Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of vehicle diagnostic technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, device, and storage medium for diagnosing vehicle speed signals. Background Technology

[0002] Vehicle speed signals are not only a crucial input to the engine's electronic control system, directly affecting the normal operation of the entire vehicle's driving functions, but they also serve as monitoring conditions for multiple components within the electronic control system and are involved in the calculation of the common denominator for the monitoring frequency. According to the regulations in the "Limits and Measurement Methods for Pollutant Emissions from Light-Duty Vehicles," a rationality diagnosis of the vehicle speed signal is required.

[0003] The known diagnostic schemes for the rationality of vehicle speed signals are mainly as follows: First, the vehicle speed exceeds the vehicle's designed maximum speed; second, the vehicle speed signal and wheel speed signal are verified; third, the reference vehicle speed calculated using GPS signals is verified against the vehicle speed signal; fourth, under specific operating conditions, the reference vehicle speed is calculated based on engine speed, transmission ratio, and wheel radius, and verified against the vehicle speed signal.

[0004] The first solution described above diagnoses only a limited range of fault modes. Since most vehicles now calculate their speed signals using the chassis's electronic control system based on signals from four wheel speed sensors, rather than collecting data from a single sensor, the second solution has limited applicability. The third solution requires a GPS system, and its reliability decreases when the GPS signal is weak (e.g., in tunnels, in poor weather). The fourth solution cannot be used during gear shifting. Summary of the Invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a vehicle speed signal diagnostic method provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to situations involving the diagnosis of reasonableness faults in vehicle speed signals. The method can be executed by a vehicle speed signal diagnostic device, which can be implemented in hardware and / or software and can be configured in the vehicle controller. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0037] S110. Obtain the vehicle speed-related signals of the current vehicle, wherein the vehicle speed-related signals include vehicle speed signals and acceleration signals.

[0038] The vehicle speed signal refers to the speed information of the vehicle during its current driving process. This signal can be determined by the chassis controller through the speed of each wheel. The acceleration signal refers to the acceleration information of the vehicle during its current driving process, also determined by the chassis controller through the acceleration of each wheel. The vehicle speed signal is a crucial parameter for engine control of output torque and for the transmission controller to calculate shift points. If the vehicle speed signal is abnormal, the vehicle's power will suddenly change and abnormal gear shifting will occur. Shifting to a higher gear while climbing an incline will affect the vehicle's climbing performance; shifting to a lower gear at high speed will cause the engine speed to spike, reducing the vehicle's power and fuel economy, and potentially damaging the transmission. To ensure the safety of the vehicle and the driver, this implementation includes a diagnostic function for the vehicle speed signal.

[0039] Optionally, the vehicle speed-related signals can be acquired, including: acquiring the wheel speed and wheel acceleration of each sensor at the wheel; inputting each wheel speed and each wheel acceleration into a preset algorithm through the chassis controller to generate vehicle speed-related signals, wherein the vehicle speed signal and acceleration signal include valid information, and the valid information includes valid flags and invalid flags.

[0040] Specifically, the chassis controller inputs the acquired wheel speeds and accelerations into a preset algorithm for calculation. During the calculation, it determines the reliability of the vehicle speed or acceleration signal based on the magnitude of each wheel speed and acceleration. If reliable, it generates valid information containing a valid flag. If unreliable, the chassis controller will still generate vehicle speed and acceleration signals, but the valid information will contain an invalid flag. For example, if the chassis controller determines that the difference between the left and right wheel sensors is large, exceeding a preset difference threshold, it can still calculate a vehicle speed, but this speed is unreliable. The chassis will still generate a vehicle speed signal, but this signal will include an invalid flag. Of course, this embodiment only uses the comparison of the difference between the left and right wheel sensors to determine and generate valid information as an example. In practical applications, it can also determine whether there is a short circuit or open circuit fault in the circuit to generate valid information. This embodiment does not limit the method of generating valid information.

[0041] S120. Generate electrical fault diagnosis results based on vehicle speed-related signals.

[0042] Specifically, since both vehicle speed and acceleration signals contain valid information, electrical fault diagnosis results can be generated by identifying this valid information. Electrical faults refer to electrical faults in the wheel speed sensor or acceleration sensor involved in vehicle speed calculation, including circuit problems or out-of-range values ​​in the wheel speed sensor and the acceleration sensor.

[0043] S130. When the electrical fault diagnosis result is normal, generate the vehicle speed signal diagnosis result based on the vehicle speed related signal.

[0044] Specifically, if there is an electrical fault in the wheel speed sensor and acceleration sensor involved in vehicle speed calculation, it will affect the accuracy of the vehicle speed signal diagnosis results. Therefore, the controller will send a prompt message to the user client so that the user can promptly grasp the abnormal situation of the wheel speed sensor or acceleration sensor, so that the user can check and adjust the relevant sensors involved in vehicle speed calculation to ensure the accurate diagnosis of subsequent vehicle speed signals.

[0045] Figure 2 This invention provides a flowchart of a vehicle speed signal diagnosis method according to Embodiment 1. Step S130 mainly includes the following steps S131 to S136:

[0046] S131. When the electrical fault diagnosis result is normal, the reference acceleration is determined based on the vehicle speed signal.

[0047] Optionally, the reference acceleration is determined based on the vehicle speed signal, including: determining the gradient corresponding to the vehicle speed signal; obtaining a specified time range, calculating the ratio of the gradient to the specified time range, and generating the reference acceleration.

[0048] Specifically, when the electrical fault diagnosis result is normal, the reference acceleration of the vehicle can be calculated by differentiating the vehicle speed signal with respect to time. For example, the first-order backward differentiation of the discrete signal can be used, i.e., (vehicle speed at the current sampling point - vehicle speed at the previous sampling point) / sampling time, to calculate the reference acceleration.

[0049] S132. Perform low-pass filtering on the reference acceleration and acceleration signal to obtain a first acceleration and a second acceleration, wherein the first acceleration and the second acceleration are free of glitches and have the same phase.

[0050] Specifically, the controller can perform low-pass filtering on the reference acceleration to obtain the filtered first acceleration, and perform low-pass filtering on the acceleration signal to obtain the filtered second acceleration. The purpose of filtering is to remove signal glitches and make the signal more stable. Simultaneously, since the received vehicle speed signal and acceleration signal may not be synchronized, low-pass filtering can also adjust the phase and synchronize the signal. That is, the first and second accelerations after low-pass filtering are glitches-free and have the same phase. For example, a first-order hysteresis low-pass filtering method can be used, employing different calibrable filtering time constants for filtering the reference acceleration and acceleration signal. By calibrating the two time constants, the first and second acceleration signals are glitches-free and have the same phase.

[0051] S133. Determine the difference between the first acceleration and the second acceleration.

[0052] S134. Determine whether the difference is greater than or equal to the preset threshold. If yes, execute S135; otherwise, execute S136.

[0053] S135. Obtain the first duration. When the first duration is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, determine that the vehicle speed signal diagnosis result is abnormal.

[0054] Specifically, this can be achieved by determining the difference between the first and second accelerations. The difference refers to the absolute value of the difference between the two, i.e., calculating the difference between the filtered first and second accelerations and taking the absolute value. This difference is then compared to a preset threshold. The preset threshold is a calibrable parameter that users can adjust according to diagnostic needs. For example, the default preset threshold is 2 m / s². 2 When the difference is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, the controller acquires a first duration. When the first duration is greater than or equal to a second time threshold, i.e., the difference is greater than or equal to the preset threshold and persists for a certain period, the vehicle speed signal diagnostic result can be determined to be abnormal, indicating a reasonable fault in the vehicle speed signal. The second time threshold is a calibrable parameter, with a default value of 3000ms.

[0055] Optionally, after determining that the vehicle speed signal diagnosis result is abnormal, the method further includes: generating fault degradation information based on vehicle speed-related signals; and degrading the performance of the current vehicle based on the fault degradation information.

[0056] Specifically, after determining that the vehicle speed signal diagnostic result is abnormal, it can be judged that there is a reasonable fault in the vehicle speed signal and fault handling can be performed to degrade the vehicle's performance to enter a relatively safe state. At this time, the controller will generate fault degradation information based on vehicle speed-related signals, and then the current vehicle performance can be degraded to ensure the safety of personnel and vehicles, while meeting the in-use monitoring frequency requirements stipulated in regulations. Compared with existing technologies, the technical solution of this invention not only applies to a wider range of fault modes, but also allows for normal diagnosis even when the vehicle is shifting gears or in areas with weak GPS signals, such as tunnels, without interrupting the diagnosis process.

[0057] S136. Obtain the second duration. When the second duration is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, determine that the vehicle speed signal diagnosis result is normal.

[0058] Specifically, when the difference is less than the preset threshold, the controller will obtain the second duration. When the second duration is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, that is, after the difference is less than the preset threshold and continues for a period of time, it can be determined that the vehicle speed signal is in a reasonable ready state and there is no fault, that is, the vehicle speed signal diagnosis result is determined to be normal.

[0059] The technical solution of this invention determines the electrical fault diagnosis result by using the current vehicle speed signal and acceleration signal. When the electrical fault diagnosis result is normal, the vehicle speed signal diagnosis result is generated by using vehicle speed-related signals. This can accurately diagnose the reasonableness of the vehicle speed signal fault and degrade the vehicle performance to enter a relatively safe state, thereby ensuring the safety of personnel and vehicles. It also has a wider range of applications. Even if the vehicle is shifting gears or in a place with weak GPS signals, such as a tunnel, the diagnosis can still be carried out normally without interrupting the diagnosis.

[0060] Example 2

[0061] Figure 3 This is a flowchart of a vehicle speed signal diagnosis method provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. This embodiment adds a specific process for generating electrical fault diagnosis results based on vehicle speed-related signals, building upon Embodiment 1. The specific content of steps S210 and S270 is largely the same as steps S110 and S130 in Embodiment 1, and therefore will not be repeated in this embodiment. Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0062] S210. Obtain the vehicle speed-related signals of the current vehicle, wherein the vehicle speed-related signals include vehicle speed signals and acceleration signals.

[0063] Optionally, the vehicle speed-related signals can be acquired, including: acquiring the wheel speed and wheel acceleration of each sensor at the wheel; inputting each wheel speed and each wheel acceleration into a preset algorithm through the chassis controller to generate vehicle speed-related signals, wherein the vehicle speed signal and acceleration signal include valid information, and the valid information includes valid flags and invalid flags.

[0064] S220. Determine whether both the vehicle speed signal and the acceleration signal contain a valid flag. If yes, proceed to S230-S240; otherwise, proceed to S260.

[0065] In some implementations, the controller checks whether the vehicle speed signal is valid (B_V). If the wheel speed sensor involved in the vehicle speed calculation has a circuit fault or the value is out of range, it is "FALSE"; otherwise, it is "TRUE". Then, it checks whether the acceleration signal is valid (B_a). If the acceleration sensor has a circuit fault or the value is out of range, it is "FALSE"; otherwise, it is "TRUE".

[0066] In some implementations, the invalidation flag can also be a defined special value, such as 65535. If this special value is detected in a vehicle speed signal or acceleration signal message, it indicates that the vehicle speed signal or acceleration signal is invalid.

[0067] S230, Acquire signal duration.

[0068] S240. Determine whether the signal duration is greater than or equal to the first time threshold. If yes, execute S250 and S270; otherwise, execute S260.

[0069] S250, The electrical fault diagnosis result is determined to be normal.

[0070] S260. The electrical fault diagnosis result is determined to be abnormal.

[0071] For example, the engine electronic control system first determines whether the diagnostic conditions for the vehicle speed signal are met based on B_V and B_a. If either B_V or B_a is "FALSE", the electrical fault diagnosis result is determined to be abnormal, and the vehicle speed signal diagnosis is paused. Only when both B_V and B_a are "TRUE" and remain so for a period of time P1 is the electrical fault diagnosis result determined to be normal, and the vehicle speed signal diagnosis continues. P1 represents the first time threshold, which is a calibrable parameter with a default value of 1000ms.

[0072] S270. Generate vehicle speed signal diagnostic results based on vehicle speed-related signals.

[0073] Optionally, a vehicle speed signal diagnostic result is generated based on the vehicle speed-related signal, including: determining a reference acceleration based on the vehicle speed signal; performing low-pass filtering on the reference acceleration and the acceleration signal to obtain a first acceleration and a second acceleration, wherein the first acceleration and the second acceleration are free of glitches and have the same phase; determining the difference between the first acceleration and the second acceleration; determining whether the difference is greater than or equal to a preset threshold; if so, obtaining a first duration; when the first duration is greater than or equal to a second time threshold, determining the vehicle speed signal diagnostic result as abnormal; otherwise, obtaining a second duration; when the second duration is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, determining the vehicle speed signal diagnostic result as normal.

[0074] Optionally, the reference acceleration is determined based on the vehicle speed signal, including: determining the gradient corresponding to the vehicle speed signal; obtaining a specified time range, calculating the ratio of the gradient to the specified time range, and generating the reference acceleration.

[0075] Optionally, after determining that the vehicle speed signal diagnosis result is abnormal, the method further includes: generating fault degradation information based on vehicle speed-related signals; and degrading the performance of the current vehicle based on the fault degradation information.

[0076] The technical solution of this invention determines the electrical fault diagnosis result by using the current vehicle speed signal and acceleration signal. When the electrical fault diagnosis result is normal, the vehicle speed signal diagnosis result is generated by using vehicle speed-related signals. This can accurately diagnose the reasonableness of the vehicle speed signal fault and degrade the vehicle performance to enter a relatively safe state, thereby ensuring the safety of personnel and vehicles. It also has a wider range of applications. Even if the vehicle is shifting gears or in a place with weak GPS signals, such as a tunnel, the diagnosis can still be carried out normally without interrupting the diagnosis.
