The second embodiment is as follows: the present embodiment will be described with reference to figure 1,
The embodiment is a vehicle cooperative security interaction system fusing a 4D millimeter wave radar and a monocular vision camera, comprising:

the process of character recognition of the front license plate information comprises the following steps:
Firstly, a single-frame picture is extracted from a dynamic video stream of a camera, and a license plate is segmented from the picture shot by the camera. The license plate picture of the data set is required to be preprocessed before license plate recognition, the original image in the color video information extracted by the camera is converted into a gray image, the data size of the image can be greatly reduced, and meanwhile, the interference of the color on the subsequent character recognition is eliminated. And carrying out binarization processing on the preprocessed gray level image, and highlighting a license plate region in the image to determine the outline of the license plate region. Then, denoising the picture, such as: expansion, corrosion and other operations, a relatively accurate license plate outline is obtained, and then OCR is adopted to perform character recognition, and a sample of the recognition process is shown in fig. 2.

However, in recent years, the amount of new energy vehicles is greatly increased, so that the CCPD2020 license plate data set is adopted for carrying out supplementary training, and the new energy green license plate data under different brightness, different inclination angles and different weather environments mainly comprise ten thousand total pieces. And respectively selecting 80% of samples in the two data sets as a training set, and the rest samples as a test set to test the training effect of deep learning, wherein the accuracy rate of license plate recognition after training reaches 93.7%.
Vehicle speed information acquisition unit: acquiring the running speed information of a front vehicle and a host vehicle;
In the process, if the front vehicle information is retrieved, acquiring the vehicle state information of the front vehicle provided by the Beidou satellite navigation system in an information sharing mode, and acquiring the vehicle state information of the own vehicle based on the Beidou satellite navigation system; the vehicle state information comprises position coordinates (longitude and latitude), vehicle speed and other relevant information; then extracting speed information from the vehicle state information;
if the information of the front vehicle is not retrieved or the vehicle state information of the front vehicle provided by the Beidou satellite navigation system cannot be obtained in an information sharing mode, the 4D millimeter wave radar sensor of the vehicle is adopted to obtain the speed information of the front vehicle.
Real-time vehicle distance determining unit: monitoring real-time vehicle distance by using a monocular vision camera or a 4D millimeter wave radar installed on the vehicle;
The vehicle distance calculation delay is larger and the accuracy is lower after the vehicle position information is acquired through the Beidou satellite navigation system, so that the real-time vehicle distance is monitored by using the monocular vision camera or the 4D millimeter wave radar arranged on the vehicle.
A. Acquiring license plate position information of a front vehicle in real time by using a monocular vision camera, representing the position information of the front vehicle by using the license plate position information, and calculating to obtain the real-time vehicle distance between the front vehicle and the own vehicle based on the imaging relation between the license plate position information of the front vehicle and the monocular vision camera;
The process for calculating the real-time vehicle distance between the vehicle and the front vehicle based on the imaging relation between the license plate position information of the front vehicle and the monocular vision camera comprises the following steps:
determining the projection relation between a license plate plane and an image plane of a front vehicle based on the imaging characteristics of a monocular vision camera; according to the imaging principle of the camera, the height of the camera of the vehicle running on the horizontal road surface is unchanged, so that the bottom edge line of the front vehicle has a corresponding relationship with the distance between the two vehicles, as shown in fig. 3.
Substituting the image plane characteristics of the front vehicle obtained through perception into the following monocular vision camera distance calculation formula, and obtaining the distance D between the front vehicle and the front vehicle.
And (3) a space rectangular coordinate system is established by taking the camera point C as the center, so that the Z axis is parallel to the main optical axis of the camera, X π is an imaging point of an image plane, the corresponding relation of the license plate plane and the image plane in the figure 4 exists, and the data of the relevant initial installation angle, focal length, pixel height, observation angle and the like of the vehicle-mounted camera are substituted into a formula, so that the distance D between two vehicles can be obtained.
Wherein D is the distance between the front vehicle and the vehicle; h is the height of the camera from the road surface; θ c is the included angle between the camera and the vertical axis, namely the initial installation angle of the camera; h is the pixel height; h i is the height of the effective imaging surface of the camera; d p is the effective size of the imaging plane pixel; alpha is the observable angle of the camera.
B. Acquiring the real-time vehicle distance of a front vehicle in real time by using a 4D millimeter wave radar;
Because the 4D millimeter wave radar has higher measurement accuracy in short distance and low speed, namely when the distance between two vehicles reaches the pre-warning critical distance or the vehicle does not reach the activation critical speed (namely, the vehicle speed is less than 25 km/h), and when the monocular vision camera fails (such as the conditions of heavy fog, snow burst, heavy rain and the like, the 4D millimeter wave radar can be triggered according to a preset mode when the condition that the monocular vision camera fails is achieved), the 4D millimeter wave radar sensor is selected for ranging, and otherwise, the monocular vision camera is utilized for monitoring the vehicle distance change.
Radar and cameras are common sensors for measuring vehicle distance. They each have advantages and disadvantages. Because the radar sensor is not affected by weather, and the measurement is accurate for the low-speed stage of the vehicle just started, but the radar is difficult to distinguish the details of the target, the radar sensor is not ideal for the application requiring more detailed information, and the monocular vision camera sensor is adopted for monitoring when the vehicle speed is large and the vehicle distance is far. Therefore, the system has the advantages of low cost, low maintenance cost and popularization, and the defect of supplementing the monocular camera sensor by adopting the 4D millimeter wave radar sensor.
The 4D millimeter wave radar installed on the vehicle can provide environment sensing information in four dimensions of distance, horizontal positioning, vertical positioning and speed for the system, the speed measurement accuracy data of the system depend on signal to noise ratio, and the specific measurement principle is shown in fig. 5.
Meanwhile, under the condition that a camera cannot be used for ranging and extracting license plates when a lane is changed, overtaking and the like, the system adopts a 4D millimeter wave radar sensor to detect short-distance vehicle distance information, tangential movement and angle of a vehicle in real time.
Auxiliary information acquisition unit: acquiring the passing condition of the vehicle based on the road monitoring camera, namely judging whether the road is congested and slowly moving;
The congestion and creep of the traffic flow are judged through the existing internet of vehicles technology and a road monitoring camera, the time required for the traffic to pass through the road is obtained based on the Beidou satellite navigation system, information interaction is established between the traffic flow and a system database, the average time required for the traffic to pass through the road is comprehensively calculated, if the required time is larger than the average time, the traffic flow and creep of the road are judged, and the system database shares information to the traffic in the system.
An early warning information activating unit: based on the speed of the vehicle monitored in real time, judging whether the speed exceeds an activation critical speed, and further determining that the early warning information calculating unit is in a resting or active state;
When judging the applicable vehicle speed range of the system, the daily running condition of the vehicle is fully considered, and the average running speed of the commute peak of the urban road is close to the minimum speed of the daily running, so that the system has reference significance, and the commute peak is taken into the consideration range of the system.
The actual speed of the commute peak in 2022 can be found to be greater than 25km/h based on the index reflecting urban traffic conditions obtained by mining and calculating mass traffic travel data, vehicle track data and position service data of the hundred-degree map. The commute peak actual travel speed should be the lowest value of the vehicle travel speed in the city and the average travel speed should be greater than the commute peak actual travel speed in normal smooth travel conditions. If the vehicle runs in the expressway, the lowest speed limit is 60km/h, and the running speed is lower than 60km/h, which belongs to the traffic illegal action, and the running speed of the vehicle on the expressway is necessarily higher than the actual running speed of the commute peak, so that the invention determines the activation critical speed as 25km/h for meeting two application scenes of urban roads and expressways.
When the speed of the vehicle is greater than 25km/h, the probability of collision accidents of the vehicle is increased, so that the early warning information calculation unit and the 4D millimeter wave radar enter an active running state; when the speed of the vehicle is not more than 25km/h, the early warning information calculation unit is in a resting state, and at the moment, the real-time monitoring and collision early warning of the whole distance of the vehicle are only carried out based on the 4D millimeter wave mine, and the situation is needed to be explained, namely, the collision detection is carried out by utilizing the distance information measured by the 4D millimeter wave mine, and the process is only needed to be carried out by adopting the prior art, so that the invention does not carry out excessive explanation.
Early warning information calculation unit: substituting the speed information of the front vehicle and the speed information of the own vehicle into an improved Berkeley model, and calculating to obtain an early warning critical distance and a braking critical distance;
Most of the existing vehicle early warning modes are judged based on the state of the vehicle, so that various factors need to be comprehensively considered when a critical distance calculation model is determined, and adverse conditions such as untimely warning or false warning are avoided. The early warning distance and the braking distance are set in the basic Berkeley model and are matched with the data required by the system, so that the system is improved on the basis of the Berkeley model.
The invention fully considers the technical development of the existing vehicle, considers the application range of the system for the automatic driving automobile, and reflects the influence of the automatic driving automobile in a calculation model of the critical distance. For an autonomous vehicle, the time required for the driver to take over control (i.e., take over time) needs to be considered.
The early warning distance and the braking distance are affected by factors such as a driver, a vehicle and the environment, and according to the analysis of the braking process of the automobile, it can be found that when the driver brakes, the whole process mainly comprises four stages, as shown in fig. 6, respectively: a braking reaction phase, a braking coordination phase, a braking duration phase and a braking stop phase.
The vehicle runs in daily life, the critical distance between the early warning and the braking can be calculated according to the speed and the position information of the front vehicle and the vehicle, and the critical distance between the early warning and the braking can be calculated according to different running states of the front vehicle:
(1) Front vehicle at uniform speed
When the front vehicle runs at a constant speed, if collision is possible, the speed of the front vehicle is longer than that of the front vehicle. When such a situation occurs, in order to avoid collision, the vehicle needs to be decelerated to be not more than the speed of the front vehicle in time, and the running state of the vehicle is analyzed to know that:
Firstly, according to vehicle registration information of a system database, whether the vehicle is an automatic driving vehicle is determined, if the vehicle is the automatic driving vehicle, the driving distance of the vehicle in the taking over time of a driver is as follows: d L=v1t0; wherein t 0 is the driver take over time; typically 1.5 to 2.0s, here 1.8s; v 1 is the speed of the vehicle;
For the vehicle to be a non-autonomous vehicle, the driver take-over time is not considered during braking, i.e. at this time t 0 =0, so d L =0.
The early warning and braking critical distances at this time are respectively:
Early warning critical distance D w1:
braking critical distance D b1:
Wherein: v 1 is the speed of the vehicle; v 2 is the front vehicle speed; a 1 is the brake deceleration of the vehicle; t 1 is the reaction time of the braking system, and is generally 0.1 to 0.2s, here 0.15s; t 2 is the coordination time of the braking system, and is generally 0.3s; d 0 is the safety distance after parking, and is generally 1m. Wherein a 1 selects the road surface condition needing to comprehensively consider the running of the vehicle, and the speed of the vehicle is larger than the position of a brake pedal of the vehicle when the vehicle is in front.
The road surface condition has a larger influence on the maximum braking deceleration of the vehicle, the traditional critical distance calculation model has fewer consideration on the maximum braking deceleration, the braking deceleration is determined to be a maximum fixed value, and the condition of untimely early warning is easy to occur. Therefore, in the critical distance calculation model, different maximum braking deceleration of the vehicle is adopted according to different road adhesion coefficients of the driving environment, and the specific selection is shown in table 1.
Maximum braking deceleration achievable by the vehicle: a max =μg; mu is the road adhesion coefficient; g=9.8 m/s 2.
TABLE 1 road attachment coefficient and maximum braking deceleration for different road conditions
The relationship between the brake pedal travel depth and the brake deceleration of the vehicle is shown in fig. 7, and the curve is a wave-like rise. The change of the brake pedal stroke is converted into a proportion, and the relation curve is smoothed, so that the relation curve graph of the brake pedal stroke proportion and the vehicle brake deceleration of the figure 8 can be obtained.
The brake pedal position can be divided into six phases according to two diagrams. In the 0-3.5% interval, namely in the initial stage of braking, a certain physical gap exists between the pedal and the friction plate, and the brake can generate obvious deceleration after overcoming the idle stroke of the brake pedal, so that the 3.5% of the stroke of the brake pedal is defined as the first stage of braking, and then the stroke of the brake pedal is divided into four stages of 10%, 25%, 45% and 60%. According to national regulations, when the brake pedal travel is greater than 75%, the brake system is required to provide maximum brake pressure, at which point the vehicle reaches maximum brake deceleration, thus defining 75% of the pedal travel as the sixth stage of braking. The maximum braking deceleration for the different braking phases for the different ratios is shown in table 2.
TABLE 2 brake pedal travel and brake deceleration
When the speed of the vehicle is greater than the speed of the preceding vehicle, the maximum braking deceleration a max of the vehicle is determined according to the road surface condition of the vehicle, and then the braking deceleration a 1 of the vehicle is determined according to the acquired position of the braking pedal of the vehicle, and then the critical distance is calculated according to the table 2.
(2) Front vehicle deceleration
When the vehicle is driven along with the vehicle, if the front vehicle suddenly and emergently decelerates, the driver does not react timely, and the rear-end collision is most likely to happen. Therefore, the system calculates and monitors the distance between the front vehicle and the own vehicle in real time, and if the distance between the front vehicle and the own vehicle is recognized to reach the calculated early warning critical distance, the system needs to perform early warning. When two vehicles are braked and parked, under the same road surface condition, the maximum emergency braking deceleration of the two vehicles is the same, and according to the analysis of the speed and the braking deceleration of the two vehicles, the early warning and the braking critical distance at the moment are respectively as follows:
early warning critical distance D w2:
Braking critical distance D b2:
(3) Stationary front vehicle
When the front vehicle is stationary, namely v 2 is equal to 0 at the moment, in order to avoid rear-end collision accidents, the vehicle needs to brake in time, and then the early warning and the critical distance calculation of the braking only need to consider v 1, which are respectively:
early warning critical distance D w3:
braking critical distance D b3:
Since the preceding vehicle is one of the three conditions, D w1、Dw2 or D w3 is taken as the pre-warning critical distance D w, and D b1、Db2 or D b3 is taken as the braking critical distance D b;
Information data such as road surface condition of the vehicle, brake pedal position and the like are collected, and the brake deceleration a 1 of the vehicle is comprehensively determined.
Early warning judging and prompting unit: comparing the distance D between the front vehicle and the vehicle with the pre-warning critical distance D w;
if the distance between the two vehicles is larger than the pre-warning critical distance, continuously monitoring;
If the distance between the two vehicles is not greater than the pre-warning critical distance, acquiring the license plate number of the front vehicle and the result of whether the system is used or not by the identification and retrieval unit, acquiring registration information of the front vehicle and the self vehicle based on a system database, and determining whether the front vehicle and the self vehicle are automatic driving vehicles or not; carrying out early warning prompt and judging whether a driver takes effective measures or not;
Current autopilot technology is rapidly evolving and has increasingly been used, so the system takes autopilot vehicles into account. The process of determining whether the vehicle is an autonomous vehicle is accomplished based on registration information stored in a system database, and if the vehicle uses the present system, initial information of the vehicle needs to be registered in the system, including whether the vehicle is an autonomous car and an autonomous class. According to the automatic driving classification shown in the following fig. 9, the L2 still needs the human driver to monitor the surrounding environment, and the design concept of cooperative communication early warning with the vehicle road of the system is not consistent, so that the automatic driving vehicles of the L3 level and above are considered, and the vehicles can avoid risks in advance by means of the omnibearing perception of the system.
If the front vehicle also uses the system, the front vehicle and the vehicle are jointly subjected to early warning prompt;
if the front vehicle does not use the system, the vehicle performs self-early warning;
After early warning, the attitude data of the vehicle steering, braking and the like of the vehicle or two vehicles (a front vehicle and the vehicle) are monitored in real time, whether a driver takes effective measures or not is judged, and the set threshold value of whether the driver takes the effective measures or not respectively considers two conditions of the steering and the braking of the vehicle:
(1) Turning: if the transverse offset threshold value of the vehicle exceeds 0.2m, the system judges that the driver definitely carries out the current early warning prompt and then consciously carries out steering operation;
(2) Braking: if the travel threshold of the brake pedal of the vehicle reaches 10% of the maximum value, judging that the driver knows the current early warning prompt and then consciously performing braking operation;
If one of the two conditions of the vehicle posture is monitored, judging that the driver receives the early warning information and timely taking effective measures; if the vehicle does not take effective measures, the vehicle is judged not to receive the early warning information, and the system continuously monitors until collision occurs.
Braking decision and emergency early warning unit: determining a vehicle distance change state in real time based on the distance D between the front vehicle and the own vehicle, and comparing the distance D between the two vehicles with a braking critical distance D b;
If the distance between two vehicles is continuously increased, the system monitors that the distance between two vehicles is larger than the pre-warning critical distance, and then the dangerous state is relieved;
If the vehicle distance between the two vehicles is continuously reduced, the system enters an emergency early warning state; if the distance between two vehicles is continuously reduced to the braking critical distance, aiming at the vehicle being an automatic driving vehicle, the system sends an instruction to the vehicle to automatically take emergency braking; aiming at the fact that the vehicle is a non-automatic driving vehicle, the system sends out vehicle collision early warning, and meanwhile continuously monitors until collision occurs.
If the front vehicle also uses the system, the front vehicle is also subjected to vehicle collision early warning;
An accident information sharing unit: after collision, based on vehicle longitude and latitude information acquired by the Beidou satellite navigation system during collision (when the data during collision is missing, the data is taken as the time of collision immediately before collision), the database searches relevant data such as the automatic driving grade of the vehicle, the vehicle running speed, the collision early warning condition and the like, and uploads the relevant data to the database, and then based on the vehicle longitude and latitude information during collision, the early warning range of the accident site is calculated and determined, accident reminding is sent to vehicles using the system in the range, and surrounding vehicles are guided to avoid.
Because the traffic accident causes the crowded influence scope is great, in order to ensure the travelling comfort of other vehicles, the travelling direction of the specified accident site is the affected area De of accident in 100m, therefore the early warning scope D A of this system is:
For vehicles that reach an activation threshold vehicle speed:
DA=DW+De
Wherein, D e is the early warning distance, which is 100m in the present embodiment; dw is the critical distance of early warning;
For vehicles which do not reach the activation critical speed, the collision is monitored only by using a 4D millimeter wave radar, and the situation of D W cannot be obtained, then D A=De =100deg.C;
Meanwhile, the related accident data is synchronized with the traffic departments, the related departments are prompted to process and solve, timely information is provided for vehicle evacuation in the following accident vehicle rescue and early warning range, and the auxiliary information acquisition unit can be used for carrying out collaborative processing on accidents through road side traffic control and guidance facilities such as intersection traffic lights, electronic guideboard information display and the like based on whether traffic flow states monitored by the road monitoring cameras are congested and slow; after the accident is solved, the traffic department can issue accident release information through the system and restore the road side facilities to the state before the accident.
In the process of sending accident reminding to the vehicles using the system in the range and guiding surrounding vehicles to avoid, the prompt receiving condition of the vehicles of the system can be monitored, the feedback signal of the vehicles of the system in the early warning range is obtained, and if the vehicles timely feed back and effectively avoid the accident area, the system monitors the vehicles to leave the early warning range and then releases the early warning; if the vehicle does not provide feedback information in time within the limited feedback time, the vehicle is subjected to early warning prompt on the vehicle which is not fed back.
For non-autonomous vehicles, i.e. vehicles operated by the driver, the response speed of the driver to the early warning signal is limited during driving, and the response time is about 0.5s under the general condition. The selective judging time required to carry out complex analysis can reach 2s, and the effective feedback time of the driver is preliminarily determined to be 3s according to the individual differences of the driver.
For an autonomous vehicle, the reaction time of the system is far less than that of the driver, but after receiving the early warning, the driver selects to take over driving right, and the taking over time needs to be considered in a limited feedback time. To sum up, to ensure the consistency of the system, the limited feedback duration is determined to be 3s.
If the feedback time is within the limited feedback time, the system receives the feedback signal of the system vehicle in the early warning range, and then the system monitors the vehicle to leave the early warning range in real time and releases the early warning; if the system does not receive the feedback signal, the vehicle early warning prompt is carried out on the vehicle which is not fed back.
According to the invention, the 4D millimeter wave radar is combined with the monocular vision camera, so that the problem of low current vehicle distance measurement precision is effectively solved, and the vehicle surrounding systems are reminded of avoiding vehicles through cooperative early warning and effective feedback of the system, so that traffic jam caused by accidents is greatly relieved. The working process of the system comprises the following steps:
Acquiring relevant state information such as vehicle speed, longitude and latitude of a system by using a Beidou satellite navigation system, acquiring vehicle passing conditions by using intelligent infrastructures such as road monitoring, monitoring the vehicle speed in real time by using the system, judging the vehicle speed in advance, and entering an active state by using the system if the vehicle speed reaches the system condition;
And secondly, collecting auxiliary information data of the system vehicle, substituting the information of the speed of the front vehicle and the speed of the vehicle meeting the preset speed condition of the system into an improved Berkeley model, and determining the critical distance between early warning and braking of the system vehicle through calculation.
Step three, using a monocular vision camera to collect and capture the information of the license plate of the front vehicle in real time, calculating the distance between the vehicles, determining the distance between the two vehicles, and comparing the calculation result with the pre-warning critical distance;
Step four, if the distance between the two vehicles is larger than the pre-warning critical distance, the system monitors in real time; otherwise, the front license plate is extracted based on the character recognition of the deep learning of the camera sensor, and the system service condition of the front license is judged;
Fifthly, if the front vehicle uses the system, the front vehicle and the rear vehicle carry out early warning prompt, and monitor whether the two vehicles take effective measures such as braking, steering and the like; if the front vehicle does not use the system, the vehicle pre-warns itself;
Step six, judging whether the distance between the two vehicles reaches a braking critical distance, checking whether the vehicle is an automatic driving vehicle, and if the distance is continuously reduced, performing self-adaptive forced braking on the automatic driving vehicle and performing early warning on the non-automatic driving vehicle; if the vehicle distance is increased, the two vehicles are released from the alarm state;
Step seven, measuring distance of the driving environment in real time based on a 4D millimeter wave radar, monitoring the surrounding environment of the vehicle body, uploading accident data such as vehicle position information, vehicle damage degree and the like to a system if the dangerous distance is reached, determining an early warning range by the system through backstage scheduling, carrying out regional collaborative accident early warning of the system vehicle based on intelligent traffic infrastructure, otherwise, monitoring the vehicle to a safe vehicle distance state in real time by the system;
And step eight, monitoring feedback signals of the system vehicles in the area. If the vehicle does not provide feedback information in time within the effective feedback time, the vehicle early warning prompt is carried out; aiming at timely avoiding of effective feedback vehicles, the system monitors the vehicles to the extent that the vehicles exit the early warning range.
