068] Exemplarily, based on the vehicle type information of the preceding vehicle, the model information of the preceding vehicle can be obtained. Based on the model information of the preceding vehicle, the vehicle appearance data information of the preceding vehicle in the factory state can be obtained by querying the database. Based on the image information of the preceding vehicle, the current vehicle appearance data information of the preceding vehicle can be obtained. The modification information of the preceding vehicle can be determined by comparing the vehicle appearance data information of the preceding vehicle in the factory state with the current vehicle appearance data information.

[0069] By comparing the vehicle appearance data information of the preceding vehicle in the factory state with the current vehicle appearance data information, the modification information of the preceding vehicle can be quickly determined, thereby facilitating improvement of correction speed and correction efficiency.

[0070] According to some embodiments, the selecting of the corresponding three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model based on the modification information of the preceding vehicle and the vehicle type information includes:

[0071] When the modification information of the preceding vehicle matches the appearance data information of the modification object of the vehicle type to which the preceding vehicle belongs, a three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model corresponding to the appearance data information of the modification object of the preceding vehicle is obtained.

[0072] Exemplarily, the modification information may be matched with the modified object appearance information corresponding to the three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model corresponding to the vehicle to which the preceding vehicle belongs, and when the information matches, the corresponding three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model is obtained.

[0073] By matching the modification information of the preceding vehicle with the preset modified object appearance data information, it is possible to quickly determine whether the modified object is a conventional modified object. If the modified object is a conventional modified object, the preset three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model can be directly called to improve the correction speed and efficiency and simplify the operation.

[0074] According to some embodiments, the above-mentioned correction of the following position of the current vehicle according to the above-mentioned three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model includes:

[0075] Based on the three-dimensional flow field simulation factory model of the preceding vehicle, a coordinate simulation value of a position where the tail vortex negative pressure of the preceding vehicle is relatively strong is obtained;

[0076] Based on the three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model of the preceding vehicle, the modification information and the coordinate simulation value of the position where the tail vortex negative pressure of the preceding vehicle is relatively strong, the coordinate correction value of the position where the tail vortex negative pressure of the preceding vehicle is relatively strong is determined.

[0077] Exemplarily, based on the vehicle type information of the preceding vehicle, the three-dimensional flow field simulation factory model of the preceding vehicle can be obtained, and based on the three-dimensional flow field simulation factory model of the preceding vehicle, the coordinate simulation value of the position where the wake vortex negative pressure of the preceding vehicle is stronger can be obtained. The coordinate simulation value of the position where the wake vortex negative pressure of the preceding vehicle is stronger can be input into the three-dimensional flow field simulation modified model of the preceding vehicle to obtain the coordinate correction value of the position where the wake vortex negative pressure of the preceding vehicle is stronger.

[0078] For example, when the vehicle types are A-class cars, B-class cars, C-class cars, D-class cars, E-class cars, S-class cars and SUV vehicles, and a roof storage box is installed, based on the different size information of the roof storage box, the corresponding three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model is determined as:

[0079] (a*x0+x1,b*y0+y1,c*z0+z1)(1)

[0080] Among them, in formula (1), a, b, and c are correction coefficients, x0, y0, and z0 are the coordinate simulation values ​​of the position where the tail vortex negative pressure of the front vehicle is strong, and x1, y1, and z1 are correction constant terms. The values ​​of the above correction coefficients and correction constant terms are related to the size information of the above roof storage box.

[0081] For example, when the vehicle type is a pickup truck and a cargo box cover is installed, based on the different size information of the cargo box cover, the corresponding three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model is determined as:

[0082] (d*x0+x3,e*y0+y4,f*z0+z5)(2)

[0083] Among them, d, e, and f in formula (2) are correction coefficients, x0, y0, and z0 are the coordinate simulation values ​​of the position where the tail vortex negative pressure of the front vehicle is stronger, and x3, y4, and z5 are correction constant terms. The values ​​of the above correction coefficients and correction constant terms are related to the size information of the above cargo box cover.

[0084] For example, when the vehicle types are pickup trucks, SUV vehicles, and sedans, and towing trailers or RVs, based on the different size information of the trailers or RVs, the corresponding three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model is determined as:

[0085] (g*x0+x6,h*y0+y7,i*z0+z8)(3)

[0086] Among them, in formula (3), g, h, i are correction coefficients, x0, y0, z0 are the coordinate simulation values ​​of the position where the tail vortex negative pressure of the front vehicle is stronger, x6, y7, z8 are correction constant terms, and the values ​​of the above correction coefficients and correction constant terms are related to the size information of the above trailer or RV.

[0087] For example, when the vehicle type is a light truck or a heavy truck, and a deflector is installed on the top of the cockpit, based on the different size information of the deflector, the corresponding three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model is determined as: (j*x0+x9, k*y0+y 10 ,l*z0+z 11 )(4)

[0088] In formula (4), j, k, and l are correction coefficients, x0, y0, and z0 are the coordinate simulation values ​​of the position where the tail vortex negative pressure of the preceding vehicle is stronger, and x9, y 10 、z 11 To correct the constant term, the values ​​of the correction coefficient and the correction constant term are related to the size information of the above-mentioned air deflector.

[0089] By correcting the coordinate simulation value of the position with stronger tail vortex negative pressure of the preceding vehicle based on the modification information of the preceding vehicle, the position with stronger tail vortex negative pressure of the preceding vehicle in the current state can be determined more accurately, making it easier for the current vehicle to control the driving state of the vehicle according to the above position, thereby reducing the resistance of the current vehicle during driving, improving fuel economy, and saving energy.

[0090] According to some embodiments, the method further comprises:

[0091] Obtain lane information of the preceding vehicle;

[0092] Obtaining the following vehicle position correction information of the current vehicle according to the three-dimensional flow field simulation modification model;

[0093] Determining the following position of the current vehicle based on the lane information of the preceding vehicle and the following position correction information of the current vehicle;

[0094] Based on the following vehicle position of the current vehicle, the following vehicle state of the current vehicle is controlled.

[0095] Exemplarily, the lane information of the preceding vehicle can be acquired through the on-board radar system and / or image acquisition device of the current vehicle in combination with the on-board GPS positioning system, and the following position of the above-mentioned current vehicle can be sent to the vehicle management system, and a control signal can be sent to the vehicle controller through the vehicle management system to control the vehicle at the following position of the above-mentioned current vehicle.

[0096] Combined with the lane information of the leading vehicle, more accurate information on the negative pressure area of ​​the tail vortex of the leading vehicle can be obtained. At the same time, when the leading vehicle and the current vehicle are in different lanes, the distance between the current vehicle and the leading vehicle can be controlled to be as close as possible. When the leading vehicle and the current vehicle are in the same lane, the following position of the current vehicle can be controlled in combination with relevant regulations to ensure safety and legality during driving and improve fuel economy.

[0097] According to some embodiments, the three-dimensional flow field simulation factory model of the preceding vehicle is used to obtain the coordinate simulation value of the position where the tail vortex negative pressure of the preceding vehicle is relatively strong, including:

[0098] Obtaining the crosswind speed at the current position of the vehicle;

[0099] Obtain the direction simulation parameters of the current vehicle;

[0100] Obtaining the vehicle speed simulation parameters of the preceding vehicle;

[0101] Based on the crosswind speed at the current vehicle's position, the direction simulation parameters of the current vehicle, the speed simulation parameters of the preceding vehicle and the three-dimensional flow field simulation factory model of the preceding vehicle, the coordinate simulation value of the position where the tail vortex negative pressure of the preceding vehicle is stronger is obtained.

[0102] Exemplarily, the above-mentioned side wind speed can be obtained through the wind sensor of the current vehicle, the direction simulation parameters of the current vehicle can be obtained through the vehicle management system or wheel sensor of the current vehicle, and the speed simulation parameters of the preceding vehicle can be obtained through the on-board radar system and on-board image acquisition system of the current vehicle.

[0103] Through the three-dimensional flow field simulation model of the leading vehicle, the coordinate simulation value of the position where the tail vortex negative pressure of the leading vehicle is stronger can be obtained, which is convenient for controlling the following position of the current vehicle and making the vehicle travel in the tail vortex negative pressure area of ​​the leading vehicle, thereby improving the vehicle's drag reduction effect, reducing the energy consumption of the current vehicle, improving fuel utilization efficiency and economy, and saving energy.
