Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Positionsbestimmungssystem für Kraftfahrzeuge (DE 39 25 057 A1).The invention relates to a position determination system for Motor vehicles (DE 39 25 057 A1).

Navigationssysteme für nicht spurgebundene Fahrzeuge wie Kraftfahrzeuge sind aus der DE 39 25 057 A1 bekannt. Das dort als "Travelpilot" bezeichnete Gerät umfaßt eine autonome, mit Koppelortung ar­ beitende Navigationseinrichtung, gespeicherte Straßenpläne sowie einen Navigationsrechner.Navigation systems for non-track vehicles such as Motor vehicles are known from DE 39 25 057 A1. That as a "travel pilot" designated device includes an autonomous, with coupling location ar processing navigation device, stored street maps as well as a navigation computer.

Das Fahrzeug verfügt dabei über eine Antenne und einen Empfän­ ger, der die Satellitensignale des sogenannten "Global Posi­ tioning System" empfängt und an einen Navigationsrechner wei­ terleitet, der die jeweils ermittelte Fahrzeugposition mit einer in einem Datenspeicher gespeicherten digitalen Landkarte vergleicht.The vehicle has an antenna and a receiver ger, which the satellite signals of the so-called "Global Posi tioning system "and receives a navigation computer who forwards the vehicle position determined in each case a digital map stored in a data memory compares.

Bei dem bekannten Satelliten-Navigationssystem können auch relativistische Einflußgrößen berücksichtigt werden, so daß hierbei eine, Positionsbestimmung mit einer Genauigkeit von wenigen Metern möglich ist.In the known satellite navigation system can also relativistic factors are taken into account, so that a position determination with an accuracy of a few meters is possible.

Die jeweils ermittelte Position des Fahrzeuges wird den Fahr­ zeuginsassen bei Bedarf über akustische oder optische Informa­ tionsträger angegeben, so daß der Fahrzeugführer in die Lage versetzt wird, das zuvor einprogrammierte Reiseziel auf kürze­ stem Wege zu erreichen. The determined position of the vehicle becomes the driving if necessary, witness occupants via acoustic or visual information tion carrier specified so that the driver in the position will be relocated to the previously programmed travel destination shortly ways to achieve.  

Damit das bekannte Navigationssystem auch dann noch funktions­ fähig ist, wenn die entsprechenden Satellitensignale bei­ spielsweise im Funkschatten von Tunnels, Häusern oder der­ gleichen nicht empfangen werden können, ist der Navigations­ rechner alternativ auch mit einem fahrzeugseitigen Positions­ bestimmungssystem verbunden, das einen Kompaß und Bewegungs­ sensoren umfaßt, die im Radbereich angeordnet sind. Durch dieses alternative Positionsbestimmungssystem wird eine zweite Datenmenge zur Bearbeitung durch den Navigationsrechner gelie­ fert, durch die zumindest kurzfristig ein Ausfall der Satelli­ tensignale überbrückt werden kann.So that the well-known navigation system is still functional capable if the corresponding satellite signals at for example in the radio shadow of tunnels, houses or the the same cannot be received is the navigation alternatively also with a vehicle-side position determination system connected that a compass and movement Includes sensors which are arranged in the wheel area. By this alternative positioning system becomes a second Amount of data for processing by the navigation computer finished, due to the failure of the Satelli, at least in the short term tens signals can be bridged.

Ausgehend von diesem Positionsbestimmungssystem wird in der DE 39 25 057 A1 vorgeschlagen, im Navigationssystem zusätzliche, im Straßenplan angeordnete Auslösepunkte zu speichern, deren Lage dem Fahrer bei Annäherung signalisiert wird. Derartige Aus­ lösepunkte können z. B. Haltestellen oder Sehenswürdigkeiten sein.Based on this position determination system, DE 39 25 057 A1 proposed additional in the navigation system Street map arranged trigger points to save their location is signaled to the driver when approaching. Such out solution points can e.g. B. stops or sights be.

Ein weiteres Navigationssystem ist aus der DE 43 27 780 A1 be­ kannt. Bei diesem System werden zusätzliche Fahrstrecken-In­ formationen über durchfahrene Kreuzungen erfaßt, wodurch Feh­ ler in der ermittelten und angezeigten aktuellen Position vermindert werden sollen.Another navigation system is known from DE 43 27 780 A1 knows. With this system, additional route in Formations over intersections traversed, whereby Feh in the determined and displayed current position should be reduced.

Mit den beschriebenen Navigationssystemen bzw. den im Rechner gespeicherten Daten ist es bisher jedoch nicht möglich, Infor­ mationen darüber zu erhalten, ob sich das Fahrzeug einer mobi­ len oder fest installierten Verkehrsüberwachungseinrichtung nähert. Zu diesem Zweck werden bisher sogenannte Radarwarner eingesetzt, die z. B. Radarstrahlen von Geschwindigkeits-Über­ wachungseinrichtungen erfassen und eine entsprechende Meldung an den Fahrzeugführer geben. Die Verwendung derartiger Warnge­ räte ist jedoch in bestimmten Ländern verboten, obwohl es durchaus wünschenswert wäre, wenn der Fahrer rechtzeitig einen entsprechenden Hinweis erhalten würde.With the described navigation systems or in the computer However, it is not yet possible to save stored data, Infor mations about whether the vehicle is a mobi len or permanently installed traffic monitoring device is approaching. So-called radar detectors have so far been used for this purpose used the z. B. Radar beams from speed-over monitor security devices and a corresponding message give to the driver. The use of such warnings counseling is prohibited in certain countries, though it would be very desirable if the driver got one in time would receive appropriate notice.

Es kommt nämlich, selbst dann, wenn der Fahrer die vor­ geschriebene Geschwindigkeit einhält, beim plötzlichen Anblick einer Überwachungskamera oder eines Geschwindigkeitsmeßgerätes oft zu einer spontanen Vollbremsung, wodurch der Fahrer sich selber, die Fahrzeuginsassen und auch den nachfolgenden Ver­ kehr gefährdet.It happens, even if the driver does that  adheres to written speed when suddenly sighted a surveillance camera or a speedometer often to a sudden emergency stop, which causes the driver itself, the vehicle occupants and also the following Ver return endangered.

Dadurch wird der Zweck der Überwachungseinrichtungen, den Verkehrsteilnehmer z. B. durch Einhalten der vorgeschriebenen Geschwindigkeit oder verkehrsangepaßtes Fahren in besonders gefährdeten Bereichen vor Unfällen zu schützen, häufig ver­ fehlt.This is the purpose of the monitoring equipment, the Road users z. B. by complying with the prescribed Speed or traffic adapted driving in particular to protect areas at risk from accidents, often ver is missing.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Positionsbestim­ mungssystem zu schaffen, das den Kraftfahrer rechtzeitig bei der Annäherung an Verkehrsüberwachungseinrichtungen auf deren Vorhandensein aufmerksam macht.The object of the invention is to determine a position to create a system that helps drivers in time the approach to traffic monitoring facilities on their Presence.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die im Patentanspruch 1 aufgeführten Merkmale gelöst.This object is achieved by the claim 1 listed features solved.

Um diese Daten, beispielsweise die Positionen von kameraüber­ wachten Ampeln, Induktionsschleifen oder Radarmeßgeräten zur Verfügung stellen zu können, ist ein Datenspeicher in Form einer CD-ROM, einer Diskette oder dergleichen vorgesehen. Diese Daten können beispielsweise mittels eines CD-ROM-Lauf­ werkes abgefragt werden und, nach dem Vergleich der vom Rechner ermittelten Position mit den gespeicherten Positions­ daten der Überwachungsgeräte, optisch und/oder akustisch ange­ zeigt werden.This data, for example the positions of camera over monitored traffic lights, induction loops or radar measuring devices To be able to make available is a data storage in the form a CD-ROM, a floppy disk or the like. This data can, for example, by means of a CD-ROM run works are queried and, after comparing the from Computer determined position with the stored positions data of the monitoring devices, optically and / or acoustically be shown.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen System kann der Datenspeicher dar­ über hinaus einen Teilspeicher aufweisen, der über Funksignale programmiert werden kann.In the system according to the invention, the data memory can represent also have a partial memory that uses radio signals can be programmed.

Dadurch gelingt auch die Verfügbarmachung der Standorte von mobilen Verkehrsüberwachungseinrichtungen, deren Standort durch aufmerksame Autofahrer telefonisch beispielsweise Ver­ kehrsfunksendern bekanntgegeben wird. Diese können die ent­ sprechenden Daten mit Hilfe bestimmter Funkcodes direkt in den Speicher des Rechners eingeben.This also makes the locations of mobile traffic monitoring devices, their location by attentive drivers, e.g. Ver traffic radio stations is announced. This can ent  speaking data using specific radio codes directly in the Enter the memory of the computer.

Die Information, daß sich das Fahrzeug einer Verkehrsüberwa­ chungseinrichtung nähert, wird, wie bereits erwähnt, vorzugs­ weise mit Hilfe einer optischen oder akustischen Meldeein­ richtung weitergegeben, so daß sich der Fahrzeugführer recht­ zeitig durch Anpassung seiner Fahrweise auf das Vorhandensein derartiger Einrichtungen einstellen kann.The information that the vehicle is under traffic surveillance approaching device is preferred, as already mentioned wise with the help of an optical or acoustic message direction passed so that the driver is right  early by adapting his driving style to the presence can set such facilities.

Die Verwendung des erfindungsgemäßen Systems verstößt zumin­ dest in Deutschland und anderen westeuropäischen Ländern nicht gegen einschlägige Vorschriften, da vom Fahrzeug selber keine Funksignale ausgesendet werden. Der Einsatz der nicht zugelas­ senen bisher üblichen Warngeräte wird dadurch überflüssig.The use of the system according to the invention at least violates at least not in Germany and other Western European countries against relevant regulations, since none of the vehicle itself Radio signals are sent out. The use of not approved The warning devices that were previously used are no longer necessary.

Die Funktionsweise des erfindungsgemäßen Positionsbestimmungs-Systems wird anhand des folgenden Ablaufdiagrammes beispiels­ weise veranschaulicht und im einzelnen erläutert.The operation of the position determination system according to the invention is based on the following flow chart illustrated and explained in detail.

Bei Inbetriebnahme des Fahrzeuges wird zunächst der Rechner eingeschaltet, der z. B. mittels der satellitenseitigen Signa­ le eine Positionsbestimmung des aktuellen Standortes des Fahr­ zeuges vornimmt. Anschließend werden die Positionskoordinaten der Verkehrsüberwachungseinrichtungen z. B. mittels eines CD-ROM-Laufwerkes oder des funkprogrammierbaren Teilspeichers eingelesen und mit dem berechneten Positionskoordinaten des Fahrzeuges verglichen. Dieser Abgleich wird beim Fortbewegen des Fahrzeuges ständig aktualisiert, so daß bei einer Annä­ herung des Fahrzeuges an eine gespeicherte Verkehrsüberwa­ chungseinrichtung eine optisch und/oder akustische Meldung an den Fahrzeugführer erfolgen kann.When the vehicle is started up, the computer is first activated turned on, the z. B. by means of the satellite-side Signa le a position determination of the current location of the driver is doing stuff. Then the position coordinates the traffic monitoring devices z. B. by means of a CD-ROM drive or the radio programmable partial memory read in and with the calculated position coordinates of the Compared vehicle. This comparison is made when moving the vehicle is constantly updated, so that at an Annä the vehicle to a stored traffic monitor an optical and / or acoustic message can be done by the driver.

Die bekannten satellitengestützten Navigationssysteme können problemlos mit dem erfindungsgemäßen System kombiniert werden. The known satellite-based navigation systems can can be easily combined with the system according to the invention.
