  • Patent number: 11801834
    Abstract: A vehicle positioning method via data fusion and a system using the same are disclosed. The method is performed in a processor electrically connected to a self-driving-vehicle controller and multiple electronic systems. The method is to perform a delay correction according to a first real-time coordinate, a second real-time coordinate, real-time lane recognition data, multiple vehicle dynamic parameters, and multiple vehicle information received from the multiple electronic systems with their weigh values, to generate a fusion positioning coordinate, and to determine confidence indexes. Then, the method is to output the first real-time coordinate, the second real-time coordinate, and the real-time lane recognition data that are processed by the delay correction, the fusion positioning coordinate, and the confidence indexes to the self-driving-vehicle controller for a self-driving operation.
