Description

本発明は、移動体または移動体の監視もしくは制御に用いられるシステムに備えられた装置に、これらの移動体またはシステムに発生し得る問題の回避もしくは緩和に供される情報を通信路を介して引き渡す交通支援装置に関する。   The present invention provides information provided for avoiding or mitigating problems that may occur in a mobile body or a system used for monitoring or control of the mobile body via a communication path. The present invention relates to a handing over traffic support device.

交通事故、渋滞などといった道路交通問題の回避を目的に構築された交通システムITS(Inteligent
Transportation System:高度道路交通システム)では、路車(路側装置−車両)間、車車(車両−車両)間、人車(歩行者−車両)間などで移動情報などの送受信が行われる。例えば、人車間通信においては、後述する特許文献1に開示されるように、歩行者によって携帯される端末(以下、「携帯端末」という。)は、その歩行者の位置、進行方向、速度などの移動情報を取得して定期的に車両(車載装置)に送信し、車載装置は、受信した移動情報に基づいて接触の可能性を判断し、かつ必要に応じて運転者に警告し、あるいは注意を喚起する。
ITS (Inteligent), a traffic system built to avoid road traffic problems such as traffic accidents and traffic jams
In the Transportation System (Intelligent Road Transportation System), movement information and the like are transmitted and received between road vehicles (roadside devices-vehicles), between vehicles (vehicles-vehicles), between people cars (pedestrians-vehicles), and the like. For example, in inter-vehicle communication, as disclosed in Patent Document 1 described later, a terminal carried by a pedestrian (hereinafter referred to as a “portable terminal”) is the position, traveling direction, speed, etc. of the pedestrian. The movement information is acquired and periodically transmitted to the vehicle (on-vehicle device), and the on-vehicle device determines the possibility of contact based on the received movement information and warns the driver if necessary, or Call attention.

ところが、歩行者や車両が多い場所では、送受信されるべき移動情報の情報量が膨大となり、通信トラフィック量が大幅に増加してしまう。   However, in places where there are many pedestrians and vehicles, the amount of movement information to be transmitted and received becomes enormous, and the amount of communication traffic increases significantly.

従来、人車通信におけるこのような通信トラフィック量の大幅な増加を回避する先行技術としては、後述する特許文献2に開示されるように、「移動体端末から到来した信号の受信電界強度に基づいて、自己の移動情報を送信するか否かの判断が行われるべき位置送信範囲が設定され、位置送信範囲内に他の携帯端末が存在する場合にはその移動情報の送信を禁止する」技術があった。   Conventionally, as a prior art for avoiding such a large increase in communication traffic volume in human-vehicle communication, as disclosed in Patent Document 2 described later, “based on the received electric field strength of a signal arriving from a mobile terminal” The position transmission range in which it is determined whether or not to transmit its own movement information is set, and when there is another mobile terminal within the position transmission range, the transmission of the movement information is prohibited ” was there.

Therefore, the distance from the mobile object can be accurately measured due to a change in propagation characteristics such as multipath and fading. Measurement may be hindered and accurate wireless transmission of movement information may be impaired.

(2) 送受信部15およびアンテナ11TRを介して周辺車両(車両30を含む。)宛に、これらの位置、速度、移動方向などを含む移動情報を無線伝送する(図2ステップS2)。
The control unit 14 performs the following processing (hereinafter referred to as “periodic activation task”) at a predetermined cycle (for example, several seconds required for the person 20 to move 2 to 3 meters).
(1) The position, speed, moving direction, and the like of the terminal 10 (person 20) are specified based on the terminal position sequence stored in the movement information memory 17 in chronological order (step S1 in FIG. 2).
(2) The movement information including the position, speed, movement direction, and the like is wirelessly transmitted to surrounding vehicles (including the vehicle 30) via the transmission / reception unit 15 and the antenna 11TR (step S2 in FIG. 2).

また、制御部14は、既述の通りに衝突可能性判定部13によって危険性判定結果が引き渡されると、上記周期起動タスクより優先して以下の処理を行う。   Further, as described above, when the risk determination result is delivered by the collision possibility determination unit 13, the control unit 14 performs the following processing with priority over the periodic activation task.

(1) 該当する危険性判定の結果が「車両(車両30を含む。)との接触や衝突の危険性がある」ことを示し、かつ最新の周辺車両情報と端末10(人20)の位置、速度、移動方向等との如何にかかわらずその危険性判定結果が成立するか否かの判定を行う(図2ステップS11)。 (1) The result of the corresponding risk determination indicates that there is a risk of contact with or collision with the vehicle (including the vehicle 30), and the latest surrounding vehicle information and the position of the terminal 10 (person 20). It is determined whether the risk determination result is satisfied regardless of the speed, the moving direction, etc. (step S11 in FIG. 2).

(2) このような判定の下で、上記危険性判定結果が成立する場合に限って、その旨を示す情報(以下、「警報情報」という。)を生成し(図2ステップS12)、かつ送受信部15およびアンテナ11TRを介して周辺車両(車両30を含む。)宛にこの警報情報を無線伝送する(図2ステップS13)。 (2) Under such a determination, only when the risk determination result is satisfied, information indicating that fact (hereinafter referred to as “alarm information”) is generated (step S12 in FIG. 2), and This alarm information is wirelessly transmitted to surrounding vehicles (including the vehicle 30) via the transceiver 15 and the antenna 11TR (step S13 in FIG. 2).

なお、上記警報情報については、例えば、以下の項目が含まれてもよいが、既述の移動情報に含まれる項目のみから構成されてもよく、あるいはその他の如何なる内容および形式の情報で代替されてもよい。   The alarm information may include, for example, the following items, but may include only items included in the above-described movement information, or may be replaced with information of any other content and format.

すなわち、端末10と周辺車両との間に形成されるべき無線伝送路は、上述した接触や衝突の可能性がなく、あるいは著しく低い端末10によって周期的に警報情報の送信に供される場合に比べて、伝送容量の余裕度が高く安定に維持される。   In other words, the wireless transmission path to be formed between the terminal 10 and the surrounding vehicle has no possibility of contact or collision described above, or when the alarm information is periodically transmitted by the extremely low terminal 10. In comparison, the margin of transmission capacity is high and stable.

さらに、本実施形態では、車載装置31は、上記可能性がない端末から無線伝送された警報情報の無効性を判別する必要がないので、このような可能性を示す有効な警報情報の処理を効率的にかつ速やかに実行することができ、省電力化が容易に達成される。   Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the in-vehicle device 31 does not need to determine the invalidity of the alarm information wirelessly transmitted from the terminal that does not have the above-described possibility, and therefore processes the effective alarm information indicating such a possibility. It can be executed efficiently and quickly, and power saving is easily achieved.

したがって、本発明が適用された高度道路交通システムでは、構成の大幅な複雑化とコストの大幅な増加とを伴うことなく、応答性および総合的な信頼性が高められる。   Therefore, in the intelligent transportation system to which the present invention is applied, the responsiveness and the overall reliability can be improved without significantly complicating the configuration and increasing the cost.
