Abstract

A method for determining an alternative trajectory for an autonomously-driven transportation vehicle wherein an alternative trajectory for the transportation vehicle is calculated by a control device in response to an obstacle being detected by a transportation vehicle sensor device, which trajectory replaces at least one portion of an original trajectory of the transportation vehicle so the trajectory has a minimum total disturbance of at least one disturbance summand, consisting of a respective weighting factor and one disturbance value.
