Description

Autonomous type underwater robot field source searching method and system based on gradient estimation
Technical field
The invention belongs to control engineering and optimization field, and in particular in the case where can not accurately obtain signal field gradient Based on gradient estimation autonomous type underwater robot field source searching method and system.
Background technology
Tellurian ocean area takes up an area the 71% of ball surface product, and wherein deep-sea marine site of the depth of water more than 500 meters accounts for sea again 85% or more of the foreign gross area.Be richly stored with mineral resources, petroleum resources, living resources etc. in the marine site of deep-sea, but the mankind To the understanding in this piece field also in the very primary stage.Since 21st century, countries in the world gradually recognize that deep-sea is opened The importance of hair, the input in deep-sea field are continuously increased, and the deep-sea competition of world's level is also increasingly fierce.A workman wants to do his work well, The research of must first sharpen his tools, deep sea equipment is also carried out like a raging fire, due to marine environment obtain it is complicated and changeable, only with manpower carry out Deep-sea exploration is filled with dangerous and uncertainty, therefore people also highlight deep-sea underwater Man's Demands.A variety of In underwater robot, autonomous type underwater robot (AUV) is small with its, memory space is big, flexibility is strong, degree of intelligence is high etc. Advantage obtains the favor of people.Therefore, the research for carrying out field source search to unknown marine site using AUV, gradually causes expert The concern of scholars, wherein field source may be aquatic organism, electromagnetic signal emitter, chemical contamination source etc., so field source is searched for It covers including problems such as biology positioning, aircraft black box search, pollution sources search.
When carrying out the field source search of underwater signal field using AUV, since location of source in marine site and signal field distribution are unknown, AUV further determines that direction of advance firstly the need of estimation location of source.It is passed in a kind of field intensity signal with increasing away from field source distance In the signal field subtracted, field source position is the maximum position of field strength, and therefore, field source search problem can utilize optimization problem model It is solved.In fact, optimization problem has been a more mature research field, optimization method includes gradient method, newton Method etc..Compared to many advanced optimization methods, gradient method is one kind compared with based on.Moreover, compared to the second order of signal field Gradient information (i.e. Hessian matrix Hessian matrixes) and other order of information, the accuracy higher of signal field gradient estimation, meter Calculation amount smaller, therefore, the application of gradient method is more extensive.By taking linear second-order system as an example, Attouch et al., which has studied, to be carried The heavy ball system of frictional force using the control method for inputting speed damping term and gradient terms as the heavy ball system, and proves Under the action of this control method, which has good Properties of Optimization, but this control method is to rely on two Obtained from the linear system model of rank, and convergence rate is slower.Alvarez et al. extends gradient descent method, A kind of control method is devised in conjunction with newtonian dynamics system and with the characteristics of friction heavy ball system, while there is above two control The characteristics of fast convergence of method processed and flexibility.Signal field gradient information is introduced in control method can effectively realize mesh Mark optimization, therefore, accurate gradient information is most important.Since gradient information cannot directly be obtained by the sensor assembled on AUV , related scholars devise a series of gradient method of estimation, wherein the method for estimation that Rosero et al. is used is for double The distributed consensus filtering method that integrating system designs;The artificial non-equilibrium volume the car design such as Frihauf and Jinbiao Pole searches for (extremum seeking) method.But since these methods of estimation all design to obtain according to particular model, Once being applied in the kinetic model of AUV, it can not necessarily ensure the stability of AUV systems.In contrast, Arranz et al. The gradient method of estimation of design is the method independently of the system model involved by task, is more suitable for expansion and is applied to AUV systems In.This method designs the multiple autonomous intelligent bodies for being equipped with sensor, such as AUV or unmanned plane form round formation, these Autonomous intelligent body is uniformly distributed circumferentially, the signal that the gradient in the center of circle obtains measured by each circumference autonomous intelligent body Field intensity information weighting obtains.The shortcomings that this method, is essence of the gradient estimation dependent on autonomous intelligent body formation control Degree, once autonomous intelligent body cannot meet formation, then the gradient accuracy estimated can be greatly reduced, and can not ensure that field source is searched The completion of rope task.
In general optimization problem, AUV kinetic models are usually simplified, such as Arranz et al. distinguishes AUV It is reduced to first-order linear model or second-order linearity model, the design and analysis of such AUV control methods have obtained greatly simplifying. But in fact, AUV is the truncated quadratic nonlinear models with hydrodynamics of coupling, in the control method designed for simplified model Under the action of, larger change may occur for performance.For the advanced dynamic model of AUV, there is a large amount of research to concentrate on Its motion control method, such as Elmokadem et al. have used sliding-mode control, Sahu et al. to use self adaptive control side Method, Cervantes et al. has used the design of Backstepping progress control method, but these methods are laid particular emphasis on and carried out using AUV The tracking for knowing position, there are no be extended to in unknown field source search mission.

1-2) determine the object function of Optimized model;
In field source search problem, on the one hand AUV is required to reach at the field source of signal field, present invention contemplates that in two dimension The signal field being distributed in plane, on the other hand requires that AUV remains at certain altitude and certain posture scans for, two mesh The vector target function that mark constitutes AUV field source chess game optimization models is as follows:
Wherein, η1=[x y]T, η2=[z φ θ ψ]T,zdIt is preset AUV ideal heights, [φd θd ψd]TFor preset AUV ideal poses.
It is assumed that the origin of field source to be searched in the xoy planes of terrestrial coordinate system, then h (η1) and AUV three-dimensional space positions Two norm ‖ η1‖ is inversely proportional.It can be seen that two component f of object function f (η)1(η) and f2The decision variable of (η) is AUV State, actually one-component f1(η), second component f related with the position of AUV in two dimensional surface2(η) only and AUV Height it is related with posture, the two is embodied as second equal sign right-hand side expression.Since signal field distribution information is unknown, Function h (η1) concrete form can not directly write out, convert optimization problem to minimum objective function problem, h (η1) can be with table Show AUV in plan-position η1The negative logarithm of the signal field strength at place, at this point, two component f of object function1(η) and f2(η) is equal For strong convex function, object function f (η) has unique minimum point, is denoted as η*

Include following three assumed condition in this optimization problem model, one is directed to AUV system models, and two other is directed to The object function of optimization, it is specific as follows:
1-3-1) AUV states are assumed:The state vector η of AUV is maintained at nonsingular state.
1-3-2) vector target function is assumed:Function h (η1) Second Order Continuous can be micro-, Hessian matrix (Hessian) is expressed as Hh (η), f1The Hessian of (η) is expressed as Hf 1(η), and two Hessian matrix boundeds.
This condition needs to use when analyzing the stability of AUV systems, and which limit the speed of signal field signal intensity.It is real The signal field signal of nature may be discrete on border, but certain regularity is presented in its discrete distribution, can pass through Smoothing method handles signal field, therefore disclosure satisfy that the hypothesis.
1-3-3) vector target function is assumed:h(η1) be forcing function, i.e., as ‖ η1When ‖ → ∞, h (η1)→∞.This condition The stability analysis of system is applied equally to, although since signal field is unknown, function h (η1) concrete form be unable to get, but It is that this condition can be met by the relationship between design function value and signal field strength, it is the present positions AUV such as to take functional value Signal field strength negative logarithm.
2) it according to the demand of field source search mission, determines the model of AUV, and sensor is installed;
Before formally starting field source search mission, AUV is upper will to carry out a series of preparations, including AUV is selected, is multiple The installation etc. of sensor.The model selection of AUV is decided by the submerged depth of this required by task, as needed AUV in the present embodiment Submerged depth be 500 meters~1000 meters between, therefore select AUV models REMUS-600;Detection marine site is equipped on AUV The sensor of signal field field intensity signal, sensor type and model selection are determined also according to specific field source search mission, such as this In embodiment, the pt100 temperature sensors in deep-sea hydrothermal source are measured, measure Hydrothermal plumes concentration is integrated with Eh and PH electricity The multi-parameter chemical sensor of pole.After AUV enters water, respective sensor also enters in water, former according to the work of sensor itself Reason, can obtain the signal strength angle value of current time current location, and sent out in the form of digital signal.Sensor number Amount is determined by the accuracy requirement of the field source positioning of the carrying ability and field source search mission of selected AUV.
AUV main bodys and around install and pass centered on n+1 sensor, including 1 sensor in the AUV main bodys Sensor is denoted as 0, n edge sensor and is denoted as 1,2,3...n;In the xoy planes of terrestrial coordinate system, central sensor 0, peace It in the main body of AUV, rigidly fixes and connect with AUV, be expressed as p0, then have p01;It is origin with central sensor 0, to work as The forward speed direction of preceding AUV is y-axis, the x-axis coordinate system normal thereto for establishing sensing system;Edge sensor 1,2,3..n Positioned at being the center of circle with central sensor 0, radius is r and y-axis coordinate is more than or equal on 0 semicircle, and is uniformly distributed, two neighboring The central angle constituted between edge sensor is equal, and position vector of the note edge sensor under terrestrial coordinate system is pi, i=1, 2 ..., n are the number of edge sensor, then the distance of position satisfaction to the sensor 0 of edge sensor is identical, adjacent sensors Apart from equal, i.e.,:
Wherein, r indicate arbitrary edge sensor to central sensor distance;
The specific installation method of sensor is as shown in Fig. 2, for assembling 5 sensors in the present embodiment, including 1 position In AUV central sensors, it is denoted as 0,4 edge sensors and is denoted as 1,2,3,4.In the xoy planes of terrestrial coordinate system, center passes Sensor 0, in the main body of AUV, specific location is determined by the structure design of the AUV, is expressed as p0, then have p01;In Heart sensor 0 is origin, using the forward speed direction of current AUV as y-axis, the x-axis coordinate normal thereto for establishing sensing system System;It with central sensor 0 is the center of circle that edge sensor 1,2,3,4, which is located at, using x-axis as on the semicircle of diameter, and is uniformly distributed, phase The central angle that adjacent two edge sensors are constituted is 60 degree, and position vector of the note edge sensor under terrestrial coordinate system is pi, i=1,2 ..., n are the number of edge sensor, and n=4, expression here shares 4 edge sensors, then edge sensor Position meet that the distance to sensor 0 is identical, and adjacent sensors are apart from equal, i.e.,:
Wherein, r indicate arbitrary edge sensor to central sensor distance.The size of r is also by the carrying energy of selected AUV The accuracy requirement of the field source of power and field source search mission positioning determines.
3) AUV carries out field source search mission;
The present invention measures the signal field strength of different location by sensing system, estimates the positions AUV Gradient, then using gradient estimate carry out signal field field source search, be as follows:
Any position for 3-1) selecting marine site to be detected carries out laying for AUV as initial position, enables current time t= t1, water reaches initial position under AUV, and sensor is started to work, and initial position is denoted as to the current location of AUV.
Sensor measurement 3-2) installed on AUV obtains the signal strength angle value of current location, and with digital signal form Send the computing unit of AUV to.
3-3) judge the magnitude relationship of the signal field strength and predetermined field strength threshold value of the current locations AUV, the setting of the threshold value It is related with signal field field source search mission, and certain priori is needed, threshold value setting is too low, can estimate too early into gradient In the meter stage, obtained gradient estimation is inaccurate, and the direction of motion of AUV is made to differ excessive with field source direction;Threshold value setting is excessively high then The speed for slowing down field source search into gradient estimation stages can be lagged, search efficiency is reduced.
If the signal field strength of current location is more than predetermined field strength threshold value, 3-4 is entered step), carry out current time Source gradient estimation;
If the signal field strength of current location is less than predetermined field strength threshold value, AUV carries out U-shaped track to task according to Fig. 3 The inch-by-inch search that initially given marine site to be detected is traversed, i.e., move along a straight line according to AUV initial release states, until The edge AUV for reaching the exploration marine site of Given task rotates 90 degree under body coordinate system;Forward preset distance turns over 90 again Degree, preset distance are determined by the measurement range of the sensor on AUV and the accuracy requirement of field source search mission, if can measure Range is larger, the accuracy requirement of field source search mission is relatively low, then the preset distance is larger, otherwise preset distance reduces;Directly The exploration marine site edge for reaching Given task repeats above-mentioned movement locus.This is passed through in common field source search mission Frequently with method, i.e., in the case of totally unknown to field source information, AUV is scanned for according to certain searching route, Here the method that use is U-typed track search as described above.Until the signal field strength of current location is more than When predetermined field strength threshold value, then U-shaped track search terminates, and enters step 3-4), carry out the field source gradient estimation at current time;
3-4) gradient is estimated;
Current time, note are located at terrestrial coordinate system piThe sensor i (including central sensor and edge sensor) of position Signal field strength measured value be h (pi), by h (pi) carry out Taylor expansion can obtain:
Wherein, h (p0) centered on sensor p0Signal field strength measured value at position,Centered on sensor p0 Gradient at positionTransposition, For higher order term, which is ignored, then can obtain gradient and be estimated as:
Wherein, matrixR is that each edge sensor arrives the distance between central sensor, it is noted that this The one-component of object function is only related with the two dimensional surface position of AUV in invention, therefore:
Wherein,For gradient of the one-component relative to AUV state variables η in object function;p0For sensor 0 Location variable;
The gradient of another component of object function can be obtained by the attitude transducer and positioning system of AUV itself The postures and height of AUV at this time, therefore,It can directly be calculated:
Wherein,For gradient of second component relative to AUV state variables η, η in object function2For AUV itself The attitude vectors of rotary motion,For the expectation posture to AUV itself rotary motions.
3-5) judge whether AUV reaches location of source;
Under normal conditions, the computing unit entrained by AUV can complete step 3-4 moment) in gradient estimated value meter It calculates, therefore at current time, as shown in formula (2), based on the AUV designs for carrying multiple sensors, in the signal for obtaining sensor After field intensity measures, the Grad of current time signal field is calculated in computing unit, at this point, judging the of object function f (η) One-component f1The gradient of (η) is estimatedWith second component f2(η) true gradientWhether it is zero, if the two is equal It is zero, then AUV has reached location of source, and the field source search mission of AUV terminates;If entering there are one being not zero among the two Next step 3-6), motion control is carried out to AUV based on gradient estimation.
AUV motion controls 3-6) based on gradient estimation;
The Grad obtained using estimationWith the Grad being calculatedCurrent time is calculated in AUV Control input, specific control input computational methods are as follows:
