Deciding on the direction of travel in the event of a resumption of movement in an automated parking process by means of a parking assistance system

摘要

A method is provided for resuming the movement of a motor vehicle after unforeseen stopping in an automated parking process performed by a parking assistance system having automated longitudinal and transverse guidance. If the vehicle is stopped, a decision is made about a resumption of movement of the vehicle in the prior direction of travel that existed before the vehicle was stopped. The decision is made in dependence on the remaining travel path from the current position to the next planned stopping point of the trajectory lying in the prior direction of travel. A stopping point of the trajectory can be a reversal point or the final parking position, for example. If the decision is positive, the movement of the vehicle is resumed in the prior direction of travel. If the decision is negative, the movement of the vehicle is resumed against the prior direction of travel. Alternatively, in the case of a negative decision, the movement of the vehicle may not be resumed and the parking process may be ended.

1. A method for resuming movement of a motor vehicle after unforeseen stopping in an automated parking process along a planned trajectory carried out by a parking assistance system having automated longitudinal and transverse guidance, the method comprising the acts of:
in an event of a stopping of the vehicle, deciding about a resumption of movement of the vehicle in the previous direction of travel which existed before the vehicle was stopped:
as a function of a length of a remaining route from a current position up to a next planned stopping point, in the previous direction of travel, on the trajectoryin the event of a positive decision, resuming the movement of the vehicle in the previous direction of travel, andin the event of a negative decision:  a) resuming the movement of the vehicle counter to the previous direction of travel or  b) not resuming the movement of the vehicle and ending the parking process.
