PROCEDE ET DISPOSITIF POUR EVALUER UNE SITUATION D'APPROCHE D'UN VEHICULE PAR RAPPORT A UNE INSTALLATION DE SIGNALISATION

The evaluation method involves determining approach information based on signaling data (108) corresponding to an upcoming signal change of a signaling system (106). Position data are determined corresponding to a vehicle (100) in front of the located external vehicle (102). The approach information has a stopping point of the vehicle before the signaling system. An approach distance, an approach speed or an approach acceleration of the vehicle at the signaling system and the position data are used to represent the data determined by a sensor system (114). Independent claims are included for the following: (1) an apparatus for evaluating a convergence position of a vehicle to a signaling system; and (2) a computer program product with program code for performing the evaluation method.
