[0053] The embodiment of the application provides a vehicle passive safety control method, which refers to Figure 2 , Figure 2 The flowchart of the first embodiment of the vehicle passive safety control method of the application.
[0054] In this embodiment, the vehicle passive safety control method includes the following steps:
[0055] Step S10: upon receiving the collision state information sent by the auxiliary driving system of the vehicle, the reverse acceleration and the collision speed of the vehicle are obtained according to the collision state information.
[0056] It is easy to understand that the execution subject of the embodiment can be a vehicle passive safety control device with functions of data processing, network communication and program running, or other computer devices with similar functions, and the embodiment is not limited thereto.
[0057] It should be noted that the auxiliary driving system can obtain whole vehicle state related information, including but not limited to wheel speed, vehicle speed, acceleration, steering wheel angle, etc. According to the environmental perception ability of ultrasonic radar, laser radar, millimeter wave radar, camera, etc., the distance S of the obstacle is calculated. According to the environmental perception ability of ultrasonic radar, laser radar, millimeter wave radar, camera, etc., the obstacle type can also be classified.
[0058] In the embodiment, the distance S of the obstacle is calculated in real time according to the environmental perception ability of ultrasonic radar, laser radar, millimeter wave radar, camera, etc., and a preset distance threshold S0 is set, usually S0 is greater than 2m, when the distance S of the obstacle from the vehicle is less than or equal to S0, the system is activated, and the collision risk is continuously calculated, when S=0 is detected, the auxiliary driving system sends the calculated collision target type, collision occurrence information, collision direction information, intrusion distance information, etc. to the airbag controller or passive safety controller.
[0059] It should be noted that the collision state information includes collision target type, collision occurrence information, collision direction information, intrusion distance information, wheel speed, vehicle speed, acceleration, steering wheel angle, collision distance, etc.
[0060] In specific implementation, vehicle passive safety configuration information and vehicle type information of the vehicle can be obtained, and then the surrounding area of the vehicle is divided according to the vehicle passive safety configuration information and the vehicle type information, to obtain a plurality of collision direction information.
[0061] It should also be understood that the reference Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a vehicle surrounding area division diagram for the first embodiment of the vehicle passive safety control method of the application, in which the collision direction can be distinguished according to the vehicle passive safety configuration and the vehicle type. Taking a conventional five-seat car as an example, different areas are divided within the vehicle surrounding S0 range, and the collision direction information includes front, right front, right side 1, right side 2, right side 3, right side 4, right rear, rear, left front, left side 1, left side 2, left side 3, left side 4, left rear.
[0062] Step S20: determining vehicle collision energy information based on the current global map of the vehicle environment.
[0063] Further, the processing manner for determining the vehicle collision energy information based on the current environment global map of the vehicle is that: obtaining current environment obstacle information through vehicle sensors, constructing a current environment global map of the vehicle according to the current environment obstacle information and vehicle position information, constructing a vehicle collision coordinate system according to the target collision position information based on the current environment global map, determining the lateral and longitudinal collision displacement according to the vehicle collision coordinate system, obtaining the collision angle according to the lateral and longitudinal collision displacement, and determining the vehicle collision energy information through the collision energy table according to the collision displacement and the collision angle.
[0064] It should also be understood that the vehicle collision energy information includes vehicle collision energy strong and vehicle collision energy weak.
[0065] In the embodiment, generally, a collision with lower energy is not enough to cause the position deviation or abnormality of all sensors of the vehicle. The sensors outside the collision position are selected, and a global map of the current environment of the vehicle is constructed relying on the static targets in the field of view of the sensors, such as street lamp poles, trees, road signs, etc. Then, the collision distance is calculated based on the global map of the current environment of the vehicle by the ranging information of the sensors combined with the GPS and IMU information. The vehicle collision energy information is determined by the lateral collision displacement S x , the longitudinal collision displacement S y , and the collision angle θ of the vehicle in a very short time after the collision. First, the collision position is determined, and then the lateral collision displacement S x of the vehicle in a very short time after the collision is greater than the preset threshold S x in the collision energy table, the longitudinal collision displacement S y is greater than the preset threshold S y , and the collision angle θ is greater than the preset threshold θ. In this case, the vehicle collision energy information is vehicle collision energy strong. The lateral collision displacement S x of the vehicle in a very short time after the collision is less than or equal to the preset threshold S x in the collision energy table, the longitudinal collision displacement S y is less than or equal to the preset threshold S y , and the collision angle θ is less than or equal to the preset threshold θ. In this case, the vehicle collision energy information is vehicle collision energy weak.
[0066] In the specific implementation, reference is made to Figure 4 , Figure 4For the vehicle collision coordinate diagram of the first embodiment of the vehicle passive safety control method of the present application, if the collision occurrence direction is front right and the collision occurrence time is T0, a two-dimensional projection coordinate system is established with the center of the rear axle of the vehicle as the coordinate origin, there is a stationary obstacle behind the vehicle that can be simultaneously detected by the rear sensors, the distance between the rear sensors in the X direction is set as W, the coordinates of the center line of the rear sensors at T0 are (x0, y0), the straight-line distance of the obstacle from the left sensor at T0 is S 左0 , the straight-line distance from the right sensor is S 右0 , at T1 after the collision, the coordinates of the center line of the rear sensors at T1 are (x1, y1), the straight-line distance of the same obstacle from the left sensor at T1 is S 左1 , the straight-line distance from the right sensor is S 右1 ; the coordinates of the obstacle at T0 are (x 障 , y 障 ), T1 and T0 are generally separated by less than 50 ms, the X direction moving distance S x of the vehicle from T0 to T1 after the collision is |x0-x1|, the Y direction moving distance S y of the vehicle from T0 to T1 after the collision is |y0-y1|, and the yaw angle of the vehicle from T0 to T1 after the collision is:
[0067]
[0068] In this embodiment, the collision energy threshold of the auxiliary driving system is set, and the following table is referred to, which is the collision energy table:
[0069]
[0070]
[0071] Step S30: vehicle passive safety control according to the reverse acceleration, collision speed and vehicle collision energy information.
[0072] Further, the processing mode of the vehicle passive safety control according to the reverse acceleration, the collision speed and the vehicle collision energy information is that whether the reverse acceleration is greater than a preset reverse acceleration threshold value and whether the collision speed is greater than a preset collision threshold value are judged, when the reverse acceleration is less than or equal to the preset reverse acceleration threshold value and the collision speed is greater than the preset collision threshold value, whether the vehicle collision energy information satisfies a preset energy condition is judged, when the vehicle collision energy information satisfies the preset energy condition, whether the collision target type is a pedestrian collision type is judged, if not, the airbag controller or the passive safety controller of the vehicle is controlled to work the passive safety device, and the off-vehicle pedestrian protection system is controlled not to work; if yes, the airbag controller or the passive safety controller of the vehicle is controlled to work the passive safety device, and the off-vehicle pedestrian protection system is controlled to work.
[0073] It also needs to be explained that the preset energy condition is that the vehicle collision energy information is a strong vehicle collision energy.
[0074] In the embodiment, whether the reverse acceleration is greater than a preset reverse acceleration threshold value and whether the collision speed is greater than a preset collision threshold value are judged, when the reverse acceleration is greater than the preset reverse acceleration threshold value and the collision speed is less than the preset collision threshold value, when the vehicle collision energy information does not satisfy or satisfies the preset energy condition, the passive safety device does not work.
[0075] When whether the reverse acceleration is greater than a preset reverse acceleration threshold value and whether the collision speed is greater than a preset collision threshold value are judged, when the reverse acceleration is less than or equal to the preset reverse acceleration threshold value and the collision speed is greater than the preset collision threshold value, when the vehicle collision energy information does not satisfy the preset energy condition, the passive safety device does not work.
[0076] When whether the reverse acceleration is greater than a preset reverse acceleration threshold value and whether the collision speed is greater than a preset collision threshold value are judged, when the reverse acceleration is less than or equal to the preset reverse acceleration threshold value and the collision speed is greater than the preset collision threshold value, when the vehicle collision energy information satisfies the preset energy condition, the collision target type is determined according to the collision state information, whether the collision target type is a pedestrian collision type is judged, if yes, the airbag controller or the passive safety controller controls the passive safety device to work, the off-vehicle pedestrian protection system works, and the passive safety device on the corresponding side is controlled to work according to the collision direction; if not, the airbag controller or the passive safety controller controls the passive safety device to work, the off-vehicle pedestrian protection system does not work, and the passive safety device on the corresponding side is controlled to work according to the collision direction.
[0077] Further, it is judged whether the reverse acceleration is greater than a preset reverse acceleration threshold value and whether the collision speed is greater than a preset collision threshold value, when the reverse acceleration is greater than the preset reverse acceleration threshold value and the collision speed is greater than the preset collision threshold value, a collision target type is determined according to the collision state information, it is judged whether the collision target type is a pedestrian collision type, if yes, the airbag controller or the passive safety controller is controlled to work, and the outside pedestrian protection system and the in-vehicle occupant protection device are controlled to work, that is, the airbag controller or the passive safety controller controls the opening of the corresponding pedestrian protection device according to the preset logic, the outside pedestrian protection system works, the in-vehicle occupant protection device works, etc., if not, the outside pedestrian protection system does not work, and the in-vehicle occupant protection device works.
[0078] It is judged whether the reverse acceleration is greater than a preset reverse acceleration threshold value and whether the collision speed is greater than a preset collision threshold value, when the reverse acceleration is less than or equal to the preset reverse acceleration threshold value and the collision speed is greater than the preset collision threshold value, when the vehicle collision energy information does not satisfy the preset energy condition, the passive safety device does not work.
[0079] In the embodiment, when the collision state information sent by the auxiliary driving system of the vehicle is received, first, the reverse acceleration and the collision speed of the vehicle are obtained according to the collision state information, then the vehicle collision energy information is determined based on the current environment global map of the vehicle, and then the passive safety control of the vehicle is performed according to the reverse acceleration, the collision speed and the vehicle collision energy information. Compared with the prior art, the vehicle speed does not reach the range, the impact point is incorrect, and even if the collision energy is large, the airbag will not be correctly popped out, and the in-vehicle occupant cannot be effectively protected. In the embodiment, the vehicle collision is judged multiple times according to the reverse acceleration, the collision speed and the vehicle collision energy information, the passive safety control of the vehicle is performed, the utilization range of the existing resources of the auxiliary driving system is expanded, the independent active and passive safety system is expanded to be combined with the passive safety system, and the accuracy of the passive safety system is improved, and the safety of the vehicle is improved.
[0080] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 5 The flowchart of the second embodiment of the vehicle passive safety control method of the application is shown.
[0081] Based on the above-mentioned first embodiment, in the embodiment, the step S30 comprises:
[0082] Step S301: It is judged whether the reverse acceleration is greater than a preset reverse acceleration threshold value and whether the collision speed is greater than a preset collision threshold value.
[0083] It should be noted that the collision speed is the speed of the ego vehicle when the collision occurs. The preset acceleration threshold value and the preset collision threshold value can be set by the user, and the embodiment does not limit the values.
[0084] Further, it is judged whether the reverse acceleration is greater than a preset reverse acceleration threshold value and whether the collision speed is greater than a preset collision threshold value. When the reverse acceleration is greater than the preset reverse acceleration threshold value and the collision speed is greater than the preset collision threshold value, a collision target type is determined according to the collision state information, it is judged whether the collision target type is a pedestrian collision type. If yes, the airbag controller or the passive safety controller is controlled to work, and the out-of-vehicle pedestrian protection system and the in-vehicle occupant protection device are controlled to work, i.e. the airbag controller or the passive safety controller controls the opening of the corresponding pedestrian protection device according to the preset logic, the out-of-vehicle pedestrian protection system works, and the in-vehicle occupant protection device works. If no, the out-of-vehicle pedestrian protection system does not work, and the in-vehicle occupant protection device works.
[0085] It is judged whether the reverse acceleration is greater than a preset reverse acceleration threshold value and whether the collision speed is greater than a preset collision threshold value. When the reverse acceleration is greater than the preset reverse acceleration threshold value and the collision speed is less than the preset collision threshold value, the passive safety device does not work when the vehicle collision energy information does not satisfy or satisfies a preset energy condition.
[0086] Step S302: When the reverse acceleration is less than or equal to the preset reverse acceleration threshold value and the collision speed is greater than the preset collision threshold value, it is judged whether the vehicle collision energy information satisfies a preset energy condition.
[0087] It should also be understood that the vehicle collision energy information includes vehicle collision energy weak and vehicle collision energy strong, and the preset energy condition is that the vehicle collision energy information is vehicle collision energy strong.
[0088] Step S303: When the vehicle collision energy information satisfies the preset energy condition, it is judged whether the collision target type is a pedestrian collision type.
[0089] In this embodiment, it is judged whether the reverse acceleration is greater than a preset reverse acceleration threshold value and whether the collision speed is greater than a preset collision threshold value. When the reverse acceleration is less than or equal to the preset reverse acceleration threshold value and the collision speed is greater than the preset collision threshold value, the passive safety device does not work when the vehicle collision energy information does not satisfy the preset energy condition.
[0090] Step S304: If no, the airbag controller or the passive safety controller of the vehicle is controlled to work, and the out-of-vehicle pedestrian protection system is controlled not to work.
[0091] In the specific implementation, it is judged whether the reverse acceleration is greater than a preset reverse acceleration threshold and whether the collision speed is greater than a preset collision threshold, and when the reverse acceleration is less than or equal to the preset reverse acceleration threshold and the collision speed is greater than the preset collision threshold, it is judged whether the vehicle collision energy information satisfies a preset energy condition, and when the vehicle collision energy information satisfies the preset energy condition, the collision target type is determined according to the collision state information, it is judged whether the collision target type is a pedestrian collision type, if yes, the airbag controller or the passive safety controller controls the passive safety device to work, the out-of-vehicle pedestrian protection system works, and the passive safety device on the corresponding side is controlled to work according to the collision direction; if no, the airbag controller or the passive safety controller controls the passive safety device to work, the out-of-vehicle pedestrian protection system does not work, and the passive safety device on the corresponding side is controlled to work according to the collision direction.
[0092] In the embodiment, it is first judged whether the reverse acceleration is greater than a preset reverse acceleration threshold and whether the collision speed is greater than a preset collision threshold, and when the reverse acceleration is less than or equal to the preset reverse acceleration threshold and the collision speed is greater than the preset collision threshold, it is then judged whether the vehicle collision energy information satisfies a preset energy condition, and when the vehicle collision energy information satisfies the preset energy condition, it is then judged whether the collision target type is a pedestrian collision type, if no, the airbag controller or the passive safety controller of the vehicle is controlled to work the passive safety device, and the out-of-vehicle pedestrian protection system is controlled not to work. Compared with the prior art, the collision target is classified using a visual sensor, the collision target being a pedestrian is the highest priority condition for the pedestrian protection system to work, but if the visual target recognition is wrong and the pedestrian collision target is identified as a non-pedestrian, the pedestrian protection system cannot work effectively, and the safety redundancy of the pedestrian protection system is not enough; the pressure sensor is used to collect the pedestrian collision pressure value, but the collision pressure value measured by the pressure sensor is highly related to the collision position, if the collision position is not near the sensor, the detected collision pressure is insufficient, and the pedestrian protection system may not work normally, that is, cannot effectively protect pedestrians or reduce collision damage; and the prior art does not involve the work of the in-vehicle occupant passive safety system when the collision target is a non-pedestrian, but in the embodiment, different collision speeds, collision accelerations, collision distances and other thresholds can be set according to different collision directions, thereby improving the accuracy of the passive safety device working.
[0093] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 6 is a structural block diagram of a first embodiment of a vehicle passive safety control system of the present application.
[0094] As Figure 6 shown, the vehicle passive safety control system provided by the embodiment of the present application comprises:
[0095] The acquisition module 6001 is configured to acquire the reverse acceleration and the collision speed of the vehicle according to the collision state information when the collision state information sent by the auxiliary driving system of the vehicle is received.
[0096] It should be noted that the auxiliary driving system can acquire the whole vehicle state related information, including but not limited to wheel speed, vehicle speed, acceleration, steering wheel angle, etc. According to the environmental perception capability of ultrasonic radar, laser radar, millimeter wave radar, camera, etc., the distance S of the obstacle is calculated. According to the environmental perception capability of ultrasonic radar, laser radar, millimeter wave radar, camera, etc., the obstacle type can also be classified.
[0097] In this embodiment, the distance S of the obstacle is calculated in real time according to the environmental perception capability of ultrasonic radar, laser radar, millimeter wave radar, camera, etc., and a preset distance threshold S0 is set, which is usually set to be greater than 2m. When the distance S of the obstacle from the vehicle is less than or equal to S0, the system is activated, and the collision risk is continuously calculated. When S=0 is detected, the auxiliary driving system sends the collision target type, collision occurrence information, collision direction information, intrusion distance information, etc. calculated to the airbag controller or passive safety controller.
[0098] It should be noted that the collision state information includes collision target type, collision occurrence information, collision direction information, intrusion distance information, wheel speed, vehicle speed, acceleration, steering wheel angle, collision distance, etc.
[0099] In a specific implementation, the vehicle passive safety configuration information and the vehicle type information of the vehicle can be acquired, and then the surrounding area of the vehicle is divided according to the vehicle passive safety configuration information and the vehicle type information, to obtain a plurality of collision direction information.
[0100] It should also be understood that the reference Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a vehicle surrounding area division diagram for the first embodiment of the vehicle passive safety control method of the application. In the diagram, the collision direction can be distinguished according to the vehicle passive safety configuration and the vehicle type. Taking a conventional five-seat car as an example, different areas are divided within the vehicle surrounding S0 range. The collision direction information includes front, right front, right side 1, right side 2, right side 3, right side 4, right rear, rear, left front, left side 1, left side 2, left side 3, left side 4, and left rear.
[0101] The determination module 6002 is configured to determine the vehicle collision energy information based on the current global map of the vehicle environment.
[0102] Further, the processing manner for determining the vehicle collision energy information based on the current environment global map of the vehicle is as follows: acquiring current environment obstacle information through vehicle sensors, constructing a current environment global map of the vehicle according to the current environment obstacle information and vehicle position information, constructing a vehicle collision coordinate system according to the target collision position information based on the current environment global map, determining the lateral and longitudinal collision displacement according to the vehicle collision coordinate system, obtaining the collision angle according to the lateral and longitudinal collision displacement, and determining the vehicle collision energy information through the collision energy table according to the collision displacement and the collision angle.
[0103] It should also be understood that the vehicle collision energy information includes strong vehicle collision energy and weak vehicle collision energy.
[0104] In the embodiment, a collision with generally lower energy is not enough to cause the position deviation or abnormality of all sensors of the vehicle, sensors outside the collision position are selected, a global map of the current environment of the vehicle is constructed relying on static targets in the field of view of the sensors, such as street lamp poles, trees, road signs and the like, and then the collision distance is calculated based on the global map of the current environment of the vehicle by the ranging information of the sensors combined with the GPS and IMU information. The vehicle collision energy information is determined according to the lateral collision displacement S x , the longitudinal collision displacement S y and the collision angle θ of the vehicle in a very short time after the collision. First, the collision position is determined, and then the lateral collision displacement S x of the vehicle in a very short time after the collision is greater than a preset threshold S x , the longitudinal collision displacement S y is greater than a preset threshold S y , and the collision angle θ is greater than a preset threshold θ, the vehicle collision energy information is strong vehicle collision energy; the lateral collision displacement S x of the vehicle in a very short time after the collision is less than or equal to a preset threshold S x , the longitudinal collision displacement S y is less than or equal to a preset threshold S y , and the collision angle θ is less than or equal to a preset threshold θ, the vehicle collision energy information is weak vehicle collision energy.
