[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of vehicle control, and in particular to a vehicle chassis global control method, device, electronic equipment and storage medium. Background Art

[0002] The current mainstream vehicle chassis control systems have the following key problems: Significant control conflicts: Each subsystem (suspension control subsystem, steering control subsystem, and braking control subsystem) makes independent decisions, which can easily lead to conflicting actions. For example, during braking, suspension adjustments may exacerbate vehicle pitch. Insufficient scenario adaptability: The fixed reward function makes it impossible to dynamically adjust the optimization objective, making it difficult to adaptively switch between emergency obstacle avoidance (safety first) and comfortable cruising (smoothness first). Low utilization of preview information: Traditional solutions fail to fully integrate preview data from cameras, lidar, V2X, and other technologies, causing control responses to lag behind actual road conditions. Algorithm application limitations: The traditional DQN algorithm only supports discrete action spaces and has difficulty in accurately controlling continuous variables such as the braking force distribution ratio.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of the present invention in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] The traditional vehicle chassis global control process has significant control conflicts, insufficient scene adaptability, low preview information utilization, and limited algorithm application.

[0020] Based on this, in the vehicle chassis global control method of the present invention, the reward functions of the first intelligent agent and the second intelligent agent adopt dynamic weights, which can improve the adaptive switching ability of the control strategy under complex working conditions. After obtaining the continuous-discrete mixed action signal, the continuous-discrete mixed action signal will be optimized and adjusted based on the system risk level, thereby eliminating the dynamic response conflict of the chassis multi-subsystem (suspension, steering, braking) control and realizing collaborative optimization. In addition, the above process fully considers the road condition information in front of the vehicle, which can reduce decision-making delay and improve the real-time response of the system response. Ultimately, precise control of the continuous-discrete mixed action space can be achieved, and the algorithm is not restricted.

[0021] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, a vehicle chassis global control method disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention is first introduced in detail.

[0022] Example 1: According to an embodiment of the present invention, an embodiment of a vehicle chassis global control method is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in an order different from that shown here.

[0023] Figure 1 is a flow chart of a vehicle chassis global control method according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps: Step S102, obtaining road condition information ahead of the vehicle, and processing vehicle sensor data through the first agent to obtain vehicle state parameters; In an embodiment of the present invention, the method is a vehicle chassis global control method based on multi-agent collaborative deep reinforcement learning. It adopts a multi-agent collaborative control framework to solve the dynamic response conflict problem of collaborative control of subsystems such as suspension, steering, and braking, and realizes adaptive optimization control of the chassis system under complex working conditions.

[0024] The above-mentioned road condition information in front of the vehicle is based on preview data and is used to generate continuous-discrete hybrid action signals, which can reduce decision-making delays and improve the real-time response of the system.

[0025] Specifically, the first agent uses an RNN network and vehicle dynamics equations to online identify key vehicle state parameters such as tire cornering stiffness and road adhesion coefficient. During implementation, the system is initialized and parameter configuration is completed through the following steps: The first agent uses a two-layer LSTM network (with 128 and 64 hidden layer neurons, respectively) to construct an RNN model. It inputs real-time signals from wheel speed sensors, steering wheel angle sensors, and body acceleration sensors (sampling frequency 100Hz). It is pre-trained on 100,000 sets of simulation data generated by the vehicle's magic formula dynamics model to achieve online identification of tire cornering stiffness and road adhesion coefficient, with an identification error of ≤5%. The communication layer protocol defines the second agent's action priority signal as a three-level code (EMERGENCY=3, WARNING=2, NORMAL=1), and transmits conflict arbitration instructions via the CAN bus (baud rate 500kbps).

[0026] Step S104: The second agent generates a continuous-discrete hybrid action signal based on the road condition information ahead and the vehicle state parameters, wherein the reward functions of the first agent and the second agent use dynamic weights; Step S106 , evaluating the system risk level according to the vehicle dynamic response parameters, optimizing and adjusting the continuous-discrete hybrid action signal based on the system risk level, and then outputting the optimized continuous-discrete hybrid action signal to the vehicle chassis execution system.

[0027] Specifically, this process can be completed by the conflict arbitration module. The agents (i.e., the second agent) exchange action priorities in real time through the communication layer (i.e., realize the interaction of action priority signals between agents). The conflict arbitration module uses fuzzy logic (i.e., fuzzy rules) to evaluate the system risk level. For example: def risk_evaluation(roll_angle, brake_pressure): if roll_angle>5° and brake_pressure>80MPa: return HIGH_RISK# Trigger steering and braking coordination priority strategy In emergency conditions (e.g., the braking priority (i.e., action priority) is "EMERGENCY"), the suspension control agent (i.e., one of the second agents) is only allowed to fine-tune the damping, and the height adjustment is frozen.

[0028] During implementation, after the communication layer collects the actions of each agent (the suspension control agent and the steering and braking coordination agent), the conflict arbitration module evaluates the system risk level according to the following fuzzy rules: Input variables: roll angle φ (membership function is trapezoidal, with a critical value of 5° corresponding to high risk), brake pressure P (Gaussian function, μ=80MPa, σ=5MPa); Output Decision: When the system risk level is HIGH, a "FREEZE_SUSPENSION" signal is sent to freeze suspension height adjustments, allowing only fine-tuning of the damping coefficient. The final action is transmitted to the actuator (i.e., the vehicle chassis actuation system) via the CAN bus. Braking ESP response delay is ≤30ms, and suspension solenoid valve action delay is ≤20ms.

[0029] The above process of optimizing and adjusting the continuous-discrete mixed action signal based on the system risk level can be adjusted by pre-set rules.

[0030] Figure 2 The reinforcement learning-DQN algorithm framework adopted by the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 3 The process implementation of the vehicle chassis global control method of the present invention is shown in FIG.

[0031] In an embodiment of the present invention, a method for global control of a vehicle chassis is provided, including: obtaining road condition information ahead of the vehicle, and processing vehicle sensor data through a first intelligent agent to obtain vehicle state parameters; a second intelligent agent generates a continuous-discrete hybrid action signal based on the road condition information ahead and the vehicle state parameters, wherein the reward functions of the first intelligent agent and the second intelligent agent adopt dynamic weights; evaluating the system risk level based on the vehicle dynamic response parameters, and optimizing and adjusting the continuous-discrete hybrid action signal based on the system risk level, and then outputting the optimized continuous-discrete hybrid action signal to the vehicle chassis execution system. From the above description, it can be seen that in the vehicle chassis full-domain control method of the present invention, the reward function of the first intelligent agent and the second intelligent agent adopts dynamic weights, which can improve the adaptive switching ability of the control strategy under complex working conditions. After obtaining the continuous-discrete mixed action signal, the continuous-discrete mixed action signal will be optimized and adjusted based on the system risk level, thereby eliminating the dynamic response conflict of the chassis multi-subsystem (suspension, steering, braking) control and realizing collaborative optimization. In addition, the above process fully considers the road condition information in front of the vehicle, which can reduce decision-making delay and improve the real-time response of the system response. Ultimately, precise control of the continuous-discrete mixed action space can be achieved, and the algorithm is not restricted, alleviating the technical problems of the traditional vehicle chassis full-domain control process such as significant control conflict, insufficient scene adaptability, low utilization of preview information and limited algorithm application.

[0032] The above content briefly introduces the vehicle chassis global control method of the present invention. The specific contents involved are described in detail below.

[0033] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, obtaining road condition information ahead of the vehicle specifically includes the following steps: (1) Obtaining raw data of the road ahead through on-board sensing equipment and vehicle network communication equipment; Specifically, the on-board sensing equipment includes: LiDAR, LiDAR (scanning frequency 10Hz, ranging range 200m), which collects raw data of the road ahead, and V2X equipment (i.e., vehicle-to-vehicle communication equipment with communication delay ≤5ms), which also collects raw data of the road ahead.

[0034] (2) The raw data of the road ahead from different data sources are fused and processed to obtain the road condition information ahead of the vehicle, including the curvature radius of the preset distance ahead and the location information of the obstacles ahead.

[0035] Specifically, the raw data of the road ahead collected by the lidar and the raw data of the road ahead collected by the vehicle network communication equipment are fused through the Kalman filter (state transfer matrix F=1, observation matrix H=1, that is, the Kalman filter algorithm) to generate the curvature radius R of the 50m path ahead (that is, the curvature radius of the preset distance ahead) and the position information (x, y) of the obstacle ahead, and input them into the steering and braking collaborative intelligent agent.

[0036] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the first intelligent agent is a parameter observer based on a recursive neural network, and the vehicle state parameters include at least: tire cornering stiffness and road adhesion coefficient.

[0037] Specifically, the vehicle sensor data includes wheel speed sensor data, steering wheel angle sensor data, and vehicle body acceleration sensor data. The vehicle sensor data is input into the first intelligent agent, and the tire cornering stiffness and road adhesion coefficient are output.

[0038] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the second agent includes: a suspension control agent and a steering and braking coordination agent; the suspension control agent and the steering and braking coordination agent are both implemented using a deep reinforcement learning framework, and their network structures include a continuous action output module and a discrete action output module; A suspension control agent that outputs continuous damping coefficients and discrete suspension heights; The steering and braking collaborative intelligent agent is used to output the continuous braking force distribution ratio and discrete target angle compensation.

[0039] Specifically, the suspension control agent outputs the continuous damping coefficient and discrete suspension height based on the vehicle body acceleration sensor data and the road adhesion coefficient; The suspension control agent receives the vertical acceleration signal of the vehicle body (range ±5g, accuracy 0.01g), and outputs the continuous damping coefficient δ (value range 0-1, corresponding to the solenoid valve current 0-2A) and discrete suspension height instructions ("raise", "standard", "lower") through the improved DQN algorithm (i.e., NAF-DQN algorithm). Among them, the DQN network structure (i.e., the network structure of the suspension control agent) is: input layer (state dimension 12) → two fully connected hidden layers (256 neurons each, ReLU activation) → output layer (continuous values ​​are generated by the NAF module, and discrete values ​​are output through the Q value layer). The above-mentioned continuous damping coefficient and discrete suspension height are the action signals. The steering and braking collaborative agent outputs the continuous braking force distribution ratio and discrete target steering angle compensation based on the curvature radius, obstacle coordinates, tire cornering stiffness and road adhesion coefficient.

[0040] Specifically, the discrete target steering angle compensation Δθ (discrete value, 5° step size, range -15° to +15°) is calculated based on the curvature radius R, and the continuous braking force distribution ratio α (continuous value, front wheel distribution coefficient 0.6-0.8) is generated through the NAF-DQN algorithm. The advantage function formula of the NAF network (i.e., NAF module) is: A(s,a;θ)=Q(s,a;θ)-V(s;θ) , where state s includes: preview road condition, vehicle speed, vehicle roll angle, action a is α, θ represents the weight of the network, and the value function V(s;θ) Generated by the target network.

[0041] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the network structure of the second intelligent agent includes: an input layer, two fully connected hidden layers and an output layer, the output layer includes: a NAF module and a Q-value layer, the NAF module (i.e., a continuous action output module) is used to generate continuous values, and the Q-value layer (discrete action output module) is used to generate discrete values.

[0042] The above-mentioned second intelligent agent includes: a suspension control intelligent agent and a steering and braking coordination intelligent agent, and the structures of both are: an input layer, two fully connected hidden layers and an output layer.

[0043] Specifically, continuous actions (such as the braking force distribution ratio) use the NAF-DQN architecture (using the Normalized Advantage Function (NAF) to improve the DQN algorithm). The network output layer uses the tanh activation function to map α to the interval [0.1, 0.9], corresponding to the front wheel braking force ratio. The loss function is: L(θ)=E s,a,r,s′ [(r+γV(s′)-Q(s,a;θ)) 2 ] , where the discount factor γ = 0.99, the target network parameters are soft-updated every 100 steps (τ = 0.001), and the braking force distribution error after training is ≤ ±2%. Discrete actions (such as suspension mode switching) retain the Q-value output layer of the traditional DQN module, which contains three neurons (corresponding to three height modes). Actions are selected using an ε-greedy strategy (ε initialized to 0.1 and decayed by 0.001 every 1000 steps). The measured mode switching accuracy reaches 99.2%. This process achieves "continuous + discrete" hybrid control.

[0044] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the reward function includes: ,in, Represents the reward value, 、 、 represents the dynamic weight, represents the roll angle penalty function, represents the vertical displacement smoothness function, represents the braking time optimization function.

[0045] Specifically, represents the roll angle penalty function, when >5°, output -10, otherwise, output ; represents the vertical displacement smoothness function, is the rate of change of the vertical displacement of the vehicle body, and the output is (Threshold 0.5m / s); represents the braking time optimization function, and the output is (The target braking time is 0.8s).

[0046] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, when the vertical acceleration standard deviation σ_z<0.3g, ; When V2X receives the accident signal ahead, ; Specifically, when the vertical acceleration standard deviation σ_z < 0.3g, it is the comfort mode. , ,, , the vehicle body smoothness optimization has the highest priority, which can reduce the vibration acceleration perceived by passengers by 30%; when V2X receives the accident signal ahead, it will enter the accident section warning mode, , , , triggering the brake pre-fill function, which shortens the emergency braking response time by 40ms.

[0047] The above dynamic weights can also be generated through the self-attention mechanism.

[0048] Specifically, a Transformer architecture (6 encoder layers and 8 attention heads) is introduced. LiDAR point cloud features (dimension 512) and driving intention features (accelerator pedal travel, steering wheel angle) are used as query vectors, and dynamic weights are generated through the self-attention mechanism. The attention calculation formula is:

[0049] in, Q is the working condition feature query vector, K 、 V is a key-value pair matrix, d k is the key vector dimension (64).

[0050] Advantages: No need to preset weight rules, can autonomously learn emergency obstacle avoidance ( Improved to 0.7), comfortable cruise ( Increased to 0.7) and other scenarios’ weight distribution; Disadvantages: Requires 100,000 sets of labeled working condition data for training, 15M model parameters, and requires support from an on-board edge computing platform (computing power ≥ 10TOPS).

[0051] In addition, the first agent, suspension control agent, and steering and braking coordination agent can be integrated into the Huawei MDC610 central controller, exchanging data via 10Gbps Ethernet, replacing the distributed ECU architecture. Hardware interface definition: LiDAR interface: 10Gbps Ethernet; Actuator interface: CAN FD.

[0052] Advantages: Hardware costs are reduced by 20% (reducing 3 ECUs), and algorithm upgrade cycles are shortened from 3 months to 1 week; Disadvantages: Requires ASIL-D functional safety certification, and central controller redundancy design increases costs by 15%.

[0053] The method of the present invention can eliminate dynamic response conflicts in the control of multiple chassis subsystems (suspension, steering, and braking) to achieve collaborative optimization; design a dynamic weight mechanism to improve the adaptive switching capability of control strategies under complex working conditions; integrate preview information (i.e., the curvature radius at a preset distance ahead and the coordinates of the obstacle ahead) to reduce decision-making delays and improve the real-time response of the system; and expand the deep reinforcement learning algorithm (by adding the NAF module) to achieve precise control of the continuous-discrete hybrid action space.

[0054] The method of the present invention has the following advantages: (1) Improved collaborative control efficiency: In emergency obstacle avoidance scenarios, the conflict arbitration mechanism reduces the roll angle from 8° to 4.8°, a 40% reduction in roll angle, and shortens the braking distance from 32.5m to 31.6m, a 2.8% reduction in braking distance. (2) Dynamic response speed optimization: When switching working conditions (such as from comfortable cruising to emergency braking), dynamic weight adjustment makes the response time less than 100ms, which is 80% faster than the fixed weight scheme; (3) Breakthrough in the utilization of preview information: After integrating LiDAR and V2X data, decision-making delay is reduced from 50ms to 10ms, achieving real-time response from "road condition change to decision output"; (4) Control accuracy is significantly improved: the continuous action control error is reduced to ±0.15m (braking distance), and the discrete action switching accuracy reaches 99.2%.

[0055] Example 2: An embodiment of the present invention also provides a vehicle chassis global control device, which is mainly used to execute the vehicle chassis global control method provided in Example 1 of the present invention.
