Detailed Description

Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the exemplary embodiments below are not intended to represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.

It should be noted that all the actions of acquiring signals, information or data in the present application are performed under the premise of complying with the corresponding data protection regulation policy of the country of the location and obtaining the authorization given by the owner of the corresponding device.

First, an application scenario of the present disclosure is explained, and the vehicle scheduling method mentioned in the present disclosure is used for scheduling vehicles in a fleet, and the method can be applied to a specific device. Illustratively, the designated device may be a server (e.g., a cloud server) capable of communicating with vehicles in a fleet, as shown in fig. 1, wherein the method provided by the present disclosure is applied to a server 10 for scheduling in a fleet of

vehicles

21, 22, 23. As another example, the designated device may be any vehicle in a fleet of vehicles, as shown in fig. 2, where the methods provided by the present disclosure are applied to a vehicle 20 for scheduling a fleet of

vehicles

24, 20, 25. In the present disclosure, the vehicles in the fleet may be electric vehicles, fuel vehicles, or hybrid vehicles, but the disclosure is not limited thereto, and the vehicles in the fleet should have the capability of communicating with the outside. The present disclosure will be described with reference to specific examples.

FIG. 3 is a flow chart illustrating a vehicle dispatch method in accordance with an exemplary embodiment. As shown in fig. 3, the method may include steps 31 to 33.

In step 31, range information for each vehicle in the target fleet to be scheduled is determined.

The driving range information is used for indicating the maximum mileage that the vehicle can run.

The driving mileage information of the vehicle can be obtained by calculating the power parameters of the vehicle. The power parameter of the vehicle may include, but is not limited to, a power value of the vehicle, a power consumption value (e.g., a power consumption value per mileage or a power consumption value per time, etc.). For an electric vehicle or a hybrid vehicle in an electric drive mode, a power value and a power consumption value refer to electric quantity; for a fuel-fired vehicle or a hybrid vehicle in a fuel-fired drive mode, the power value and the power consumption value refer to the fuel amount.

Through the power parameters of the vehicle, the maximum mileage that the vehicle can travel, namely the mileage information of the vehicle can be calculated. For example, the ratio of the power value of the vehicle to the power consumption value per unit mileage is calculated, and the obtained ratio result is the maximum mileage that the vehicle can travel.

For example, the calculation process may be performed by each vehicle in the target vehicle fleet, and accordingly, the driving range information may be directly obtained from each vehicle in the target vehicle fleet when step 31 is performed.

For another example, the calculation process may be performed on a designated device applied to the vehicle scheduling method of the present disclosure, that is, the designated device obtains the power parameter of each vehicle in the target fleet, and then determines the mileage information of each vehicle according to the calculation method according to the power parameter of each vehicle.

In step 32, a first target vehicle is determined from the vehicles whose maximum mileage indicated by the mileage continuation information is greater than a first preset mileage.

If the maximum mileage indicated by the mileage information of a certain vehicle is greater than the first preset mileage, the cruising ability of the vehicle is better, and the power value of the vehicle can support the vehicle to travel for a longer time and can also cope with larger wind resistance. The first preset mileage can be preset according to actual requirements.

A first target vehicle, i.e. a vehicle which is to be the head vehicle of the target fleet, is determined.

In one possible embodiment, one vehicle may be randomly selected as the first target vehicle among the vehicles whose maximum mileage indicated by the mileage continuation information is greater than the first preset mileage. As described above, the vehicles having the maximum mileage indicated by the mileage information larger than the first preset mileage have better cruising ability, and therefore, any one of these vehicles has the ability to become the head vehicle of the vehicle fleet, and therefore, one of the vehicles having the maximum mileage indicated by the mileage information larger than the first preset mileage can be randomly selected as the first target vehicle.

In another possible embodiment, step 32 may include the steps of:

The maximum mileage indicated by the mileage information of the vehicle indicates that the vehicle has the best cruising ability in the target vehicle group, and if such a vehicle is taken as the head vehicle, the cruising ability of the vehicle group can be improved more significantly. Therefore, the vehicle whose maximum mileage indicated by the range information is the largest may be determined as the first target vehicle.

In step 33, a first scheduling instruction for a target fleet is generated.

The first dispatching instruction is used for indicating a first vehicle to be controlled to run at the head of the target vehicle fleet as a first vehicle.

In a possible embodiment, after step 33, the method provided by the present disclosure may further include the steps of:

and when the first target vehicle is in the unmanned driving mode, controlling the first target vehicle to serve as a head vehicle to run at the head of the target vehicle fleet according to the first scheduling instruction.

That is, when the first target vehicle is in the unmanned mode, the first target vehicle may be directly controlled according to the first scheduling command, so that the first target vehicle travels at the head of the target fleet. For example, if the target vehicle fleet does not start yet, the first target vehicle may be controlled to start first, and after the first target vehicle starts, the other vehicles may be controlled to start sequentially.

In another possible embodiment, after step 33, the method provided by the present disclosure may further include the steps of:

when the first target vehicle is controlled by the driver, a first scheduling instruction is sent to the first target vehicle.

The first dispatching instruction is used for being output by the first target vehicle to indicate a driver to control the first target vehicle to run at the head of the target vehicle fleet as a head vehicle.

That is, if the first target vehicle is controlled by the driver, the driver outputs the relevant prompt only through the first scheduling command, and operates the first target vehicle to travel to the head of the target vehicle group.

Through the technical scheme, the cruising mileage information of each vehicle in the target fleet to be scheduled is determined, wherein the cruising mileage information is used for indicating the maximum mileage that the vehicle can run, a first target vehicle is determined from the vehicles with the maximum mileage indicated by the cruising mileage information larger than a first preset mileage, and then a first scheduling instruction for the target fleet is generated, wherein the first scheduling instruction is used for indicating and controlling the first target vehicle to serve as the head of the fleet, which runs on the target fleet, of the first target vehicle. From this, through selecting the vehicle that duration is stronger as the head car of the motorcade, can deal with the high windage of motorcade head, the high energy consumption condition betterly, thereby, at the motorcade in-process of marcing, make the head car of motorcade always have the vehicle of stronger duration through the dispatch, simultaneously, also can make the vehicle that duration is not good become the following vehicle of motorcade rather than the head car through above-mentioned scheduling mode, the energy consumption of the vehicle that duration is not good has been reduced, thereby, be favorable to advancing the duration of whole motorcade at the motorcade in-process.

In a possible implementation, on the basis of the steps shown in fig. 3, the method provided by the present disclosure may further include the following steps:

acquiring the remaining mileage information of the current trip of the target motorcade;

when determining that a second target vehicle which cannot complete the journey exists according to the remaining mileage information and the cruising mileage information, determining the position information of the power supplement equipment in a preset range around the target vehicle fleet;

the location information is sent to a second target vehicle.

The current journey of the target motorcade corresponds to the journey destination, so that the remaining mileage information of the current journey of the target motorcade can be determined according to the current position of the target motorcade. For example, the mileage between the current position of the target fleet and the travel destination of the current travel of the target fleet can be determined as the remaining mileage information. For example, the current location of the target fleet may be the location of the head car of the target fleet. As another example, the current location of the target fleet may be the location of an intermediate vehicle in the target fleet.

Then, by comparing the mileage information of each vehicle with the remaining mileage information, it is determined whether there is a vehicle whose maximum mileage indicated by the mileage information is less than the mileage indicated by the remaining mileage information, and such a vehicle is the second target vehicle that cannot complete the current trip.

If a vehicle which cannot complete the journey, namely a second target vehicle exists in the target fleet, in order to enable the second target vehicle to smoothly complete the journey, a nearby power supplementing device can be searched for the second target vehicle. That is, the position information of the power supplement devices within a preset range around the target fleet is determined.

For example, the location information of the power supplement devices within a preset range of the perimeter of the target fleet may be determined by:

determining power type information of a second target vehicle;

Wherein the power type information is used to indicate a power type of the driving vehicle. The power type information may be electric or fuel driven, as previously described.

Because different power types need different power supplementing modes, the power type information of the second target vehicle is determined firstly, and then the position information of the power supplementing equipment matched with the power type information in the preset range around the target vehicle fleet is further determined.

For example, if the power type information of the second target vehicle is electrically driven, the power supplementing device may be a charging pile or a charging station, and accordingly, the position information of the power supplementing device within the preset range around the target vehicle fleet may be determined, so that the position information of the charging pile or the charging station within the preset range around the target vehicle fleet may be determined.

For another example, if the power type information of the second target vehicle is fuel-driven, the power supplement device may be a gas station, and accordingly, the position information of the gas station within the preset range around the target vehicle fleet may be determined by determining the position information of the power supplement device within the preset range around the target vehicle fleet.

After the position information of the power supplement devices within the preset range around the target fleet is determined, the position information can be sent to the second target vehicles so that the second target vehicles can select one of the target vehicles to supplement power.

On the basis of the above steps, the method provided by the present disclosure may further include the steps of:

when finishing information used for representing that the second target vehicle finishes power supplement is received, determining a third target vehicle closest to the second target vehicle in the target vehicle fleet according to the positions of all vehicles in the target vehicle fleet;

a second scheduling instruction is generated.

And the second dispatching instruction is used for instructing and controlling the second target vehicle to travel to the third target vehicle.

When the completion information is received, it indicates that the second target vehicle sending the completion information has completed power replenishment, and since the second target vehicle needs to be parked during power replenishment, and may already be far away from the target fleet, it is necessary to control the second target vehicle to return to the target fleet again.

Therefore, a third target vehicle closest to the second target vehicle in the target fleet can be determined according to the positions of the vehicles in the target fleet, and a second scheduling instruction for controlling the second target vehicle to travel to the third target vehicle can be generated.

In this way, the second target vehicle after power supplement can be ensured to return to the fleet again as soon as possible.

In one possible embodiment, the method provided by the present disclosure may further include the steps of:

determining a fourth target vehicle of which the maximum mileage indicated by the mileage information is less than a second preset mileage;

a third scheduling instruction is generated.

Wherein the second preset mileage is less than the first preset mileage.

The maximum mileage indicated by the mileage information of the vehicle is less than the second preset mileage, which indicates that the vehicle has poor cruising ability and may not cope with large wind resistance, so that the vehicle can be dispatched to the tail of the target fleet with small wind resistance.

Accordingly, a third scheduling instruction may be generated that is indicative of controlling a fourth target vehicle to travel in the target fleet proximate to a rear of the fleet.

In one possible embodiment, when the fourth target vehicle is in the unmanned mode, the fourth target vehicle is controlled to travel near the tail of the target vehicle fleet according to the third scheduling instruction.

That is, when the fourth target vehicle is in the unmanned driving mode, the fourth target vehicle may be controlled directly according to the third scheduling instruction, so that the fourth target vehicle travels at a position close to the tail of the target vehicle fleet.

In another possible embodiment, the third scheduling command is sent to the fourth target vehicle when the fourth target vehicle is controlled by the driver.

And the third dispatching instruction is used for being output by the fourth target vehicle to indicate the driver to control the fourth target vehicle to run at a position close to the tail of the target vehicle fleet.

That is, if the fourth target vehicle is controlled by the driver, the driver outputs the relevant prompt only through the third scheduling command, and operates the fourth target vehicle to travel to a position close to the tail of the target vehicle group in the target vehicle group.

Through the mode, the vehicles with poor cruising ability can run at the tail part of the motorcade with small wind resistance, so that the power consumption of the vehicles is reduced, and the cruising mileage of the vehicles is prolonged as far as possible.

dividing the target motorcade into a plurality of sub-motorcades according to the distance between adjacent vehicles in the target motorcade;

and aiming at each sub-motorcade, determining the vehicle with the maximum mileage indicated by the cruising mileage information in the sub-motorcade as a fifth target vehicle of the sub-motorcade, and generating a fourth dispatching instruction aiming at the sub-motorcade.

The distance between adjacent vehicles in the sub-fleets is smaller than or equal to a preset distance, and the distance between a tail vehicle in the sub-fleets positioned in front of the adjacent sub-fleets and a head vehicle in the sub-fleets positioned in back of the adjacent sub-fleets is larger than the preset distance.

That is, when the distance between adjacent vehicles in the target fleet is too far, the target fleet may be divided into different sub-fleets according to the actual scene. As shown in fig. 4, the target fleet is composed of C1 to C6, which are sequentially adjacent to each other, wherein the distances between adjacent vehicles of C1 to C4 are all less than or equal to a preset distance, the distance between C4 and C5 exceeds the preset distance, and the distance between C5 and C6 does not exceed the preset distance, therefore, the target fleet can be divided into a first sub-fleet composed of C1 to C4 and a second sub-fleet composed of C5 and C6.

For example, when adjacent vehicles exist in the target fleet, the distance between the adjacent vehicles is larger than the preset distance, and the duration of the distance larger than the preset distance reaches the preset duration, the target fleet is divided into a plurality of sub-fleets according to the distance between the adjacent vehicles in the target fleet. That is, when the distance between adjacent vehicles in the target fleet has been long enough to exceed the preset distance, the sub-fleet is divided. Therefore, frequent division of the sub-motorcade caused by short distance between adjacent vehicles can be avoided, and data processing pressure is reduced.

After dividing the sub fleets, a fourth scheduling instruction may be generated for each sub fleet, respectively. And the fourth scheduling instruction is used for indicating that the fifth target vehicle is controlled to run at the head of the fleet of the sub-fleet as the head vehicle.

That is to say, aiming at each sub-motorcade, the vehicle with the best cruising ability in the sub-motorcade is respectively dispatched to the head vehicle of the sub-motorcade, so that the cruising ability of each sub-motorcade can be ensured, and further, the cruising ability of the whole target motorcade is improved.
