Abstract

Provided is a traffic congestion prediction method including: a step for detecting the acceleration of a vehicle; a step for calculating a power spectrum corresponding to a frequency from frequency analysis of the detected acceleration; a step for calculating the simple linear regression of the power spectrum and calculating the maximum value of the change in the gradient of the simple linear regression in a specified frequency range as the maximum gradient value; a step for detecting the inter-vehicle distance between the aforementioned vehicle and a vehicle in front; a step which uses a distribution estimation method to estimate an inter-vehicle distance distribution from the detected inter-vehicle distance; a step for calculating the minimum covariance value from the estimated inter-vehicle distance distribution; a step for estimating a front vehicle group distribution from the correlation relationship between the minimum covariance value and the maximum gradient value; and a step for predicting in real time traffic congestion based on the vehicle group distribution.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for predicting traffic jams, specifically, the present invention relates to a method for predicting traffic jams based on the acceleration of the own vehicle and the inter-vehicle distance between the own vehicle and other vehicles. Background technique [0002] In the prior art, there is a traffic jam prediction method applied in a vehicle driving assistance device. For example, Patent Document 1 describes the following content: According to the detection results of the radar device, the vehicle density of other vehicles existing within a predetermined distance range in front of and behind the own vehicle is obtained, and the vehicle density is used to determine whether the driving state of the own vehicle is cause of traffic jams. [0003] However, in the existing methods including Patent Document 1, the vehicle density is used to predict traffic jams, the prediction accuracy may not be high, and there is st...
