The parking assist system is an essential application of the car’s active collision avoidance system in low-speed and complex urban environments, which has been a hot research topic in recent years. Parking space detection is an important step of the parking assistance system, and its research object is parking spaces with symmetrical structures in parking lots. By analyzing and investigating parking space information measured by the sensors, reliable detection of sufficient parking spaces can be realized. First, this article discusses the main problems in the process of detecting parking spaces, illustrating the research significance and current research status of parking space detection methods. In addition, it further introduces some parking space detection methods, including free-space-based methods, parking-space-marking-based methods, user-interface-based methods, and infrastructure-based methods, which are all under methods of parking space selection. Lastly, this article summarizes the parking space detection methods, which gives a clear direction for future research.
In a previous study, the characteristics of plasma generated by fast electrons behind a grid anode with short glow discharge were studied using numerical simulation. The source of the post-anode plasma electrons is considered to be the direct current glow discharge itself in the gap between a cathode and a grid anode. However, the electron attenuation of the microwave radiation in the post-anode space measured in experiments does not correspond to the numerical predictions. In this paper, the current–voltage characteristics of the short glow discharge with a grid anode and the spectral characteristics of the discharge in both the electrode gap and the space behind the grid anode are studied; the effective thickness of the plasma in the post-anode space is estimated using a spectral method.
This paper presents a new composite grid electrode structure for the generation of plasma that is suitable for modeling microwave radiation transmission through atmospheric plasma. The new grid anode-composite cathode (GA-CC) structure is to be contrasted with the ordinary grid anode-cathode plate (GA-CP) structure. It is found that the breakdown voltage of the new GA-CC electrode structure is lower than that of the GA-CP structure and is a bit shifted to the right on the Pd-axis. An advantage of the GA-CC structure over the GA-CP structure is that it requires a lower voltage to generate the same current. It is found that plasma generated by the new GA-CC structure selectively strengthens electromagnetic waves attenuation in the frequency range of 9-12 GHz.
Parking space detection is an important part of the automatic parking assistance system. How to use existing sensors to accurately and effectively detect parking spaces is the key problem that has not been solved in the automatic parking system. Advances in Artificial Intelligence and sensing technologies have motivated significant research and development in parking space detection in the automotive field. Firstly, based on extensive investigation of a lot of literature and the latest re-search results, this paper divides parking space detection methods into methods based on traditional visual features and those methods based on deep learning and introduces them separately. Secondly, the advantages and disadvantages of each parking space detection method are analyzed, compared, and summarized. And the benchmark datasets and algorithm evaluation standards commonly used in parking space detection methods are introduced. Finally, the vision-based parking space detection method is summarized, and the future development trend is prospected.
