The memory 1005 may also be a storage device independent of the aforementioned processor 1001.

[0047] Those skilled in the art will understand that Figure 1 The structure shown in the figure does not constitute a limitation on the vehicle traffic control device, and may include more or less components than shown in the figure, or combine certain components, or arrange the components differently.

[0048] like Figure 1As shown, the memory 1005 as a storage medium may include an operating system, a network communication module, a user interface module, and a vehicle traffic control program.

[0049] exist Figure 1 In the vehicle traffic control device shown, the network interface 1004 is mainly used for data communication with the network server; the user interface 1003 is mainly used for data interaction with the user; the processor 1001 and the memory 1005 in the vehicle traffic control device of the present invention can be set in the vehicle traffic control device, and the vehicle traffic control device calls the vehicle traffic control program stored in the memory 1005 through the processor 1001, and executes the vehicle traffic control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention.

[0050] The embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle traffic control method, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 2 It is a flow chart of a first embodiment of a vehicle traffic control method of the present invention.

[0051] In this embodiment, the vehicle traffic control method includes the following steps:

[0052] Step S10: Obtain the first vehicle passing priority of the current vehicle and the second vehicle passing priority of the target vehicle in the adjacent lane.

[0053] It should be noted that the executor of the method of this embodiment can be a device with functions such as data processing, data collection and program running, such as: an on-board computer and / or a controller inside the vehicle, etc., or other devices that can achieve the same or similar functions. This embodiment does not impose specific restrictions on this. In this embodiment and the following embodiments, the controller inside the vehicle will be used as an example for explanation.

[0054] It is worth noting that the first vehicle passing priority of the current vehicle is initialized to 1. After each passing judgment, and the current vehicle fails to pass successfully, the first vehicle passing priority of the current vehicle is increased by one level until the current vehicle successfully passes the accident section, and the first vehicle passing priority of the current vehicle is reinitialized to 1.

[0055] It can be understood that the target vehicle in the adjacent lane refers to the vehicle that overlaps with the current vehicle in the adjacent lane when the current vehicle is translated to the adjacent lane, or one of the rear vehicles of the vehicle with overlapping parts. In addition, the second vehicle passage priority of the target vehicle is initialized to 1.

[0056] If the current vehicle or the target vehicle needs to change lanes and merge into the same lane, at this time, in order to improve the safety during the lane change process, the current vehicle will only change lanes when the priority of the current vehicle is greater than that of the target vehicle.

[0057] Step S20: When the current vehicle meets the lane change condition, traffic control is performed according to the first vehicle traffic priority and the second vehicle traffic priority.

[0058] It should be noted that the lane change condition refers to at least one of the following three situations: the speeds of the current vehicle and the target vehicle in the adjacent lane are both lower than a preset speed threshold, there is an accident or road construction in the lane where the current vehicle is located, or there is an accident or road construction in the adjacent lane, which affects traffic. The preset speed threshold can be set to 20 km / h, and this embodiment does not impose any specific restrictions on this.

[0059] In a specific implementation, traffic control according to the first vehicle traffic priority and the second vehicle traffic priority includes two situations. The first situation is that a vehicle in an adjacent lane changes lanes to the current lane, and the second situation is that the current vehicle changes lanes to an adjacent lane.

[0060] This embodiment obtains the first vehicle traffic priority of the current vehicle and the second vehicle traffic priority of the target vehicle in the adjacent lane, so that when the current vehicle meets the lane change conditions, the current vehicle can be controlled according to the first vehicle traffic priority and the second vehicle traffic priority, thereby avoiding the technical problem of low vehicle traffic efficiency when vehicles in multiple lanes need to merge in the prior art, and improving road traffic efficiency.

[0061] refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 It is a flow chart of a second embodiment of a vehicle traffic control method of the present invention.

[0062] Based on the above first embodiment, in this embodiment, step S20 includes:

[0063] Step S201: When the current vehicle meets a first lane change condition, a first traffic warning zone of the current vehicle is determined.

[0064] It should be noted that the first lane change condition refers to the situation where the lane where the vehicle is currently located is impassable and needs to change lanes to an adjacent lane. In the first lane change condition, the first traffic warning area of ​​the current vehicle refers to Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the traffic warning zone of the current vehicle when the current vehicle needs to change lanes to an adjacent lane.

[0065] In a specific implementation, the first traffic warning zone can be based on the driving trajectory of the current vehicle's drivable space and form a certain range interval based on the current vehicle's width and length. Within the range interval, the range d1 is widened as the traffic warning zone, and the vehicle closest to the vehicle in the warning zone is regarded as the front vehicle, with a following distance of m1.

[0066] Step S202: When the front of the current vehicle exceeds the front of the target vehicle and there is a vehicle intruding into the first traffic warning zone, adjusting the range of the first traffic warning zone according to the first vehicle traffic priority and the second vehicle traffic priority.

[0067] It can be understood that if the front of the current vehicle exceeds the front of the target vehicle in the adjacent lane, it means that the current vehicle has the feasibility of changing lanes. However, if there is a vehicle intruding into the traffic warning zone of the current vehicle, it means that if the lane is changed forcibly, there is a possibility of an accident. Therefore, when there is a vehicle in the traffic warning zone, priority judgment can be made to reduce the possibility of accidents.

[0068] In the specific implementation, if the projection of the front of the current vehicle on the lane exceeds the projection of the front of the target vehicle on the lane by a certain distance, the traffic priority of the current vehicle can be increased to level 2, d1 and m1 can be reduced to d2 and m2, and the warning area and following distance can be re-planned according to d2 and m2. The vehicle can continue to follow the vehicle to improve the safety of the vehicle driving process.

[0069] Furthermore, the vehicle traffic control method further includes:

[0070] When there is no vehicle intrusion into the adjusted traffic warning area, the current vehicle is controlled to change lanes according to the first communication warning area.

[0071] In order to improve the safety of vehicle driving, if the front of the current vehicle exceeds the front of the target vehicle in the adjacent lane, it means that the current vehicle is feasible to change lanes and there is a possibility of an accident. Similarly, when the front of the current vehicle exceeds the front of the target vehicle and there is no vehicle intruding into the traffic warning area, it means that the possibility of an accident is small and the current vehicle can change lanes.

[0072] Step S203: When there is a vehicle intruding into the adjusted first traffic warning zone, stop and give way.

[0073] It should be understood that if there is a vehicle intruding into the adjusted traffic warning zone and the current vehicle forcibly changes lanes, a safety accident may occur. Therefore, by controlling the current vehicle to stop and give way, accidents can be avoided. At the same time, the number of times the lane change condition is given way is recorded, and the traffic priority of the current vehicle is updated.

[0074] Furthermore, after determining the first passing warning zone of the current vehicle, the method further includes:

[0075] When the front of the current vehicle does not exceed the front of the target vehicle, stop and give way;

[0076] reducing the coverage of the first traffic warning zone and recording the number of yielding times;

[0077] The first vehicle's priority of passage is increased until the number of times the vehicle yields is greater than or equal to a preset threshold.

[0078] In the specific implementation, if the projection of the front of the ego vehicle on the lane does not exceed the projection of the front of the target vehicle on the lane by a certain distance or is behind the projection of the front of the target vehicle, it means that there is a high possibility of an accident if the lane is changed at this time. Therefore, the current vehicle can be controlled to stop and give way, waiting for the next judgment, and the priority of the ego vehicle is increased to level 2, the number of times it gives way is recorded +1, and d1 and m1 are reduced to d2 and m2.

[0079] In addition, if the current vehicle changes lanes smoothly, it is judged as smooth passage when the rear end of the own vehicle overtakes the front of the target vehicle, and the automatic driving is exited. If the own vehicle stops to give way, the target vehicle is changed to the vehicle in front, and the next vehicle in the adjacent lane is selected as the target vehicle. The process returns to the step of determining the first passage warning zone of the current vehicle when the current vehicle meets the first lane change operating condition until the current vehicle changes lanes and passes.

[0080] In addition, if the current vehicle's priority reaches the highest and it cannot pass, the priority will no longer be upgraded, and it will continue to try to change lanes and record the number of times it gives way.

[0081] This embodiment reduces the possibility of accidents by determining the first traffic warning zone of the current vehicle during the lane change process when the current vehicle needs to change lanes, and adjusting the scope of the first traffic warning zone according to the front position of the current vehicle and the front position of the target vehicle in the adjacent lane and the presence of a vehicle intruding into the first traffic warning zone.

[0082] refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 It is a flow chart of a third embodiment of a vehicle traffic control method of the present invention.

[0083] Based on the above second embodiment, in this embodiment, the step S20 further includes:

[0084] Step S201': when the current vehicle meets a second lane change condition, determining a second traffic warning zone of the current vehicle.

[0085] Step S202': When the front of the current vehicle does not exceed the front of the target vehicle, stop and give way.

[0086] Step S203': reducing the coverage of the second traffic warning zone and recording the number of yielding times.

[0087] Step S204': Raise the first vehicle's priority of passage until the number of times the vehicle yields is greater than or equal to a preset threshold.

[0088] It should be noted that the second lane change condition refers to the situation where the adjacent lane is impassable and the vehicle in the adjacent lane needs to change lanes to the lane where the current vehicle is located. In the second lane change condition, the first traffic warning area of ​​the current vehicle refers to Figure 6 , Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the traffic warning zone of the current vehicle when a target vehicle in an adjacent lane is preparing to change lanes to the current lane.

[0089] In the specific implementation, refer to Figure 6 The second traffic warning zone can form a certain range according to the width and length of the current vehicle, and widen the range d1 within the range as the traffic warning zone, and take the vehicle closest to the vehicle in the warning zone as the front vehicle, with a following distance of m1.

[0090] It can be understood that if the front of the current vehicle does not exceed the front of the target vehicle in the adjacent lane, it means that the target vehicle has the feasibility of changing lanes, and the target vehicle can stop to give way at this time. However, if there is a vehicle invading the traffic warning zone of the current vehicle, it means that there is a possibility of an accident if the vehicle continues to pass. Therefore, when there is a vehicle in the traffic warning zone, priority determination can be made to reduce the possibility of accidents.

[0091] In the specific implementation, if the projection of the front of the current vehicle on the lane exceeds the projection of the front of the target vehicle on the lane by a certain distance, the target vehicle can change lanes and pass first, and the traffic priority of the current vehicle is increased to level 2, d1 and m1 are reduced to d2 and m2, and the warning area and following distance are re-planned according to d2 and m2, and the following vehicle continues to drive, thereby improving the safety of the vehicle driving process.

[0092] Furthermore, the vehicle traffic control method further includes:

[0093] When there is no vehicle intrusion into the adjusted traffic warning area, the current vehicle is controlled to continue traveling according to the second communication warning area.

[0094] In order to improve the safety of vehicle driving, if the front of the current vehicle exceeds the front of the target vehicle in the adjacent lane, and there is no vehicle intruding into the second communication warning area of ​​the current vehicle, it means that the current vehicle can pass directly. Similarly, when the front of the current vehicle exceeds the front of the target vehicle and there is no vehicle intruding into the passing warning area, it means that the possibility of an accident is small and the vehicle can pass directly.

[0095] In addition, when the front of the current vehicle does not exceed the front of the target vehicle, while stopping to yield, the coverage of the second traffic warning zone is reduced, and the number of yielding times is recorded to increase the passing priority of the first vehicle until the number of yielding times is greater than or equal to a preset threshold.

[0096] Further, when the number of yielding times is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, a path planning is performed on the current vehicle based on a preset distance threshold to obtain a target driving path;

[0097] The control controls the current vehicle to travel according to the target driving path until the current vehicle meets a lane change condition.

[0098] In the specific implementation, refer to Figure 7 , if the current vehicle's yield times are greater than the set maximum yield times and the current vehicle is still unable to pass, the current vehicle is controlled to re-plan its path according to the minimum distance in the lane away from the accident side (such as Figure 7 As shown), try to pass through and record the number of times of giving way, where the preset threshold can be set to 3 times, and this embodiment does not make any specific limitation to this.

[0099] Furthermore, the vehicle traffic control method further includes:

[0100] When the number of yielding times is greater than or equal to a preset rated yielding threshold, exiting the automatic driving mode;

[0101] Generates a reminder message to remind the driver to take manual driving.

[0102] It is understandable that the preset rated yielding threshold can be set to 5 times. If the current vehicle yields too many times, it will affect the passage of the current vehicle. Therefore, in order not to affect the user's travel plan, this embodiment can accelerate the passage by reminding the driver to drive manually.

[0103] This embodiment reduces the possibility of accidents by determining the second traffic warning zone of the current vehicle during the lane change process when a target vehicle in an adjacent lane needs to change lanes, and adjusting the scope of the second traffic warning zone according to the front position of the current vehicle and the front position of the target vehicle in the adjacent lane and the presence of a vehicle intruding into the first traffic warning zone.

[0104] In addition, an embodiment of the present invention further proposes a storage medium, on which a vehicle traffic control program is stored. When the vehicle traffic control program is executed by a processor, the steps of the vehicle traffic control method described above are implemented.

[0105] Since the storage medium adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described one by one here.

[0106] Reference Figure 8 , Figure 8 It is a structural block diagram of the first embodiment of the vehicle traffic control device of the present invention.

[0107] like Figure 8 As shown, the vehicle traffic control device proposed in the embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0108] The acquisition module 10 is used to acquire the first vehicle passing priority of the current vehicle and the second vehicle passing priority of the target vehicle in the adjacent lane.

[0109] It is worth noting that the first vehicle passing priority of the current vehicle is initialized to 1. After each passing judgment, and the current vehicle fails to pass successfully, the first vehicle passing priority of the current vehicle is increased by one level until the current vehicle successfully passes the accident section, and the first vehicle passing priority of the current vehicle is reinitialized to 1.

[0110] It can be understood that the target vehicle in the adjacent lane refers to the vehicle that overlaps with the current vehicle in the adjacent lane when the current vehicle is translated to the adjacent lane, or one of the rear vehicles of the vehicle with overlapping parts. In addition, the second vehicle passage priority of the target vehicle is initialized to 1.

[0111] If the current vehicle or the target vehicle needs to change lanes and merge into the same lane, at this time, in order to improve the safety during the lane change process, the current vehicle will only change lanes when the priority of the current vehicle is greater than that of the target vehicle.

[0112] The control module 20 is used to perform traffic control according to the first vehicle traffic priority and the second vehicle traffic priority when the current vehicle meets the lane change condition.

[0113] It should be noted that the lane change condition refers to at least one of the following three situations: the speeds of the current vehicle and the target vehicle in the adjacent lane are both lower than a preset speed threshold, there is an accident or road construction in the lane where the current vehicle is located, or there is an accident or road construction in the adjacent lane, which affects traffic. The preset speed threshold can be set to 20 km / h, and this embodiment does not impose any specific restrictions on this.

[0114] In a specific implementation, traffic control according to the first vehicle traffic priority and the second vehicle traffic priority includes two situations. The first situation is that a vehicle in an adjacent lane changes lanes to the current lane, and the second situation is that the current vehicle changes lanes to an adjacent lane.

[0115] In one embodiment, the control module 20 is further used to determine a first traffic warning zone of the current vehicle when the current vehicle meets a first lane change condition; when the front of the current vehicle exceeds the front of the target vehicle and there is a vehicle intruding into the first traffic warning zone, adjust the range of the first traffic warning zone according to the first vehicle traffic priority and the second vehicle traffic priority; and when there is a vehicle intruding into the adjusted first traffic warning zone, stop and give way.

[0116] In one embodiment, the control module 20 is further configured to control the current vehicle to change lanes according to the first communication warning area when there is no vehicle intrusion into the adjusted traffic warning area.

[0117] In one embodiment, the control module 20 is further used to stop and yield when the front of the current vehicle does not exceed the front of the target vehicle; reduce the coverage of the second traffic warning area and record the number of yield times; increase the traffic priority of the first vehicle until the number of yield times is greater than or equal to a preset threshold.

[0118] In one embodiment, the control module 20 is further used to determine a second traffic warning zone for the current vehicle when the current vehicle meets a second lane change condition; stop and yield when the front of the current vehicle does not exceed the front of the target vehicle; reduce the coverage of the second traffic warning zone and record the number of yield times; and increase the traffic priority of the first vehicle until the number of yield times is greater than or equal to a preset threshold.

[0119] In one embodiment, the control module 20 is further used to plan a path for the current vehicle based on a preset distance threshold to obtain a target driving path when the number of yield times is greater than or equal to a preset threshold; and control the driving of the current vehicle according to the target driving path until the current vehicle meets the lane change condition.

[0120] In one embodiment, the control module 20 is further configured to exit the automatic driving mode when the number of yielding times is greater than or equal to a preset rated yielding threshold; and generate a reminder message to remind the driver to perform manual driving.

[0121] This embodiment obtains the first vehicle traffic priority of the current vehicle and the second vehicle traffic priority of the target vehicle in the adjacent lane, so that when the current vehicle meets the lane change conditions, the current vehicle can be controlled according to the first vehicle traffic priority and the second vehicle traffic priority, thereby avoiding the technical problem of low vehicle traffic efficiency when vehicles in multiple lanes need to merge in the prior art, and improving road traffic efficiency.
