Abstract:

Aiming at the parallel parking scenes for narrow parking space, a parking planning method based on curve combination and numerical optimization is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the parking process is reversed and divided into two stages: adjustment planning and berth entering planning. The adjustment planning is devised by establishing a constraint optimization model based on clothoid-arc combination, to guide the vehicle to adjust its position and posture in the berth to find the key points of leaving, while the berth entering planning is devised by setting up a constraint optimization model based on a clothoid-arc-line combination and a quintic polynomial to guide the vehicle to find the best parking point. Then, a simulation is carried out on different working conditions with Matlab to validate the adaptability of the algorithm. Finally, real vehicle test is conducted to verify the effectiveness of the planned path. The results of simulation and real vehicle test show that the parallel parking path planning method proposed can meet the parking requirements in a narrow parking space with strong adaptability.
