Abstract

This application provides example information processing methods and example devices. In one example method, a vehicular device in the vehicle receives a first message from a road side device, where the first message includes first position information of at least one first signal light, and the first message is a MAP message or a signal phase and timing (SPAT) message. The vehicular device determines a position of a target signal light based on the first position information.

Claims (38)

1 . An information processing apparatus, comprising:

at least one processor; and

one or more memories coupled to the at least one processor and storing programming instructions for execution by the at least one processor to:

receive a first message from a road side device, wherein the first message comprises first position information of at least one first signal light, and the first message is a MAP message or a signal phase and timing (SPAT) message;

determine a position of a target signal light based on the first position information;

obtain second position information from a sensing device, wherein the second position information indicates a position of at least one second signal light; and

determine the position of the target signal light based on the first position information and the second position information.

2 . The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein in response to the first message being is a MAP message, and the first position information is located in a Seq. of Connection field of the MAP message.

3 . The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first message is the SPAT message, the SPAT message further comprises identification information of the at least one first signal light, and the programming instructions are for execution by the at least one processor to:

receive the MAP message from the road side device, wherein the MAP message comprises the identification information.

4 . The apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein a Seq. of IntersectionState field of the SPAT message comprises the first position information and the identification information, and a Seq. of connection field of the MAP message comprises the identification information.

5 . An information processing apparatus, comprising:

at least one processor; and

one or more memories coupled to the at least one processor and storing programming instructions for execution by the at least one processor to:

generate a first message, wherein the first message comprises first position information of at least one signal light, and the first message is a MAP message or a signal phase and timing (SPAT) message; and

send the first message, wherein:

the first position information is used to determine a position of a target signal light;

second position information is obtained, wherein the second position information indicates a position of at least one second signal light; and

the position of the target signal light is determined based on the first position information and the second position information.

6 . The apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein in response to the first message is the being a MAP message, and the position information is located in a Seq. of Connection field of the MAP message.

7 . The apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the first message is the SPAT message, the SPAT message further comprises identification information of the at least one signal light, and the programming instructions are for execution by the at least one processor to:

send the MAP message, wherein the MAP message comprises the identification information.

8 . The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein a Seq. of IntersectionState field of the SPAT message comprises the position information and the identification information, and a Seq. of connection field of the MAP message comprises the identification information.

9 . An information processing method, wherein the method comprises:

receiving a first message from a road side device, wherein the first message comprises first position information of at least one first signal light, and the first message is a MAP message or a signal phase and timing (SPAT) message; and

determining a position of a target signal light based on the first position information;

obtain second position information from a sensing device, wherein the second position information indicates a position of at least one second signal light; and

determine the position of the target signal light based on the first position information and the second position information.

10 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein in response to the first message is the being a MAP message, and the first position information is located in a Seq. of Connection field of the MAP message.

11 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein the first message is the SPAT message, the SPAT message further comprises identification information of the at least one first signal light, and the method further comprises:

receiving the MAP message from the road side device, wherein the MAP message comprises the identification information.

12 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein a Seq. of IntersectionState field of the SPAT message comprises the first position information and the identification information, and a Seq. of connection field of the MAP message comprises the identification information.

13 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein the method further comprises:

obtaining second position information from a sensing device, wherein the second position information indicates a position of at least one second signal light; and

wherein the determining a position of a target signal light based on the first position information comprises: determining the position of the target signal light based on the first position information and the second position information.

14 . The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first message is the SPAT message, and the first position information is located in a Seq. of Phase field of the SPAT message.

15 . The apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the first message is the SPAT message, and the position information is located in a Seq. of Phase field of the SPAT message.

16 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein the first message is the SPAT message, and the first position information is located in a Seq. of Phase field of the SPAT message.
