Solution Overview

Problem

Existing automatic parking systems face inefficiencies due to the large capacity of operation data, which occupies significant communication resources and reduces the process efficiency, limiting the ability to expand other functions and increasing the calculation load on the system controller.

Innovation Solution

The proposed solution involves the mobile terminal converting user input data into a smaller capacity parking control instruction, which is then sent to the vehicle's automatic parking system controller, reducing communication data usage and calculation loads, while allowing for customizable user inputs and improved user experience.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the mobile terminal continuously sends operation data to the automatic parking system controller, then the driver's input can be processed in real-time, but communication data resources are occupied and processing efficiency is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereal-time processing of driver inputVSAvoidautomatic parking process efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the data processing function from the automatic parking system controller and relocates it to the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal now analyzes operation data locally and generates simplified control instructions, which are then sent to the vehicle controller. This extraction reduces the communication burden on the vehicle system while maintaining real-time responsiveness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The mobile terminal acts as an intermediary between the driver and the automatic parking system controller. Instead of the driver's raw operation data being continuously transmitted to the vehicle, the mobile terminal processes this data and generates condensed control instructions that convey the essential parking intent without the overhead of raw operational data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Measurement precision

If the automatic parking system controller receives and processes large capacity operation data, then accurate driver intention can be determined, but system resources are occupied and other functions are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedriver intention determination accuracyVSAvoidsystem function expansion capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the data analysis function from the automatic parking system controller and relocates it to the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal processes operation data locally to determine driver intention, then sends only the resulting control instructions to the vehicle controller. This extraction preserves intention determination accuracy while freeing up vehicle system resources for other functions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The mobile terminal creates a simplified copy of the operation data in the form of control instructions that capture the essential parking intent. Instead of transmitting the full operation data set, the system uses this condensed representation that maintains the necessary information for accurate intention determination while occupying minimal system resources.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

3Loss of information

If operation data with large capacity is transmitted through the communication channel, then complete user input information is available, but communication resources are consumed and efficiency is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser input information completenessVSAvoidcommunication resource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the information processing function from the communication channel and relocates it to the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal analyzes operation data locally and extracts only the essential control instructions needed for parking execution. This extraction maintains information completeness for parking control while dramatically reducing communication resource consumption.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The mobile terminal serves as an intermediary that transforms complete operation data into condensed control instructions before transmission. This intermediary processing ensures that no essential parking control information is lost during communication, while the data volume is reduced to minimize communication resource consumption and energy usage.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

Provided are an automatic parking method, device and system, relating to the technical field of vehicles. The method comprises: receiving operating information input by a user on the condition of receiving an automatic parking start instruction (101); generating a parking control instruction according to the operating information (102); and sending the parking control instruction to a vehicle for the vehicle to complete an automatic parking operation according to the parking control instruction (103). According to the disclosure, in the process of controlling the vehicle to automatically park, a mobile terminal converts the operating information with large data capacity input by the user in the mobile terminal into the parking control instruction with small data capacity, and only sends the parking control instruction to an automatic parking system controller for the vehicle to complete automatic parking, thereby reducing a communication information capacity between the mobile terminal and the vehicle in the automatic parking process, further improving the efficiency of the automatic parking process, and being beneficial to expanding other functions needed to utilize communication data resources meanwhile.
