本發明係有關於一種路徑規劃系統及方法,且特別有關於一種以電動車電量與道路狀態為考量之電動車充電之路徑規劃系統及其方法。 The present invention relates to a route planning system and method, and in particular to a route planning system and method for electric vehicle charging that take electric vehicle power and road conditions into consideration.
近年來,隨著環保意識抬頭,以及電動車科技的進步,開發以電能作為動力來源的電動車輛取代以化石燃料作為動力的傳統車輛,逐漸成為車用領域內的重要目標,因此使得電動車輛愈來愈普及。為了提高電動車航程與使用意願,許多國家或城市都已開始規劃在公眾場所設置提供電力給電動車的充電站,也開始著手規劃在市區或風景區大量佈設充電站,使電動車的充電更為方便。 In recent years, with the rising awareness of environmental protection and the advancement of electric vehicle technology, the development of electric vehicles powered by electricity to replace traditional vehicles powered by fossil fuels has gradually become an important goal in the field of vehicles, thus making electric vehicles more and more more and more popular. In order to improve the range and willingness to use electric vehicles, many countries or cities have begun to plan to set up charging stations that provide electricity to electric vehicles in public places, and have also begun to plan to deploy a large number of charging stations in urban areas or scenic spots to make the charging of electric vehicles more convenient.
另一方面,當使用者需要為其電動車進行充電時,電動車的使用者可以透過導航軟體提供一導航路徑指引導航至一特定充電站點以對其電動車進行充電。一般而言,導航路徑指引通常會先提供依據目前位置以及特定充電站點位置決定之與充電站點相距離最短之一最短路徑或可在最短時間到達目的充電站之一最快路徑來做為規畫路徑,以最省時間成本或最省距離成本的方式快速進行將電動車導航至特定充電站點的導航作業。然而,由於不同電動車的車輛特性並不相同且導航過程中所經過的道路地形條件也會影響電動車的耗電量,單純考量時間及距離成本的傳統導航路徑規劃方式可能並不適於電動車的導航作業,有可能會造成電動車還沒到達特定充電站點前在半路上已經完全沒有電力而無法順利抵達特定充電站點進行充電作業,造成電動車使用者的缺電焦慮。因此,需要一種適用於電動車的路徑規劃系統及方法。 On the other hand, when the user needs to charge his electric vehicle, the user of the electric vehicle can provide a navigation route through the navigation software to guide and navigate to a specific charging station to charge his electric vehicle. Generally speaking, the navigation route guidance usually first provides the shortest path with the shortest distance to the charging station or the fastest path that can reach the destination charging station in the shortest time based on the current location and the location of the specific charging station. Plan the route, and quickly navigate the electric vehicle to a specific charging station in the most time-saving or distance-saving way. However, due to the different vehicle characteristics of different electric vehicles and the terrain conditions of the roads passed during the navigation process will also affect the power consumption of electric vehicles, the traditional navigation path planning method that only considers time and distance costs may not be suitable for electric vehicles The navigation operation may cause the electric vehicle to be completely out of power halfway before reaching the specific charging station and unable to smoothly arrive at the specific charging station for charging operations, causing electric vehicle users to worry about lack of power. Therefore, there is a need for a path planning system and method suitable for electric vehicles.

首先,如步驟S610,透過使用者裝置之一導航模組取得一導航請求,其中導航請求包括一目標充電站位置。值得注意的是,在一些實施例中,導航模組可以包括一定位單元,其可以與至少一衛星通訊,以取得相應使用者裝置的目前位置,如經緯度座標。在一實施例中,相應使用者裝置的一使用者可以利用使用者裝置產生包括一目標充電站位置的導航請求以請求相應目標充電站的一導航作業,注意的是,目標充電站位置
可以是特定門牌號碼或特定地點,例如,具有電動車充電站的加油站、餐廳或如第2圖中所示的充電站點140等等,但本發明並不限於此。接著,如步驟S620,透過使用者裝置,相應於導航請求,取得相應電動車之一車輛資料、一車輛狀態資料與一電量狀態,依據電量狀態及車輛資料估算相應電動車之一剩餘電量並依據剩餘電量決定一電量安全值。在一些實施例中,相應電動車之車輛資料至少包括一電池容量資料,透過電池容量資料與當前電量狀態可以估算出電池的剩餘電量且可以設定電量安全值。舉例來說,在一些實施例中,電量安全值可以設定為剩餘電量的一既定比例,例如電量安全值可設為剩餘電池電量的百分之八十或九十,但本發明並未限定於此。明確來說,在此實施例中,各電動車可以在其行駛期間透過網路或其對應的使用者裝置週期性地(例如:每分鐘一次或每30秒一次)傳送其車輛狀態及電量狀態等資訊,如位置、時間、里程數及電池用電量等至伺服器,而伺服器可以透過網路接收所有電動車或其對應使用者裝置傳送之前述各項資料,例如前述車輛狀態資料及電量狀態、車輛型號、車重、車子在不同交通、道路地形及相應位置、路況、時間等等,並據此計算出各電動車在各種條件下的單位時間內的行駛距離及/或電池電量使用情形,經由一特定演算法(例如:透過人工智慧演算法或機器學習演算法)訓練並統計分析後即可得到每一款車在不同路徑、不同時間、不同路況下更為精確的單位耗電量,並據此產生對應的耗電量資訊。舉例來說,在一實施例中,單位耗電量的單位可表示為每公里所消耗的電量瓦數(W/km),但本發明並未限定於此。在一些實施例中,車輛狀態資料可以包括相應電動車之一車重狀態且使用者裝置持續取得相應電動車之車輛資料、相應電動車之車重狀態並利用網路連接單元透過網路傳送相應電動車之車輛資料及相應電動車之車重狀態至伺服器。值得注意的是,電量安全值的設定與單位耗電量係隨著不同的相應電動車之車重狀態而改變,車重愈重,電量安全值設得愈低且單位耗電量愈大。接著,如步驟S630,透過網路由伺服器取得相應一目前位置與目標充電站之間之複數候選路徑之複數耗電量資訊。注意的是,伺服器可以接收來自一使用者裝置的相應於一路徑查詢請求,其中路徑查詢請求至少包括相應導航請求的目前位置與目標充電站位置並依據路徑查詢請求提供相應的耗電量資訊至使用者裝置以進行後續處理。如前
述,伺服器可以包括一資料庫,其記錄每一車輛型號在不同路段之耗電量資訊。換言之,可以依據一特定電動車之一車輛資料如特定電動車之車輛廠牌與車輛型號透過資料庫取得相應之耗電量資訊。如步驟S640,透過使用者裝置,依據各候選路徑之耗電量資訊由候選路徑中選擇一者並依據選定之候選路徑進行相應目標充電站位置之一導航作業,其中電動車經由選定之候選路徑到達目標充電站所需之一總耗電量係低於電量安全值。其中,候選路徑表示現在位置與目標充電站位置兩點之間任何可能的行進路徑。舉例來說,在一些實施例中,候選路徑至少包括相應現在位置與目標充電站位置之間的一最短路徑、一最快路徑以及一最小耗電量路徑等,但本發明並不限於此。換言之,使用者裝置可以分別估算出在當前條件下各候選路徑所需的總耗電量,並且判斷哪些候選路徑所需之總耗電量係低於電量安全值,並從中選擇一者作為導航路徑。由於這些候選路徑的總耗電量都在電量安全值之下,因此可以確保在既有的電量條件下,電動車經由選定之候選路徑可以有足夠電量到達目標充電站,減少使用者的缺電焦慮。

第7圖顯示依據本發明另一實施例之電動車充電之路徑規劃方法。依據本發明實施例之電動車充電之路徑規劃方法適用於一使用者裝置與一伺服器。在此實施例中,使用者裝置可以透過耗電量資訊估算所有候選路徑之總耗電量,並優先以候選路徑中之總耗電量最小者為選定之候選路徑。 FIG. 7 shows a route planning method for electric vehicle charging according to another embodiment of the present invention. The route planning method for electric vehicle charging according to the embodiment of the present invention is applicable to a user device and a server. In this embodiment, the user device can estimate the total power consumption of all candidate paths through the power consumption information, and preferentially select the candidate path with the smallest total power consumption among the candidate paths.
首先,如步驟S710,相應於導航請求,使用者裝置透過網路由伺服器取得相應使用者裝置的目前位置與目標充電站之間之複數候選路徑之複數耗電量資訊。注意的是,每一耗電量資訊可以包括至少一特定路段之單位耗電量,其中單位耗電量表示電動車在單位時間內相應於特定路段的行駛距離及/或電池用電量。在此實施例中,使用者裝置可以依據先前取得的相應電動車之車輛資料、車輛狀態資料與電量狀態等參數條件,決定電量安全值並依據前述參數條件透過網路至伺服器取得相應使用者裝置的目前位置與目標充電站之間之複數候選路徑之複數耗電量資訊。舉例來說,在一實施例中,使用者裝置可以取得電動車當前的車輛型號、當前時間、當前位置及當前電池電量。如步驟S720,透過使用者裝置,依據每一候選路徑之耗電量資訊,計算各候選路徑所對應之一總耗電量。在一些 實施例中,一特定候選路徑可以包括多個特定道路區段,使用者裝置可以取得各特定道路區段的耗電量資訊以估算各特定道路區段的個別耗電量,之後再將特定候選路徑的所有特定道路區段的個別耗電量進行加總便可估算出特定候選路徑的總耗電量。在一些實施例中,伺服器係依據一目前時間、相應電動車之車輛資料、相應電動車之車重狀態、相應候選路徑之道路地形資料計算出相應電動車於一特定路段之一單位耗電量並利用計算出之特定路段之單位耗電量產生相應之耗電量資訊,其中單位耗電量表示電動車在單位時間內的行駛距離及/或電池用電量。舉例來說,當候選路徑A包括道路區段A1、A2及A3時,使用者裝置可以分別取得道路區段A1、A2及A3的耗電量資訊估算出道路區段A1、A2及A3所對應的個別耗電量E1、E2及E3,則候選路徑A的總耗電量E=E1+E2+E3。當計算出各候選路徑所對應之總耗電量之後,如步驟S730,使用者裝置依據每一候選路徑之總耗電量,決定所有總耗電中之一最小耗電量,並如步驟S740,以最小總耗電量所對應之候選路徑為導航路徑進行導航作業。提醒的是,最小總耗電量所對應之候選路徑即為最省電路徑。換言之,電動車經由選定之最省電路徑可以以最省電的方式到達目標充電站。 First, in step S710 , in response to the navigation request, the user device obtains the plurality of power consumption information of the plurality of candidate routes between the current location of the corresponding user device and the target charging station from the server through the network. It should be noted that each power consumption information may include the unit power consumption of at least one specific road section, wherein the unit power consumption represents the driving distance and/or battery power consumption of the electric vehicle corresponding to the specific road section within a unit time. In this embodiment, the user device can determine the power safety value according to the parameter conditions such as the vehicle data, vehicle status data, and battery status of the corresponding electric vehicle obtained previously, and obtain the corresponding user information from the server through the network according to the aforementioned parameter conditions. Multiple power consumption information of multiple candidate paths between the current location of the device and the target charging station. For example, in one embodiment, the user device can obtain the current vehicle model, current time, current location and current battery level of the electric vehicle. In step S720, a total power consumption corresponding to each candidate path is calculated through the user device according to the power consumption information of each candidate path. in some In an embodiment, a specific candidate route may include a plurality of specific road sections, and the user device may obtain the power consumption information of each specific road section to estimate the individual power consumption of each specific road section, and then select the specific candidate route The total electricity consumption for a particular candidate route can be estimated by summing the individual electricity consumption for all specific road segments of the route. In some embodiments, the server calculates the unit power consumption of the corresponding electric vehicle on a specific road section based on the current time, the vehicle data of the corresponding electric vehicle, the vehicle weight status of the corresponding electric vehicle, and the road terrain data of the corresponding candidate route and use the calculated unit power consumption of a specific road section to generate corresponding power consumption information, where the unit power consumption represents the driving distance and/or battery power consumption of the electric vehicle in a unit time. For example, when the candidate route A includes road sections A1, A2, and A3, the user device can respectively obtain the power consumption information of the road sections A1, A2, and A3 to estimate the corresponding road sections A1, A2, and A3. The individual power consumption E1, E2 and E3 of the candidate path A, then the total power consumption E=E1+E2+E3 of the candidate path A. After calculating the total power consumption corresponding to each candidate path, as in step S730, the user device determines one of the minimum power consumption among all total power consumptions according to the total power consumption of each candidate path, and proceeds as in step S740 , using the candidate path corresponding to the minimum total power consumption as the navigation path to perform the navigation operation. It is reminded that the candidate path corresponding to the minimum total power consumption is the most power-saving path. In other words, the electric vehicle can reach the target charging station in the most energy-saving manner via the selected most energy-saving route.
在一些實施例中,候選路徑可以包括依據目前位置以及目標充電站位置決定之與目的充電站距離最短之一最短路徑,且使用者裝置可以更依據自伺服器取得之耗電量資訊估算相應最短路徑之一第一總耗電量,判斷第一總耗電量是否低於電量安全值,當第一總耗電量係低於電量安全值時,使用者裝置以最短路徑作為選定之候選路徑進行導航作業。換言之,在此實施例中,當最短路徑的總耗電量低於電量安全值時,表示選定最短路徑仍可以在電動車的既有電量條件下有足夠的電量安全到達目標充電站,因此可以優先選擇具有最小距離成本的最短路徑作為導航路徑。 In some embodiments, the candidate route may include the shortest route with the shortest distance to the target charging station determined based on the current location and the location of the target charging station, and the user device may further estimate the corresponding shortest path based on the power consumption information obtained from the server. One of the paths, the first total power consumption, determines whether the first total power consumption is lower than the safety value of power, and when the first total power consumption is lower than the safety value of power, the user device uses the shortest path as the selected candidate path Do navigation work. In other words, in this embodiment, when the total power consumption of the shortest path is lower than the power safety value, it means that the selected shortest path can still safely reach the target charging station with enough power under the existing power condition of the electric vehicle, so it can be The shortest path with the smallest distance cost is preferred as the navigation path.
在一些實施例中,候選路徑可以包括依據目前位置以及目標充電站位置決定之可在最短時間到達目的充電站之一最快路徑,且使用者裝置可以更依據自伺服器取得之耗電量資訊計算相應最快路徑之一第二總耗電量,判斷第二總耗電量是否低於電量安全值,當第二總耗電量低於電量安全值時,以最快路徑作為選定之候選路徑進行導航作業。換言之,在此實施例中,當最快路徑的總耗電量低於電量安全值時,表示選定最快 路徑仍可以在電動車的既有電量條件下有足夠的電量安全到達目標充電站,因此可以優先選擇具有最小時間成本的最快路徑作為導航路徑。 In some embodiments, the candidate route may include one of the fastest routes that can reach the target charging station in the shortest time determined according to the current location and the location of the target charging station, and the user device may further rely on the power consumption information obtained from the server Calculate the second total power consumption of one of the corresponding fastest paths, and judge whether the second total power consumption is lower than the power safety value. When the second total power consumption is lower than the power safety value, use the fastest path as the candidate for selection path for navigation. In other words, in this embodiment, when the total power consumption of the fastest path is lower than the power safety value, it means that the fastest path is selected. The route can still reach the target charging station safely with enough power under the existing power condition of the electric vehicle, so the fastest route with the minimum time cost can be preferentially selected as the navigation route.
在一些實施例中,車輛狀態資料包括相應電動車之一車重狀態且處理單元持續取得相應電動車之目前時間、位置、車輛資料、相應電動車之車重狀態並利用網路連接單元透過網路傳送相應電動車之車輛資料及相應電動車之車重狀態至伺服器。在一實施例中,使用者裝置可以透過一重量感測單元取得前述相應電動車之車重狀態。在一些實施例中,伺服器係依據目前時間、位置、相應電動車之車輛資料、相應電動車之車重狀態、相應候選路徑之道路地形資料計算出相應電動車於一特定路段之一單位耗電量並利用計算出之特定路段之單位耗電量產生相應之耗電量資訊,其中單位耗電量表示電動車在單位時間內的行駛距離及/或電池用電量。 In some embodiments, the vehicle status data includes the vehicle weight status of the corresponding electric vehicle, and the processing unit continuously obtains the current time, location, vehicle data, and vehicle weight status of the corresponding electric vehicle, and uses the network connection unit to communicate through the network. Send the vehicle information of the corresponding electric vehicle and the vehicle weight status of the corresponding electric vehicle to the server. In one embodiment, the user device can obtain the vehicle weight status of the aforementioned corresponding electric vehicle through a weight sensing unit. In some embodiments, the server calculates the unit consumption of the corresponding electric vehicle on a specific road section based on the current time, location, vehicle information of the corresponding electric vehicle, vehicle weight status of the corresponding electric vehicle, and road terrain data of the corresponding candidate route. Electricity and use the calculated unit power consumption of a specific road section to generate corresponding power consumption information, where the unit power consumption represents the driving distance and/or battery power consumption of the electric vehicle in a unit time.
在一些實施例中,伺服器可以更依據目前時間及選定之候選路徑計算抵達目標電動車充電站位置的一預計到達時間並依據預計到達時間設定一寬限期間,且致使在寬限期間目標電動車充電站僅能接受特定電動車之一特定使用者之確認,以對於電動車進行充電,且在寬限期間之後目標充電站能夠接受任何電動車之充電要求。換言之,在相應預計到達時間的一段寬限期間內,目標電動車充電站將保留給特定電動車進行使用,例如將寬限期間內的電動車充電站的狀態設為已使用或不可使用狀態,只允許特定電動車使用,因此特定電動車有目標電動車充電站的優先使用權,其他的電動車輛無法占用。當寬限期間過後,其他的電動車輛便可具有電動車充電站的使用權。舉例來說,假設特定電動車的預計到達時間約為下午兩點且寬限期間設為十五分鐘,當第二電動車輛於下午兩點十五分之前抵達目標電動車充電站且伺服器接收到特定電動車輛之特定使用者之確認時,目標電動車充電站開始對特定電動車輛進行充電。相反地,當特定電動車並未於下午兩點十五分抵達目標電動車充電站時,伺服器便可取消特定電動車之特定使用者對目標電動車充電站的充電保留作業,例如將目標電動車充電站的狀態重置為可使用狀態,因此其他電動車輛的使用者便可提出充電要求以使用此特定電動車充電站進行充電。 In some embodiments, the server can calculate an estimated time of arrival at the location of the target electric vehicle charging station based on the current time and the selected candidate route, and set a grace period according to the estimated time of arrival, and cause the target electric vehicle to be charged during the grace period The station can only accept the confirmation of a specific user of a specific electric vehicle to charge the electric vehicle, and the target charging station can accept the charging request of any electric vehicle after the grace period. In other words, within a grace period corresponding to the expected arrival time, the target electric vehicle charging station will be reserved for use by specific electric vehicles. Specific electric vehicles are used, so specific electric vehicles have priority to use the target electric vehicle charging station, and other electric vehicles cannot occupy it. After the grace period, other electric vehicles can have the right to use the electric vehicle charging station. For example, assuming that the estimated arrival time of a specific electric vehicle is about 2:00 p.m. and the grace period is set to fifteen minutes, when the second electric vehicle arrives at the target electric vehicle charging station before 2:15 p.m. and the server receives When the specific user of the specific electric vehicle is confirmed, the target electric vehicle charging station starts to charge the specific electric vehicle. Conversely, when the specific electric vehicle does not arrive at the target electric vehicle charging station at 2:15 p.m., the server can cancel the specific user of the specific electric vehicle's charging reservation operation for the target electric vehicle charging station, for example, the target electric vehicle charging station The status of the EV charging station is reset to Available, so users of other EVs can request to use this specific EV charging station for charging.
在一些實施例中,考量目標電動車充電站與相應電動車的特定使用者所在位置之間的交通狀態及路況可能影響使用者真正到達電動 車充電站的時間,使用者裝置可以取得相應目前位置與目標充電站間之一交通狀態,並依據交通狀態以及候選路徑之耗電量資訊由候選路徑中選擇一者並依據選定之候選路徑進行相應目標充電站位置之導航作業。舉例來說,當所有候選路徑的交通狀態顯示為不雍塞時,使用者裝置依據候選路徑之耗電量資訊由候選路徑中選擇總耗電最小的候選路徑進行相應目標充電站位置之導航作業,而當特定候選路徑的交通狀態顯示為雍塞時,使用者裝置過濾掉較雍塞的特定候選路徑而從剩餘的其他候選路徑中選擇總耗電最小的候選路徑進行相應目標充電站位置之導航作業,避免因交通狀態致使使用者的電動車耗電超過預期而無法到達目標電動車充電站。 In some embodiments, considering the traffic status and road conditions between the target electric vehicle charging station and the location of the specific user of the corresponding electric vehicle may affect the user's actual arrival at the electric vehicle. The time of the car charging station, the user device can obtain a traffic status between the corresponding current location and the target charging station, and select one of the candidate routes according to the traffic status and the power consumption information of the candidate route, and proceed according to the selected candidate route Navigation operation of the corresponding target charging station location. For example, when the traffic status of all the candidate routes shows that it is not congested, the user device selects the candidate route with the lowest total power consumption from the candidate routes according to the power consumption information of the candidate routes to carry out the navigation operation of the corresponding target charging station location , and when the traffic status of a specific candidate route is shown to be congested, the user device filters out the specific candidate route that is more congested and selects the candidate route with the smallest total power consumption from the remaining candidate routes for the location of the corresponding target charging station. Navigation operation, avoiding the failure to reach the target electric vehicle charging station due to the traffic conditions causing the user's electric vehicle to consume more power than expected.
因此,透過本案之電動車充電之路徑規劃系統及方法可以在規畫導航路徑時依據電動車的車輛相關資料與車輛狀態、既有電量條件及各相關路段的用電量估算資料、交通狀態及道路地形來決定適合的路線,以規劃出省電優先的路徑來進行導航作業,進而可以確保在既有電量條件下可以以省電的方式安全到達目的地或充電站,減少使用者之缺電焦慮,提供適用於電動車的路徑規劃服務,從而提供使用者良好的使用體驗。 Therefore, the path planning system and method for electric vehicle charging in this case can plan the navigation route based on the vehicle-related data and vehicle status of the electric vehicle, existing power conditions, power consumption estimation data of each relevant road section, traffic status and The road terrain is used to determine the appropriate route, and to plan a power-saving priority route for navigation operations, thereby ensuring that the destination or charging station can be safely reached in a power-saving manner under existing power conditions, reducing the user's power shortage Anxiety, providing route planning services suitable for electric vehicles, so as to provide users with a good experience.
