Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention will be more clearly understood. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
FIG. 1 illustrates an airborne synthetic vision system based on terrain real-time rendering, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The onboard synthetic vision system of this embodiment includes: the system comprises a data interface module, an airborne data module and a terrain rendering module.
The data interface module is used for receiving navigation indication information (including data such as longitude, latitude, barometric altitude, radio altitude, selected altitude and the like), speed indication information (including data such as airspeed, vacuum speed, mach number, ground speed, selected speed, lifting speed and the like) and attitude indication information (including data such as heading, pitch angle, roll angle, sideslip angle, track, attack angle and the like) from airborne equipment such as an air engine, ING/GNSS combined navigation and radio through the data interface unit.
An onboard data module for storing onboard data including terrain, obstacle, airport information, e.g. in a built-in memory of the system or in an external storage medium such as SD via a high speed data interface, and arranged to be periodically updated from a data source.
And the terrain rendering module is used for determining the current position of the airplane according to the navigation indication information, reading airborne data in a preset range taking the current position as the center from the airborne data module, calculating and generating 3D graphs and symbols of the terrain, obstacles and the airport, rendering according to the attitude indication information, and outputting 3D picture frames generated by rendering calculation to the main flight display PFD, the multifunctional flight display MFD and the head-up display HUD for display.
When a 3D Terrain graph is generated, the Terrain data is divided according to blocks, namely a Terrain Tertain Tile, one Terrain is used as a rendering basic data structure, and according to the longitude, the latitude and the height of an airplane and the distance between the airplane and the Terrain, the Terrain around the airplane is dynamically loaded, so that the draw calling frequency of OpenGL is reduced, and the rendering efficiency is improved.
In the airborne synthetic vision system according to the embodiment of the invention, the terrain rendering module comprises a terrain classification unit which is used for setting the terrain to different levels according to the size of the terrain and the number of vertexes, and calculating the distance threshold value whether the terrain is loaded or not according to the levels of the terrain. The number of vertices of a plot farther from the aircraft is less than the number of vertices of a plot closer to the aircraft. The plot starts at level 0. Level 0 is the largest plot, spanning 1 degree longitude horizontally and 1 degree latitude vertically. The plot of level 1 is twice as small as the span of the plot of level 0, with a lateral span of 0.5 degrees longitude and a longitudinal span of 0.5 degrees, with 1 plot of level 0 covering exactly 4 plots of level 1. 1 parcel at level 1 covers exactly 4 parcels at level 2. The higher the land parcel level, the smaller the land parcel, the higher the precision, and so on. As shown in fig. 2, the more the land mass from the viewing plane includes the higher-level land mass, the higher the accuracy of the terrain. The land parcels adjacent in the level are in parent-child relationship. All levels of land parcel constitute a quadtree. The root of this quadtree is a 0-level plot. The center point of the land parcel is set as the longitude and latitude center position of the land parcel on the height with the altitude of 0, and when the land parcel needs to be regarded as a whole, the center point is used as the position of the whole land parcel, so that the calculation amount is reduced.
When two adjacent plots are different in level, gaps can occur at the boundary due to the difference of the number of the vertexes of the two plots. Thus, the plot grading unit further adds sidebands to all four edges of each plot, the sidebands extending a distance along the edges of the plot in the direction of the geocenter.
The terrain rendering module also comprises a plot management unit, wherein the plot management unit is used for gradually replacing the plot loaded in a place from a low-level plot to a higher-level plot when the airplane approaches the place, and unloading the low-level plot before loading the high-level plot; as the aircraft flies away from the site, the plot loaded by the site is gradually replaced from a high-level plot to a lower-level plot. Since there are multiple levels of plots at any one location, only the highest level plot of all plots for which the location is less than the distance threshold from the aircraft is always loaded.
The plot management unit is used for maintaining nine 0-level plots forming a nine-grid shape near the current position of the airplane in real time, and dynamically loading and/or unloading a corresponding number of 0-level plots along with the movement of the position of the airplane, so that 9 0-level plots are kept around the airplane and serve as data sources of the rendering queue. Thus, 9 quadtrees are maintained at each time, the nine quadtrees represent information of all plots to be rendered at the current airplane position, the nine palaces (9 0-level maximum plots) are dynamically expanded and recycled along with the change of the airplane position, child nodes (high-level plots) of the tree are created along with the approaching of the airplane position and are destroyed along with the departing of the airplane position, and the 9 quadtrees data structure is used as a data source of a rendering queue.
The terrain rendering module further comprises a terrain loading unit, wherein the terrain loading unit is used for reading terrain elevation information from a terrain data file, converting geographic coordinates (longitude and latitude heights) into earth coordinates (XYZ), generating a terrain vertex grid expressed by the XYZ, generating a terrain vertex normal vector, calculating illumination according to the vertex normal vector to generate vertex colors (which can also be calculated by a GPU), and adding the generated good blocks into a rendering queue. Specifically, the rendering units with the same primitive and the same OpenGL state may be placed in a rendering queue, each frame sequentially renders objects (e.g., parcel) in the rendering queue, and after completion, the queue is emptied, thereby avoiding reduction in rendering efficiency due to frequent OpenGL state machine switching.
The onboard synthetic vision system may further include a terrain height early warning module, configured to obtain an altitude of a location a preset distance ahead of the aircraft from the terrain data, compare the altitude with a current altitude of the aircraft, and display the location with a warning color when the altitude of the location is greater than the current altitude of the aircraft, for example, a dark color area at a highest position in fig. 3.
The terrain rendering module calls a CPU to calculate and generate a plot vertex, and performs conversion calculation, normal vector calculation and color calculation from each vertex of the plot to earth coordinates; calling a GPU to perform batch rendering on data sent by the CPU; when the top point of the land parcel is generated by calculation, the visibility of the land parcel is judged, and when the visibility of the land parcel is smaller than a visible threshold value, the land parcel is not generated and the subsequent calculation of the land parcel is not carried out, so that the unnecessary calculation amount is greatly reduced; and when batch rendering is carried out, in a primitive assembling link of an OpenGL rendering pipeline, back rejection and view cone cutting are carried out, and primitives except the back of the triangle and the view cone are rejected so as to avoid subsequent pipeline flow, thereby reducing the calculation amount and improving the efficiency.
Specifically, the land visibility judgment comprises the steps of selecting a land surrounding body and detecting based on a viewing cone. The decision whether a 3D mesh is visible in the scene is usually computed by bounding volumes of the 3D mesh. Bounding volumes are a great simplification of 3D mesh models, replacing the true geometry of the 3D mesh with bounding volumes to compute its visibility. The enclosure body can be in a cube shape, a sphere shape, and the like according to actual requirements. For the land parcel, considering the simplicity of conversion calculation of the geographic coordinates and the spherical coordinates, selecting a suitable bounding volume as follows: the part of the spherical shell is in a spherical shell shape, the longitude and latitude of 8 vertexes are respectively the longitude and latitude of four points of the west, the east and the north of the parcel, the height of the selected enclosure has two values, the low value is the altitude 0m, and the high value is 8000m which is the slightly larger ascending limit value of the airplane.
When the detection based on the viewing cone is carried out, the eight vertexes of the land surrounding body are used for testing six cutting surfaces (far, near, left, right, upper and lower sections) one by one, if all the vertexes are positioned outside one or more cutting surfaces, the land surrounding body is invisible, and the land is discarded. Specifically, a byte is applied to each vertex, each bit of the byte corresponds to a cutting surface, if the vertex is out of the cutting surface, the bit corresponding to the corresponding vertex is assigned with 1, and if not, the bit is assigned with 0; if the logical AND result of the 8 vertex output codes is nonzero, the bounding volume is off-screen, namely the plot is invisible; if the logical and result of the 8 vertex output codes is zero, it indicates that at least one vertex is within the view frustum, which is considered to be a parcel. If further optimization is needed, the bounding volume grid can be considered to be clipped, and when the logical or result of the 8 vertex output codes is zero (i.e. all 8 points are 0), all the points are in the view frustum, and the volume is determined to be visible.
In various embodiments, the terrain data file stored by the on-board data module may employ the spacecraft radar terrain mapping mission SRTM spacecraft project data of the national aerospace agency NASA. The format is as follows: a single file covers one degree of precision and one degree of latitude with a resolution of 1201x1201 points. The landmass of different levels has different numbers of vertexes with different sizes, and does not have point-to-point one-to-one correspondence with the SRTM topographic data file. Therefore, when reading terrain data into the altitudes of the vertices that generate plots of varying sizes, it is necessary to use an interpolation algorithm between several peripheral altitude data points. In addition, in order to reduce the frequency of opening, reading and closing the terrain data file, a cache unit is further arranged, and when a terrain block needs to sample the terrain data file, whether the cached terrain data exists in the cache unit is checked firstly.
