A driving path planning apparatus for an autonomous vehicle includes a driving information obtainer to obtain crossroad information, current velocity, and velocity setting of the vehicle. A global path planner plans a base frame, and an environment recognizer recognizes obstacle on a path and lane information of the vehicle. The apparatus also includes a velocity profile generator to generate a velocity profile for the vehicle, using current velocity and velocity setting, a candidate path planner to plan candidate paths for the vehicle, using velocity profile and base frame, and a path selector to check whether or not the candidate paths have collision risks and select one candidate path of the candidate paths as a driving path for the autonomous vehicle.

1. A driving path planning apparatus for an autonomous vehicle, the driving path planning apparatus comprising a processor configured to perform steps of: obtaining crossroad information, current velocity, and velocity setting of the autonomous vehicle;planning a base frame;recognizing an obstacle on a path and lane information of the autonomous vehicle;generating a velocity profile for the autonomous vehicle, using the current velocity and the velocity setting;planning one or more candidate paths for the autonomous vehicle, using the velocity profile and the base frame;checking whether or not the one or more candidate paths have collision risks; andselecting one candidate path of the one or more candidate paths as a driving path for the autonomous vehicle, based on a checked result,wherein the processor plans the one or more candidate paths for each longitudinal velocity of the autonomous vehicle based on the current velocity by taking account of variation in velocity of the autonomous vehicle when the one or more candidate paths have collision risks. 2. The driving path planning apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor generates a virtual target when the autonomous vehicle enters within a predetermined distance from a crossroad, based on the crossroad information. 3. The driving path planning apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the processor generates the virtual target, which is in a stopped state, at a point spaced apart from the autonomous vehicle by a distance obtained by adding a distance between the autonomous vehicle and the crossroad and a spare distance. 4. The driving path planning apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the spare distance is a distance between the autonomous vehicle and a preceding vehicle at the time of a longitudinal control. 5. The driving path planning apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor generates a longitudinal acceleration and deceleration profile for the autonomous vehicle, using velocity of the autonomous vehicle at the time of starting at a starting point on the path and velocity of the autonomous vehicle at the time of arriving at a destination, and wherein the velocity profile generator generates the velocity profile based on the longitudinal acceleration and deceleration profile. 6. The driving path planning apparatus according to claim 5, wherein the longitudinal acceleration and deceleration profile is an acceleration profile when acceleration is constant. 7. The driving path planning apparatus according to claim 5, wherein the longitudinal acceleration and deceleration profile is an acceleration profile when a rate of change of acceleration is constant. 8. The driving path planning apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor selects a candidate path for the autonomous vehicle, of which driving cost is minimal based on a cost function. 9. The driving path planning apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor checks whether or not the one or more candidate paths have collision risk and selects the driving path among the one or more candidate paths when the one or more candidate paths have collision risk. 10. The driving path planning apparatus according to claim 9, wherein the processor selects the driving path by taking account of a degree of collision risk, driving stability, and target path proximity. 11. The driving path planning apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor selects the driving path among candidate paths that do not have collision risk when some of the one or more candidate paths do not have collision risk. 12. The driving path planning apparatus according to claim 11, wherein the processor selects the driving path by taking account of driving stability and target path proximity. 13. A driving path planning method for an autonomous vehicle, the driving path planning method comprising: checking, by a processor, whether or not the autonomous vehicle is in a lane change mode;planning, by the processor, one or more candidate paths by taking account of current velocity of the autonomous vehicle within a current lane and a lane to be changed, when the autonomous vehicle is in the lane change mode;checking, by the processor, whether or not the one or more candidate paths planned by taking account of the current velocity have collision risk;planning, by the processor, one or more candidate paths for each longitudinal velocity of the autonomous vehicle based on the current velocity by taking account of variation in velocity of the autonomous vehicle when the one or more candidate paths planned by taking account of the current velocity have collision risk;checking, by the processor, whether the one or more candidate paths for each longitudinal velocity have collision risk; andselecting, by the processor, a candidate path from the one or more candidate paths as a driving path when the one or more candidate paths for each longitudinal velocity have collision risk. 14.
