Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of vehicle control devices, and particularly relates to a method and system for detecting vehicles using millimeter-wave radar. Background Art

[0002] Currently, most mines use positioning based on UWB technology. Since the UWB technology cannot accurately identify the requirements of vehicle speed, vehicle direction, and vehicle distance, the congestion problem cannot be solved in many cases. Some mines use lidar, but due to the influence of factors such as the changing underground environment over time, signal detection and signal coverage have blind spots, resulting in problems such as a high false alarm rate and large distance errors in positioning target objects. It is difficult to capture effective and accurate signal sources, and from a systematic perspective, it is impossible to effectively count the traffic flow and vehicle speed statistics data in a specific roadway during a specific time period. Therefore, under the multiple factors of equipment hardware failures, complex underground mine environment interference, electromagnetic waves generated by wireless signal sources, and unstable positions of base station signal coverage, neither UWB technology nor lidar technology can effectively and accurately detect vehicles.

[0003] The current transportation environment of underground trackless rubber-tired vehicles relies on the self-discipline of drivers to abide by the traffic regulations of underground trackless rubber-tired vehicles. Due to the small space in the underground environment, especially in the roadway for round trips to the working face, drivers often do not know whether there are vehicles traveling in the roadway, their traveling positions, and how far they are from the chamber, resulting in roadway traffic jams. In this case, one trackless rubber-tired vehicle must reverse to give way to the other, which will lead to the defect of reduced utilization rate of trackless rubber-tired vehicles. Even more, when multiple trackless rubber-tired vehicles enter the same roadway during the same time period, it will inevitably lead to vehicle congestion and may also cause unnecessary accidents.

[0004] The prior art has the following deficiencies: However, in a complex mine environment, the transportation environment of trackless rubber-tired vehicles has unique terrain and irregular tunnel walls, which may cause reflection and diffraction phenomena of millimeter-wave radar in the complex mine environment, resulting in misjudgment of the vehicle detection system. And in a narrow mine roadway, when there are multiple trackless rubber-tired vehicle targets at the same time, the millimeter-wave radar signal may be affected by reflection and occlusion, making it difficult for the vehicle detection system to accurately identify and locate multiple targets. In addition, electromagnetic interference generated by radio transmission equipment and electric mechanical equipment will affect the stability of radar signals and the robustness of the vehicle detection system.

[0005] The above information disclosed in the background art section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present disclosure, and therefore it may include information that does not constitute the prior art known to those of ordinary skill in the art.
