Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of automotive electronics technology, and in particular to a control method, storage medium, device and system for a door anti-collision radar. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid advancement of automotive technology, people are increasingly interested in vehicle comfort features. As a key feature that combines safety and comfort, door collision avoidance radars are increasingly favored by many automakers. Currently, many cars are equipped with door collision avoidance radars, often in conjunction with power doors. When the user issues a door opening command, the motor drives the door to open automatically. During this process, the door collision avoidance radar accurately detects surrounding obstacles in real time. Using advanced algorithms, it quickly calculates the safe door opening angle and transmits this critical information to the door control system. Upon receiving this information, the door control system precisely controls the door opening to the corresponding safe angle, effectively preventing collisions with obstacles during the automatic opening process. This provides users with a more convenient and safe door opening experience, significantly enhancing the overall safety and comfort of the vehicle.

[0003] However, in current applications, door-opening collision avoidance radars are only effective during the brief moments when the door is open, resulting in relatively low utilization. The radars are idle during most of the vehicle's lifecycle, resulting in a minimal percentage of effective operating time. This, in turn, leads to high overall costs, hindering the wider application and promotion of this technology in the automotive industry. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a control method for a door collision avoidance radar, which can improve the utilization rate of the door collision avoidance radar, reduce the idle time of the door collision avoidance radar, and thus reduce the overall cost of the door collision avoidance radar.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: a control method for a door collision avoidance radar, the door collision avoidance radar including a sleep mode, a standby mode, a door opening command detection mode, a door collision avoidance mode, a parking assist mode, and a driving assist mode. The sleep mode disables all functions of the door collision avoidance radar; in the door opening command detection mode, the door collision avoidance radar can only transmit and receive messages with the vehicle body bus; the door opening command detection mode is used to detect whether a person has opened a door and determine which door to open based on the door opening behavior; the door collision avoidance mode is used to monitor whether there is an obstacle outside the door during the door opening process and control the door opening action based on the obstacle situation; the parking assist mode is used to monitor the obstacle situation around the vehicle body during parking and provide feedback to the driver based on the obstacle situation around the vehicle body; the driving assist mode is used to detect obstacles around the vehicle body during driving, predict the collision risk with the obstacle, and provide feedback to the driver on the collision risk with the obstacle; wherein the detection parameters of the door collision avoidance radar are different in each operating mode, and the control method specifically includes the following steps:

[0006] monitoring messages on the vehicle body bus, and if the vehicle is currently in the sleep mode and receives any message, exiting the sleep mode and entering the standby mode; if no message is received for a period of time greater than a first threshold, exiting the current working mode and entering the sleep mode;

[0007] Obtain key position, vehicle speed and door status through messages from the vehicle body bus;

[0008] If the key is within the first range outside the vehicle, the door is not open and the vehicle speed is 0, then the door opening command detection mode is entered; if the key is outside the first range outside the vehicle, the door is open or the key is inside the vehicle, then the door opening command detection mode is exited;

[0009] If the door opening button is pressed or the door opening action is detected, the door anti-collision mode is entered; if the door is already opened, the door anti-collision mode is exited;

[0010] If the vehicle speed is within the second range and the door is closed, the parking assist mode is entered; if the door is open or the vehicle speed is outside the second range, the parking assist mode is exited;

[0011] If the vehicle speed is greater than the second threshold and the door is closed, the driving assistance mode is entered; if the door is open or the vehicle speed is less than or equal to the second threshold, the driving assistance mode is exited.

[0012] Compared with the existing technology, the beneficial effect of the present invention is that: by setting multiple working modes for the door anti-collision radar, the door anti-collision radar can be used not only to prevent the car door from colliding with obstacles when the door is opened, but also to detect door opening instructions, assist parking, and assist driving anti-collision, thereby improving the utilization rate of the door anti-collision radar, reducing the idle time of the door anti-collision radar, and reducing the number of other functional sensors required, thereby reducing the overall cost of the door anti-collision radar.

[0052] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Figure 1An embodiment of the present invention provides a control method for a door collision avoidance radar installed on the outside of a vehicle door. The door collision avoidance radar includes six operating modes: sleep mode, standby mode, door opening command detection mode, door collision avoidance mode, parking assist mode, and driving assist mode. The door collision avoidance radar performs all functions in sleep mode. In door opening command detection mode, the door collision avoidance radar can only transmit and receive messages with the vehicle body bus, and the detection function is disabled. The door opening command detection mode detects whether a person has opened a door and determines which door to open based on the door opening behavior. The door collision avoidance mode monitors whether there are obstacles outside the door during the door opening process and controls the door opening action based on the presence of obstacles. The parking assist mode monitors obstacles around the vehicle body during parking and provides feedback to the driver based on the obstacle situation. The driving assist mode detects obstacles around the vehicle body during driving, predicts the risk of collision with obstacles, and provides feedback to the driver on the risk of collision with obstacles. Each operating mode has different detection parameters for the door collision avoidance radar, as well as different algorithm parameters for target clustering and track processing. Specifically, in this embodiment, the control method includes the following steps:

[0053] Monitor messages on the vehicle body bus. If the vehicle is currently in sleep mode and receives any message, it exits the sleep mode and enters the standby mode. If no message is received for a period of time greater than a first threshold, it exits the current working mode and enters the sleep mode.

[0054] Obtain key position, vehicle speed and door status through messages from the vehicle body bus;

[0055] If the key is within the first range outside the vehicle, the door is not open and the vehicle speed is 0, the door opening command detection mode is entered; if the key is outside the first range outside the vehicle, the door is open or the key is inside the vehicle, the door opening command detection mode is exited;

[0056] If the door opening button is pressed or the door opening action is detected, the system enters the door collision avoidance mode; if the door is already opened, the system exits the door collision avoidance mode;

[0057] If the vehicle speed is between 1km / h and 10km / h and the door is closed, the parking assist mode is entered; if the door is open or the vehicle speed exceeds 10km / h, the parking assist mode is exited;

[0058] If the vehicle speed is greater than 10km / h and the door is closed, the driving assistance mode is entered; if the door is open or the vehicle speed is less than or equal to 10km / h, the driving assistance mode is exited.

[0059] This door collision avoidance radar control method reduces its power consumption during parking by switching between standby and sleep modes based on the presence or absence of bus messages. The control method also automatically determines the operating scenario based on information such as the key position, driving speed, and door status obtained via the vehicle body bus, and automatically switches to the corresponding operating mode. This allows the door collision avoidance radar to be used not only for door opening collision avoidance assistance but also for door opening command detection and obstacle detection during parking and driving. This expands the door collision avoidance radar's application scenarios, avoids its use solely for door opening, improves its utilization rate, and reduces its idle time, thereby improving its installation cost-effectiveness and reducing its overall cost. Because the door collision avoidance radar controlled by this method can also be used for door opening command detection, parking, and driving, it reduces the number and quality of sensors required for other functional scenarios, reducing the overall cost of vehicle intelligence.

[0060] It is understandable that when door collision avoidance radar is used in different scenarios, the radar's operating detection parameters, the target identification clustering algorithm, and the parameters of the track processing algorithm should be set according to the detection distance, field of view, speed accuracy, and speed characteristics of the target object required by the different scenarios. For example, when used in door opening command detection mode, the detection distance should be limited to a range of about 1m outside the vehicle door. The field of view needs to be large to capture the trajectory and movement of human footsteps. The radar data update frequency needs to be fast, such as above 50Hz, to capture the detailed movement of footsteps. The track processing algorithm should focus on the trajectory movement within a certain number of consecutive frames. When used in a door collision avoidance system, it should be limited to obstacle detection within a relatively close distance outside the door. The detection distance should be around 20cm outside the door, and the detection sensitivity should be set to around -90dBm to detect targets with low reflectivity, such as bicycles. The detection parameters in parking assist mode can be set in a hierarchical manner, with different parameters set according to the distance to the obstacle. Different field of view angles and resolutions are used for different distances. For example, when the distance to the parking space is far, a narrower field of view angle and a lower resolution are used to capture as many obstacles as possible within a wider range around. After entering the parking space, a larger field of view angle and a higher resolution are used to achieve high-precision feedback on the obstacle position, so as to avoid scratches with surrounding obstacles or vehicles when parking in narrow and dense parking environments. In driving assist mode, a larger detection range is required, such as detecting obstacles within about 35 meters outside the vehicle, and a higher detection accuracy of the target's speed is required to more accurately judge the risk of collision. Targets can be prioritized according to their distance, with higher weights given to targets at closer distances, so that the algorithm pays more attention to the dynamics of nearby obstacles with higher collision risks.

[0061] Specifically, refer to Figure 2In this embodiment, the door opening command detection mode specifically includes the following steps:

[0062] Switching the detection parameters of the door anti-collision radar to the preset parameters of the door opening command detection mode;

[0063] Obtaining clustering algorithm and track processing algorithm parameters of the door opening command detection mode;

[0064] Cluster the detection data of each door anti-collision radar and send the clustered targets to other door anti-collision radars through the vehicle body bus;

[0065] Each gate anti-collision radar performs track processing on all received clustered targets;

[0066] Cache 30 frames of track processing data. Based on the track processing results of 30 consecutive frames, determine whether the target is approaching the vehicle from 1 meter away. If so, proceed to the next step.

[0067] Determine whether the target's trajectory stops in the designated door opening area, if so, proceed to the next step;

[0068] Determine whether the key position is consistent with the target's track position. If so, proceed to the next step.

[0069] According to the target's track stop position, the corresponding door opening signal is sent to the vehicle body bus to open the door at the corresponding position.

[0070] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 Taking a left-hand drive four-door sedan as an example, the B-pillar and C-pillar on the left and right sides of the four-door sedan are used as reference points to determine which door to open. If the track ends near the B1 pillar on the driver's side, the left front door is opened; if the track ends near the C1 pillar on the driver's side, the left rear door is opened; if the track ends near the B2 pillar on the passenger side, the right front door is opened; if the track ends near the C2 pillar on the passenger side, the right rear door is opened. It will be appreciated that in some embodiments, when the car key is not in the vehicle, the location of the car key can be compared with the location where the track ends to avoid opening the door to non-target persons.

[0071] Reference Figure 4 In this embodiment, the door anti-collision mode specifically includes the following steps:

[0072] Switching the detection parameters of the door anti-collision radar to the preset parameters of the door anti-collision mode;

[0073] Obtaining clustering algorithm and track processing algorithm parameters of the door collision avoidance mode;

[0074] Clustering and track processing of data received by door collision avoidance radar;

[0075] Based on the track processing results, it is determined whether there is an obstacle within 20 cm outside the door. If there is an obstacle, a stop door opening signal is sent to the vehicle body bus.

[0076] Reference Figure 5 In this embodiment, the parking assistance mode includes the following steps:

[0077] Switching detection parameters of the door anti-collision radar to preset parameters of the parking assist mode;

[0078] Obtaining clustering algorithm and track processing algorithm parameters of the parking assistance mode;

[0079] Clustering and track processing of data received by door collision avoidance radar;

[0080] Obtain obstacle information based on the track processing results and send obstacle information within 2m outside the vehicle to the vehicle body bus;

[0081] Determine whether there is an obstacle within 20cm outside the vehicle, and issue a warning signal if there is an obstacle.

[0082] Reference Figure 6 In this embodiment, the driving assistance mode includes the following steps:

[0083] Switching detection parameters of the door anti-collision radar to preset parameters of the driving assistance mode;

[0084] Obtaining clustering algorithm and track processing algorithm parameters of the driving assistance mode;

[0085] Clustering and track processing of data received by door collision avoidance radar;

[0086] Obtain obstacle information based on the track processing results and send obstacle information within 35m outside the vehicle to the vehicle body bus;

[0087] The expected collision time between each obstacle and the vehicle is calculated based on the driving speed. If there is an obstacle with an expected collision time of less than 2s, a warning signal will be issued.

[0088] In some embodiments, in the driving assistance mode, after obtaining the obstacle information, the obstacle information detected by the door anti-collision radar can be compared with the obstacle information detected by the vehicle-mounted camera or lidar for consistency, and they can be verified with each other to improve the accuracy of obstacle detection.
