Path Planning Method, Server, and Vehicle - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240133706 titled 'Path Planning Method, Server, and Vehicle
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a path planning method that involves a server determining planning time information for a vehicle to travel on different road segments, ensuring that the total quantity of vehicles on each segment does not exceed the capacity of the road. The server then sends path information to the vehicle, including details about the road segments and planning time information.
- Path planning method with server assistance:
* Server obtains first path from current location to task destination * Determines planning time information for each road segment * Ensures total quantity of vehicles on each segment does not exceed capacity * Sends path information to vehicle with details about road segments and planning time information
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in autonomous vehicle navigation systems, logistics and transportation management, and smart city infrastructure planning.
Problems Solved
1. Efficient path planning to avoid congestion and optimize travel time 2. Ensuring road segments are not overloaded with vehicles, improving traffic flow
Benefits
1. Reduced travel time and fuel consumption for vehicles 2. Improved traffic flow and reduced congestion on roads 3. Enhanced safety by preventing road segment overloading
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing delivery routes for logistics companies, integrating into smart city transportation systems, and enhancing navigation systems in autonomous vehicles.
Possible Prior Art
There are existing path planning algorithms and systems used in transportation management and navigation apps that optimize routes based on traffic conditions and road capacities.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology handle dynamic changes in traffic conditions?
The patent application does not specify how the system adapts to sudden changes in traffic flow or road conditions.
What measures are in place to protect the privacy and security of the data transmitted between the server and the vehicle?
The patent application does not address the security protocols or encryption methods used to safeguard the communication between the server and the vehicle.
Original Abstract Submitted
a path planning method includes a server that obtains a first path. the first path is from a current location of the vehicle to a task destination. the first path includes one or more segments of roads. the server determines planning time information for the vehicle to travel on each of the one or more segments of roads. when the vehicle travels based on the planning time information on each segment of road, a total quantity of vehicles on each segment of road is less than or equal to a capacity of each segment of road. the server sends path information to the vehicle. the path information includes information about at least one of the one or more segments of roads and planning time information for the vehicle to travel on the at least one segment of road.
