Definitions
- the present invention relates to an bumping prevention system which is used, for instance, in the field of traffic signal control and prevents bumping between a vehicle running in a non-priority road and a vehicle running in a priority road at a crossing between the two roads by transacting signals with on-road infrastructure in a service area between fixed point information detection support facility for service-in installed at a point by a specified distance away from the crossing on the non-priority road and a fixed point information detection support facility for service-out installed at a point near the crossing.
- the bumping prevention system is a system for preventing bumping between a vehicle running on a non-priority road and a vehicle running on a priority road at a crossing between the two roads by transacting signals with on-road infrastructure in a service area between a fixed point information detection support facility for service-in installed at a point away by a specified distance from the crossing on the non-priority road and a fixed point information detection support facility for service-out installed at a position near the crossing, and when a vehicle passes by the fixed point detection support facility for service-in and enters the service area, the vehicle recognizes availability of providing information, alarms, and control for prevention of expected bumping at a crossing upon reception of a signal indicating entry into a service area from the support facilities, and starts computing of a position of the current by recognizing a distance between the current running position of the vehicle and a priority road.
- the system When the vehicle receives information concerning vehicles on a priority road from the on-road infrastructure and recognized that a vehicle just about to enter the crossing is present on the priority road, the system provides information concerning the crossing as well as the vehicle just about to enter the crossing at a point away by a distance enough to decelerate and stop the vehicle by the crossing, and further when it is determined that there is the possibility of collision between the vehicle running on the non-priority road and the vehicle running on the priority road and just about to enter the crossing, the system gives an alarm indicating the possibility of bumping to a driver of the vehicle running on the non-priority road. Further when it is expected that there is the possibility of bumping between the vehicle and another vehicle running on the priority road and entering the crossing, the system continuously provides controls for emergently decelerating or stopping the vehicle in front of the crossing.

- the vehicle When the vehicle stops in front of the crossing, the vehicle obtains information concerning vehicles on a priority road from the on-road infrastructure and if the vehicle recognizes presence of a pedestrian or a vehicle just about to enter the crossing on a priority road, information indicating presence of the pedestrian or vehicle is given to the driver.

- the system When the vehicle obtains information concerning vehicles on the priority road from the on-road infrastructure and recognizes that a vehicle just about to enter the crossing is present on the priority road, the system provides information concerning the crossing as well as presence of the vehicle just entering the crossing on the priority road to the driver at a point where the driver can decelerate and stop the vehicle in front of the crossing. Further when it is determined that there is the possibility of bumping with the vehicle just entering the crossing, this system gives an alarm indicating the possibility of bumping to the driver at a point where the driver can brake and stop the vehicle in an emergency in front of the crossing.
- the system continuously provides controls for support in braking in a range from a point where the driver can brake and stop the vehicle in front of the crossing up to a point just in front of the crossing.
- the system obtained information concerning vehicles on the priority road and gives to the driver information concerning the vehicle, if any.

- HMI Human Machine Interface
- Fig. 2 shows a crossing 9 (without any alarm) between a non-priority road 22 with a stop line 21 provided thereon and a priority road 23, and this figure shows an example in which a priority road with two lanes to which the present invention is applied and a non-priority road with one lane.
- Fig. 2 assumes that the fixed point information detection support facility 1 for service-in installed at a point P 1 away by a specified point (for instance, 40 m) from the crossing 9 can recognize a service-in point, a service-out point, an area length, and a type of available service.
- the AHS car 7 passes by the point P 1 and enters the service area 24, the AHS car recognizes availability of the service for providing information, alarms, and controls for prevention of bumping during access to the crossing 9, grasps a running position of the AHS car and a distance up to a priority road, and starts computing for a position of the AHS car.
- the AHS car 7 having reached the point P 1 activates the service for providing information, alarms, and controls for prevention of bumping and immediately start acquisition of the information concerning vehicles running on the priority road 23 from the on-road infrastructure.
- the information concerning vehicles on the priority road 23 is transmitted at a prespecified cycle (typically at a cycle of 0.1 second) through the road-to-vehicle communications facility 6.
- the AHS car 7 in the service area 24 continues to run and passes through the crossing 9, the AHS car 7 determines whether there is the possibility of collision of the AHS car with another vehicle 25 running on the priority road 23.
- Fig. 2 shows an example of determination on the possibility of collision of the AHS car with the vehicle 25 from the upstream side of the priority road 23 at the crossing 9.
- it is required only to check how the time zone in which the vehicle approaching the crossing 9 from the upstream side of the priority road 23 resides on the crossing overlaps with the time zone in which the AHS car 7 resides within the crossing 9. Namely, if the two time zones overlaps with each other, it is determined that there is the possibility of collision, and if the two time zones do not overlap with each other, it is determined that there is not the possibility of collision.
- the AHS car 7 can determine the possibility of collision by assuming a constant acceleration pattern (including a uniform velocity movement) and also assuming that the vehicle 25 approaching from the upstream side of the priority road 23 to the crossing continues to run at the current velocity measured at the current point detected by the vehicle detection facility 3.
- an alarm is generated, and at the same time controls are provided to control running of the vehicle with the vehicle control unit 18.
- the AHS car receives information concerning vehicles just about to enter the crossing.
