Abstract
Description
Technology Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a technology aimed at recommending an optimized driving map (guidance) through the fusion, analysis, and judgment of dynamic situation awareness information via sensor detection and cooperative perception in traffic situations where general vehicles (Non-CAV) and pedestrians or bicycles (VRU) are mixed. Background Technology
[0002] Technologies for optimizing traffic networks are focused on providing various information to Connected Users (including general vehicles and pedestrians), including Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs). Existing technologies have been limited to providing information necessary for autonomous vehicles via Road-Side Units (RSUs) or simply conveying traffic conditions to drivers.
[0003] However, in environments where autonomous vehicles, non-autonomous vehicles (Non-CAVs), pedestrians, and bicycles coexist, there is a lack of technology to analyze conflict risks between various entities and provide real-time driving maps to all users. Furthermore, the absence of methods for service participation and data integration targeting non-autonomous vehicles and pedestrians using nomadic devices (smartphones, tablets, etc.) has limited the optimization of traffic networks.
[0004] In conventional technology, the RSU collects vehicle location and driving intention information of autonomous vehicles to provide driving maps (guidance) to surrounding vehicles for traffic optimization; however, there is no method for collecting location and driving intention information of non-CAV vehicles, nor is there a method to provide driving maps (guidance) to non-CAV vehicles or nomadic devices.
[0005] In order to provide driving guidance services for non-CAV vehicles, information collection and processing technologies for non-CAV vehicles, as well as information provision technologies, are required. Conventional C-ITS technology provides drivers with information on traffic conditions and road hazards, leaving the decision-making to the driver. This results in limitations in optimizing the entire traffic system and can lead to negative effects due to the maximization of individual benefits; therefore, a method for providing guidance to optimize the traffic network system is needed to overcome these limitations. Prior art literature
[0006] Korean Registered Patent No. 10-2556445 (July 12, 2023) Korean Registered Patent No. 10-2631777 (February 1, 2024) Korean Registered Patent No. 10-2638064 (February 14, 2024) Korean Registered Patent No. 10-2721015 (October 18, 2024) The problem to be solved
[0007] The present invention provides a driving map provision service, previously available only to autonomous vehicles (CAVs), to all traffic objects including drivers of non-autonomous vehicles (Non-CAVs) equipped with a Nomadic Device, as well as pedestrians and bicycles (VRUs). It utilizes the Nomadic Device to accurately collect and process the location and driving intent of non-autonomous vehicles, generates an optimal driving map based on real-time conflict risk information in complex traffic situations such as intersections and merging points, and secures technology capable of updating or canceling the driving map to flexibly respond to changes in traffic conditions. Furthermore, it visually provides driving information on the Nomadic Device screen in a user-friendly manner, enabling non-autonomous vehicles (Non-CAVs), pedestrians, and bicycles to access necessary information or utilize traffic conditions through a Road-Side Unit (RSU).
[0008] The problems solved by the present invention are not limited to those mentioned above, and other problems not mentioned will be clearly understood by those skilled in the art from the description below. means of solving the problem
[0009] According to an embodiment of the present invention as a means to solve the aforementioned technical problem, a method for providing a driving map to a nomadic device comprises: a step in which a Road-Side Unit (RSU) requests a user of the nomadic device to participate in a service; a step in which the nomadic device transmits its own vehicle location and user ID identification number to the RSU, and the RSU assigns a temporary identifier to the nomadic device; and a step in which the nomadic device participates in the driving map service as a Host Object (HO) using the assigned temporary identifier.
[0010] Additionally, the method further includes the step of the service target (Host Object, HO) transmitting its own vehicle location and driving intention to the RSU; the step of the RSU transmitting a driving map to the service target (Host Object, HO) participating in the driving map service; the step of the service target (Host Object, HO) continuously transmitting response information regarding the start of the driving map mission and information regarding the own vehicle location and driving intention during the driving map execution; and the step of the service target (Host Object, HO) transmitting response information regarding the completion of the driving map mission.
[0011] The system comprises: a Road-Side Unit (RSU) device that identifies road conditions, communicates with the autonomous vehicle and the nomadic device to exchange vehicle-road information, and performs driving maps; an autonomous vehicle that identifies driving conditions and controls the vehicle without driver intervention, and receives driving maps by communicating with the RSU; and a nomadic device that includes an On-Board Unit (OBU) capable of communicating with the RSU device or includes a module capable of communicating with the OBU. The RSU includes a V2X RSU and a local dynamic map, and the nomadic device includes a V2X Library. Effects of the invention
[0012] The present invention improves traffic safety by reducing accident risk through real-time analysis of conflict risks at intersections, merging points, etc., and increases traffic efficiency by maintaining smooth traffic flow even in environments where autonomous vehicles, non-autonomous vehicles, and pedestrians are mixed. Furthermore, the driving map service can expand the scope of service to include non-autonomous vehicles and pedestrians by utilizing nomadic devices such as smartphones and tablets.
[0013] In addition, by providing driving maps in an intuitive and easy-to-understand manner, user satisfaction can be improved, and by enabling a user experience with driving maps in autonomous driving, it can also contribute to the expansion of autonomous driving services.

Specific details for implementing the invention
[0015] Further objects, features, and advantages of the present invention can be more clearly understood from the following detailed description and the accompanying drawings.
[0016] Before providing a detailed description of the present invention, it should be understood that the present invention is capable of various modifications and may have various embodiments, and that the examples described below and illustrated in the drawings are not intended to limit the present invention to specific embodiments, but include all modifications, equivalents, and substitutions that fall within the spirit and scope of the present invention.
[0017] This invention aims to provide driving maps for 'Connected Users' (including ordinary vehicles, pedestrians, bicycles, motorized vehicles, motorcycles, PMs: Personal Mobility, VRUs, Segways, electric scooters, strollers, wheelchairs, animal propulsion systems, etc.) who use nomadic devices such as smartphone navigation systems and tablet PCs. Through this invention, a Connected User transmits their location and driving intention to an RSU, and based on this, the RSU enables the provision of driving maps (guidance) to both CAV vehicles and Connected Users. Through this invention, guidance that optimizes traffic conditions can be provided in traffic situations where CAV vehicles and Connected Users are mixed.
[0018] In the following description, the target of the driving map (guidance) service (Host Object, HO) is a Connected User capable of communicating with the RSU through a Nomadic Device. The present invention can provide various driving missions (deceleration, acceleration, constant speed, temporary stop, passing a specific point by a specific point in time, passing a specific point after a specific point in time, etc.) to the HO.
[0019] In the prior art, a vehicle that receives a request to participate in a service transmits its own vehicle location information to the RSU corresponding to the I2X service provider RSU identifier. Considering that GPS positioning errors occur when the Nomadic Device utilized in the present invention is not equipped with high-precision positioning equipment such as GNSS, the HO transmits location information to the RSU that includes the approaching intersection, the direction of approach, and the distance to the intersection. That is, when the HO receives a request to participate in a service from the RSU, it transmits the HO's own vehicle location and Nomadic Device user ID identification information to the RSU. In the present invention, the RSU verifies whether the HO's location is within the RSU service area, and if the HO is driving within the service area, it assigns a temporary identifier to the HO vehicle based on the received Nomadic Device user ID identification information. At this time, the HO notifies the RSU of its intention to participate in the service using the assigned temporary identifier.
[0020] This process can be understood as follows: a step in which the HO and the RSU decide to provide services; an information collection step in which the HO's location, traffic speed, and driving intention (e.g., intention to pass through an intersection) are transmitted to the RSU via the Nomadic Device, and the RSU integrates surrounding RO vehicle information to analyze conflict risks; a step in which a driving map is generated including data such as recommended driving speed, trajectory information, and time to pass a specific point, and is displayed on the Nomadic Device screen in an easy-to-understand manner; and an update and cancellation step in which the RSU provides a new driving map or cancels the existing map when traffic conditions change.
[0021] The main technical elements of the present invention include a technology that provides a driving map (guidance) to Connected Users, such as Non-Autonomous Vehicles (Non-CAV) and pedestrians, by utilizing Nomadic Devices such as smartphones and tablets, and collects data such as traffic speed and intention to pass through intersections from Nomadic Devices in addition to GPS information, processes it with an RSU, and provides the driving map to an HO that generates and provides information such as recommended driving speed, route, and time of passing through specific points based on the data collected by the RSU; a technology that performs a conflict risk analysis based on data collected by the RSU from Nomadic Device users and autonomous vehicles (CAVs), calculates the conflict risk between vehicles and pedestrians at intersections, roundabouts, and merging points according to the situation, and generates a driving map including recommended driving speed, lane change, and time of passing through specific points to reduce the conflict risk based on this, and an interface technology that provides information visualization and voice guidance in a manner easy for the user to understand by intuitively displaying the current driving speed, recommended driving speed, remaining distance and time to the mission point to Nomadic Device users.
[0022] In addition, when calculating the conflict between objects, for example, when analyzing the risk of an RSU conflicting with other objects such as HO, other autonomous vehicles, or pedestrians at an intersection or merging point, it can be calculated by utilizing SSM indicators such as TTC (Time to Collision) and PET (Post Encroachment Time) based on the estimated driving trajectory of each traffic object.
[0023] Hereinafter, specific technical details to be implemented in the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings.
[0024] FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram of a driving map service for a nomadic type device. It indicates that the nomadic type device may have a structure including a V2X OBU (On-Board Unit) within the device, or may provide the service even if it is equipped only with a communication modem without including the OBU.
[0025] Figure 2 illustrates a protocol for the procedure of a service recipient (Host Object, HO) participating in a service in the prior art.
[0026] FIG. 3 illustrates a protocol for a nomadic device to participate in a service according to the present invention. Here, the process involves the RSU requesting the nomadic device to participate in the service, and the transmission of the user's ID identification number to the RSU is a part that differs from the prior art. Specifically, when the RSU requests the nomadic device to participate in the service, the nomadic device transmits its vehicle location and user ID identification number to the RSU, the RSU assigns a temporary identifier to the nomadic device, and the nomadic device proceeds to the step of participating in the service using the assigned temporary identifier.
[0027] Figure 4 illustrates the protocol in the process where a nomadic device requests a driving map from an RSU. The nomadic device transmits its vehicle location and driving intention to the RSU, and the RSU transmits guidance to the nomadic device. The vehicle location and driving intention are continuously transmitted to the RSU at the start and during the execution of the guidance mission, and the service is terminated by responding that the mission is completed when the guidance mission is finished.
[0028] Figure 5 is an example of displaying a driving speed recommendation within a driving map (guidance) section. Mission point information regarding the recommendation to pass a specific point (passing before t seconds, passing after t seconds) can be provided to a Connected User using a nomadic device, along with information such as the recommended driving speed, distance to the mission point, and remaining time to pass.
[0029] Figure 6 is an example of displaying the current recommended speed, remaining distance to the mission point, and remaining time to a user of a nomadic device. Mission point information regarding lane changes can provide lane change recommendation section information and lane change direction information to a connected user using a nomadic device, as shown in Figure 6.
[0030] Figure 7 illustrates a case where a user of a nomadic device enters a roundabout alone. It involves identifying the absence of a moving object in the roundabout via the RSU and providing a driving map so that the nomadic device can enter the roundabout immediately.
[0031] To explain this in detail, the process consists of the following steps: a step of entering a driving map (guidance) service section and participating in the service at a vehicle roundabout; a step in which the HO vehicle transmits its own vehicle location and intention to enter the roundabout to the RSU; a step in which the RSU confirms the absence of vehicles in the roundabout; a step in which the vehicle transmits a driving map (guidance) for entering the roundabout to the vehicle; and a step in which the vehicle enters the roundabout while repeatedly transmitting its location, intention to enter the roundabout, etc., to the RSU.
[0032] Figure 8 is a use case in which a user of a nomadic type device enters a roundabout first, where an HO vehicle and an RO vehicle each enter the roundabout, and if it is determined that the risk of collision with the vehicle rotating through the RSU is very low, a driving map (guidance) for the HO vehicle to enter first is provided.
[0033] To explain this in detail, the method comprises the following steps: a step of the vehicle entering the roundabout driving map (guidance) service section and participating in the service; a step in which the HO vehicle transmits its own vehicle location and intention to enter the roundabout to the RSU; a step in which the RSU calculates the time until the HO vehicle approaches the roundabout by collecting information on the distance from the vehicle to the roundabout and traffic speed; a step in which, if the risk of conflict is low, the RSU transmits the roundabout entry driving map (guidance) to the HO vehicle; and a step of repeatedly transmitting the location and intention to pass through the intersection to the RSU.
[0034] FIG. 9 is a use case in which a user of a nomadic type device makes a left turn at a non-signaled intersection alone, and an HO vehicle enters the non-signaled intersection alone. It is a case in which the RSU identifies the absence of a moving object at the roundabout and provides a driving map (guidance) so that the HO can enter the non-signaled intersection immediately.
[0035] To explain this in detail, it consists of the following steps: entering a service section for a vehicle non-signaled intersection driving map (guidance) and participating in the service; the HO vehicle transmitting its own vehicle location and intention to turn left at the non-signaled intersection to the RSU; the RSU confirming the absence of approaching vehicles; the RSU transmitting a left-turn driving map (guidance) to the HO vehicle; and the vehicle turning left at the non-signaled intersection while repeatedly transmitting its location and intention to turn left at the non-signaled intersection to the RSU.
[0036] Figure 10 is a use case in which a user of a nomadic type device makes a priority left turn at an unsignalized intersection, and an HO vehicle and an RO vehicle each enter the unsignalized intersection. In this case, if the risk of collision with the RO vehicle is analyzed through the RSU and it is determined that the risk of collision is very low, a priority entry driving map (guidance) for the HO vehicle is provided.
[0037] To explain this in detail, the method comprises the following steps: entering a service section for a vehicle non-signaled intersection driving map (guidance) and participating in the service; the vehicle transmitting its location and intention to turn left at the non-signaled intersection to the RSU; the RSU calculating the estimated time required for the HO vehicle to approach the non-signaled intersection by collecting information on the distance and traffic speed from the vehicle to the non-signaled intersection; if the risk of conflict is low, the RSU transmitting a left-turn driving map (guidance) to the HO vehicle; and the vehicle turning left at the non-signaled intersection while repeatedly transmitting its location and intention to turn left at the non-signaled intersection to the RSU.
[0038] Figure 11 shows a case where a user of a nomadic type device makes an unprotected left turn. It is a use case where an HO vehicle and an RO vehicle each enter a signalized intersection, and the RSU provides an unprotected left turn driving map (guidance) through an analysis of the risk of conflict between vehicles.
[0039] To explain this in detail, it consists of the following steps: a step in which the HO vehicle enters the service section of the signal intersection driving map (guidance) and participates in the service; a step in which the HO vehicle transmits its own vehicle location and intention to make an unprotected left turn at the signal intersection to the RSU; a step in which the RSU calculates the time until the HO vehicle approaches the signal intersection by collecting information on the distance and traffic speed from the HO vehicle to the signal intersection; a step in which, if the risk of conflict is low, the RSU transmits the unprotected left turn driving map (guidance) to the HO vehicle; a step in which the recommended driving speed, remaining time for driving map (guidance) execution, and remaining distance are displayed by considering the distance from the HO vehicle's location to the expected conflict point; and a step in which the HO vehicle performs an unprotected left turn at the signal intersection while repeatedly transmitting its location and intention to make an unprotected left turn at the signal intersection to the RSU.
[0040] Figure 12 shows a case where a user of a nomadic type device makes an unprotected left turn between oncoming vehicles. This is a use case where two vehicles, an HO vehicle and an RO vehicle, enter a signalized intersection, and the RSU analyzes the risk of conflict between the vehicles to allow one RO vehicle to pass first, and then provides unprotected left turn guidance to the HO vehicle.
[0041] To explain this in detail, it consists of the following steps: a step in which the HO vehicle enters the service section of the signal intersection driving map (guidance) and participates in the service; a step in which the HO vehicle transmits its own vehicle location and intention to make an unprotected left turn at the signal intersection to the RSU; a step in which the RSU recognizes the approaching vehicle (RO1) in the opposing lane and analyzes the conflict risk; a step in which the recommended driving speed, remaining time for driving map (guidance) execution, and remaining distance are displayed considering the distance from the HO vehicle's location to the expected conflict point; a step in which the opposing vehicle (RO1) passes; a step in which, if the conflict risk is low, the RSU transmits the unprotected left turn driving map (guidance) to the HO vehicle; a step in which the HO vehicle performs an unprotected left turn at the signal intersection while repeatedly transmitting its location and intention to make an unprotected left turn at the signal intersection to the RSU; and a step in which the opposing vehicle (RO2) passes.
[0042] Figure 13 shows a case where a user of a nomadic type device makes a right turn alone.

[0044] FIG. 14 is a use case in which a user of a nomadic type device yields the right of way at a signal intersection and then makes a right turn with an HO vehicle, where an HO vehicle and an RO vehicle each approach the signal intersection, and then provides a right turn driving guide (guidance) to the HO vehicle after yielding to the vehicle passing according to the signal through the RSU.
