Vehicle position detection device and parameter set creation device for vehicle position detection

Abstract

It is possible to reduce inadvertent vehicle behavior during autonomous driving. A vehicle position detection device includes: a satellite positioning position calculation unit 15 that receives a satellite positioning position signal of a vehicle and calculates a satellite positioning position of the vehicle; an autonomous navigation position calculation unit 16 that receives an autonomous navigation position signal of the vehicle and calculates an autonomous navigation position of the vehicle; a distance calculation unit 17 that calculates a positional difference between the satellite positioning position and the autonomous navigation position; a recording unit that stores a plurality of parameter sets in which a plurality of thresholds for allowing a positional difference for each speed of the vehicle are set per vehicle characteristic; a selection unit 14 that selects a parameter set according to the vehicle characteristic from a plurality of parameter sets 11 to 13 stored in the recording unit; and a determination unit 18 that outputs the satellite positioning position when the positional difference is within the threshold, and outputs the autonomous navigation position when the positional difference is out of the threshold.
