APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR GENERATING GLOBAL PATH FOR AN AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE

摘要

There are provided an apparatus and method for generating a global path for an autonomous vehicle. The apparatus for generating a global path for an autonomous vehicle includes a sensor module including one or more sensors installed in the vehicle, a traffic information receiver configured to receive traffic information through wireless communication, a path generator configured to generate one or more candidate paths based on the traffic information, a difficulty evaluator configured to evaluate a difficulty of driving in the one or more candidate paths in each section of the one or more candidate paths using recognition rates of the one or more sensors and the traffic information, and an autonomous driving path selector configured to finally select an autonomous driving path by evaluating the one or more candidate paths based on the evaluation of the difficulty of driving.
