Abstract: Provided are an intelligent parking method and apparatus, relating to the technical field of vehicles. The method comprises: determining a target parking route from at least one pre-stored parking route; determining a target position point in the target parking route closest to a vehicle; sending a prompt message for driving the vehicle to the target position point to a driver of the vehicle when a current position point of the vehicle and the target position point satisfy a proximity matching condition; and when the vehicle drives to the target position point, controlling the vehicle to park according to the target parking route from the target position point. Thus, the driver merely needs to drive the vehicle to a vicinity of the target parking route, and the vehicle may perform intelligent parking and may complete intelligent parking at a longer distance.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for power delivery network (PDN) analysis comprises obtaining time-domain single-pulse current response of the PDN, computing a maximum transient simultaneous switching noise (SSN) of the PDN according to the time-domain single-pulse current response, and determining that noise performance of the PDN conforms to a design requirement of the PDN if the maximum transient SSN is less than a PDN SSN threshold. Transient characteristics of the PDN can be analyzed.
