Method and apparatus for assisting right turn of vehicle based on uwb communication and v2x communication at intersection

Abstract

A method and an apparatus for assisting right turn of a vehicle based on UWB communication and V2X communication at an intersection are disclosed. The right-turn assisting apparatus comprises a communication unit including a first communication module configured to receive map information and signal information from a road side unit through a first communication protocol, and a second communication module configured to estimate positions of candidate terminals among terminals of pedestrians around the intersection through a second communication protocol. The right-turn assisting apparatus comprises a controller configured to determine a risk of collision between a terminal of interest among the candidate terminals and the vehicle based on the positions of the candidate terminals, the map information, and the signal information in response to determination of at least one of whether the vehicle is approaching the intersection or whether the vehicle has a turning intention, and to warn of the risk of collision with the terminal of interest.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
