METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AUTOMATICALLY PLATTING THE POSITION ABORD A RADAR EQUIPPED VEHICLE

摘要

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method of item automatically on a vehicle, using the information provided by the vehicle radar equipment; during a preparatory phase, in digital form is recorded in a memory, the location information of some remar-markable marks their radar, to form a list or digital map pins covering the regions where we want to louse-view automatically take stock; when the vehicle is in one of said regions, one sequentially carries out the following operations: is carried out, to the estimated current location of the vehicle, position calculations thereof with respect to certain of said recorded radar pins; As to the angular scanning radar is carried out for the actual current vehicle of similar radar measurements of vehicle position relative to actual radar marks corresponda nt to regis-trés radar benchmarks used for calculations; Comparing said calculations and said the vehicle location and radar measurements of this comparison, we deduce the exact current location of the vehicle; the device for carrying out the method comprises, in addition to the radar equipment, a computer provided with a memory, said positive esteem, a gyrometer, a point holding device and an interface device placed between the radar equipment and the computer and for the sampling of obser-vation windows.
