Currently, common autonomous driving sensors include lidar, ultrasonic sensors, cameras, and radars, etc. However, the performance of these sensors has limitations in some complex weather conditions, insufficient lighting, occlusion, and other environments. Therefore, seeking a new type of navigation method and system that can maintain high precision under various environmental conditions has become an important research direction. Due to its ability to control the propagation of electromagnetic waves, intelligent metasurface materials have shown great potential in the fields of electromagnetic imaging, sensing, and navigation. By designing a metasurface with intelligent adjustment functions on the outer surface of the vehicle, it is possible to perceive and image the vehicle's surrounding environment using electromagnetic waves without relying on traditional sensors, thereby achieving precise navigation and obstacle detection. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze a method and system device for electromagnetic imaging navigation of intelligent vehicle surfaces using metamaterials.

This invention uses iBeacon rough positioning and lidar vector line segment matching for fine positioning to perform positioning and navigation in the underground environment, obtains the obstacle distribution distance information based on the method of fusion perception, and reduces the distance error by fitting the curve of the relationship between the signal strength and distance of the Bluetooth base station, so as to improve the positioning and navigation accuracy and solve the deficiencies in the prior art.

[0004] In the prior art, information technology consulting can meet the basic requirements, but there are also some potential defects and challenges, which are specifically reflected in the following aspects: In the prior art, the analysis of the navigation performance index of the traditional sensors in each part carried by the vehicle during historical driving is not accurate enough, reducing the scanning frequency and sensitivity of the lidar, lacking timely judgment of whether there are sensor failures or errors, resulting in signal occlusion effects, decreased positioning accuracy, increasing the limitations of traditional sensors, and further affecting the judgment of whether the navigation performance of the traditional sensors in each part carried by the vehicle during historical driving is abnormal, resulting in insufficient analysis of the obstacle collision index of the intelligent metasurface material units installed in each part of the vehicle during driving, increasing the error rate of issuing instructions to the vehicle's driving control system, affecting path updates, and reducing the overall performance and safety of the system. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a vehicle intelligent surface metamaterial electromagnetic imaging navigation method and system device, which solves the problems existing in the background technology.

[0010] Vehicle Navigation Cooperative Control: Based on the obstacle collision index of the intelligent metasurface material units installed on various parts of the vehicle during driving, an electromagnetic field model of the surrounding environment is constructed and fused with the vehicle's navigation map to perform path planning and obstacle avoidance operations.

[0011] Furthermore, the navigation performance index of the traditional sensors installed on various parts of the vehicle during historical driving is analyzed. The specific analysis method is as follows: Based on the obtained traditional sensor operation data, where the traditional sensor operation data includes the time interval, number, and output signal difference of the laser pulses of the traditional sensors installed on various parts of the vehicle at each time period, and the input light intensity difference, the time interval of the laser pulses is divided by the number of laser pulses to obtain the scanning frequency of the traditional sensors installed on various parts of the vehicle at each time period during historical driving. And the change in the output signal is divided by the change in the input light intensity to obtain the sensitivity of the traditional sensors installed on various parts of the vehicle at each time period during historical driving. Then, the reference sensitivity and reference scanning frequency of the traditional sensors installed on various parts of the vehicle during historical driving are extracted from the database, and further, the navigation performance index of the traditional sensors installed on various parts of the vehicle during historical driving is analyzed. The specific calculation formula is as follows: Among them, q i ' represents the reference scanning frequency of the traditional sensor at the i-th part of the vehicle during historical driving, q ui represents the scanning frequency of the traditional sensor at the i-th part of the vehicle during the u-th time period of historical driving, d i ' represents the reference sensitivity of the traditional sensor at the i-th part of the vehicle during historical driving, d ui ' represents the sensitivity of the traditional sensor at the i-th part of the vehicle during the u-th time period of historical driving. i represents the part number, i = 1, 2, 3,..., e, e represents the number of parts, u represents the time period number, u = 1, 2, 3,..., l, and l represents the number of time periods.

[0012] Further, to determine whether the traditional sensors of each part installed in the vehicle during historical driving are abnormal, the specific analysis method is as follows: Based on the obtained navigation performance indexes of the traditional sensors of each part installed in the vehicle during historical driving, obtain the qualified interval of the navigation performance indexes of the traditional sensors of each part installed in the vehicle during historical driving from the database, and compare the navigation performance indexes of the traditional sensors of each part installed in the vehicle during historical driving with the qualified interval of the navigation performance indexes. If the navigation performance index of the traditional sensor of a certain part installed in the vehicle during historical driving is not within the qualified interval of the navigation performance indexes, it is determined that the traditional sensor of this part installed in the vehicle during historical driving is in an abnormal state, and the intelligent metasurface material units installed in each part of the vehicle are activated, and then the electromagnetic imaging module is obtained to generate an electromagnetic imaging image.

[0013] Further, the electromagnetic imaging module includes: An electromagnetic wave transmitting unit: This unit generates electromagnetic waves through the metasurface material, propagates around the vehicle and interacts with objects.

The electromagnetic wave transmitting data includes the electromagnetic wave transmitting frequency, the electromagnetic intensity in each direction, and the angular range of the beam. The electromagnetic wave receiving data includes the number of electron distributions, voltage, and heat phase change value. Then, the obstacle collision index P of the intelligent metasurface material units installed in each part of the vehicle during driving is analyzed. i Based on the prior art, it is determined whether the vehicle can avoid obstacles during driving on the original path.

And through spectrum analysis, the size, position, and shape of the obstacle are obtained by matching the signal eigenvalue in frequency, and time delay analysis and frequency analysis are carried out, and an electromagnetic field model of the surrounding environment is constructed and fused with the vehicle's navigation map to perform obstacle detection, and the obstacle collision index of the intelligent metasurface material units installed at various parts of the vehicle during driving is obtained.

[0017] Furthermore, the method for analyzing the path safety index of the intelligent metasurface material units installed at various parts of the vehicle during driving on the updated path is as follows: Based on the obtained updated path data, where the updated path data includes the electron distribution quantity, voltage, and heat phase change value of the intelligent metasurface material units installed at various parts of the vehicle during driving on the updated path, and the reference electron distribution quantity, reference voltage, and reference heat phase change value of the intelligent metasurface material units installed at various parts of the vehicle during driving on the updated path are extracted from the database. Then, the path safety index of the intelligent metasurface material units installed at various parts of the vehicle during driving on the updated path is analyzed. The specific calculation formula is: where v' i 、j' i 、f' i respectively represent the reference electron distribution quantity, reference voltage, and reference heat phase change value of the intelligent metasurface material units installed at various parts of the vehicle during driving on the updated path, and v i 、j i 、f i respectively represent the electron distribution quantity, voltage, and heat phase change value of the intelligent metasurface material units installed at various parts of the vehicle during driving on the updated path. And the updated path planning is carried out, and it is judged whether there is a safety risk in the updated driving path.

[0018] Further, to determine whether there is a safety risk in the updated driving path, the specific analysis method is as follows: Based on the path safety index of the intelligent metasurface material units installed on various parts of the vehicle during driving on the updated path, and extracting the corresponding safety level divisions from the database, obtaining the safety level, relatively safe level, warning level, and danger level. When the updated path safety index is at the warning level or danger level, an early warning signal is sent in a timely manner to remind the driver to pay attention to safety. By adjusting the optical and electrical properties through the electronic distribution reference quantity, reference voltage, and heat reference phase change value, intelligent perception and dynamic response are achieved, changing the reflectivity of the intelligent metasurface materials installed on various parts of the vehicle during driving on the updated path, adjusting the intelligent metasurface materials, and based on the generated environmental model, combining with the in-vehicle navigation system to update the path, and combining traffic signals and driving speed limits to optimize the updated path and adjust the strategy in a timely manner.
