METHOD FOR LOCATING SPECIFIC AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE AND COMPUTING DEVICE USING THE SAME

A method for locating a specific autonomous vehicle is provided. The method includes steps of: (a) receiving, by a computing device of the specific autonomous vehicle, map data related to a position of the specific autonomous vehicle and its adjacent regions, from a server; (b) obtaining, by the computing device, a specific object-based sector and a specific vehicle-based sector; and (c) determining, by the computing device, a validity of the specific sensed data by referring to the specific object-based sector, the specific vehicle-based sector and the map object data, and in case the specific sensed data is determined as valid, locating the specific autonomous vehicle by referring to a specific matched result data generated from a matching process between the map object data and the specific sensed data.
