In the following embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, when two or more mobile terminals (the mobile terminals serve as devices to be communicated) perform peer-to-peer communication or multipoint communication, because of a distance between the mobile terminals or an obstacle, there may be a decrease or an interruption of signal strength, at this time, the obstacle may be bypassed by a signal relaying communication method, and signal relaying and amplification may be performed, for example, an aircraft (e.g., an unmanned aerial vehicle) is lifted off to bypass the obstacle as a signal relaying to establish a communication network between the mobile terminals.
As shown in fig. 2, the aircraft does not have to be raised to bypass obstacles, but may be raised to bypass obstacles in the horizontal plane for communication relay. In a word, the position of the aircraft is convenient to adjust, the aircraft is used as a signal relay network, so that the flexibility is high, and timely adjustment according to real-time conditions is facilitated.
By means of the schemes of the following embodiments of the present invention, a flexible and mobile aircraft can be used as a core of a network (e.g., a star network) to connect each communication node (i.e., a device to be communicated), and further, the position of an optimal relay point can be calculated in real time and the position of the relay point can be adjusted in real time when the position of the communication node changes dynamically, so as to avoid obstacles between the communication nodes and ensure intelligent and efficient operation of a communication network.
Specifically, one aircraft (multiple aircraft can be adopted according to the complexity and distance of the network) can be used as a relay for transmitting signals, when any equipment to be communicated has obstacles and cannot be communicated through point-to-point connection or remote dynamic networking is carried out, the aircraft calculates an optimal communication path which can bypass the obstacles between the communication nodes according to a current position three-dimensional map model stored in the aircraft and the positions of the communication nodes, and then a communication network between two points or multiple points is established. When the position of the communication node changes, the aircraft can also calculate and update the position of the optimal relay point in real time so as to ensure that the constructed communication network can continuously and optimally operate.
Example 1
As shown in fig. 3, embodiment 1 of the present invention provides an aircraft 100 including: an aircraft body 110 and a communication relay device 120 arranged on the aircraft body, the communication relay device 120 being adapted to enable the aircraft to function as a communication relay node for enabling communication between at least two devices to be communicated. The communication relay device 120 may be a communication module with a communication relay function, which is disposed in the aircraft body 110, and is generally connected to a processor in the aircraft 100, and can implement the communication relay function in addition to the original communication function of the aircraft, so as to be a communication relay between other devices to be communicated, and further establish a communication network.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the aircraft is used as the communication relay of the communication network between the devices to be communicated, so that the communication network between two points or multiple points can be established through the aircraft, the position of the aircraft is convenient to adjust, the networking requirement when an obstacle exists between the communication points or an entity cable cannot be erected is met, and the networking cost is lower compared with that of satellite communication.
Example 2

step 100, controlling an aircraft with a communication relay device to fly to a communication relay position, so that the aircraft can be used as a communication relay node at the communication relay position to realize communication between at least two devices to be communicated.
The communication relay position may be selected manually (e.g., by a remote control of the aircraft) or may be calculated intelligently by the aircraft itself, as described in more detail in the embodiments below. After a certain communication relay position is determined, the aircraft is controlled to fly to the position through the embodiment to serve as a communication relay between the devices to be communicated in the communication network, so that good communication effect is achieved by using the aircraft as the relay when the devices to be communicated cannot be directly communicated or the direct communication effect is not good.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the aircraft is used as the communication relay of the communication network between the devices to be communicated, so that the communication network between two points or multiple points can be established through the aircraft, the position of the aircraft is convenient to adjust, the networking requirement when an obstacle exists between the communication points or an entity cable cannot be erected is met, and the networking cost is lower compared with that of satellite communication.
Example 3
As shown in fig. 5, embodiment 3 of the present invention provides a control method for an aircraft, including:
and step 210, acquiring real-time position information of each device to be communicated.
The real-time position information is obtained, and the area where the equipment to be communicated is located can be located.
In addition, each device to be communicated has its specific identifier in the communication network, for example, when the device to be communicated is a mobile terminal, the identifier is an International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) of the mobile terminal, and the identifier is also an identifier when the mobile terminal communicates through the base station. The embodiment of the invention can also identify the communication source and confirm the communication transmission object by acquiring the code when the aircraft is subsequently used as the communication relay of the equipment to be communicated and other communication equipment. If the signal of a certain device cannot be searched and the identification code and the real-time position information of the device cannot be acquired, the position information, the motion track and the speed of the device before the signal loss are combined with the three-dimensional map information of the area where the device to be communicated is located and the current time to deduce the position range of the device.
Step 220, positioning the three-dimensional map model of the area where the device to be communicated is located according to the real-time position information of the device to be communicated, and determining the communication relay position according to the three-dimensional map model and the real-time position information of the device to be communicated.
After the real-time position information of the device to be communicated is acquired, a three-dimensional map model of the area where the communication device is located can be acquired in a memory of the aircraft or a cloud service system connected with the aircraft, and then a communication relay position is further determined.
And step 230, controlling the aircraft with the communication relay device to fly to a communication relay position, so that the aircraft can be used as a communication relay node at the communication relay position to realize communication between at least two devices to be communicated.
After the position of the communication relay is determined, the aircraft can be controlled to fly to and stay at the position to serve as the communication relay to establish a communication network.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the position of the communication relay between the to-be-communicated devices by taking the aircraft as the to-be-communicated device is searched according to the three-dimensional map model and the real-time position information of the to-be-communicated devices, so that the searched position is based on the position of the to-be-communicated device and the terrain where the to-be-communicated device is located, the actual communication requirement is met, and the intelligent and efficient operation of a communication network is.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 6, in another embodiment, the step 220 of positioning to a three-dimensional map model of an area where the device to be communicated is located according to the real-time location information of the device to be communicated, and the step of determining the communication relay location according to the three-dimensional map model and the real-time location information of the device to be communicated includes:
and step 221, determining obstacles in the three-dimensional map model according to the three-dimensional map model.
Step 222, finding the position where the communication line with each of the devices to be communicated avoids the obstacle, and determining the found position as a communication relay position.
According to the three-dimensional map model of the area where the device to be communicated is located and the real-time position information of the device to be communicated, the positions of the devices to be communicated are known to have obstacles, so that the positions serving as communication relays are determined, no obstacle influencing communication exists between the positions and the devices to be communicated, and meanwhile, the total communication distance is preferably shortest under the condition that no obstacle exists. The communication relay position can be selected manually (for example, by a remote controller of the aircraft), and can also be obtained by intelligent calculation of the aircraft (for example, the communication relay position calculation is completed in the air after the aircraft is lifted off, and the aircraft can calculate the stop position of the aircraft serving as a signal relay in real time by combining a three-dimensional map model of the area and real-time position information of a plurality of communication sources). Specifically, the calculation of the communication relay position may be based on two criteria, that is, after the calculated position is used as a signal relay network, no obstacle exists on the communication link; and secondly, after the calculated position is used as a signal relay for networking, the communication distance is shortest on the premise that no obstacle exists on a communication link.
The embodiment of the invention searches for the position of taking the aircraft as the communication relay between the devices to be communicated according to the three-dimensional map model and the real-time position information of the devices to be communicated, the position avoids the obstacles between communication sources, the flexible and mobile aircraft is taken as the communication relay to connect each node, and when the position of the devices to be communicated dynamically changes, the optimal relay position is calculated in real time and the position of the aircraft is adjusted in real time, so as to avoid the obstacles and ensure that a communication network intelligently and efficiently operates, and the method and the device are suitable for temporary long-distance two-point intranet communication, dynamic long-distance two-point intranet communication and intranet communication in mountainous areas and multi-obstacle areas.
In some embodiments, the communication relay location may also be determined by:
acquiring real-time position information of each device to be communicated; the communication relay position is determined based on the real-time position information and a preset rule, which can be set by a user in a customized manner, for example, a sphere range is determined with a certain distance as a radius around each device to be communicated (the determination of the distance can be determined according to the signal communication distance capability of the communication network), the sphere ranges of all the devices to be communicated are accumulated to form a summarized communication range, and the communication relay position is determined within the summarized communication range. And finally, controlling the aircraft with the communication relay device to fly to the communication relay position, so that the aircraft can be used as a communication relay node at the communication relay position to realize the communication between at least two devices to be communicated.
In some embodiments, after the communication relay location is determined, a communication test may be further performed on the communication relay location to determine whether the location is suitable as a communication relay location, for example, if the location and the device to be communicated cannot normally communicate with each other through a test (for example, an obstacle exists between the location and the device to be communicated, or other factors affecting the communication exist), the location is not suitable as the communication relay location, and another communication relay location needs to be reselected until a location suitable as the communication relay location is found. And finally, controlling the aircraft with the communication relay device to fly to the communication relay position, so that the aircraft can be used as a communication relay node at the communication relay position to realize the communication between at least two devices to be communicated.
Of course, the communication relay location may also be determined in other ways, which are not listed here.
Example 4

And step C2, determining two devices to be communicated with highest priority from all the devices to be communicated.
In some embodiments, the two devices to be communicated may be randomly selected.
And step C4, finding the position where the communication lines with the two devices to be communicated with the highest priority avoid the obstacle.
In some embodiments, a location may be found where the communication line with both of the two devices to be communicated, which are randomly selected, avoid the obstacle.
And step C6, selecting communication lines between the communication lines and other devices to be communicated from the searched positions to avoid the obstacles and determining the communication lines and the positions as communication relay positions.
And finally, controlling the aircraft with the communication relay device to fly to a communication relay position, and enabling the aircraft to serve as a communication relay node at the communication relay position to realize communication between the devices to be communicated.
In this step, it is determined whether the communication lines with the two to-be-communicated devices with the highest priority avoid the obstacle or not, if so, it is determined that the positions where the communication lines with the two to-be-communicated devices with the highest priority avoid the obstacle are communication relay positions, otherwise, the step C4 is returned to search for the positions where the other communication lines with the two to-be-communicated devices with the highest priority avoid the obstacle.
The embodiment determines two points with the highest priority first, then finds the communication relay C point of the two points, and then further verifies whether an obstacle exists between the connection lines from the C point to other communication points, if no obstacle exists, the C point is established, and if an obstacle exists, the C point is returned to the above step to continuously determine the position of the C point, so that the flight control of the aircraft serving as the communication relay in the multi-point communication is realized.
In another embodiment, as shown in fig. 8, the method further comprises:
and step C5, storing the position where each communication line between the communication line and the two devices to be communicated with the highest priority level found in the step C4 avoids the obstacle, and forming a first position set.
In some embodiments, the positions where each communication line between the two devices to be communicated found in step C4 and the randomly selected two devices to be communicated avoids the obstacle may be stored, forming a first set of positions.
Step C8, when no position where the communication line with each of the devices to be communicated avoids the obstacle is found finally, selecting a position where the communication line with the largest number of devices to be communicated avoids the obstacle from the first position set as a communication relay position.
According to the scheme, the positions of the C points for establishing communication are stored for two points with the highest priority each time, so that when the connection of n communication points cannot be established finally, the position of the C point which is relatively optimal in all the previous calculation results (for example, a position which can ensure n-1 point communication is found) can be used as a signal relay.
In some embodiments, the communication relay position in the multipoint communication may also be determined by:
acquiring real-time position information of all equipment to be communicated; defining a communication range according to the real-time location information and a preset rule, where the preset rule can be set by a user in a customized manner, for example, a sphere range is determined with a certain distance as a radius around each device to be communicated (the determination of the distance can be determined according to the signal communication distance capability of the communication network), and the sphere ranges of all the devices to be communicated are accumulated to form a summarized communication range; randomly determining a communication relay position within the summarized communication range; the communication relay position is subjected to a communication test to judge whether the position is suitable as a communication relay position, for example, if the position and all the devices to be communicated cannot normally communicate through the test (for example, obstacles exist between the position and all the devices to be communicated or other factors influencing the communication of the position and the devices to be communicated exist), the position is not suitable as the communication relay position, and another communication relay position needs to be selected again until the position suitable as the communication relay position is found. And finally, controlling the aircraft with the communication relay device to fly to the communication relay position, so that the aircraft can be used as a communication relay node at the communication relay position to realize the communication between the devices to be communicated.
Of course, the communication relay position in the multipoint communication may also be determined by other means, which are not listed here.

Step A4, increasing r by a preset step, resetting a to 0, if the increased r after the preset step is less than or equal to a third preset threshold and the distance between the position to be searched and the real-time position of the device to be communicated which is farthest from the position to be searched is less than or equal to a second preset threshold, returning to execute the step A2, otherwise, indicating that the position to be searched does not exist in the area where the device to be communicated is located, wherein the third preset threshold is a value preset according to the communication technology implementation mode and the signal communication distance capability of the communication network.
The above step calculation scheme is explained below with reference to specific embodiments:
because the straight line between the two points is shortest, the shorter the distance of the aircraft position deviating from the connecting line between the two communication sources is, the shorter the distance of the two points through relay communication is (the shorter the communication distance is, the more stable the transmission is, the error rate is low, and the higher transmission rate can be achieved). As shown in fig. 14, it is assumed that two communication sources are respectively an a point and a B point, a distance between an AB link is L, a midpoint of the AB link is a Y point, a position of the aircraft is a C point, and a vertical distance between the aircraft and the AB link is d. According to mathematical theory, the smaller d is, the smaller AC + BC is, the distance between the point C and a plane which passes through the point Y and is vertical to the line AB is a, and the smaller a is, the smaller AC + BC is. The radius r of the cylinder in fig. 14 is d as described above. Suppose that the aircraft has a set maximum signal transmission distance dmax. The three-dimensional composition is calculated as follows:
the method comprises the following steps: initially taking r as 0; a is 0.
Step two: connecting a point A with a point C set (the point C set is initially a point, and is followed by two circles, namely two circles which are positioned on two sides of the point Y and pass through the point Y and are perpendicular to the AB connecting line and have a plane distance a), and also connecting a point B with a point C set (a specific composition mode can adopt a point connection mode, and a cone of the point A with the point C set and a cone of the point B with the point C set are also constructed to determine whether the point A overlaps with a three-dimensional obstacle model in a map), if a point C position exists, so that the AC and BC connecting lines do not pass through a three-dimensional graph of an obstacle, determining the point C, enabling an aircraft to fly to the point C as a signal relay, and ending the process, and when r is 0; when a is 0, point C is point Y, which corresponds to no obstacle between AB, and point C is only taken at point Y in AB. If there is no such C point location, the process jumps to step three.
It should be noted that, when r ≠ 0 and a ≠ 0, there may be many C points, and in this embodiment, the C point is calculated by stepping r and a, and actually the first found C point is the optimal or near-optimal communication relay point.
Step three: depending on the technical implementation and communication distance capabilities of the radio signal, values such as m 1, 5, 10 meters, etc. may be taken, and if a ≦ a, the value of m may be determined empirically and experimentallymax(amaxA is a set threshold value which has a direct relation with the distance L between two points AB and the communication distance capability of the signalmax0.5l, 0.7l, etc., amaxToo large may result in unnecessary calculations, while too small may reduce the success rate of communication establishment in parts of particular terrain, amaxIs determined experimentally as an optimum value), and
Figure BDA0001245656630000141
(the longer distance between the AC and the BC needs to be less than or equal to the set maximum signal transmission distance of the aircraft), returning to the step two (judging whether the C point position exists after the step m is increased by the step two, so that the connecting line of the AC and the BC does not pass through the three-dimensional graph of the barrier); otherwise, jumping to the fourth step.
Step four: according to the technical implementation mode and the communication distance capability of the wireless signal, a value of n is 1 meter, 5 meters, 10 meters and the like, and a is reset to 0 (namely, the C point is searched from the central position again); if r is less than or equal to rmax(rmaxFor a set threshold, i.e. the maximum distance the aircraft can deviate from the AB line, the signal communication distance capability d needs to be taken into accountmaxAccording to the triangle principle, rmaxIs necessarily less than dmaxCan be taken out of rmaxThe maximum value d can be obtained when the total number is 100 meters, 150 meters and the likemaxIf too small, the amount of the catalyst will be reduced to a part of the specific rangeSuccess rate of communication establishment in terrain, rmaxIs determined experimentally as an optimum value), and
Figure BDA0001245656630000142
(r does not exceed d after steppingmax) Returning to the second step (judging whether a C point position exists after the stepping m is added or not by the second step so that the AC and BC connecting lines do not pass through the three-dimensional graph of the barrier); if r is>rmaxIf the aircraft is in the set range, the fact that the point C does not exist in the set range can be used as a signal relay to inform a user that the connection cannot be established under the current condition and the aircraft does not take off.
The general calculation idea of the scheme is as follows: and (3) firstly, keeping the r unchanged, increasing the step of the a, judging whether the point C exists or not by going to the step two each time until the a exceeds the set value, then returning the a to 0, then increasing the step of the r, then increasing the step of the a again for searching, and if the r also exceeds the set value, indicating that the point C meeting the requirement cannot be found.
For another example, a is first unchanged, the step of r is increased, whether the point C exists is judged in step two each time until r exceeds the set value, r is returned to 0, then the step of a is increased, then r is increased again to search until a also exceeds the set value, and it means that the point C meeting the requirement cannot be found:
step B1, initially taking r as 0, where a is 0, where r denotes a vertical distance of a connection line between the location to be searched and the real-time locations of the two devices to be communicated, and a denotes a distance of the location to be searched from a plane passing through a midpoint of the connection line between the real-time locations of the two devices to be communicated and perpendicular to the connection line between the real-time locations of the two devices to be communicated.
Step B2, searching the position where the communication line with each device to be communicated avoids the obstacle, if the position exists, determining the position as a communication relay position, otherwise, executing step B3.
And B3, increasing r by a preset step, if the increased r after the preset step is less than or equal to a third preset threshold value and the distance between the position to be searched and the real-time position of the device to be communicated which is farthest away from the position to be searched is less than or equal to a second preset threshold value, returning to execute the step B2, otherwise executing the step B4, wherein the second preset threshold value is the maximum signal transmission distance of the aircraft, and the third preset threshold value is a value preset according to the communication technology implementation mode and the signal communication distance capability of the communication network.
And B4, increasing a preset step by a preset step, resetting r to 0, returning to execute the step B2 if a after the preset step is increased is less than or equal to a first preset threshold and the distance between the position to be searched and the real-time position of the device to be communicated which is farthest from the position to be searched is less than or equal to a second preset threshold, otherwise, indicating that the position to be searched does not exist in the area where the device to be communicated is located, wherein the first preset threshold is a value preset according to the distance between the real-time positions of the devices to be communicated and the signal communication distance capability of the communication network.
The step calculation method of this embodiment is also applicable to the schemes of embodiment 4 and embodiment 5.

This method ensures that the relay points obtained are always the best position.
The corpus search method of the present embodiment is also applicable to the schemes of embodiments 4 and 5.
It should be noted that, in embodiments 3 to 7, after the aircraft serves as a communication relay of a communication network between two or more devices to be communicated at the communication relay position, each communication source still uploads its own position in real time. If one or more moving communication sources exist in each communication source, the aircraft calculates the optimal relay point position in real time so as to ensure the optimization of the C point at any time, thereby ensuring the optimization of networking. And if the position information of the communication source is not changed, stopping calculation, hovering at the current point C, and carrying out relay transmission of data.
