    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method, an apparatus and a vehicle for trailer angle measurement, applied in a semi-trailer including a tractor and a trailer. At least one LiDAR is provided on each of two sides of a rear part of the tractor. A reflector with a reflective surface is fixedly provided at a front part of the trailer, and the reflective surface faces the LiDARs. The method includes: controlling the LiDARs to emit laser light, such that the reflective surface of the reflector reflects the laser light; controlling each of the LiDARs to receive a corresponding laser point cloud reflected by the reflector; and calculating a trailer angle based on the corresponding laser point clouds. The method and apparatus can increase the range of trailer angle measurement, such that the trailer angle can be measured even if the trailer angle is relatively large.

    Abstract: An example system includes a roadside apparatus and an in-vehicle device for position-based parking of a vehicle, for example, in environments with weak GPS signals. The roadside apparatus determines a first posture data of a vehicle that includes a relative position and an orientation of the vehicle. The relative position is with respect to a predetermined location associated with the roadside apparatus. The roadside apparatus transmits the first posture data, and the in-vehicle device receives the first posture data. The in-vehicle device dynamically evaluates a predetermined rule with the first posture data. The predetermined rule defines a target posture data with respect to both relative position and orientation. The in-vehicle device controls, in response to the predetermined rule failing to be satisfied, the vehicle to perform a posture adjustment operation based on posture adjustment data determined from a difference between the target posture data and the first posture data.
