Method for classifying parking scenarios for a system for parking a motor vehicle
First Claim
1. A method for classifying parking scenarios for an assistance system for parking a motor vehicle, a predefined number of parking scenarios being defined and each parking scenario being described by a predefined number of typical parking scenario criteria, the criteria being based at least on parking-space-specific parameters, the method comprising:
- determining data relating to the environment of the motor vehicle using an environment sensor system of the motor vehicle;
determining parking-space-specific parameters from the environment data;
checking the criteria of each parking scenario using the parking-space-specific parameters; and
classifying each parking scenario using the criteria which have been checked;
wherein the following parking scenarios;
“
reversing into a perpendicular parking space”
, “
reversing into a parallel parking space”
, “
driving forward into a perpendicular parking space”
, “
driving forward into a parallel parking space” and
“
driving forward into an oblique parking space”
are definedwherein a type of parking space in the parking scenario is detected by checking criteria including a number of previously found free spaces in which one of perpendicular, parallel, or oblique-type parking is possible.

Abstract
A method for classifying parking scenarios for an assistance system for parking a motor vehicle wherein a predetermined number of parking scenarios are defined, each parking scenario is described by a predetermined number of typical parking scenario criteria, and the criteria are based at least on parking space-specific parameters. The method includes determination of data from the environment of the motor vehicle by means of an environment sensor system in the motor vehicle, determination of the parking space-specific parameters from the environment data, examining the criteria of each parking scenario on the basis of the parking space-specific parameters, and classifying each parking scenario on the basis of the examined criteria.
