Abstract

This paper mainly focuses on the algorithms related to local path planning and path tracking control of unmanned vehicles in the process of obstacle avoidance. By introducing the temporal dimension as a reference, the perceptual results are projected onto the 3D spatio-temporal navigation map by combining the multi-target behavior prediction and other means; by increasing the temporal dimension, the static obstacles and dynamic obstacles are unified into the same parameter space. Under this parameter space, the front-end A* path search initializes the unified B spline curve control points, designs the trajectory cost function and performs nonlinear optimization to generate a spatio-temporal trajectory that satisfies the safety collision-free and vehicle motion constraints (speed and acceleration limits), thus transforming the decision and planning problem under the two-dimensional fence dynamic physical space into a static scene decision and planning problem under the three-dimensional spatio-temporal space. Through simulation verification, the whole process of the proposed trajectory planning method takes 51.27ms on average, which meets the driving requirements of driverless cars. In addition, by adjusting the search conditions of the A* algorithm, its overall planning efficiency is improved by 27.86% compared with the search speed of the traditional algorithm. The actual feeling and data results from the real vehicle experiments show its good tracking effect, which verifies the effectiveness and practicality of the algorithm proposed in this paper.
