It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0051] The directions or positional relationships indicated in this specification, such as "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "center," "longitudinal," "transverse," "horizontal," "inner," "outer," "radial," and "circumferential," are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are intended solely for the purpose of simplifying the description.

Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0052] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a method for controlling the accelerator pedal opening is provided. The method is described by taking the application of the method to a vehicle controller as an example, and includes the following steps:

[0053] Step 202: When it is determined that the vehicle is in a following vehicle state, the current actual accelerator pedal opening is obtained.

[0054] In a specific embodiment, whether the vehicle is in a following vehicle state can be determined based on the vehicle speed, accelerator pedal opening, longitudinal acceleration, vehicle speed variance value, accelerator pedal opening variance value, longitudinal acceleration variance value and slope. For example, when the following conditions are met at the same time, the vehicle is considered to be in a following vehicle state: the vehicle speed is greater than a preset vehicle speed threshold; the accelerator pedal opening is greater than a preset accelerator pedal opening threshold; the longitudinal acceleration is greater than a preset longitudinal acceleration threshold; the vehicle speed variance value is less than a preset vehicle speed variance value threshold; the accelerator pedal opening variance value is less than a preset accelerator pedal opening variance value threshold; the longitudinal acceleration variance value is less than a preset longitudinal acceleration variance value threshold; and the slope is less than a preset slope threshold.

[0055] Conversely, the vehicle is considered to have exited the following state if the following conditions are simultaneously met: vehicle speed is less than or equal to the vehicle speed threshold; accelerator pedal opening is less than or equal to the accelerator pedal opening threshold; longitudinal acceleration is less than or equal to the longitudinal acceleration threshold; vehicle speed variance is greater than or equal to the vehicle speed variance threshold; accelerator pedal opening variance is greater than or equal to the accelerator pedal opening variance threshold; longitudinal acceleration variance is greater than or equal to the longitudinal acceleration variance threshold; and the slope is greater than or equal to the slope threshold. If the vehicle is determined to have exited the following state, the subsequent accelerator pedal opening correction step is not performed.

[0056] The specific values ​​of the aforementioned thresholds can be set based on scenario requirements and / or vehicle type. For example, in a high-speed following vehicle scenario, the driver needs to apply significant pedal force for a long period of time to maintain the current high-speed following state, which can cause driver fatigue. To improve driving safety in this scenario, the accelerator pedal opening threshold and vehicle speed threshold can be set to larger values ​​to identify the high-speed following state, allowing the accelerator pedal opening to be corrected according to subsequent steps.

[0057] For example, the conversion relationship between the accelerator pedal and engine torque in single-pedal mode depends on the design and output characteristics of the engine. The engines of some models may have higher torque output, so higher torque output can be achieved at a lower accelerator pedal opening; while the engines of some models may require a higher accelerator pedal opening to output the same torque. Compared with models with higher torque output characteristics, this type of model will also require the driver to maintain a relatively large pedal force for a long time in low-speed following driving scenarios. Therefore, for this type of model, the vehicle speed threshold and the accelerator pedal opening threshold can be adaptively set to smaller values ​​to identify the low-speed following driving state, and then the accelerator pedal opening can be corrected according to subsequent steps to improve driving safety.

[0058] Among them, the step of judging whether the vehicle is in the following driving state can also set a hysteresis interval; when it is first judged that the vehicle is in the following driving state, the vehicle speed, accelerator pedal opening and longitudinal acceleration can be continuously collected at a preset interval length until the continuous length reaches a preset period; then based on the vehicle speed, accelerator pedal opening and longitudinal acceleration collected within the preset period, the corresponding vehicle speed average, accelerator pedal opening average and longitudinal acceleration average are calculated respectively; then, based on each vehicle speed, accelerator pedal opening and longitudinal acceleration within the preset period and the vehicle speed average, accelerator pedal opening average and longitudinal acceleration average, the variance calculation formula is used to calculate the corresponding vehicle speed variance value, accelerator pedal opening variance value and longitudinal acceleration variance value respectively.

[0059] Step 204 : Calculate the required accelerator pedal opening required for the vehicle to maintain the current following vehicle driving state.

[0060] In a specific embodiment, step 204 includes: determining the required following torque required for the vehicle to maintain the current following driving state; obtaining the current actual accelerator pedal opening and the actual pedal torque corresponding to the current actual accelerator pedal opening; performing a fusion calculation based on the following required torque and the actual pedal torque to obtain the following request torque; converting the following request torque to obtain the required accelerator pedal opening.

[0061] In the above steps, the step of determining the required following torque for the vehicle to maintain the current following driving state includes: determining the wheel end torque required for the vehicle to maintain the current actual vehicle speed; obtaining the current average vehicle speed of the vehicle in the current following driving state; obtaining the corresponding current torque adjustment coefficient based on the difference between the current average vehicle speed and the current actual vehicle speed; and obtaining the following required torque based on the product of the current torque adjustment coefficient and the wheel end torque.

[0062] Furthermore, the step of determining the wheel torque required for the vehicle to maintain its current actual speed includes: obtaining the vehicle's wheel rolling radius and the current coasting resistance in the current following vehicle state; and calculating the product of the wheel rolling radius and the current coasting resistance to obtain the wheel torque required for the vehicle to maintain its current speed. The current coasting resistance can be obtained by conducting a real-world test while the vehicle is in a following vehicle scenario and obtaining a coasting resistance curve from the coasting resistance curve.

[0063] Furthermore, the step of obtaining the corresponding current torque adjustment coefficient based on the difference between the current average vehicle speed and the current actual vehicle speed includes: obtaining the current vehicle speed difference and the current vehicle speed difference change rate based on the current average vehicle speed and the current actual vehicle speed; obtaining a preset second mapping relationship, wherein the second mapping relationship records the relationship between different vehicle speed differences, vehicle speed difference change rates and torque adjustment coefficients; based on the current vehicle speed difference and the current vehicle speed difference change rate, searching in the second mapping relationship to obtain the corresponding current torque adjustment coefficient.

[0064] Among them, when it is first determined that the vehicle is in a following driving state, the actual vehicle speed can be continuously collected at a preset interval length until the continuous length reaches a preset period; then, based on the actual vehicle speeds collected within the preset period, the corresponding current average vehicle speed is calculated; then, the difference between the current average vehicle speed and the current actual vehicle speed at the current moment is calculated to obtain the current vehicle speed difference, and the current vehicle speed difference is differentiated to obtain the current difference change rate.

[0065] The second mapping relationship can be determined by conducting actual vehicle test calibration under different vehicle speed differences and vehicle speed difference change rates, with the purpose of improving the accuracy of the following torque. For example, the second mapping relationship can be as shown in Table 1, where the vehicle speed difference unit is km / h and the vehicle speed difference change rate unit is km / h. 2 .

[0066] Table 1 Second mapping relationship

[0067]

[0068] In the above steps, the step of obtaining the following request torque by performing a fusion calculation based on the following demand torque and the actual pedal torque includes: obtaining the current following time length of the vehicle in the current following driving state; obtaining the corresponding current torque fusion coefficient according to the current following time length; and performing a fusion calculation on the following demand torque and the actual pedal torque according to the current torque fusion coefficient to obtain the following request torque.

[0069] Furthermore, the step of obtaining the corresponding current torque fusion coefficient based on the current following time includes: obtaining a preset third mapping relationship, wherein the third mapping relationship records the relationship between different following times and torque fusion coefficients; based on the current following time, searching in the third mapping relationship to obtain the corresponding current torque fusion coefficient.

[0070] The third mapping relationship can be determined through real-vehicle testing and calibration in various following driving scenarios, with the goal of improving following torque accuracy. The longer the following duration, the greater the torque fusion coefficient, and the greater the proportion of following demand torque in the torque fusion calculation. For example, the third mapping relationship can be shown in Table 2, with following duration in seconds.

[0071] Table 2 The third mapping relationship

[0072] Following time 0 100 500 Torque fusion coefficient 0.5 0.6 1

[0073] The mathematical expression used for the fusion calculation of the following vehicle request torque includes: T”=δ'×T'+(1-δ')×T Raw , where T” represents the vehicle-following request torque, δ’ represents the current torque fusion coefficient, T’ represents the vehicle-following request torque, T Raw Indicates the actual pedal torque.

[0074] Step 206 : When the current actual accelerator pedal opening is greater than a preset first opening threshold and the required accelerator pedal opening is greater than a preset second opening threshold, calculate a current accelerator pedal opening variance value in the current following vehicle driving state.

[0075] When the current actual accelerator pedal opening is greater than the first opening threshold and the required accelerator pedal opening is greater than the second opening threshold, it means that the driver is likely to provide a larger pedal force in the current following driving state, which may make the driver feel tired and easily affect the depth of pressing the accelerator pedal. A larger accelerator pedal opening may bring driving safety hazards.

[0076] In order to avoid the above-mentioned driving safety hazards as much as possible, when it is first determined that the vehicle is in a following driving state, the accelerator pedal opening can be continuously collected at preset intervals until the continuous period reaches a preset period; then, based on the various accelerator pedal openings collected within the preset period, the corresponding accelerator pedal opening average is calculated; then, based on the various accelerator pedal openings and the accelerator pedal opening average within the preset period, the corresponding current accelerator pedal opening variance value is calculated using the variance calculation formula; then, the required accelerator pedal opening is corrected using the current accelerator pedal opening variance value.

[0077] The specific values ​​of the first opening threshold and the second opening threshold can be set according to different driving scenario requirements and / or vehicle models. For example, in a high-speed following driving scenario, the first opening threshold and the second opening threshold can be set to higher values; for example, in a low-speed following driving scenario, for a single-pedal mode vehicle model, the first opening threshold and the second opening threshold can be set to lower values.

[0078] Step 208 : Correcting the current actual accelerator pedal opening according to the current accelerator pedal opening variance value to obtain a final accelerator pedal opening.

[0079] In a specific embodiment, the step of correcting the current actual throttle pedal opening according to the current throttle pedal opening variance value to obtain the final throttle pedal opening includes: obtaining a preset first mapping relationship, wherein the first mapping relationship records the relationship between different throttle pedal opening variance values, actual throttle pedal openings and throttle pedal opening correction values; based on the current throttle pedal opening variance value and the current actual throttle pedal opening, searching in the first mapping relationship to obtain the corresponding current throttle pedal opening correction value; calculating the difference between the current actual throttle pedal opening and the current throttle pedal opening correction value to obtain the final throttle pedal opening.

[0080] In which, actual vehicle testing and calibration can be performed in a vehicle-following driving scenario to obtain the first mapping relationship. For example, the first mapping relationship can be as shown in Table 3.

[0081] Table 3 First mapping relationship

[0082]

[0083] When the actual accelerator pedal opening is constant, the larger the accelerator pedal opening variance value, the more likely the driver is to release the accelerator when following the vehicle, that is, the driver is less likely to provide a large pedal force for a long time, and the possibility of causing driving fatigue is also smaller. Therefore, the amplitude of the accelerator pedal opening correction can be reduced, and there is no need to intervene too much in the accelerator pedal opening; the smaller the accelerator pedal opening variance value, the more likely the driver is to maintain a steady accelerator when following the vehicle, that is, the driver is more likely to provide a large pedal force for a long time, and the possibility of causing driving fatigue is also greater. Therefore, the amplitude of the accelerator pedal opening correction can be increased, the intensity of intervention in the accelerator pedal opening can be increased, and the possibility of driver fatigue can be reduced.

[0084] In the above-mentioned accelerator pedal opening control method, in the following vehicle driving scenario, when the required accelerator pedal opening required to maintain the current following vehicle driving state and the current actual accelerator pedal opening are large, that is, there is a high possibility that the driver needs to provide a large pedal force, the current actual accelerator pedal opening can be corrected according to the current accelerator pedal opening variance value in the current following vehicle driving state, so as to adjust the current actual accelerator pedal opening according to the driver's following habits in the following vehicle driving scenario, effectively avoiding the driver from feeling tired due to providing a large pedal force for a long time, eliminating the safety hazards caused by this to a certain extent, and improving driving safety in the following vehicle driving scenario.
