Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of vehicle autonomous driving map technology, and in particular to a vehicle-side map update method and device based on location and attributes. Background Technology

[0002] Maps are fundamental to autonomous driving, playing a crucial role in autonomous driving planning and decision-making, beyond-line-of-sight perception, and assisted localization, serving as a basic digital platform. Autonomous driving demands extremely high map accuracy and freshness. Map data is vast and complex, and given the constraints of vehicle computing and storage capabilities, achieving seamless map data updates for all vehicles is difficult and wasteful of resources. Autonomous vehicles' map data requirements are strongly characterized by location (region) and attributes (vehicle information). Location refers to the road or area where the vehicle is currently positioned, such as the current road, frequently used areas, and other roads connected to the current road. Attributes refer to properties related to the vehicle and its passengers that influence vehicle decisions, such as vehicle type (truck, car), vehicle status, and passenger preferences. Currently, there is no map update mechanism specifically designed for these characteristics. Reducing the map update content for autonomous vehicles based on these "location and attribute" characteristics effectively improves update transmission efficiency and enables vehicle-centric autonomous updates. Therefore, developing a vehicle-side map update method and device based on location and attributes can effectively overcome the shortcomings of the aforementioned related technologies, and has become a technical problem that the industry urgently needs to solve.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. In addition, the technical features of the various embodiments or individual embodiments provided by the present invention can be arbitrarily combined with each other to form feasible technical solutions. Such combinations are not constrained by the order of steps and / or structural composition patterns, but must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.

[0024] This invention provides a method for updating vehicle-side maps based on location and attributes. See [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 The method includes: determining whether the vehicle is stationary or in motion; if the vehicle is stationary, updating the vehicle-side map for stationary vehicles; if the vehicle is in motion, updating the vehicle-side map for in motion vehicles.

[0025] Based on the above method embodiments, as an optional embodiment, the vehicle-side map update method based on location and attributes provided in this embodiment of the invention, wherein if the vehicle is in a stationary state, the vehicle-side map is updated for the stationary vehicle, including: Step 1.1: Obtain the vehicle's current location, active area, and current driving task, and calculate the circumscribed rectangle based on the active area and driving trajectory; Step 1.2: Calculate the map segment block number where the area is located based on the coordinates of the circumscribed rectangle; Step 1.3: The vehicle requests the cloud to update the static data of the relevant block map, and uploads the block number and the vehicle-side map version number; Step 1.4: After receiving the request, the cloud determines whether the corresponding block map has content updates; Step 1.5: The vehicle receives the data and completes the vehicle-side map update based on the returned content.

[0026] Based on the above method embodiments, as an optional embodiment, the vehicle-side map update method based on location and attributes provided in this embodiment of the invention includes the following steps: after the cloud receives the request, it determines whether there is a content update for the corresponding block map, including: if there is a content update, the vehicle-side transmits relevant data; if there is no content update, relevant parameters are returned.

[0027] Based on the above method embodiments, as an optional embodiment, the vehicle-side map update method based on location and attributes provided in this embodiment of the invention, wherein if the vehicle is in a driving state, the vehicle-side map is updated, including: Step 2.1: Obtain the real-time location of the vehicle, generate a rectangle centered on the vehicle based on the real-time location of the vehicle, and obtain the boundary coordinates of the rectangle; Step 2.2: Extract semantic content from the vehicle sensor and camera data obtained in Step 2.1, and initially generate the vehicle's surrounding situation; Step 2.3: Generate a request content list based on attributes based on the obtained vehicle status and user data; Step 2.4: Upload the results calculated in Steps 2.1 and 2.3 to the cloud, and request dynamic information in the relevant area; Step 2.5: The cloud receives the request, and performs dynamic data organization and transmission according to the area range and the request content list uploaded by the vehicle; Step 2.6: The vehicle receives the data transmitted from the cloud, and merges and deduplicates the cloud data and the vehicle-side perception data; Step 2.7: Complete the fusion update of the vehicle-side dynamic data to facilitate subsequent planning.

[0028] Based on the above method embodiments, as an optional embodiment, the vehicle-side map update method based on location and attributes provided in this embodiment of the invention includes generating a rectangle centered on the vehicle based on the real-time location of the vehicle, which includes generating a rectangle centered on the vehicle with side lengths of 50 meters and 500 meters respectively.

[0029] The vehicle-side map update method based on location and attributes provided in this invention provides corresponding personalized vehicle-side map update rules according to the driving preferences and regional characteristics of autonomous vehicles. This effectively addresses the insufficient storage and computing power of autonomous vehicles, reduces the time and storage costs caused by indiscriminate updates by autonomous vehicles, meets the needs of vehicle-side autonomous map updates, and realizes intelligent map updates.

[0030] In another embodiment, Figure 4 The technical process of updating static maps before vehicles travel is demonstrated, and this update emphasizes the update method based on the principle of territoriality.

[0031] In step 1, the active area refers to the area where the vehicle frequently travels. For example, even if the vehicle is located in area A, it may frequently be active in area B. In this case, the active area should include both A and B. The current driving task is the area along the path from the current location to the target location. The minimum bounding rectangle is calculated to ensure that both the active area and the driving task are within the update range. If the vehicle has never been to area a, the map data for area a will not be updated for a long time; it will only be updated when a driving task passes through area a.

[0032] In step 2, the zone / block number refers to the zone / block storage number adopted during map design. Map storage and updates are performed on a block-by-block basis, which differs from administrative divisions. Therefore, the smallest bounding rectangle is calculated, and the updated block number is determined based on the rectangle's boundary and the block boundary. During map updates, only the content of the block containing the area needs to be updated.

[0033] In step 3, the map version number refers to the version number of the map when the vehicle updates. Different blocks of the cloud map will be updated as the vehicle collects information. Each update of each block will have a corresponding version number. Therefore, the version number of the vehicle data is compared with the version number of the block in the cloud to determine whether an update has been made.

[0034] After the vehicle completes the map update for the corresponding area in step 5, the version number needs to be updated to the latest version.

[0035] Figure 5 The technical process of updating map data while vehicles are in motion was demonstrated. This update targets dynamic data while vehicles are in motion and emphasizes the principle of "location plus attributes".

[0036] Step 1 acquires the vehicle's real-time location and the current road conditions, generating rectangular areas centered on the vehicle with a radius of 50m and 500m. The 50m area is easily accessible to onboard sensors and cameras, and is also the area of ​​greatest interest to the vehicle during driving, requiring the acquisition of the most dynamic information. This dynamic information includes information on surrounding pedestrians, traffic lights, and the status of surrounding vehicles. The 500m area represents information at a meso-scale for the vehicle, and dynamic information acquisition relies on cloud transmission.

[0037] In step 2, the preliminary generation of the vehicle's surrounding situation refers to the initial results after the vehicle-side processing of sensor and camera data. The dynamic information in step 1 corresponds to the 50m area, which is the information before and after the current road or road intersection. Subsequently, in step 6, it will be merged and deduplicated with the 50m area data transmitted from the cloud to obtain complete real-time road information and vehicle dynamic information within 50m.

[0038] In step 3, vehicle status refers to vehicle type, speed, and body coefficient, while user data refers to passenger and driver preferences, such as preferences for speed and steering. Based on these requirements, a personalized request list is determined.

[0039] In step 5, dynamic data is strongly correlated with roads. The cloud uses the current road and the 50m and 500m outer rectangular query area uploaded in step 4 to query the roads and real-time information (traffic lights, real-time congestion information) and vehicle dynamic information on the roads. Then, the queried data is filtered and screened according to the request content list, and reorganized according to the data format. In step 6, it is fused with the vehicle-side perception data.

[0040] Figure 6 This is a diagram illustrating map data updates during vehicle movement. It shows how a vehicle locates its current road while driving and requests dynamic data updates from the cloud based on its real-time location and vehicle status information. The cloud then transmits the data to the vehicle based on the requested list.

[0041] The implementation of the various embodiments of the present invention is based on programmed processing by a device with processor functionality. Therefore, in practical engineering, the technical solutions and functions of the various embodiments of the present invention can be encapsulated into various modules.

This effectively addresses the insufficient storage and computing power of autonomous vehicles, reduces the time and storage costs associated with indiscriminate updates by autonomous vehicles, meets the needs of autonomous map updates driven by vehicle requirements, and achieves intelligent map updates.
