图1为四旋翼飞行器结构图,本发明不仅限于四轴飞行器,可根据具体需求选取不同的多旋翼飞行器。这里以四旋翼飞行器为例介绍其结构。四旋翼飞行器结构如图1所示:四旋翼飞行器由支架、飞行控制计算机、电机、电调和旋翼等组成。 Fig. 1 is a structural diagram of a four-rotor aircraft. The present invention is not limited to a four-axis aircraft, and different multi-rotor aircraft can be selected according to specific requirements. Here we take the quadrotor aircraft as an example to introduce its structure.

图4为铁塔周围精确定位系统设计图,该定位系统如图4所示,以铁塔为中心,由网关、定位基站、参考节点和电子标签组成。其建立步骤为: Figure 4 is a design diagram of the precise positioning system around the iron tower. As shown in Figure 4, the positioning system is centered on the iron tower and consists of gateways, positioning base stations, reference nodes and electronic tags. Its establishment steps are:

在铁塔附近设立定位基站,定位基站包含ZigBee模块和RFID Reader模块,它们之间通过RX/TX进行数据的传输。(定位基站也可看作参考节点)。 Set up a positioning base station near the iron tower. The positioning base station includes a ZigBee module and an RFID Reader module, and data transmission is performed between them through RX/TX. (The positioning base station can also be regarded as a reference node).

在关键部位设立参考节点,参考节点只包含ZigBee模块。根据不同铁塔具体需求,可设立不同数目的参考节点。(参考节点越多定位越精确) Set up reference nodes in key parts, and the reference nodes only include ZigBee modules. According to the specific needs of different iron towers, different numbers of reference nodes can be set up. (The more reference nodes, the more accurate the positioning)

在飞行器上搭载电子标签,电子标签是由ZigBee模块和RFID Tag模块组成,它们直接是通过SPI接口连接。 The electronic tag is carried on the aircraft, and the electronic tag is composed of a ZigBee module and an RFID Tag module, which are directly connected through the SPI interface.

在定位区域内设立网关,网关的功能是由协调器来充当它在整个系统中起着至关重要的作用,负责跟基站、电子标签以及参考节点等之间进行通信。 The gateway is set up in the positioning area. The function of the gateway is played by the coordinator. It plays a vital role in the whole system and is responsible for communicating with the base station, electronic tags, and reference nodes.

进一步地,ZigBee模块包含无线通信功能和具有一定的运算能力,负责和其他组件上的ZigBee模块进行通信,并可以测算出与其他组件上的ZigBee模块之间的距离。 Furthermore, the ZigBee module includes wireless communication functions and has certain computing capabilities, and is responsible for communicating with ZigBee modules on other components, and can measure the distance to the ZigBee modules on other components.

RFID Reader模块和RFID Tag模块分别属于定位基站和多旋翼飞行器, The RFID Reader module and the RFID Tag module belong to the positioning base station and the multi-rotor aircraft respectively.

图5为局域定位系统实现过程图,该局域定位系统实现过程如图5所示,包含以下几步: Figure 5 is a diagram of the implementation process of the local positioning system. The implementation process of the local positioning system is shown in Figure 5 and includes the following steps:

第1步:网关发送广播——用于参考节点配置请求; Step 1: The gateway sends a broadcast - for the reference node configuration request;

第2步:参考节点收到广播后配置并发送单播——用于应答网关发出的请求; Step 2: After receiving the broadcast, the reference node configures and sends unicast—for responding to the request sent by the gateway;

第3步:网关向定位基站发送单播——用于电子标签发现请求 Step 3: The gateway sends a unicast to the positioning base station - for the electronic label discovery request

第4步:定位基站寻找电子标签,发送射频信号——用于电子标签配置请求; Step 4: locate the base station to find the electronic tag, and send a radio frequency signal - for the configuration request of the electronic tag;

第5步:电子标签收到射频信号后发送单播——用于应答定位基站发出的请求; Step 5: The electronic tag sends a unicast after receiving the radio frequency signal - used to respond to the request sent by the positioning base station;

第6步:电子标签发送广播——用于参考节点发现请求; Step 6: The electronic label sends a broadcast—for the reference node discovery request;

第7步:参考节点向电子标签发送单播——用于应答电子标签发现应答; Step 7: The reference node sends a unicast to the electronic tag—for replying to the electronic tag discovery response;

第8步:电子标签向网关发送单播——用于电子标签发现应答。 Step 8: The electronic tag sends a unicast to the gateway—for electronic tag discovery response.

进一步地,过程第1-2步作用是:网关配合其他参考节点(定位基站也属于参考节点)建立局域网。根据各个参考节点到定位基站的相对距离,通过特定算法建立基于该局域网的三维空间坐标系。 Further, the function of steps 1-2 of the process is: the gateway cooperates with other reference nodes (the positioning base station also belongs to the reference node) to establish a local area network. According to the relative distance from each reference node to the positioning base station, a three-dimensional space coordinate system based on the local area network is established through a specific algorithm.

过程第3步的作用是:通过网关发送电子标签发现请求给定位基站,定位基站收到请求后执行相应的操作。 The function of the third step of the process is to send an electronic label discovery request to the positioning base station through the gateway, and the positioning base station performs corresponding operations after receiving the request.

进一步地,定位基站收到请求后执行相应的操作为:过程第4步到第7步。过程4-5步的作用是:找到盲节点(电子标签)。定位基站包含Zigbee模块和RFID Reader模块。以调制的方式形成射频信号,通过天线不断向外发送射频信号。电子标签包含Zigbee模块和RFID Tag模块。接收到定位基站发送过来的射频信号,经过解调和解码后将数据通过SPI方式传送给ZigBee模块。ZigBee模块再通过无线方式发送应答到定位基站。过程第6-7步的作用是:测算各参考节点到盲节点(电子标签)的距离。ZigBee模块通过无线方式发送参考节点发现请求到局域网内所有的参考节点。参考节点收到发现请求后发送应答并将自己的坐标信息和RSSI值发送给电子标签。 Further, after receiving the request, the positioning base station performs corresponding operations as follows: Steps 4 to 7 of the process. The role of steps 4-5 in the process is to find blind nodes (electronic tags). The positioning base station contains Zigbee module and RFID Reader module. The radio frequency signal is formed in a modulated way, and the radio frequency signal is continuously sent out through the antenna. Electronic tags include Zigbee modules and RFID Tag modules. After receiving the radio frequency signal sent by the positioning base station, the data is sent to the ZigBee module through SPI after demodulation and decoding. The ZigBee module then sends a reply to the positioning base station through wireless means. The function of steps 6-7 of the process is to measure the distance from each reference node to the blind node (electronic label). The ZigBee module sends a reference node discovery request to all reference nodes in the LAN through wireless means. After receiving the discovery request, the reference node sends a reply and sends its own coordinate information and RSSI value to the electronic tag.

过程第8步的作用是:电子标签向网关发送电子标签发现应答。电子标签收到各个参考节点的位置信息和RSSI值后,以此求出电子标签(盲节点)在之前建立的坐标系中的位置坐标。然后电子标签向网关发送电子标签发现应答并将球出来的位置坐标发送到相应设备。提高了飞行器的易操作性,从而降低了对操作人员的技术要求。 The function of step 8 of the process is: the electronic tag sends an electronic tag discovery response to the gateway. After the electronic tag receives the position information and RSSI value of each reference node, it calculates the position coordinates of the electronic tag (blind node) in the previously established coordinate system. Then the electronic tag sends an electronic tag discovery response to the gateway and sends the position coordinates of the ball out to the corresponding device. The ease of operation of the aircraft is improved, thereby reducing the technical requirements for operators.
