Vehicle Drive Mode Control via Management Device Indication
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing intelligent transportation systems (ITS) have limited vehicle control flexibility, as the management device can only effectively control vehicles when they operate within allowed drive modes, leading to monotonous control functions and reduced flexibility.
Innovation Solution
A vehicle control method and system that allows the management device to obtain and determine a target drive mode from a set of allowed modes, sending indication information to the vehicle control device to instruct the vehicle to use the appropriate drive mode, which can include prioritizing modes based on stored correspondence and user requests, ensuring the vehicle operates within the current scenario's allowed modes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the management device only performs control when the vehicle uses an allowed drive mode, then the control reliability is improved, but the vehicle control flexibility deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The management device pre-obtains and stores a correspondence between drive modes and priorities before actual vehicle control operations. This preliminary preparation enables the device to quickly determine appropriate drive modes and send indication information without delay, thereby maintaining control reliability while improving the flexibility and responsiveness of vehicle control adjustments
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts the vehicle's drive mode by sending indication information from the management device to the vehicle control device. This dynamic adjustment capability allows the vehicle to transition between different drive modes based on current scenarios, thereby improving control flexibility while maintaining reliability through the pre-established drive mode correspondence
2Adaptability or versatility
If the management device determines target drive mode from a set of allowed modes and sends indication information, then the vehicle control flexibility is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The management device performs multiple functions: it stores the drive mode correspondence, determines the target drive mode based on current scenarios, and sends indication information to the vehicle control device. By consolidating these functions into a single multi-functional device, the system improves vehicle control flexibility without proportionally increasing overall system complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the drive mode parameter of the vehicle by sending indication information that specifies a target drive mode from a set of allowed modes. This parameter change approach allows flexible vehicle control adjustments while maintaining manageable device complexity through structured data organization and clear communication protocols
