NAVIGATION SYSTEM WITH VEHICLE POSITION MECHANISM AND METHOD OF OPERATION THEREOF
First Claim
1. A navigation system comprising:
- a communication unit configured to receive vehicle environment information of a user vehicle, the vehicle environment information including proximate vehicle information representing proximately located vehicles relative to the user vehicle; and
a control unit, coupled to the communication unit, configured to;
determine lane reference vehicles from the proximately located vehicles based on a vehicle type of the proximately located vehicles;
monitor the relative location of the lane reference vehicles;
generate a road lane model including a lane delineation estimation based on the relative location of the lane reference vehicles; and
calculate a lane position of the user vehicle according to the lane delineation estimation based on a lateral position shift of the user vehicle.
