Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of urban public transportation services, and is applied to electronically guided rubber-wheel systems and public transportation systems, and in particular to a method and system for streamline planning and berth scheduling for hub platforms. Background Art

[0002] The transformation of platforms into small hubs is an important part of modern urban planning, which aims to optimize the allocation of transportation resources, improve transportation efficiency, promote the integrated development of transportation and enhance the level of public services. Against the background of rapid urban development and increasing transportation demand, the transformation of platforms into small hubs will become an important direction of urban planning and transportation construction.

[0003] The main operating mode of the intelligent rail express system (hereinafter referred to as the intelligent rail) is the "trunk + branch" mode. In this mode, passengers need to take a branch bus to enter the intelligent rail corridor first, and then transfer to the intelligent rail trunk line at the hub platform to achieve their travel purpose. In this mode, there are higher requirements for the small hub of the intelligent rail platform.

[0004] The purpose of building smart rail stations into small hubs is to centralize and unify the management of the originally scattered and independent transportation stations in a certain area, provide passengers with convenient and efficient transfer services, and meet the passengers' needs for connecting different modes of transportation.

[0005] At present, the smart rail hub platform is facing complex traffic connections. The flow lines of vehicles coming in and out of the smart rail platform from all directions are not standardized, the buses do not match the platform doors, and there is a phenomenon of queues in front of the station after consecutive buses enter the station. In addition, due to the use of non-fixed parking spaces, passengers wait at the first parking space by default, and need to choose a parking space by looking and running to get on and off the bus. After consecutive buses enter the station, the flow of people on the platform is chaotic, and the service capacity of the station is reduced.

[0006] In view of the problems of the prior art, the present invention provides a method and system for streamline planning and berth scheduling for a hub platform. Summary of the invention

[0007] In view of the problems of the current prior art, the present invention provides a method and system for streamline planning and berth scheduling for a hub platform, the method comprising the following steps:

[0008] Determine the vehicle type and stop type of the vehicle entering the detection interval;

[0009] Based on the vehicle type and the stop type, generating a streamline planning reminder, wherein the streamline planning reminder is used to characterize a suggested streamline for the vehicle to and / or to leave the hub platform;

[0010] If the stop type is required, a berth scheduling result is generated based on the estimated travel time required for the vehicle to reach the hub platform.

[0011] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a hub platform is arranged between the two end points on both sides of the detection section, and a specified lane-changing section is arranged on the road section between each end point of the detection section and the hub platform.

The second type of streamline planning reminder includes: when driving towards the hub platform, reminding the current vehicle to switch from the dedicated lane to the general lane within the specified lane-changing section.

[0017] According to an embodiment of the present invention, for the right to use the dedicated lane, the priority of the intelligent rail train is higher than that of the bus.

[0018] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the berth scheduling result is generated through the following steps:

[0019] Judge whether T is greater than t, where T is the expected driving time, in minutes; t is the time required for the hub platform to be expected to have an idle berth, in minutes;

[0020] If T is greater than t, a first type of berth scheduling result is generated. The first type of berth scheduling result includes the vehicle's expected berth docking information and is also used to remind the vehicle to accelerate at the recommended speed;

[0021] If T is less than or equal to t, a second type of berth scheduling result is generated, where the second type of berth scheduling result includes information on the berth where the vehicle is expected to dock and is also used to remind the vehicle to decelerate at the recommended speed.

[0022] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the method includes the following steps: enabling the emergency door of the hub platform when the number of available berths at the hub platform is zero.

[0023] According to another aspect of the present invention, a storage medium is also provided, which includes a series of instructions for executing the method steps as described above.

[0045] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the following further describes the embodiments of the present invention in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0046] The electronically guided rubber-wheeled tram (including smart rail trams and similar medium- and low-capacity urban rail transit systems that are mainly operated on the ground, collectively referred to as "smart rail trains" in this application) is a new type of multi-unit rubber-wheeled vehicle that travels in both directions. It is based on the design concept of traditional rail transit systems, adopts full-axle steering control technology, and electronically constrains driving through active safety control, on-board signal control, machine vision, etc., to achieve track-like driving on virtual tracks. The electronically guided rubber-wheeled tram belongs to the rail transit operation mode that follows the ground-based rail transit operation mode and can be driven on existing municipal roads. In current actual projects, semi-independent right of way is often used for line laying. The fast and punctual characteristics of the tram are guaranteed by priority control of right of way and traffic signals. It is also possible to achieve full-section networking control through independent right of way to ensure that the trains are fast and punctual.

[0047] The Zhigui train (tram) is a means of transportation developed by CRRC Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Research Institute Co., Ltd. It has a designed maximum speed of 70 kilometers per hour, adopts high-speed rail flexible marshaling, uses "virtual track following control" technology to run on a predetermined "virtual track", has zero emissions and pollution-free characteristics, and supports multiple power supply methods.

[0048] The prior art (202211019522.7) provides a method, system, equipment and readable medium for transferring between a smart rail train and a bus, and proposes a method for transferring between a platform hub and a bus. By setting a platform risk section, it is determined whether the bus can enter the smart rail transfer platform, thereby ensuring safe transfer between the smart rail and the bus at the same station and avoiding the risk of collision. However, this prior art only involves the bus in the direction of the smart rail entering the smart rail hub platform for transfer, and does not consider the bus exiting the platform and the bus in other directions entering the platform for transfer.

[0049] In view of the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention is based on the smart rail system and the public transportation system, and takes into account the streamline of bus entry and exit, hub berth management, passenger and vehicle flow distribution, traffic information consultation and other service functions, to establish a small hub solution for smart rail platforms, so as to achieve seamless connection and transfer between buses and smart rails, so as to improve the availability of the smart rail system and enhance the travel experience of passengers.

[0050] The public transportation system involved in the present invention includes an electronically guided rubber-wheel system and a bus system, including factors such as vehicles, ground and platforms. With the existing smart rail lines as the background, based on the smart rail running in the road, taking the island platform in the intersection and the staggered side platform in the road as examples, a small hub solution for the smart rail platform is proposed, which is mainly used to achieve safe transfer between the smart rail and the bus, orderly enter the transfer hub, and realize real-time transfer information broadcasting and other service functions. It should be noted that the streamline planning of the hub platform is for the streamline planning of driving to and leaving the hub platform, not a simple bus exchange route planning. The present invention is also applicable to other rail transit systems or transportation systems operated in accordance with rail transit.

[0051] Figure 1 Shows a flowchart of a flow line planning and berth scheduling method for a hub platform according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method includes the following steps:

[0052] S101, determine the vehicle type and docking type of the vehicle entering the detection section.

[0053] Exemplarily, as Figure 2 shown, the type of the vehicle entering the detection section can be determined by an interval detector, and the docking type of the vehicle can be determined by the driving platform of the vehicle. The vehicle types include buses and intelligent rail trains; the docking types include those that need to dock and those that do not need to dock.

[0054] S102, based on the vehicle type and docking type, generate a flow line planning reminder, where the flow line planning reminder is used to represent the recommended flow line for the vehicle to drive towards and / or away from the hub platform.

[0055] Exemplarily, the flow line planning reminder can be generated by the hub platform system. Different vehicle types and different docking types result in different generated flow line planning reminders. In this way, the standardization of the flow line when the vehicle drives towards and away from the hub platform is improved.

[0056] S103, if the docking type is that it needs to dock, generate a berth scheduling result according to the estimated driving time required for the vehicle to reach the hub platform.

[0057] If the docking type is that it needs to dock, at this time, the estimated driving time for the vehicle to reach the hub platform can be obtained according to the vehicle arrival, so as to generate a berth scheduling result. The vehicle can be a bus or an intelligent rail train.

[0058] In a possible embodiment, the hub platform is arranged between the two end points of the detection section, and a specified lane-changing section is arranged on the road section between each end point of the detection section and the hub platform. Within the specified lane-changing section, the vehicle is allowed to switch from the ordinary lane to the dedicated lane or from the dedicated lane to the ordinary lane.

[0059] As Figure 2 shown, the ordinary lane can be the driving lane for buses. The dedicated lane is the driving lane for intelligent rail trains, and the specified section of the dedicated lane can be the driving lane for buses. The specified lane-changing section includes intersections and lane-changing branch intersections. A specified lane-changing section is arranged between each end point of the detection section and the hub platform to enable the vehicle to switch from the ordinary lane to the dedicated lane or from the dedicated lane to the ordinary lane. The hub platform can be the platform where the intelligent rail train docks, or the platform where both the intelligent rail train and the bus dock.

[0060] In a possible embodiment, when the vehicle type is a bus and the docking type is a required docking, a streamline planning reminder is generated through the following steps:

[0061] If the current vehicle is in the general lane when entering the detection area, a first type of streamline planning reminder is generated. The first type of streamline planning reminder includes: when driving towards the hub platform, reminding the current vehicle to switch from the general lane to the dedicated lane in the specified lane-changing area; when leaving the hub platform, reminding the current vehicle to switch from the dedicated lane to the general lane in the specified lane-changing area.

[0062] Among them, when the vehicle type is a bus and the docking type is a required docking, it can indicate that the hub platform is a transfer station for buses and intelligent rail trains.

[0063] As Figure 2 shown, hub platforms are mostly located at intersections. When a bus drives towards the offset side platform in the middle of the intersection road, the direction of the bus driving towards the hub platform can be determined according to the driving trajectory of the bus, so as to obtain the direction for the bus to switch to the dedicated lane in the specified lane-changing area, so as to remind the bus to switch to the dedicated lane in the specified lane-changing area. If the direction of the bus driving towards the offset side platform in the middle of the intersection road is straight, the bus goes straight at the intersection to drive towards the hub platform. If the direction of the bus driving towards the offset side platform in the middle of the intersection road is left turn, the bus turns left at the intersection to drive towards the hub platform. If the direction of the bus driving towards the hub platform is right turn, considering that the bus turning right directly at the intersection to drive towards the hub platform will invade the limit of the oncoming dedicated lane, increase the vehicle queue length, and affect the vehicle passing efficiency at the intersection. Therefore, the bus turns right at the intersection and enters the dedicated lane at the lane-changing fork.

[0064] As Figure 3 shown, hub platforms are mostly located at intersections. When a bus drives towards the island platform in the middle of the intersection road, the direction of the bus driving towards the hub platform can be determined according to the driving trajectory of the bus, so as to obtain the direction for the bus to switch to the dedicated lane in the specified lane-changing area, so as to remind the current vehicle to switch to the dedicated lane in the specified lane-changing area. If the direction of the bus driving towards the island platform in the middle of the intersection road is straight, the bus goes straight at the intersection to drive towards the hub platform. If the direction of the bus driving towards the island platform in the middle of the intersection road is left turn, the bus turns left at the intersection to drive towards the hub platform. If the direction of the bus driving towards the island platform in the middle of the intersection road is right turn, the bus turns right at the intersection to drive towards the hub platform.

[0065] When the bus leaves the hub platform, it will remind the current vehicle to switch from the dedicated vehicle to the general lane in the specified lane-changing area.

[0066] In a possible embodiment, when the vehicle type is a bus and the stopping type is not required to stop, a streamline planning reminder is generated through the following steps:

[0067] If the current vehicle is in a dedicated lane when entering the detection section, a second type of streamline planning reminder is generated. The second type of streamline planning reminder includes: when driving towards the hub platform, reminding the current vehicle to switch from the dedicated lane to the general lane in the specified lane-changing section.

[0068] When the vehicle type is a bus and the stopping type is not required to stop, it indicates that the hub platform is not a transfer station for buses and intelligent rail trains. At this time, if the current vehicle is in a dedicated lane when entering the detection section, when driving towards the hub platform, remind the current vehicle to switch from the dedicated lane to the general lane in the specified lane-changing section.

[0069] In a possible embodiment, for the right of use of the dedicated lane, the priority of the intelligent rail train is higher than that of the bus.

[0070] Exemplarily, when the bus meets the intelligent rail train when entering the specified lane-changing section, the priority of the intelligent rail train is higher than that of the bus. In other cases where the intelligent rail train and the bus meet in the dedicated lane, the intelligent rail train takes precedence over the bus.

[0071] In a possible embodiment, a berth scheduling result is generated through the following steps:

[0072] Judge whether T is greater than t, where T is the estimated travel time, in minutes; t is the time required for the hub platform to be expected to have an idle berth, in minutes;

[0073] If T is greater than t, a first type of berth scheduling result is generated. The first type of berth scheduling result includes the vehicle's estimated berth information for docking and is also used to remind the vehicle to accelerate at the recommended speed;

[0074] If T is less than or equal to t, a second type of berth scheduling result is generated. The second type of berth scheduling result includes the vehicle's estimated berth information for docking and is also used to remind the vehicle to decelerate at the recommended speed.

[0075] Exemplarily, the estimated travel time T required for the vehicle to reach the hub platform can be determined by obtaining the queue length of vehicles at the intersection, the vehicle speed, the status of the traffic lights in the specified lane-changing section, and the number of vehicles entering the hub platform. The time t required for the hub platform to be expected to have an idle berth can be determined by the driving schedule of the vehicles parked at the hub platform.

[0076] If T is greater than t, it indicates that the time required for the vehicle to reach the hub platform is greater than the time when there are expected to be idle berths at the hub platform. Then, the vehicle's expected berthing position information is generated based on the position of the idle berths at the hub platform to generate the first type of berth scheduling result. The first type of berth scheduling result is also used to remind the vehicle to accelerate at the recommended speed. The recommended speed can be calculated based on the arrival time and the berth clearance time, or it can be obtained through the departure schedule and the vehicle operation characteristic data.

[0077] If T is less than or equal to t, it indicates that the time required for the vehicle to reach the hub platform is less than or equal to the time when there are expected to be idle berths at the hub platform. Then, the vehicle's expected berthing position information is generated based on the position of the idle berths at the hub platform to generate the second type of berth scheduling result. The second type of berth scheduling result is also used to remind the vehicle to decelerate at the recommended speed.

[0078] After that, the interval detector detects whether the vehicle has left the hub platform. When it is detected that the vehicle has left the hub platform, combined with the platform display device and voice broadcast, passengers can go to the designated boarding area in advance to wait, ensuring the normal order of getting on and off the vehicle and preventing dangerous accidents caused by the chaos of the crowd at the hub platform, enhancing the reliable applicability of the hub platform.

[0079] In a possible embodiment, the method includes the following steps: enabling the standby doors of the hub platform when the number of idle berths at the hub platform is equal to zero.

[0080] As Figure 4 shown, the berths at the hub platform can be composed of different numbers of platform doors. For example, 2 - 3 platform doors can form the berth for a bus, and 5 - 6 platform doors can form the berth for an intelligent rail train. The specific berth design is determined by the body design of the actual bus and intelligent rail train. The hub platform meets the platform door layout that is compatible with buses and intelligent rail trains. During the off-peak period, the hub platform has 10 platform doors. In this way, it can accommodate 1 intelligent rail train and 1 bus at the same time, or 3 buses at the same time. However, with the gradual formation of the intelligent rail network, the demand for transfer hub berths is continuously increasing. When the number of idle berths at the hub platform is equal to zero (during the peak period), the standby doors on both sides of the platform end are enabled (as Figure 4 and 5As shown in the figure, during peak hours, the hub platform has 12 platform screen doors, enabling it to accommodate 4 buses simultaneously, or 1 APM and 2 buses at the same time. This improves the capacity and utilization rate of the hub platform. Meanwhile, after the vehicle arrives at the hub platform, it can notify passengers to go to the corresponding platform screen doors through the on-vehicle Passenger Information System (PIS), on-vehicle Public Address (PA) system, etc., to remind passengers to get on and off the vehicle, thus enhancing the travel experience of passengers. It should be noted that the number of platform screen doors on the hub platform can also be other values, and the positions of the spare doors are not limited to both ends, and can also be the two frontmost doors or the two rearmost doors as spare doors.

[0081] According to another aspect of the present invention, there is also provided a streamline planning and berth scheduling system for a hub platform, which executes a streamline planning and berth scheduling method for a hub platform, as Figure 6 shown, the system includes:

[0082] Interval detector, which is used to determine the vehicle type and docking type of the vehicle entering the detection interval;

[0083] Hub platform system, which includes a streamline planning module and a berth scheduling module, where:

[0084] The streamline planning module generates a streamline planning reminder based on the vehicle type and docking type, where the streamline planning reminder is used to represent the recommended streamline for the vehicle to approach and / or leave the hub platform;

[0085] If the docking type is required to dock, the berth scheduling module generates a berth scheduling result based on the estimated travel time required for the vehicle to reach the hub platform.

[0086] Vehicle, which is used to receive the streamline planning reminder and the berth scheduling result.

[0087] As Figure 7 shown, the streamline planning module includes: platform screen door system, on-vehicle Public Address (PA) system, and on-vehicle Passenger Information System (PIS), the berth scheduling module includes a berth controller, and the vehicle includes a vehicle communication unit.

[0091] Berth Controller: Connected to the server through the transmission system, it conducts berth control through logical judgment and optimization. Installed on the platform, it is used for the aggregation of platform equipment communication and is connected to the switch to achieve data communication between the platform, vehicles, and the ground.

[0092] Section Detector: Connected to the server through the transmission system, it has functions such as vehicle identification, queue length identification, vehicle speed identification, and judgment of the number of vehicles in the section.

[0093] Vehicle Communication Unit: Installed inside the vehicle, it is used to achieve information transmission between the vehicle and the ground system, realize real-time control of the ground end, and obtain relevant information on the ground.

[0094] A method and system for streamline planning and berth scheduling for a hub platform provided by the present invention can also cooperate with a computer-readable storage medium. A computer program is stored on the storage medium, and the computer program is executed to run a method for streamline planning and berth scheduling for a hub platform. The computer program can run computer instructions, and the computer instructions include computer program code. The computer program code can be in the form of source code, object code, executable file, or some intermediate form, etc.

[0095] The computer-readable storage medium can include: any entity or device capable of carrying computer program code, recording medium, USB flash drive, mobile hard disk, magnetic disk, optical disc, computer memory, read-only memory (ROM, Read-Only Memory), random access memory (RAM, Random Access Memory), electrical carrier signal, telecommunication signal, and software distribution medium, etc.

[0096] It should be noted that the content included in the computer-readable storage medium can be appropriately increased or decreased according to the requirements of legislation and patent practice within the jurisdiction. For example, in some jurisdictions, according to legislation and patent practice, the computer-readable storage medium does not include electrical carrier signals and telecommunication signals.
