Abstract

Disclosed is a method for transmitting a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) message by a V2X communication device of a vehicle. The method for transmitting a V2X message by a V2X communication device of a vehicle comprises the steps of detecting a lane change of a target vehicle followed by the subject vehicle; setting a CACC mode on the basis of a preset operation determination for a lane change when the lane change of the target vehicle is detected; and transmitting a V2X message including information on the set CACC mode, wherein the CACC mode includes a single-lane CACC mode for providing a single-lane CACC service and a multi-lane CACC mode for providing a multi-lane CACC service.

Claims (35)

1. A method of transmitting, by a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication device of a subject vehicle, a V2X message, the method comprising:

detecting a lane change of a target vehicle followed by the subject vehicle;

upon detecting the lane change of the target vehicle, setting a CACC mode based on a preset operation decision on the lane change; and

transmitting the V2X message including information for the set CACC mode, wherein the CACC mode includes a single lane CACC mode for providing a single lane CACC service and a multi-lane CACC mode for providing a multi-lane CACC service.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the preset operation decision includes at least one of a decision not to follow the target vehicle having changed lanes, a decision to keep following the target vehicle having changed lanes in the single lane CACC mode, or a decision to keep following the target vehicle having changed lanes in the multi-lane CACC mode.

3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

determining whether to change a lane based on the preset operation decision.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein determining whether to change the lane includes:

when the preset operation decision is the decision not to follow the target vehicle having changed lanes, determining to maintain the lane;

when the preset operation decision is the decision to keep following the target vehicle having changed lanes in the single lane CACC mode, determining to change the lane; and

when the preset operation decision is the decision to keep following the target vehicle having changed lanes in the multi-lane CACC mode, determining to maintain the lane.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the V2X message further includes target vehicle ID information for identifying an ID of the target vehicle.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein detecting the lane change of the target vehicle is performed based on lane change indication information indicating the lane change of the target vehicle included in the V2X message received from the target vehicle.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein:

when a value of the lane change indication information is a first value, the lane change indication information indicates that there is no lane change,

when the value of the lane change indication information is a second value, the lane change indication information indicates that there is a lane change to a left, and

when the value of the lane change indication information is a third value, the lane change indication information indicates that there is a lane change to a right.

8. The V2X communication device of claim 1 , wherein the preset operation decision includes at least one of a decision not to follow the target vehicle having changed lanes, a decision to keep following the target vehicle having changed lanes in the single lane CACC mode, or a decision to keep following the target vehicle having changed lanes in the multi-lane CACC mode.

9. The V2X communication device of claim 8 , further comprising

determining whether to change a lane based on the preset operation decision.

10. The V2X communication device of claim 9 , wherein determining whether to change the lane includes:

when the preset operation decision is the decision not to follow the target vehicle having changed lanes, determining to maintain the lane;

when the preset operation decision is the decision to keep following the target vehicle having changed lanes in the single lane CACC mode, determining to change the lane; and

when the operation decision is the decision to keep following the target vehicle having changed lanes in the multi-lane CACC mode, determining to maintain the lane.

11. A V2X communication device of a subject vehicle, comprising: a memory storing data;

a communication unit transmitting/receiving a wireless signal; and a processor controlling the communication unit, wherein the V2X communication device comprises:

detecting a lane change of a target vehicle followed by the subject vehicle;

upon detecting the lane change of the target vehicle, setting a CACC mode based on a preset operation decision; and

transmitting a V2X message including information for the set CACC mode, wherein the CACC mode includes a single lane CACC mode for providing a single lane CACC service and a multi-lane CACC mode for providing a multi-lane CACC service.

12. The V2X communication device of claim 11 , wherein the V2X message further includes target vehicle ID information for identifying an ID of the target vehicle.

13. The V2X communication device of claim 11 , wherein detecting the lane change of the target vehicle is performed based on lane change indication information indicating the lane change of the target vehicle included in the V2X message received from the target vehicle.

14. The V2X communication device of claim 13 , wherein:

when a value of the lane change indication information is a first value, the lane change indication information indicates that there is no lane change,

when the value of the lane change indication information is a second value, the lane change indication information indicates that there is a lane change to a left, and

when the value of the lane change indication information is a third value, the lane change indication information indicates that there is a lane change to a right.
