[0049] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the technical solutions of the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0050] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, a detailed description will be given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0051] The main solution of the embodiment of the present application is: when the wire control brake controller determines that the vehicle is traveling on a bumpy road condition and is in a stable state, the wire control brake controller determines the target braking torque required for braking the vehicle based on the collected wheel speed information, the wheel speed change rate and the preset stability parameters; obtains the actual braking torque of the motor when controlling the motor braking in the vehicle based on the target braking torque; and based on the difference between the target braking torque and the actual braking torque, requests the torque supplement module in the vehicle to provide the supplementary braking torque lacking in the motor braking.

[0052] In this embodiment, for the convenience of description, the brake-by-wire controller is used as the execution subject for explanation below.

[0053] In the prior art, when a vehicle passes through a bumpy road such as a speed bump or a joint road, the ABS function is activated. To ensure the safety of the vehicle, the motor braking torque will be quickly withdrawn to prevent the vehicle from losing stability and causing a traffic accident. However, the rapid withdrawal of the motor braking torque will cause the vehicle to lose deceleration, resulting in a strong sense of frustration, which in turn reduces driving comfort.

[0054] The present application provides a solution. When it is determined that a vehicle is traveling on a bumpy road and is in a stable state, it means that the vehicle is in a safe state when traveling on the bumpy road. In order to avoid rapid exit of motor braking, it is necessary to determine the target braking torque required for motor braking based on the collected wheel speed information and wheel speed changes and preset stability parameters, so that the motor brakes the vehicle according to the target braking torque, and ensures that the current braking torque of the motor can correspond to the wheel speed of the vehicle. Since there will be loss in the transmission or conversion process of power, the actual braking torque generated by the motor will be less than the target braking torque to produce a torque error. Therefore, the actual braking torque generated by the motor when working according to the target braking torque can be received to use the difference between the actual braking torque and the target braking torque to determine the braking error of the motor. In order to avoid a sudden change in the deceleration of the vehicle due to the motor braking error, which causes the vehicle to feel frustrated, the torque supplement module in the vehicle can be requested to supplement the torque required for braking based on the difference, so as to avoid the vehicle feeling frustrated due to the lack of deceleration, thereby improving driving comfort.

[0055] It should be noted that the execution subject of this embodiment may be a computing service device with data processing, network communication and program running functions, such as a tablet computer, a personal computer, a mobile phone, etc., or an electronic device capable of realizing the above functions, a brake-by-wire controller, etc. The brake-by-wire controller is taken as an example to illustrate this embodiment and the following embodiments.

[0056] Based on this, the present application embodiment provides a vehicle braking control method, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flow chart of a first embodiment of a vehicle braking control method of the present application.

[0057] In this embodiment, the vehicle braking control method includes steps S10 to S30:

[0058] Step S10, when it is determined that the vehicle is traveling on a bumpy road and is in a stable state, a target braking torque required for braking the vehicle is determined based on the collected wheel speed information, wheel speed change rate, and preset stability parameters;

[0059] It should be noted that the uneven road condition may be a road condition with speed bumps, a road condition with joint gaps, or a road condition with damaged road surface, etc., which may lead to uneven road conditions. A stable state may be a state in which the vehicle can maintain the expected trajectory or posture and continue to travel without losing control when it is disturbed by the outside world or driving normally. Wheel speed information may include the wheel speed of each wheel of the vehicle, etc. The wheel speed change rate may be the change in the wheel speed of each wheel in the vehicle, etc. The preset stability parameters may include the slip rate required for normal braking of the vehicle when the vehicle is in a stable state, etc. The target braking torque may be the torque that the motor needs to provide when braking the vehicle when the vehicle is motor-braking.

[0060] In addition, it should be noted that when the vehicle brakes, the wheel speed will change according to a certain deceleration. Due to the friction between the road and the wheel or the energy loss between the vehicle's braking device, the deceleration will fluctuate normally within a certain range. Therefore, the change in wheel speed may be the fluctuation of the deceleration.

[0061] It is understandable that when a vehicle is traveling on an uneven road, in order to ensure the stability of the vehicle's driving, the vehicle needs to be appropriately decelerated, and deceleration too quickly will also cause the vehicle to lose balance. Therefore, in order to keep the vehicle in a stable state on the uneven road, the vehicle's wheel speed information and wheel speed change rate can be obtained, and combined with some parameters required for the vehicle to be in stable driving, the target braking torque required for braking the vehicle can be determined, so that the vehicle's braking device can provide deceleration for the vehicle when the vehicle is traveling on the uneven road, thereby ensuring that the vehicle's deceleration is not lost when the vehicle is traveling on the uneven road.

[0062] Furthermore, step S10 may also include:

[0063] Determining an actual slip rate of the vehicle on the uneven road condition based on the collected wheel speed information and wheel speed change rate;

[0064] The target braking torque required for braking the vehicle is determined according to the actual slip ratio and the target slip ratio set in the preset stability parameter.

[0065] It should be noted that the slip ratio may be a physical quantity describing the relative slip degree between the tire of the vehicle and the road surface. The actual slip ratio may reflect the actual slip degree of the vehicle. The target slip ratio may pre-set the range of the vehicle slip degree to ensure the driving safety of the vehicle.

[0066] Step S20, obtaining the actual braking torque of the motor when the motor in the vehicle is braked based on the target braking torque;

[0067] It should be noted that the actual braking torque may be the torque actually used by the motor to brake the vehicle when the motor is controlled to brake the vehicle's wheel speed according to the target braking torque. Since the motor needs to transmit the torque output by the motor to the wheels to brake the vehicle's wheels or due to some other reasons, the torque applied to the wheels by the motor is not the target braking torque set for the motor.

[0068] It is understandable that since the torque applied to the wheels by the motor is not the torque set for the motor, that is, there will be a torque difference when the motor brakes the vehicle, which makes the braking of the vehicle unable to proceed as expected, and because the actual braking is different from the expected braking, the amplitude of the vehicle's deceleration change becomes larger, causing the user to feel a sense of frustration when driving the vehicle. In order to avoid the sense of frustration, the actual braking torque applied to the wheels when the torque set by the motor is the target braking torque can be obtained, so as to facilitate the subsequent determination of the braking torque that needs to be supplemented by other braking methods based on the actual braking torque, thereby avoiding the motor from failing to provide sufficient braking torque for the vehicle, causing the vehicle to decelerate too quickly on bumpy road conditions, causing the vehicle to activate the ABS function, causing the vehicle to lose control, causing the vehicle to be dangerous, and avoiding the sense of frustration of the vehicle during deceleration.

[0069] Step S30 : based on the difference between the target braking torque and the actual braking torque, request a torque supplement module in the vehicle to provide a supplementary braking torque that is lacking in motor braking.

[0070] It should be noted that the torque supplement module can be a control module in the vehicle that controls the braking of the wheels other than the motor, and the torque supplement module can be a hydraulic control module or a pneumatic control module, etc. Among them, the hydraulic control module can be a module in the vehicle for hydraulically braking the wheels, and the hydraulic brake device at the wheel can be controlled by the hydraulic control module to perform hydraulic braking on the vehicle. The supplementary braking torque can be determined according to the wheel speed difference between the actual wheel speed of the vehicle after braking and the expected wheel speed after braking when the motor is braking.

[0071] It can be understood that in order to balance the insufficient braking torque of the motor, the torque (supplementary braking torque) that the hydraulic brake needs to provide can be determined based on the difference between the target braking torque and the real-time braking torque, so that the braking torque required for stable deceleration of the vehicle on uneven roads can be balanced through the supplementary braking torque, thereby avoiding the feeling of frustration of the vehicle during deceleration due to insufficient motor braking torque, thereby improving driving comfort.

[0072] The present embodiment provides a braking control method for a vehicle. When it is determined that the vehicle is traveling on a bumpy road and is in a stable state, it means that the vehicle is in a safe state when traveling on the bumpy road. In order to avoid rapid exit of motor braking, it is necessary to determine the target braking torque required for motor braking based on the collected wheel speed information and wheel speed change and preset stability parameters, so that the motor brakes the vehicle according to the target braking torque, and ensures that the current braking torque of the motor can correspond to the wheel speed of the vehicle. Since there will be loss in the transmission or conversion process of power, the actual braking torque generated by the motor will be less than the target braking torque to generate a torque error. Therefore, the actual braking torque generated by the motor when working according to the target braking torque can be received to determine the braking error of the motor by using the difference between the actual braking torque and the target braking torque. In order to avoid a sudden change in the deceleration of the vehicle due to the motor braking error, which causes a sense of frustration in the vehicle, the torque supplement module in the vehicle can be requested to supplement the torque required for braking based on the difference, so as to avoid a sense of frustration in the vehicle due to a lack of deceleration, thereby improving driving comfort.

[0073] Based on the first embodiment of the present application, in the second embodiment of the present application, the same or similar contents as those in the above-mentioned embodiment 1 can refer to the above introduction, and will not be repeated later. Figure 2 Before step S10, the vehicle braking control method further includes steps S01 to S03:

[0074] Step S01, acquiring road information collected by the vehicle, the wheel speed information, the wheel speed change rate, the steering wheel angle of the vehicle, and the yaw angular velocity of the vehicle;

[0075] It should be noted that the steering wheel angle may be the angle at which the driver in the cab turns the steering wheel, and the steering wheel angle may be used to determine whether the driver is manipulating the vehicle. The yaw rate may be the speed at which the vehicle body rotates around a vertical axis, and the yaw rate may directly reflect the control performance and stability of the vehicle. The road information may be collected by a multi-function camera in the vehicle, and the multi-function camera may preliminarily determine whether the corresponding road is a bumpy road based on the collected road information.

[0076] It is understandable that since the multi-function camera determines whether the corresponding road is a bumpy road based on the road information, that is, the result of the multi-function camera's judgment based on the road information is whether there are speed bumps on the road, whether the road is damaged, and whether there are bumps such as connecting gaps on the road. However, different vehicles may feel different bumps when passing through the same speed bump, damaged area or connecting gap. Therefore, it is necessary to further determine whether the current road is bumpy relative to the current vehicle based on the results of the multi-function camera's recognition based on the collected road information, wheel speed information, wheel speed change rate, steering wheel angle and yaw angular velocity.

[0077] Step S02, judging whether the road condition on which the vehicle is currently traveling is a bumpy road condition according to the road information, the wheel speed information and the wheel speed change rate;

[0078] It is understandable that when a vehicle is traveling on a relatively bumpy road, the rotation speed and wheel speed change rate of the vehicle's wheels will become abnormal. Therefore, it is possible to preliminarily determine whether the road the vehicle is on is a bumpy road based on the road information, and to determine whether the bumpy road is a bumpy road relative to the vehicle through the wheel speed information and the wheel speed change rate, so as to avoid the vehicle's ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) function being exited when the vehicle is traveling on a bumpy road with no impact, affecting the user's driving experience.

[0079] Step S03: if it is determined based on the wheel speed information that the wheel speeds of the wheels of the vehicle are the same, the turning angle satisfies a preset stable turning angle, and the yaw angular velocity satisfies a preset stable yaw velocity, then it is determined that the vehicle is in a stable state.

[0080] It should be noted that the preset stable turning angle may be a slight turning angle caused by the bumps of the road when the vehicle is driving stably. The preset stable yaw angle may be a normal swing angle of the vehicle around the vertical axis when the vehicle is passing through an uneven road normally and stably.

[0081] It is understandable that, since the wheel speeds of the vehicle are almost the same in a stable state, when the wheel speeds are different, the vehicle will experience severe lateral swings, and when the steering wheel angle turns significantly, it may be that the driver intervened, or the vehicle lost control, and the uneven road surface forced the wheels to change their forward direction, thereby changing the steering wheel angle. In addition, the most intuitive manifestation of the vehicle losing stability is that the vehicle's yaw rate exceeds the preset stable yaw rate of the vehicle in a stable state. Therefore, it is possible to judge whether the vehicle is in a stable state based on the wheel speeds of each wheel, the angle of direction, and the yaw rate of the vehicle, so as to avoid forced subsequent braking control after the vehicle loses control on an uneven road, which would put the vehicle in danger.

[0082] Furthermore, when the vehicle is traveling on a bumpy road, if the vehicle does not exceed the destabilization speed corresponding to the bumpy road, the vehicle will not lose control. In order to avoid the need to brake any vehicle passing through the bumpy road and ensure the stability of the vehicle, which may reduce the driving experience of the user, step S02 further includes:

[0083] Reading the wheel speed of each wheel in the vehicle from the wheel speed information, and analyzing the sudden change of the wheel speed change rate;

[0084] When it is preliminarily identified based on the road information that the vehicle is traveling on a bumpy road, judging whether the vehicle is airborne based on the wheel speed of each wheel and the mutation;

[0085] If it is determined that the vehicle is in the air, then it is determined that the road condition on which the vehicle is currently traveling is a bumpy road condition;

[0086] If it is determined that the vehicle is not airborne, it is determined that the road condition on which the vehicle is currently traveling is not a bumpy road condition.

[0087] It should be noted that the sudden change may be a sudden increase or decrease in the rate of change of the wheel speed, that is, an abnormal fluctuation in the rate of change of the wheel speed. The vehicle may be vacant with the front wheels, rear wheels or the entire vehicle, or a single wheel.

[0088] It is understandable that since vehicles are prone to become airborne on uneven roads, after becoming airborne, the vehicle is prone to large-scale yaw, which requires higher vehicle operation. In addition, when the vehicle is not airborne, each wheel can firmly grasp the ground to make the vehicle tend to a stable state. Therefore, when it is preliminarily identified that the road the vehicle is traveling on is an uneven road based on road information, it is possible to determine whether the vehicle is in an airborne state by determining whether the wheel speeds of each wheel are the same and whether there is a sudden change in the wheel speed change path. When it is determined that the vehicle is in an airborne state, it is determined whether the current uneven road is an uneven road condition relative to the vehicle. That is, by detecting whether the vehicle is airborne, it is determined whether the vehicle is in an uneven road condition, and then it is determined whether the vehicle needs to exit the ACC function and hand over the control of the vehicle to the driver. This not only avoids frequent exits from the ACC function, but also ensures the vehicle's driving safety.

[0089] Optionally, when the vehicle encounters some dangerous road conditions, the ABS function and / or the DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) function will be activated to avoid the danger of the vehicle sliding on the road, and after the vehicle activates the ABS function and / or the DTC function, it means that the vehicle is driving dangerously. When the vehicle turns on the ACC function, it is necessary to exit the ACC function and let the driver control the vehicle to reduce the occurrence of danger. However, when the vehicle passes through a bumpy road that has no driving effect on the vehicle, the vehicle will automatically exit the ACC function, reducing the driver's driving experience. Therefore, in order to avoid the vehicle exiting the ACC function when encountering a bumpy road, after step S03, the vehicle braking control method further includes steps S04~S05:

[0090] Step S04, if it is detected that the ABS function and / or the DTC function of the vehicle is activated when driving on the uneven road condition, it is determined whether the ACC function of the vehicle is turned on;

[0091] Step S05: If it is determined that the ACC function of the vehicle is turned on, then after determining that the vehicle is in a stable state, the ACC function is kept turned on.

[0092] It should be noted that the ACC function can monitor the road conditions ahead in real time by integrating sensors such as radar or cameras in front of the vehicle, and automatically adjust the vehicle speed to maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front, while also supporting the cruise control function. The ABS function can prevent the wheels from locking during emergency braking, allowing the vehicle to maintain controllability and directional stability, thereby effectively improving driving safety. The DTC function can be a digital universal identifier of the fault state identified by the on-board diagnostic system to determine the vehicle fault based on the universal identifier.

[0093] It is understandable that when the vehicle loses deceleration during braking, the vehicle will drop to zero speed in an instant, causing the vehicle to slide on the road. In order to avoid this situation, the vehicle will automatically activate the ABS function so that the wheels can still turn. However, after the ABS function is turned on, the vehicle will automatically be considered to be in a dangerous driving state and the control of the vehicle needs to be handed over to the driver. In order to avoid judging any working condition in which the ABS function is activated as a dangerous driving state, when it is determined that the vehicle has activated the ABS function and turned on the ACC function, it is further determined whether the vehicle is in a stable state. If the vehicle is in a stable state, it means that the vehicle is braking normally on uneven roads, so as to avoid the ACC function not being able to exit at the appropriate time, thereby improving the user's driving experience.

[0094] Based on the first and second embodiments of the present application, in the third embodiment of the present application, the same or similar contents as those in the above embodiments can be referred to the above introduction, and will not be described in detail later. Figure 3 , using the hydraulic control module to represent the torque supplement module used in the specific implementation, step S30 includes steps S31 to S34:

[0095] Step S31, determining a torque difference between the target braking torque and the actual braking torque;

[0096] Step S32, determining a braking wheel speed deviation of the vehicle on a bumpy road condition based on the torque difference;

[0097] Step S33, determining the hydraulic torque required for hydraulic braking of the vehicle based on the braking wheel speed deviation;

[0098] Step S34 , requesting a torque supplement module in the vehicle to provide a supplementary braking torque that is lacking in the motor brake according to the hydraulic torque.

[0099] It should be noted that the braking wheel speed deviation may be the deviation between the actual wheel speed of the wheel after the motor brakes and the expected wheel speed to which the wheel is expected to be reduced.

[0100] It is understandable that due to the different principles of motor braking and hydraulic braking, hydraulic braking is performed by pushing the brake caliper with hydraulic oil, and since the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic brake may have a certain rebound, the braking effect under the same braking torque is far inferior to the braking effect of motor braking. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the braking wheel speed deviation of the vehicle on uneven road conditions based on the difference between the actual braking torque of the motor and the target braking torque, and further determine the supplementary braking torque that the hydraulic brake needs to provide based on the braking wheel speed deviation, so as to make the vehicle's braking control more precise, make the vehicle's braking control more stable, and avoid the vehicle's sense of frustration, affecting the user's driving experience.

[0102] 1) The multifunctional camera collects road information and, after identifying special road conditions (such as deceleration, bad roads, joint roads, etc.), sends a signal to the brake-by-wire controller as a feedforward input for the brake-by-wire function to control special road conditions;

[0103] 2) The brake-by-wire controller uses the steering wheel angle sensor to determine whether the driver intends to intervene in the special road condition. If the driver intervenes, the event is interrupted;

[0104] 3) If the driver does not intervene, the brake-by-wire controller determines whether the vehicle is in the airborne condition by collecting wheel speed signals and wheel speed change rate signals of special road conditions and calibrating airborne parameters. If the wheel speed threshold does not enter the airborne condition, the event is interrupted;

[0105] 4) If the wheel speed threshold enters the airborne condition, the brake-by-wire controller needs to determine whether the vehicle is in a stable state through the wheel speed, steering wheel angle and yaw rate sensors. If the vehicle is unstable, the event ends;

[0106] 5) If the vehicle is in a stable state and the brake-by-wire function is activated (such as ABS, DTC, etc.):

[0107] a. When the brake-by-wire controller determines that the ABS and DTC functions are activated under special road conditions, it will also provide feedback to the intelligent driving controller, which will determine whether the ACC function must be exited after the controller is calibrated and the road conditions are verified, thereby improving driving satisfaction;

[0108] b. After calibrating reasonable parameters, request the vehicle controller to control the motor braking torque, and the vehicle controller will feed back the actual execution value of the motor to the wire control controller in real time;

[0109] 6) The brake-by-wire controller performs brake pressure PID control based on the difference between the actual motor threshold and the requested target value to ensure that the electro-hydraulic brake balance and deceleration are not lost;

[0110] 7) After identifying special road conditions through the above strategies, the brake-by-wire system controls the motor braking torque and hydraulic braking torque to solve problems such as the vehicle passing through special road conditions, the wheel speed change leading to the activation of ABS and other functions, and the motor braking torque quickly exiting, causing the vehicle to stall and lose deceleration.
