  • Publication number: 20210053571
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining a lane change for a driver assistance system (100) of a vehicle (1), which method comprises calculating (220) a probability that other vehicles (2) are driving at a higher speed in a lane (L2) which is adjacent to a current lane (L1) of the vehicle (1), applying (240) a hysteresis to the calculated probability based on a driving parameter dependent on a last lane change, and issuing (250) a command to change lanes depending on the probability. The invention further relates to a driver assistance system and a vehicle which can carry out such a method.

  • Publication number: 20200258380
    Abstract: A control system for use in a motor vehicle is used for monitoring a current driving situation of the motor vehicle, based on surroundings data of the host motor vehicle in the current driving situation, obtained from at least one surroundings sensor situated on the host motor vehicle. The control system is used to recognize lanes, lane boundary lines, lane markings, and/or other motor vehicles in an area in front of, to the side of, and/or behind the host motor vehicle. In addition, the control system is used to determine at least one driving parameter for each other motor vehicle present in the surroundings of the host motor vehicle, based on the provided surroundings data, and to generate a plurality of possible trajectories for the future travel course for each of the other motor vehicles, based on the driving parameter determined in each case.
