Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of smart terminal operation management, and specifically relates to a terminal buffer zone dynamic management and control method, system, equipment and storage medium based on an FMS system. Background Art
[0002] In existing terminal loading and unloading operations, a certain number of buffer areas are typically set up around quay cranes (QCs) after a ship docks. These areas are used to manage the passage of trucks (i.e., vehicles) before loading and unloading containers, or to temporarily wait. These buffer areas are often fixed after the ship docks and cannot be dynamically adjusted based on the ship's position (such as bow and stern positions), the real-time coordinates of the quay cranes, the number of vehicles online, or real-time operational needs.
[0003] The existing buffer area is statically configured and lacks dynamic adjustment and optimization capabilities. It has the following main disadvantages:
[0004] 1. Static configuration, lack of dynamic optimization: The number and location of buffer zones are fixed at the start of operations, preventing them from being flexibly increased or decreased based on the actual number of trucks, vessel locations, and progress of quay crane operations. When the number of vehicles on the line surges, the buffer zones are insufficient, leading to congestion. However, when the number of vehicles decreases, the buffer zones become excessive, reducing site utilization.
[0005] 2. Inability to combine obstructions with traffic flow conditions for real-time opening and closing: Some quay cranes have solid leg sections that block the corresponding buffer zones, making them impassable. However, traditional systems lack the ability to identify and close these buffer zones in real time, potentially causing vehicles to mistakenly enter impassable areas, resulting in wasted time and reduced efficiency.
[0006] 3. Unclear regional divisions and underutilized priorities: Existing technical solutions lack detailed demarcation of emergency priority zones, routine operation zones, and standby zones, resulting in a lack of flexibility in vehicle allocation and route planning. High-priority vehicles may be unable to quickly find appropriate buffer zones, resulting in reduced smoothness and impacting overall operational efficiency.
[0007] 4. Lack of intelligent threshold control and route planning optimization: The current system lacks precise management of occupancy and vehicle ratio thresholds, and is unable to automatically adjust the number of buffer zones based on real-time data. The lack of route planning optimization algorithms prevents vehicles from providing the shortest or optimal driving paths, resulting in reduced vehicle traffic efficiency and limited terminal operating efficiency and traffic capacity. Summary of the Invention
[0008] In view of the above problems, the main purpose of the present application is to design a wharf buffer zone dynamic management regulation method, system, device and storage medium based on FMS system, which solves the technical problems of no dynamic adjustment and poor optimization ability caused by static configuration of the buffer area through dynamic optimization of the buffer area.

[0012] The buffer zone function division and attribute classification divide the buffer zone into regular operation buffer zone, emergency priority buffer zone and standby buffer zone; and classify according to whether the buffer zone has a lock station attribute, including composite buffer zone and general buffer zone;
[0013] The dynamic start and stop and capacity adjustment collect and continuously monitor the occupation of the activated buffer zone in real time through the FMS system, and dynamically optimize the buffer zone;

[0015] The vehicle path planning calculates the shortest driving path of the vehicle from the specified operation berth to the reserved buffer zone and the target operation point in real time by using the path planning algorithm according to the occupation of the buffer zone.

[0017] As a further description of the present application, in the data acquisition and initialization process, the initialization of the configuration of ship berthing comprises the following steps:
[0018] According to the initial operation information of the ship, a lock station area and a turning area are reserved on both sides of the ship head and the ship tail.
[0019] According to the number of online vehicles and the proportional relationship between the preset number of regular operation buffer zones and the number of online vehicles, the number of regular operation buffer zones is calculated, and the corresponding number of regular operation buffer zones is activated according to the calculation result;
[0020] A plurality of emergency priority buffer zones and a plurality of standby buffer zones are activated by default on both sides of the bow and the stern.
[0021] As a further description of the application, in the process of buffer zone function division and attribute classification, the buffer zones are classified according to whether they have a lock station attribute, including composite buffer zones and general buffer zones; the buffer zones with single-sided lock station or double-sided lock station are composite buffer zones, and the buffer zones without lock station are general buffer zones.
[0022] As a further description of the application, in the process of buffer zone function division and attribute classification, the emergency priority buffer zone is initially activated by 3 units, and is distributed at the end of the buffer zone close to the bow and the stern.
[0023] The regular operation buffer zone starts from the emergency priority zone of the bow and the stern, and gradually extends to the middle of the buffer zone.
[0024] The standby buffer zone is initially activated by 3 units, and is distributed at a position away from the bow and the stern.
[0025] As a further description of the application, in the process of dynamic start and stop and capacity adjustment, dynamic optimization is performed according to the occupation situation of the activated buffer zones, including the following steps:
[0026] Threshold upper limit and threshold lower limit are set based on the occupation situation of the buffer zones, and the occupation rate expression is:
[0027] The occupation rate = the number of occupied buffer zones / the number of activated regular operation buffer zones.
[0028] If the occupation rate exceeds the set threshold upper limit within a preset time period, the number of regular operation buffer zones is increased.
[0029] If the occupation rate is lower than the set threshold lower limit within a preset time period, the number of regular operation buffer zones is closed.
[0030] For the buffer zone blocked by the leg of the quay crane, the blocked buffer zone is identified and closed by projection calculation based on the real-time coordinates of the quay crane.
[0031] As a further description of the application, in the process of vehicle path planning, the disassembly and assembly lock station operation vehicle preferentially selects the composite buffer zone path, and the ordinary operation vehicle preferentially selects the general buffer zone path.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
[0043] Figure 1 It is a whole method flowchart of the application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0044] The application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings:
[0045] In one embodiment of the application, a wharf buffer zone dynamic management regulation method based on an FMS system is disclosed. As shown in FIG. 1, the method comprises the following steps: Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 1, the method comprises the following steps:
[0046] The FMS (Fleet Management System) system is a core management platform for intelligent wharf unmanned vehicle scheduling, and the function modules thereof specifically comprise:
[0047] Task scheduling module: responsible for the management of the automatic driving vehicle's tasks, including the allocation and issuance of tasks such as loading, unloading, and transferring. Based on the task plan issued by the TOS (Terminal Operation System), combined with the terminal operation rules and real-time scene, the module pre-schedules and dynamically adjusts the tasks of empty and heavy vehicles, and then determines a reasonable buffer zone selection strategy.
[0048] Vehicle state management module: real-time monitoring of the running state of all working vehicles, including power, fault condition, current position and other information. The module is visually presented through the FMS front-end system interface, realizing functions such as fault alarm and power threshold reminder, to ensure that the vehicles participating in scheduling have continuous and reliable running capability.
[0049] Path planning module: based on the terminal topology map integrated by FMS, using A* path planning algorithm, combined with real-time information such as lane congestion, closure, and obstacles, the module calculates the optimal traffic path for each vehicle. The module supports dynamic updating of the path, avoids path conflicts, and improves the overall operation smoothness, which is an important foundation for achieving globally optimal buffer zone path scheduling.
[0050] Quay crane interaction management module: realizes the operation coordination with quay cranes (QCs) and rail-mounted gantry cranes and other handling equipment. According to the bridge crane operation state, the module dynamically arranges the vehicle to enter and exit the operation lane, including judging whether the vehicle has the conditions to go up the rack, controlling it to wait or queue in the buffer zone, and ensuring that the buffer zone usage and handling rhythm are kept in synchronization.
[0051] TOS system interface module: this module serves as the interface between the FMS system and the TOS, receives the task distributed by the TOS, and transmits the vehicle operation state in real time, ensuring that the task scheduling of the TOS system is consistent with the vehicle execution in a closed loop. The dynamic management of the buffer zone and the optimization of the vehicle path are both based on the TOS task.
[0052] Quay crane dynamic response module: this module pre-adjusts the vehicle path and buffer zone residence state by receiving the quay crane operation berth change information provided by the TOS or ECS (Equipment Control System). When the target berth changes due to dynamic quay crane operation, the vehicle can temporarily park in the buffer zone, and then enter the operation channel after the new berth is available, ensuring the synchronization and coordination of vehicle and equipment operation.
[0053] In summary, the FMS system works collaboratively through the above-mentioned multiple functional modules, building an intelligent scheduling closed loop among vehicles, tasks, paths, and buffer zones in terminal operation, thereby supporting the practical implementation of the "terminal buffer zone dynamic management and control method" proposed by the present application. The system not only meets the real-time dynamic adjustment needs of the buffer zone, but also improves the overall terminal operation efficiency and resource utilization rate through path optimization and task coordination.
[0054] Specifically, the method comprises data collection and initialization, buffer function division and attribute classification, dynamic start-stop and capacity adjustment, buffer state and front-end display management, and vehicle path planning, and specifically comprises the following steps:
[0055] The data collection and initialization collects wharf information and initializes the configuration of ship berthing according to the wharf information, including the locking station area, the turning area, and the buffer area, and activates a corresponding number of buffer areas in advance;
[0056] The buffer function division and attribute classification divide the buffer area into a regular operation buffer area, an emergency priority buffer area, and a standby buffer area, and classify the buffer area according to whether it has a locking station attribute, including a composite buffer area and a general buffer area;
[0057] The dynamic start-stop and capacity adjustment collect and continuously monitor the occupation of the activated buffer area in real time through the FMS system to dynamically optimize the buffer area;
[0058] The buffer state and front-end display management display the state and classification of the buffer area on the interface of the FMS system; the state of the buffer area includes closed, available, reserved, occupied, and locked station occupied, and is distinguished by the color of the interface of the FMS system; the classification of the buffer area is distinguished by the thickness of the border of the interface of the FMS system;
[0059] The vehicle path planning calculates the shortest driving path of the vehicle from the specified operation berth to the reserved buffer area and the target operation point in real time by using a path planning algorithm according to the occupation of the buffer area.
[0060] In this embodiment, the data collection and initialization, buffer function division and attribute classification, dynamic start-stop and capacity adjustment, buffer state and front-end display management, and vehicle path planning in the above method steps are analyzed in detail as follows:
[0061] 1. Data collection and initialization
[0062] Data collection and initialization provides basic data for subsequent buffer association and vehicle path planning. The data source is wharf information, including: ship berthing information (including ship head coordinates and ship tail coordinates), real-time coordinates of shore cranes (QCs), online vehicle quantity (x), and wharf operation plan vehicle quantity. The online vehicle quantity and congestion information monitoring can be replaced by RFID sensors and camera intelligent recognition systems to monitor the vehicle data, parking times, and determine whether to block to improve data accuracy. Blocking is when a vehicle stops on a non-operation lane waiting to enter the buffer area. When the non-operation lane has a large flow, blocking should be avoided, and the FMS system is usually used for monitoring.
[0063] The embodiment initializes the configuration of the ship berthing according to the wharf information, including the following steps:
[0064] According to the initial operation information of the ship, the locking station area and the turning area are reserved on both sides of the bow and the stern;
[0065] The number of regular operation buffer zones is calculated according to the proportional relationship between the number of online vehicles x and the number of regular operation buffer zones and the number of online vehicles, and the corresponding number of regular operation buffer zones is activated according to the calculation result;
[0066] A plurality of emergency priority buffer zones and a plurality of standby buffer zones are activated by default on both sides of the bow and the stern.
[0067] In this embodiment, the locking station area and the turning area are calculated by the bow and stern coordinates. Specifically, the width of the entire area is configurable and has a default value. The turning area is located 14 m (default configuration) on both sides of the bow and the stern, and the locking station area is located outside the turning area at both ends of the bow and the stern, and has a default length of 30 m.
[0068] In addition, in the initialization configuration process described above, the ratio relationship satisfied by the number of regular operation buffer zones y and the number of online vehicles x is 2:1, that is, y=x / 2. If the calculation result is not an integer, it is rounded up.
[0069] 2. Buffer zone function division and attribute classification
[0070] The buffer zone function division and attribute classification meet different priority and operation requirements, and improve the use efficiency of the buffer zone.
[0071] In this embodiment, in the buffer zone attribute classification process, the buffer zones are classified according to whether they have locking station attributes, including composite buffer zones and general buffer zones. The locking station attribute is judged and given by the FMS system. The buffer zone with single-sided locking station or double-sided locking station is a composite buffer zone, which can be used for the area involved in the locking station operation in the vehicle up and down. The buffer zone without locking station is a general buffer zone, which only provides vehicle waiting and passing function. The buffer zone function division is divided according to its function, including emergency priority buffer zone, regular operation buffer zone, standby buffer zone.
[0072] Emergency priority buffer zone: used for quick response of emergency or temporary loading and unloading task vehicles, initially activated 3 units, generally distributed near the end of the buffer zone close to the bow and the stern, for easy access;
[0073] Regular operation buffer zone: provides waiting and passing space for general priority operation vehicles, starting from the emergency priority area of the bow and the stern, gradually extending to the middle of the buffer zone;
[0074] Standby buffer: provide waiting space for low-priority vehicles that are not involved in work, initially activate 3 units, generally distributed in the buffer far away from the bow and stern of the ship.
[0075] 3. Dynamic start-stop and capacity adjustment
[0076] Dynamic start-stop and capacity adjustment dynamically adjust the number of buffers according to actual demand, improve the flexibility and efficiency of terminal operation.
[0077] In this embodiment, when the work is in progress, the dynamic optimization of the buffer is carried out according to the occupation situation of the activated buffer, including the following steps:
[0078] The threshold upper limit and the threshold lower limit are set based on the occupation situation of the buffer, and the occupation rate expression is:
[0079] Occupancy rate = number of occupied buffers / number of activated regular work buffers;
[0080] If the occupancy rate exceeds the set threshold upper limit within the preset time period, the number of regular work buffers is increased;
[0081] If the occupancy rate is lower than the set threshold lower limit within the preset time period, the number of regular work buffers is closed;
[0082] For the buffer that cannot pass through due to the obstruction of the leg of the quay crane (QC), the projection calculation is carried out according to the real-time coordinates of the accessed quay crane, and the obstructed buffer is identified and closed. Generally, the FMS system interfaces with the TOS system of the upstream port, and the TOS issues the coordinate foot point corresponding to the QC, and projects the two foot point coordinates of the QC to the buffer. The overlapping part is the obstructed area and cannot be used.
[0083] It should be noted that the occupancy rate threshold of the buffer and the preset time can be adaptively adjusted according to the seasonal, ship type or work load characteristics. Specifically, in this embodiment, the preset time is usually set to 10 minutes; the threshold upper limit is set to 80%, and the threshold lower limit is set to 50%. The threshold upper and lower limits are usually empirical values based on the principle of optimal overall space utilization; the number of newly added or closed buffers is adjusted according to actual demand. In this embodiment, 3 newly added or closed buffers are set, the number of newly added regular work buffers is increased to improve the turnover capacity, and the number of closed regular work buffers is reduced to reduce resource waste.
[0084] 4. Buffer state and front-end display management
[0085] Buffer state and front-end display management facilitate operators to understand the use of the buffer in real time, and to intervene and optimize manually.
[0086] The buffer status includes, but is not limited to, off, available, reserved, occupied and occupied by a lock station. Generally, the interface of the FMS system is gray in the off state, indicating that it is unavailable; the available state is blue in the on state, indicating that there is no vehicle, no reservation and it can be directly used; the reserved state is yellow, indicating that it is empty but has been allocated to a specific vehicle; the occupied state is red, indicating that a vehicle entity is parked; and the occupied by a lock station state is purple, indicating that the related operation occupies the buffer. The composite buffer of the buffer classification is represented by a thick border, and the general buffer is represented by a thin border. The state can be changed by manual operation, and the specific adjustment logic can be automatically optimized based on the manual operation.
[0087] 5. Vehicle path planning
[0088] The vehicle path planning optimizes the driving path of the vehicle, reduces the waiting time and driving distance, and improves the overall efficiency of the terminal operation.
[0089] In this embodiment, the FMS system uses a path planning algorithm to calculate the shortest driving path of the vehicle from the specified operation berth to the reserved buffer and the target operation point in real time on the basis of dynamically managing the buffer.
[0090] Specifically, in this embodiment, the path planning algorithm calculates the driving path of the vehicle in real time, which uses any path planning algorithm in the prior art and is not limited to one. In the process of planning the path, the traditional A* algorithm is used for calculation, and the specific calculation process is as follows: the starting point is set as the current position of the vehicle, the end point is determined as the pre-given target end point, and when searching for the path, all available buffers need to be fully and systematically traversed for the selection of the passing points, and the shortest path is selected as the optimal path by comparing the total lengths of different path schemes.
[0091] The priority strategy in the process of vehicle path planning is that the composite buffer path is preferentially selected for the vehicle of the disassembly and assembly lock station operation, and the general buffer path is preferentially selected for the vehicle of the ordinary operation. Specifically, in the task attribute of the vehicle, there are tasks that need to pass through the lock station and tasks that do not need to pass through the lock station, so the composite buffer path and the general buffer path are set as described above, and the path passing points need to select the composite buffer when the task that needs to pass through the lock station is executed, and both of them can be selected when the task that does not need to pass through the lock station is executed.
[0092] The above content provides a technical scheme from data acquisition, initial configuration, dynamic capacity adjustment, state identification to path optimization, and realizes the fine and dynamic management of the buffer area on the terminal surface through the real-time monitoring and automatic decision of the FMS system.
[0093] Through the above embodiment, the dynamic management and control method of the application is disclosed, and the method of the application has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0095] 2.

[0096] 3. The application is aimed at the traffic obstruction caused by the solid area of the shore bridge, and the buffer is identified and closed by projecting calculation through the real-time coordinates of the shore bridge, to avoid the vehicle from entering the area that cannot pass, reduce the time waste and improve the traffic efficiency and safety;
[0097] 4. The application displays the buffer state in real time through the front-end interface, and supports the mechanism that manual operation priority is higher than system automatic adjustment, to enhance the practicability;
[0098] 5. The application increases path planning optimization, differentiates path planning and dynamic adjustment for different types of operation vehicles, reduces vehicle waiting and driving time, and improves the overall operation efficiency of the terminal.

[0101] The buffer function division and attribute classification module divides the buffer into regular operation buffer, emergency priority buffer and standby buffer, and classifies it into composite buffer and general buffer according to whether the buffer has the locking station attribute;
[0102] The dynamic start-stop and capacity adjustment strategy module collects and monitors the occupation of the activated buffer in real time through the FMS system, dynamically optimizes based on the set occupation threshold, adds a new regular operation buffer when the occupation rate exceeds the upper threshold, and closes part of the buffer when the occupation rate is below the lower threshold, and identifies and closes the buffer that cannot pass due to the obstruction of the bridge leg.
