초록

차량 운행 시 주의분산으로 인한 자동차 사고가 증가 하고 있는데, 주의분산 행동은 전방 주시율, 차로유지능력, 위험상황별 반응시간의 세 가지 항목에 대해 영향을 미친다. 많은 운전자들이 운행 중 라디오를 청취하게 되는데, 지역의 경계를 넘어가는 경우 특정 방송국의 라디오를 계속 청취하기 위해 라디오의 주파수를 변경하여야 한다. 이 과정에서 운전자의 주의분산이 발생하여 교통사고 발생 가능성이 높아지게 된다. 특히 고속도로에서는 빠른 속도로 차량이 주행하므로 사고의 위험이 더욱 높아지게 된다. 차량 운행 시 라디오 조작으로 인한 사고의 위험성을 줄이기 위해 본 논문에서는 각 방송국의 표준 라디오 주파수를 데이터베이스(D/B : date base)에 저장하고, 특정 지역의 경계에서 내비게이션으로부터 얻은 차량의 위치정보를 이용하여 변경된 지역의 라디오 주파수를 결정한 후, 기존의 주파수와 새로운 주파수를 이용하는 신호 중 수신율이 양호한 주파수를 선택하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 양호한 수신율을 가지는 주파수를 선택하기 위해 두 주파수에 대한 신호의 신호-대-잡음비(SNR : signal-to-noise ratio)를 기준으로 사용한다.

Traffic accidents caused by the attention dispersion are increasing and the behavior of the attention dispersion affects the front-observing rate, road keeping ability, and reaction time for a dangerous situation. Many drivers listen to a radio broadcast and they have to change the frequency for continuously listening a radio broadcast of the specific broadcasting station in case of crossing a boundary of the particular area. In this situation, the possibility of a car accident increases, because the attention dispersion of a driver might be occurred. Especially, the risk of a car accident caused by changing the frequency of a radio is more serious in the highway, due to the high speed of a vehicle. In order to reduce the risk of a car accident caused by handling a radio during driving car, in this paper, we propose an automatic frequency conversion algorithm for vehicle radio, which saves normal system frequencies of primary broadcasting stations in a database and determines new frequency of the changed area using the location information obtained from a navigation system in a boundary of the specific area. After determining new frequency, the proposed algorithm selects a frequency with better receiving rate comparing signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) of two signals corresponding previous and new frequencies.
