Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Accurate vehicle position and velocity information are necessary in managing merging at a highway junction, but existing sensors have both advantages and disadvantages. Roadside vehicle detectors are very accurate, but only available at fixed points. By contrast, in-vehicle sensors can be used anywhere except in tunnels, but are less accurate. In this paper, we propose a vehicle position estimation method that combines roadside vehicle detector information and in-vehicle sensor information registered in Dynamic Map. We perform the evaluation using a dataset created based on the actual vehicle information in the simulations. The simulation experiment results show that our method can more accurately estimate the vehicle positions compared to that using data from either sensor alone.
