Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Example one
The embodiment of the invention provides a fault tolerance control method for a quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle, which comprises the following steps of:
s1, when part of motors of the unmanned aerial vehicle have faults, obtaining fault information of the fault motors;
s2, optimizing control distribution information of the four motors according to the fault information, and enabling virtual control instructions of the four motors to be in a linear relation with the postures and heights to be achieved by the unmanned aerial vehicle; the virtual control instruction is a control instruction which is calculated by the unmanned aerial vehicle flight control system according to user operation;
s3, distributing the virtual control instructions of the four motors according to the optimized control distribution information to obtain actual control instructions of the four motors;
and S4, controlling the unmanned aerial vehicle to reach the required attitude and height according to the actual control instruction.
It should be noted that, the flight principle of the quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle is to change the attitude of the aircraft by changing the rotating speeds of the four motors. The rotation speed of the motor is changed by changing the duty ratio of the PWM signal, the raising force and the torque generated by the motor are changed after the rotation speed of the motor is changed, and simultaneously, the torque in the roll direction, the torque in the pitch direction and the counter torque in the yaw direction are determined according to the position distribution of the motor of the four rotors. The change of the Roll direction and the pitch direction generates the linear speed of the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction of the airplane, the change of the yaw angle is the change of the heading direction of the airplane, and the change of the lift generates the change of the Z-axis direction of the airplane, namely the change of the height.
Wherein, the body coordinate system is defined as: the origin is taken at the mass center of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and a coordinate system is fixedly connected with the body; the X axis is parallel to the longitudinal axis designed by the machine body, is positioned in the symmetrical plane of the unmanned aerial vehicle and points to the front; the Y axis is vertical to the symmetry plane of the unmanned aerial vehicle and points to the right; the Z axis is in the unmanned aerial vehicle symmetry plane, and perpendicular to X axis point down. The entire coordinate system conforms to the euler coordinate system right hand rule. The ground coordinate system, i.e. the inertial coordinate system, is defined as: using the North-east-Earth coordinate system, the XE axis points to the North, the YE axis points to the east, and the ZE axis points to the Earth's center. The ground coordinate system is a coordinate system in the environment of the simulation experiment.
And the unmanned aerial vehicle distributes the virtual control instruction generated by the user operation into the actual control instruction of each motor through the control distribution information. Under the condition that four motors are normal, the control distribution information is a fixed value and is not changed. However, when some motors of the unmanned aerial vehicle are out of order, the motors cannot correctly respond to the actual distributed control instructions, that is, the motors cannot adjust the same control instructions to the corresponding rotating speeds, and cannot meet the control requirements, so that the control distribution information needs to be optimally redistributed.
When part of motors of the unmanned aerial vehicle have faults, fault information of the fault motors is acquired firstly, a virtual control instruction generated by user operation is calculated through a flight control system, and the height and the posture of the unmanned aerial vehicle are obtained through an execution mechanism. In order for the drone to reach its intended height and attitude, the resolved virtual control commands and the drone's height and attitude must be in a linear relationship. Therefore, the control distribution information is adjusted according to the fault information, the calculated virtual control instruction and the height and the attitude of the unmanned aerial vehicle meet the linear relation, and the optimized control distribution information is obtained. The virtual control instruction generated by user operation is distributed into the actual control instruction of each motor through the optimized control distribution information, so that each motor drives the unmanned aerial vehicle to reach the height and the posture to be reached according to the actual control instruction, the controllability of the posture and the height of the unmanned aerial vehicle is ensured, the stability of the posture of the unmanned aerial vehicle is maintained, and accidents are avoided.
Further, when unmanned aerial vehicle's partial motor broke down, acquire trouble motor's fault information, specifically include:
detecting four motors of the unmanned aerial vehicle in real time;
when part of motors of the unmanned aerial vehicle have faults, calculating the ratio of the output of the fault motor to the output of the fault-free motor, wherein the ratio is fault information of the fault motor;
and constructing a fault information matrix according to the fault information of the fault motor.
It should be noted that, when some motors of the unmanned aerial vehicle are out of order, the output values of the four motors, that is, the efficiencies of the motors, are obtained. The efficiency of the motor that has not failed, i.e., the normal motor, is set to 1. The efficiency of the failed motor is degraded, so that the efficiency of the failed motor is a quantized value of the output of the failed motor with respect to the normal output, that is, failure information of the failed motor. The efficiencies of the four motors are respectively expressed as h1、h2、h3、h4So as to construct a fault information matrix H ═ diag [ H ═ H1,h2,h3,h4]。
Further, the control distribution information of the four motors is optimized according to the fault information, so that the virtual control instructions of the four motors and the attitude and height to be reached by the unmanned aerial vehicle are in a linear relationship, and the method specifically comprises the following steps:
according to an optimization formula, enabling the virtual control instructions of the four motors to be in a linear relation with the attitude and the height which are required to be reached by the unmanned aerial vehicle, and calculating an optimized control distribution matrix according to a control distribution matrix in normal and the fault information matrix, wherein the optimized control distribution matrix is optimized control distribution information;
the relational formula is as follows:
wherein,is a virtual control command for four motors,and M is a control distribution matrix in normal time, H is a fault information matrix, and N is an optimized control distribution matrix for the height and the attitude to be reached by the unmanned aerial vehicle.
It should be noted that, due to the rotation of the motor, the lift generated by the blade is proportional to the square of the rotation speed w of the motor, and the total lift is:
the resultant moment in the roll direction is:
the resultant moment in the Pitch direction is:
the resultant moment in the Yaw direction is:
through the analysis, the lifting force and the moment are in direct proportion to the square of the rotating speed, and the lifting force and the moment are obtained by sorting:
wherein, KTwIs the coefficient of blade tension, KQwIs the blade torque coefficient, r1、r2、r3、r4Respectively, the projection of the distances from the centers of the four rotors to the X axis on the XY plane,/1、l2、l3、l4Respectively, the projection of the distances from the centers of the four rotors to the y axis on the xy plane, w1、w2、w3、w4The rotational speeds of the four motors respectively.
Order matrixThen there are:
u-a Ω, i.e., Ω -a-1U。
And the control command is in linear relation with the poplar force and the torque, then M is equal to A-1. Because matrix A is that unmanned aerial vehicle geometry is definite, can not change again, consequently when the motor all is in normal condition, M is the definite value.
In the event of failure of a part of the motor, isIn order to makeAndin a linear relationship, thenA diagonal matrix is necessary. WhileFor a known value, an optimized control distribution matrix N, i.e., optimized control distribution information, may be calculated.
Further, the allocating the virtual control instructions of the four motors according to the optimized control allocation information to obtain the actual control instructions of the four motors specifically includes:
distributing the optimized control distribution information to the virtual control instructions of the four motors by adopting a distribution formula to obtain actual control instructions of the four motors;
the distribution formula is as follows:
wherein,the actual control commands of the four distributed motors are obtained.
Further, according to the actual control instruction control unmanned aerial vehicle reaches required gesture and height, specifically include:
adjusting the rotating speeds of the four motors according to the actual control instruction, so that the four motors drive the unmanned aerial vehicle to reach the required posture and height; the attitude includes pitch, roll and yaw.
It should be noted that, the unmanned aerial vehicle distributes virtual control instructions to the actuating mechanism according to the user operation, and the rotating speed of the motor in the actuating mechanism changes, which causes the change of the lifting force and the moment, so that the height and the posture of the unmanned aerial vehicle change, and the height and the posture to be reached by the unmanned aerial vehicle are reached.
The method of the embodiment of the invention is utilized to carry out simulation experiments.
The Roll channel gives a step signal with the amplitude of 0.2 radian at 1s, and the set values of other channels are all 0.

It can be seen from fig. 4 that when the motor 1 fails, the original system is completely uncontrollable, the control command and the motor speed both exceed the limit values, and the system diverges. It can be seen from fig. 5 that after the control distribution matrix is optimized, only the control instruction corresponding to the motor 1 is added when a fault occurs, so that the motor 1 can reach the same rotating speed as the motor 3 after the fault occurs, and the airplane is completely controllable.
