Method for determining the position of a motor vehicle, driving system, and motor vehicle

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for determining the position of a motor vehicle (1) comprising a driving system (2) which comprises at least one surroundings sensor system (3) and a filter system. Sensor-generated data is provided by the surroundings sensor system (3), and at least one object (9) is detected in the sensor-generated data. The at least one detected object (9) is used to generate a monitoring model which is then compared with a map of the surroundings, a comparison result being obtained therefrom. Furthermore, the presence of at least one special situation is checked. If no special situation is present, an estimated position (6) of the motor vehicle (1) is updated using the filter system on the basis of the comparison result. If a special situation is present, a weighting parameter is determined in order to modify the influence of the comparison result on the process of estimating the position, and the estimated position (6) of the motor vehicle (1) is updated using the filter system on the basis of the comparison result while applying the weighting parameter. The invention additionally relates to a driving system (2) which is designed to carry out the aforementioned method and to a motor vehicle (1) comprising such a driving system (2).
