Abstract

A driving support control device of a vehicle is provided including an acquiring unit configured to acquire a traveling state of the vehicle which is detected and a traveling environment of the vehicle, and a control unit, configured to, in a case where zero-point learning of a yaw rate sensor has not been completed, cause a driving support unit to execute collision avoidance support using a reduced operational area reduced from a reference operational area which becomes a reference in view of an error of the yaw rate sensor as an operational area of collision avoidance support, and the traveling state of the vehicle and the traveling environment of the vehicle.

Claims (26)

1. A driving support control device of a vehicle comprising:

an acquiring unit configured to acquire a traveling state of the vehicle which is detected and a traveling environment of the vehicle; and

a control unit configured to, for a state in which a zero-point learning of a yaw rate sensor has not been completed, cause a driving support unit to execute collision avoidance support using the traveling state of the vehicle, the traveling environment of the vehicle, and a reduced operational area,

wherein

the zero-point learning comprises a calibration process performed by the yaw rate sensor in which the zero point of the yaw rate sensor is determined, and

the reduced operational area comprises an area that is reduced relative to a reference operational area, which becomes a reference in view of an error of the yaw rate sensor as an operational area of collision avoidance support.

2. The driving support control device of the vehicle according to claim 1 ,

wherein the control unit reduces the reference operational area in view of a maximum error of the yaw rate sensor.

3. The driving support control device of the vehicle according to claim 1 ,

wherein the control unit uses the reference operational area in a case where zero-point learning of the yaw rate sensor has been completed.

4. A driving support system comprising:

a driving support control device of a vehicle including:

an acquiring unit configured to acquire a traveling state of the vehicle which is detected and a traveling environment of the vehicle; and

a control unit configured to, for a state in which a zero-point learning of a yaw rate sensor has not been completed, cause a driving support unit to execute collision avoidance support using the traveling state of the vehicle, the traveling environment of the vehicle, and a reduced operational area;

a detecting unit configured to detect the traveling state and the traveling environment; and

wherein

the zero-point learning comprises a calibration process performed by the yaw rate sensor in which the zero point of the yaw rate sensor is determined,

the reduced operational area comprises an area that is reduced relative to a reference operational area, which becomes a reference in view of an error of the yaw rate sensor as an operational area of collision avoidance support, and

the driving support unit is configured to execute the collision avoidance support in accordance with an instruction from the control unit.

5. A driving support control method of a vehicle, comprising:

acquiring a traveling state of the vehicle which is detected and a traveling environment of the vehicle;

determining whether zero-point learning of a yaw rate sensor has been completed; and

for a state in which a zero-point learning of the yaw rate sensor has not been completed, executing collision avoidance support processing using the traveling state of the vehicle, the traveling environment of the vehicle, and a reduced operational area,

wherein

the zero-point learning comprises a calibration process performed by the yaw rate sensor in which the zero point of the yaw rate sensor is determined, and

the reduced operational area comprises an area that is reduced relative to a reference operational area, which becomes a reference in view of an error of the yaw rate sensor as an operational area of collision avoidance support.
