Abstract

In recent years, high-definition (HD) maps are considered to be significant complements to the on-board sensors of autonomous vehicles. Due to the highly dynamic characteristic of HD map, how to update HD maps fast and efficiently has become the pivotal issue which attracts great attentions. Currently, most of the research on this issue focuses on the crowdsourcing protocol design or specific updating method meanwhile disregarding the need of communication and computing resource in HD map update. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an integrated update framework including both an adaptive data transmission scheme and an adaptive task scheduling scheme to realize fast data collection and fast data processing for HD map update. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that addresses the problem of HD map update which takes the need of communication and computing resource into consideration. In this paper, we firstly illustrate the system architecture of our HD map update framework. Based on that, to realize fast data collection, we propose an adaptive data transmission scheme, which optimizes the transmission rate on different links of each vehicle considering the wireless channel capacity and fronthaul link capacity of the access points. Besides, to realize fast data processing, we propose an adaptive task scheduling scheme, which enables cooperative computing between the edge nodes and cloud computing server, considering the constraints of computing capacity and backhaul link capacity. To the end, we carry out simulations to verify the effectiveness of our proposed policies.
