[0022] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] First, some technical terms in the present application are explained to facilitate those skilled in the art to understand the present application.

[0024] The reasons for the invention of this application are as follows: the characteristics of the closed park scene: relatively fixed, with little change, and a specific scene environment; secondly, the speed of vehicles in the closed park is relatively low, which is generally suitable for sanitation vehicles. In the prior art, the mainstream lane change decision is based on complex models designed for complex scenes, and requires a lot of calculations to achieve, with high requirements for models and hardware, and cannot meet the lane change decision needs in the specific scene of the closed park.

[0025] This method is mainly used in sanitation vehicles and can autonomously calculate lane-changing decisions under corresponding demand scenarios.

[0026] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the implementation methods of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] In the first aspect, the embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle lane change decision method based on a closed park, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flow chart of the vehicle lane change decision method based on a closed park in this application. Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 1 , the vehicle lane-changing decision method based on the closed park includes:

[0028] Step 101: Preliminarily determine the behavior of the vehicle based on the road rules of the closed park;

[0029] In a closed campus, road rules include specific gates, parking spots, single-lane or multi-lane scenarios, etc., and vehicle behaviors include driving, parking, etc.; preliminary judgments are made on the vehicle's behavior so that different decisions can be made for different behaviors.

[0030] Step 102: If the vehicle is in a driving behavior and the vehicle is in an immutable lane and there is a dangerous obstacle in the target area ahead of the driving direction, the vehicle stops;

[0031] Based on the vehicle's driving behavior, if there is an obstacle in the target area ahead of the driving direction of the immutable lane, if it is judged to be a dangerous obstacle, then stop directly, otherwise pass directly.

[0032] Step 103: If the vehicle is in driving behavior and the vehicle is in an immutable lane, and there is a dangerous obstacle in the target area ahead of the driving direction, obtain the target areas of the variable lane and the left and right lanes where the vehicle is located, and the absolute coordinates and speed information of the dangerous obstacles in the corresponding target areas, calculate the risk coefficient of the corresponding dangerous obstacle, and compare it with the set standard risk coefficient to obtain the vehicle's lane change decision.

[0033] If there is an obstacle in the target area ahead of the variable lane driving direction, then if the obstacle is not a dangerous obstacle, it will be passed directly. Otherwise, it will be determined whether the obstacles in the target areas of the left and right lanes are dangerous obstacles, and the information of the corresponding dangerous obstacles will be obtained. The corresponding danger coefficients of the dangerous obstacles in the corresponding lanes will be calculated in turn and compared with the standard danger coefficients, and finally the best lane changing decision will be obtained, thereby solving the problem that the lane changing decision of the existing technology is based on a complex model and cannot meet the lane changing decision needs in the specific scenario of a closed park.

[0034] Based on the road rules of the closed park, judging the parking behavior of the vehicle includes the following steps:

[0035] If there is a gate in the target area ahead of the vehicle's lane in the direction of travel, the vehicle is parking to avoid a collision; if the vehicle is about to reach a parking spot and there is an obstacle between the vehicle and the parking spot, the vehicle is parking to avoid a collision; if the vehicle is about to reach a parking spot and there is no obstacle between the vehicle and the parking spot, the vehicle is precisely parking; if the vehicle is not parking to avoid a collision or precisely parking, it is driving, and driving includes forward driving and reverse driving.

[0036] This section specifically defines the road rules for the closed park. When the obstacle is a gate, no algorithm calculation is required, and the vehicle stops to avoid collisions. When precise parking is required, specific calculations are required for the obstacle, vehicle, and parking spot. The distance between the obstacle and the vehicle is x1, and the distance between the parking spot and the vehicle is x2. When parking to avoid collisions, if x2>(x1-x0), the behavior is parking to avoid collisions, otherwise the behavior is precise parking.

[0037] Obtaining the target area in front of the vehicle's lane and in the left and right lanes includes the following steps:

[0038] The midpoint of the rear of the vehicle is set as the first projection point of the vehicle, and the length of the target area is set to n; the pre-driving trajectory n ahead of the first projection point in the driving direction is obtained as the first target area; the first projection point is horizontally projected on the center line of the left lane of the current vehicle, and it is set as the second projection point, and the pre-driving trajectory n ahead of the second projection point is obtained as the second target trajectory; the first projection point is horizontally projected on the center line of the right lane of the current vehicle, and it is set as the third projection point, and the pre-driving trajectory n ahead of the third projection point is obtained as the third target trajectory.

[0039] In this step, n is generally set to 50m, and the midpoint of the rear of the vehicle is determined as the first projection point. According to the current direction of the vehicle, starting from the first projection point, it extends forward 50 meters to obtain the target area on the path. This section of the path is called the first target area. The first projection point is horizontally projected at the center line of the left lane of the current vehicle, and the target area on the path is obtained by extending forward 50 meters from the projection point. This section of the path is the second target area; the first projection point is horizontally projected at the center line of the right lane of the current vehicle, and the target area on the path is obtained by extending forward 50 meters from the projection point. This section of the path is the third target area; through the above steps, the target area in front of the lane where the vehicle is located, i.e., the first target area, the target area of ​​the left lane, i.e., the second target area, and the target area of ​​the right lane, i.e., the third target area, are obtained. This method provides an effective way to identify and judge the relationship between the vehicle and the surrounding environment during driving, laying the foundation for subsequent lane change decision-making.

[0040] Determining whether dangerous obstacles exist in the first target area, the second target area, and the third target area includes the following steps:

[0041] Set the half width of the vehicle to d; obtain the absolute coordinates of the contour point of the first obstacle on the first target trajectory. If the minimum lateral distance between the contour point of the first obstacle and the first projection point is less than d+0.1m, set it as the first dangerous obstacle; repeat the above steps to determine the second obstacle on the second target trajectory, and determine the third obstacle on the third target trajectory.

[0042] In this step, first determine the vehicle parameters, that is, set the half width of the vehicle as d, collect the absolute coordinates of the contour points of the obstacles in the first target area, and for each contour point of the obstacle, calculate its lateral distance Y1 from the first projection point. If the minimum value of Y1 is less than d+0.1m, it is recorded as the first dangerous obstacle; collect the absolute coordinates of the contour points of all possible obstacles in the second target area, and for each contour point of the obstacle, calculate its lateral distance Y2 from the second projection point. If the minimum value of Y2 is less than d+0.1m, it is recorded as the second dangerous obstacle; collect the absolute coordinates of the contour points of all possible obstacles in the third target area, and for each contour point of the obstacle, calculate its lateral distance Y3 from the third projection point. If the minimum value of Y3 is less than d+0.1m, it is recorded as the third dangerous obstacle. Through the above steps, the dangerous obstacles in the first target area, the second target area and the third target area can be effectively judged to pave the way for subsequent lane change decisions and ensure the safety of vehicle driving. By judging obstacles according to the actual lateral distance, it can be identified in time and make corresponding adjustments.

[0043] Based on the ratio of the relative distance and relative speed between the first dangerous obstacle and the vehicle, the first collision time of the first dangerous obstacle is obtained; based on the minimum distance between the first dangerous obstacle and the first projection point of the vehicle, the first distance coefficient of the first dangerous obstacle is calculated; based on the first collision time and the first distance coefficient, the first danger coefficient is calculated; repeat the above steps to calculate the second danger coefficient of the second dangerous obstacle and the third danger coefficient of the third dangerous obstacle.

[0044] In this step, the risk factor of the corresponding dangerous obstacle is calculated by calculating the collision time and distance coefficient of each corresponding dangerous obstacle. It should be noted that the collision time can be recorded as TTC, that is, the ratio of the relative distance and relative speed between the dangerous obstacle and the vehicle; the distance coefficient of the dangerous obstacle is calculated according to the relative longitudinal distance between the dangerous obstacle and the vehicle. Based on the collision time and distance coefficient, the corresponding risk factor can be calculated in the subsequent steps.

[0045] Calculating the corresponding distance coefficient for the corresponding dangerous obstacle includes the following steps:

[0046] Based on the current vehicle, set the corresponding standard distances d1 and d2, set the minimum distance between the first dangerous obstacle and the first projection point of the vehicle to x, and set the first distance coefficient to M1; if x>d1, then M1=0, that is, there is no safety hazard; if x<d2, then M1 is infinite, that is, a collision has occurred; if d2<x<d1, then Repeat the above steps to calculate the second distance coefficient of the second dangerous obstacle and the third distance coefficient of the third dangerous obstacle.

[0047] In this step, the standard distance d1 is the maximum safety distance, and there is no safety hazard when it exceeds this distance; the standard distance d2 is the minimum safety distance, and a collision has occurred when it is lower than this distance; the minimum distance x1 between the first dangerous obstacle and the first projection point of the vehicle is the actual distance between the vehicle and the first dangerous obstacle; M1 is the risk factor for evaluating the first dangerous obstacle. If xi>d1, then Mi=0, that is, there is no safety hazard; if xi<d2, then Mi is infinite, that is, a collision has occurred; if d2<xi<d1, then Through the above steps, the distance coefficients of the first, second and third dangerous obstacles can be calculated. These distance coefficients can help evaluate the danger level of each obstacle and prepare for the subsequent calculation of the danger coefficients of the first, second and third dangerous obstacles.

[0048] Calculating the corresponding risk factor of the corresponding dangerous obstacle includes the following steps:

[0049] Set the standard collision time to TTC0, the first risk factor to W1, and the first collision time to TTC1; if M1=0, then W1=0; if M1 is infinite, then W1 is infinite; if 0<M1<+∞, then Repeat the above steps to calculate the second risk coefficient W2 of the second dangerous obstacle and the third risk coefficient W3 of the third dangerous obstacle.

[0050] In this step, the standard collision time TTC0 is the preset standard time, which is used to evaluate the threshold of collision risk; the first risk coefficient W1, the first distance coefficient M1 and the first collision time TTC1; if Mi = 0, then Wi = 0; if Mi is infinite, then Wi is infinite; if 0 < Mi < +∞, then Through the above steps, you can calculate the risk factors W1, W2 and W3 corresponding to dangerous obstacles. These risk factors can be used as the basis for decision-making.

[0051] Obtaining the lane change decision of the vehicle comprises the following steps:

[0052] Based on the current vehicle, set the corresponding standard risk factor W0;

[0053] If the vehicle is driving in reverse and W1>W0, the vehicle is parked or following; if the vehicle is driving in reverse and W1<W0, the vehicle is reversing normally;

[0054] If the vehicle is moving forward and W1<W0, the vehicle will perform adaptive cruise control; if the vehicle is moving forward and W1>W0 and W2<W0, the vehicle will change lanes to the left; if the vehicle is moving forward and W1>W0 and W2>W0 and W3<W0, the vehicle will change lanes to the right; if the vehicle is moving forward and W1>W0 and W2>W0 and W3>W0, the vehicle will stop or follow a vehicle.

[0055] In this step, the risk coefficients corresponding to the dangerous obstacles in different target areas have been obtained, and based on these coefficients and the set standard risk coefficient W0, a reasonable lane change decision for the vehicle is obtained. Among them, when the vehicle is reversing, W1>W0, that is, there is a dangerous obstacle, then according to the actual application scenario, if the obstacle is stationary, the vehicle will make a parking decision, and if the obstacle is moving, the vehicle will make a following decision; if W1<W0, the vehicle can reverse normally; if the vehicle is moving forward, then the size of W1 and W0 is determined. If W1<W0, the vehicle will cruise adaptively, that is, the vehicle will make a normal driving decision. If W1>W0, the left lane is given priority. The size of W2 and W0, if W2<W0, the vehicle will make a left lane change decision, and if W2>W0, the right lane will be considered. The size of W3 and W0, if W3<W0, the vehicle makes a decision to change lanes right. If W3>W0, it means that it is impossible to change lanes. According to the actual application scenario, if the obstacle is stationary, the vehicle will make a decision to stop. If the obstacle is moving, the vehicle will make a decision to follow the vehicle.

[0056] In a second aspect, the embodiment of the present application further provides a vehicle lane changing decision system based on a closed park, and the vehicle lane changing decision system based on a closed park includes:

[0057] An information acquisition module is used to obtain the road rules of the closed park and the behavior of the vehicle, obtain the target areas of the variable lane and the left and right lanes where the vehicle is traveling, and obtain the absolute coordinates and speed information of the dangerous obstacles in the corresponding target areas; a vehicle management module is used to preliminarily judge the behavior of the vehicle based on the road rules of the closed park; calculate the risk coefficient of the corresponding dangerous obstacle, and compare it with the set standard risk coefficient to obtain the lane changing decision of the vehicle, and then apply the lane changing decision to the vehicle control end.

[0058] In this system, the information acquisition module obtains the target trajectory information of the lane where the current vehicle is located and its left and right lanes, obtains the absolute coordinates of the first, second and third dangerous obstacles and the relative speed with the vehicle; uses sensors such as laser radar, camera or ultrasonic sensor to scan and obtain the target trajectory. Obstacle detection detects surrounding obstacles in real time and converts their coordinates into absolute coordinates based on the vehicle projection point. Using sensor data and vehicle speed, calculate the speed of each obstacle relative to the vehicle, and output the target trajectory and obstacle information of the current lane, left and right lanes for processing by the information processing module. It should be noted that the information processing module receives information from the information acquisition module, calculates the relevant data of dangerous obstacles and vehicles, and assigns standard parameters, and then passes the information processing results to the vehicle management module. The vehicle management module compares the processed data and makes a lane change decision based on the results, which is applied to the vehicle control end; this closed park vehicle lane change decision system can effectively improve the safety and intelligence level of vehicle driving through the collaborative work of three modules. Through real-time monitoring, data processing and decision execution, the safe lane change of vehicles in a dynamic environment is guaranteed.
