Abstract
An apparatus for controlling autonomous driving of a vehicle includes a processor to control autonomous driving, and a storage to store data and an algorithm to control the autonomous driving. The processor determines whether a target vehicle in front of a host vehicle in a travelling lane of the host vehicle is stopped, and performs a passing control when the target vehicle is stopped.
Claims17
An apparatus for controlling autonomous driving of a vehicle, the apparatus comprising:
- a processor configured to control autonomous driving;
- and
- a storage configured to store data and an algorithm to be executed by the processor to control the autonomous driving,
- wherein the processor is configured to:
- determine whether a target vehicle is stopped, where the target vehicle is in front of a host vehicle and travelling in a travelling lane of the host vehicle;
- when the target vehicle is stopped, further determine whether the target vehicle is temporarily stopped after a speed of the target vehicle is decreased, or whether the target vehicle has been already stopped since a time point at which the target vehicle is sensed by a sensor;
- when the target vehicle is temporarily stopped after the speed of the target vehicle is decreased, determine whether the target vehicle is stopped due to a traffic flow, temporarily stopped by a driver of the target vehicle, or parked;
- and
- perform a passing control based on determining whether the target vehicle is stopped due to the traffic flow, temporarily stopped by the driver, or parked.

A system comprising:
- a sensing device configured to sense a position of a host vehicle in a travelling lane and a target vehicle in front of the host vehicle;
- and
- a vehicle autonomous driving control apparatus configured to:
- determine whether the target vehicle is stopped, based on sensing information from the sensing device;
- when the target vehicle is stopped, further determine whether the target vehicle is temporarily stopped after a speed of the target vehicle is decreased, or whether the target vehicle has been already stopped since a time point at which the target vehicle is sensed by a sensor;
- when the target vehicle is temporarily stopped after the speed of the target vehicle is decreased, determine whether the target vehicle is stopped due to a traffic flow, temporarily stopped by a driver, or parked;
- and
- perform a passing control based on determining whether the target vehicle is stopped due to the traffic flow, temporarily stopped by the driver, or parked.
5 more elements
A method for controlling autonomous driving, the method comprising:
- determining, by a processor, whether a target vehicle is stopped, where the target vehicle is in front of a host vehicle and traveling in a travelling lane of the host vehicle,
- wherein determining whether the target vehicle is stopped includes:
- determining whether the target vehicle is temporarily stopped after a speed of the target vehicle is decreased, or whether the target vehicle has been already stopped since a time point at which the target vehicle is sensed by a sensor;
- in response to determining that the target vehicle is temporarily stopped after the speed of the target vehicle is decreased, determining, by the processor, whether the target vehicle is stopped due to a traffic flow, temporarily stopped by a driver, or parked;
- and
- performing, by the processor, a passing control based on determining whether the target vehicle is stopped due to the traffic flow, temporarily stopped by the driver, or parked.
