Abstract:
A method of determining a driving lane of an autonomous vehicle is provided. The method includes classifying, by an autonomous driving logic of an electronic control unit (ECU), at least one object sensed in front of the autonomous vehicle as a stationary object or a moving object. A clustering group is generated by clustering the stationary object and a boundary of an entire driving road is determined based on a position of a moving object approaching the subject vehicle among the moving objects and the clustering group. Additionally, the method includes comparing positions of a plurality of lanes based on lane widths of the lanes for travel of the subject vehicle with the boundary of the entire driving road and determining a driving lane of the subject vehicle.
