Method for course prediction in driver assistance systems for motor vehicles

摘要

In a method for course prediction in driver assistance systems for motor vehicles, a dynamic course hypothesis is created on the basis of vehicle-dynamics data of the vehicle, which method includes the following steps:
creating an infrastructure course hypothesis on the basis of data from at least one information source that describe the traffic infrastructure;calculating, on the basis of features of the information source, a weighting factor that describes the reliability of the infrastructure course hypothesis; andfusing the infrastructure course hypothesis with the dynamic course hypothesis, with weighting in accordance with the calculated weighting factor, to produce a definitive course hypothesis.

1. A method for providing a course prediction in a driver assistance system of a motor vehicle, comprising:
generating, by the driver assistance system, a dynamic course hypothesis for the vehicle on the basis of vehicle-dynamics data of the vehicle; generating, by the driver assistance system, an infrastructure course hypothesis for the vehicle on the basis of data from at least one information source that describe a traffic infrastructure; calculating, by the driver assistance system, on the basis of features of the at least one information source, a weighting factor that describes the reliability of the infrastructure course hypothesis; and fusing the infrastructure course hypothesis with the dynamic course hypothesis, with weighting in accordance with the calculated weighting factor, to produce a definitive course hypothesis transmitting the definitive course hypothesis to an adaptive cruise control system.
