Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A vehicle behavior estimation device includes: a storage unit configured to store a restriction condition at a point of a vehicle for which behavior is estimated; vehicle state data that includes position information and speed information of the vehicle; behavior parameters that include speed information and acceleration information of the vehicle; and physical restriction conditions that include an upper limit and a lower limit of the acceleration information; and a processor configured to obtain the vehicle state data by using the restriction condition at the point; calculate behavior parameters of a vehicle model that satisfy a physical restriction condition from the vehicle state data and the restriction condition at the point; update the vehicle state data of the vehicle model based on the behavior parameters; and repeat processing to calculate behavior parameters by using the updated vehicle state data and to update the vehicle state data.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A vehicle behavior estimation device comprising: a memory configured to store: a first restriction condition at a first point, the first restriction condition including a position, a time, and a speed at the first point of a vehicle; a second restriction condition at a second point different from the first point, the second restriction condition including a position, a time and a speed at the second point of the vehicle; and physical restriction condition…
