Detailed ways

The specific embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, but not to limit the present disclosure.

First, the UAV business management system provided by the present disclosure for the UAV operator to manage the UAV will be described. The UAV business management system is connected to the external airspace management center. The airspace management center is connected to at least two UAV business management systems, and each UAV business management system includes a UAV business management module and a UAV. Traffic Management Module. In the present disclosure, the airspace management center is connected with two UAV business management systems as an example for description. In practical applications, the airspace management center can manage systems with a larger number of UAVs according to actual needs, which is not limited in this disclosure.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a drone service management system according to an exemplary embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1 , the airspace management center 30 may be connected to the UAV business management system 10 and the UAV business management system 20 respectively. The drone business management system 10 may include a drone business management module 101 and a drone traffic management module 102, and the drone business management system 20 may include a drone business management module 201 and a drone traffic management module 202. It is worth noting that the functions of the drone business management module 101 and the drone business management module 201 are the same, and the functions of the drone traffic management module 102 and the drone traffic management module 202 are the same. The management module 101 and the UAV traffic management module 102 are taken as examples for description and explanation.

The drone business management module 101 is used to control the first target drone 103 to perform the first business, obtain the current flight information of the first target drone 103, and send the current flight information to the drone traffic management module 102 . Among them, each UAV business management system has its own UAV to be managed. Therefore, the UAV business management module 101 controls the first target when receiving the first business issued by the UAV operator. The drone 103 executes the first service, acquires the current flight information of the first target drone 103 , and sends the current flight information to the drone traffic management module 102 .

The UAV traffic management module 102 is in communication connection with the airspace management center 30, and is used for receiving the current flight information of the first target UAV 103 from the UAV business management module 101 and sending it to the airspace management center 30, so as to enable other unmanned aerial vehicles The UAV traffic management module (for example, the UAV traffic management module 202 in FIG. 1 ) in the man-machine business management system can obtain the current status of the first target UAV 103 performing the first business from the airspace management center 30 . flight information. Similarly, the UAV traffic management module (for example, the UAV traffic management module 202 in FIG. 1 ) in other UAV business management systems may also record the current flight of the second target UAV 203 performing the second business The information is sent to the airspace management center 30 . In this way, the airspace management center 30 stores the current flight information of the target UAV performing each service.

It should be noted that the second service and the first service belong to different drone operators. For example, as shown in FIG. 1 , if the first drone operator 50 is a drone distribution operator, the first business is the delivery business, and the second drone operator 60 is a drone forest fire prevention operator. Then the second business is forest fire prevention business.

In one embodiment, the airspace management center 30 stores the current flight information of the target UAV performing each service, and will forward the current flight information of the target UAV performing each service to the UAV service management system. In this embodiment, the UAV traffic management module 102 may receive the second service for executing the second service in other UAV service management systems (eg, the UAV service management system 20 in FIG. 1 ) from the airspace management center 30 . the current flight information of the target drone 203, and then control the flight of the first target drone 103 according to the received current flight information of the second target drone 203 and the current flight information of the first target drone 103 to carry out the first business.

It is worth noting that, in order to ensure the flight safety of the drone, the flight range of the drone is usually defined, that is, the airspace used by the drone. For example, the drone business management system will register the airspace management with the airspace management center 30, And apply for managing the airspace used by the drones it manages, so that the airspace management center 30 can allocate the airspace used by the drones it manages for each drone business management system. Therefore, in another embodiment, the airspace management center 30 may further determine whether the second target UAV is located in the first target UAV according to the current flight information of the first target UAV and the current flight information of the second target UAV In the airspace where the target drone is to be used.

For example, the airspace management center 30 may determine whether the second target UAV 203 is currently located in the airspace to be used by the first target UAV 103 according to the current flight information of the second target UAV 203, or estimate that the second target UAV 203 is currently located in the airspace to be used by the first target UAV 103. Whether the target drone 203 is likely to be located in the airspace where the first target drone 103 is to be used, and so on. And after it is determined that the second target drone 203 is currently located in the airspace where the first target drone 103 is to be used, or it is estimated that the second target drone 203 may be located in the first target drone 103 to be used When the airspace management center 30 is in the airspace where the first target drone 103 is to be used, the airspace management center 30 can send prompt information to the UAV traffic management module 102 , where the prompt information is used to prompt the second target UAV 203 to be located in the airspace to be used by the first target UAV 103 . Correspondingly, in this embodiment, the UAV traffic management module 102 receives the prompt information, and controls the first target UAV 103 to fly to execute the first target UAV 103 according to the prompt information and the current flight information of the first target UAV 103 business. For example, the first target drone 103 may be controlled to travel at a lower speed to avoid collision with the second target drone 203 .

In addition, after receiving the prompt information, the UAV traffic management module 102 may further obtain the current flight of the second target UAV 203 located in the airspace to be used by the first target UAV 103 from the airspace management center 30 information, and then according to the current flight information of the second target drone 203 and the current flight information of the first target drone 103, adjust the control of the first target drone 103 in time to avoid the drone from colliding, Improve the flight safety of the drone. It should be noted that the control of the first target UAV 103 may be specifically adjusted according to the actual situation, which is not specifically limited in the present disclosure.

By adopting the above technical solution, the airspace management center can be connected with multiple UAV business management systems, and the UAV traffic management module in the UAV business management system can receive the information of the first target UAV from the UAV business management module. The current flight information is sent to the airspace management center, and the current flight information and/or prompt information of the second target UAV executing the second service in other UAV service management systems is received from the airspace management center. In this way, the UAV traffic management module can receive the current flight information and/or prompt information of UAVs in other UAV business management systems through the airspace management center, realizing the interconnection of different UAV business management systems. . In addition, the UAV traffic management module may further control the flight of the first target UAV to execute the flight according to the current flight information and/or prompt information of the second target UAV and the current flight information of the first target UAV The first business, in this way, avoids the collision of the drone and improves the flight safety of the drone.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 1 , the UAV traffic management module 102 may also communicate with other service platforms 40 (eg, a weather service platform, an air control area platform), so that the UAV traffic management module 102 adjusts or plans The flight path can be adjusted or planned with reference to weather and air control areas.

In the present disclosure, the current flight information may include at least one of current flight speed, current position information, and current flight path.

In one embodiment, the current flight information includes current location information, and at least one drone of the drone operator sends the current flight information of the drone itself to the drone business management module; drone business management The module is also used to determine the first service and the relevant position information of the first service in response to the needs of the user of the drone operator, and according to the relevant position information of the first service and the current flight information of the drone, at least one A first target UAV that is determined to perform the first business among the UAVs.

For example, as shown in FIG. 1 , assuming that the first drone operator 50 is a drone delivery operator, when a user of the drone delivery operator needs to use drones to perform delivery services, correspondingly, no one The machine service management module 101 can determine that the service to be executed is the delivery service, and determine the relevant location information of the delivery service. Wherein, the relevant location information of the delivery service may include location information for picking up objects, location information for item delivery, and the like. After that, the drone service management module 101 determines that the first target for executing the first service is unmanned in at least one drone according to the current location information, the picking location information and/or the item delivery location information of the drone. Machine 103. For example, the drone service management module 101 may determine the drone closest to the pickup location and/or the item delivery location as the first target drone 103 .

Correspondingly, the UAV traffic management module 102 is further configured to, according to the current position information of the second target UAV 203, the current position information of the first target UAV 103 and the relevant position information of the first service, be the first target. The UAV plans a flight path, and sends the flight path to the UAV service management module 101 . After that, after receiving the flight path of the first target UAV 103, the UAV service management module 101 sends the first target UAV 103 an instruction to execute the first service and the flight path, so that the first target is unmanned The aircraft 103 flies according to the flight path. Wherein, the path planning can be performed with the existing related technologies, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure, as long as it is ensured that the first target UAV 103 does not interact with the second target UAV 203 during the process of executing the first business according to the planned flight path. Just collide.

It should be noted that when there are multiple first target drones 103 performing the first service, the multiple first target drones 103 may communicate with each other through V2X, Bluetooth, or the like. In this way, when the communication between one of the first target drones 103 and the drone business management module 101 is abnormal, the other first target drones 103 can also communicate with the drone business management module 101 to ensure that no one The reliability of the communication between the aircraft and the UAV business management module.

In a possible implementation manner, as shown in FIG. 1 , the first target drone 103 performing the first service may also establish a communication connection with the second target drone 203 performing the second service, so that the first target The drone 103 is further configured to receive the current flight information of the second target drone 203 , and send the current flight information of the second target drone 203 to the airspace management center 30 .

In this embodiment, the second target UAV 203 can send its own current flight information to the airspace management via the UAV business management module 201 and the UAV traffic management module 202 in the UAV business management system 20 The center 30 can also send its own current flight information to the airspace management center via the first target UAV 103 , the UAV business management module 101 and the UAV traffic management module 102 in the UAV business management system 10 30. In practical application, the second target UAV 203 can preferably send its current flight information to the airspace management center via the UAV business management module 201 and the UAV traffic management module 202 in the UAV business management system 20 30. When the communication quality between the second target UAV 203 and the UAV service management module 201 drops below a predetermined threshold, the second target UAV 203 manages the UAV service via the first target UAV 103 and the UAV service management module 201. The UAV business management module 101 and the UAV traffic management module 102 in the system 10 send their current flight information to the airspace management center 30 .

Similarly, when the communication quality between the first target drone 103 and the drone service management module 101 drops below a predetermined threshold, the first target drone 103 can also use the second target drone 203, The drone business management module 201 and the drone traffic management module 202 in the drone business management system 20 send their current flight information to the airspace management center 30 . In this way, the UAV traffic management module 102 can acquire the current flight information of the first target UAV 103 from the airspace management center 30 .

By adopting the above technical solution, since the target UAVs performing different services can communicate with each other, the communication channels between the UAV and the UAV business management module and the UAV traffic management module are added to further ensure the UAVs. Communication reliability of business management systems.

When the first service is a delivery service, the drone service management system 10 may further include ground delivery capacity equipment 104 . As shown in FIG. 2 , when the first target UAV 103 detects the ground distribution capacity equipment 104 , it establishes a communication connection with the ground distribution capacity equipment 104 , and controls the ground distribution capacity equipment 104 to perform at least part of the tasks of the distribution business. Wherein, the ground distribution capacity equipment 104 may be, for example, an unmanned transmission track, a distribution robot, an unmanned distribution vehicle, and the like.

Specifically, when the first target UAV 103 detects the ground distribution capacity equipment 104, it can establish a communication connection with the ground distribution capacity equipment 104, and automatically dock with the ground distribution capacity equipment 104. After the connection is successful, The delivery items can be delivered to the ground delivery capacity equipment 104 to deliver the items to the agreed delivery location through the ground delivery capacity equipment 104 . In one embodiment, after the first target drone 103 delivers the delivery item to the ground distribution capacity equipment 104 and sends the location information of the agreed delivery location to the ground distribution capacity equipment 104, the first target is unmanned. The aircraft 103 can end the execution of the delivery business and return to the drone hangar (the hangar where the drone is stored), and then only the ground delivery capacity equipment 104 performs the delivery business. In another embodiment, after the first target UAV 103 delivers the delivery items to the ground distribution capacity equipment 104, it still flies according to the flight path, so that the ground distribution capacity equipment 104 follows the first target UAV 103 drive to complete the delivery business. In this way, the flexibility of the drone to perform the delivery business is improved, and the efficiency of the drone to perform the delivery business is improved.

As shown in FIG. 2 , the system 10 may also include ground aids 105 . Wherein, the ground auxiliary facility 105 can communicate with the drone service management module 101 through a public network, and communicate with the first target drone 103 through a private network, so that the first target drone 103 can communicate with the drone Information is forwarded between the man-machine service management modules 101 . Wherein, the ground auxiliary facility 105 may be a drone hangar, a drone take-off platform, a drone landing platform, a facility of a drone food pickup business that communicates with the drone, and the like. The public network can include Bluetooth, serial port, Wireless Fidelity (WiFi for short), USB, Ethernet (2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, etc.) communication networks, etc. The private network can include software radio, point-to-point communication networks and many more.

As shown in FIG. 2 , the first target drone 103 usually communicates with the drone service management module 101 through a public network interface using a public network. Since the ground assistance facility 105 can often access the public network with low latency and high bandwidth, the ground assistance facility 105 communicates with the UAV service management module 101 through the public network, and the first target UAV 103 communicates with the UAV service management module 101 through the proprietary interface. Communicate with the ground aids 105 using a proprietary network.

In the present disclosure, the first target UAV 103 in the UAV service management system 10 can communicate with the UAV service management module 101 directly, or can communicate with the UAV service management module 101 via the ground auxiliary facilities 105 .

Specifically, the ground assistance facility 105 receives the current flight information sent by the first target drone 103 , and sends the current flight information to the drone service management module 101 . And, the ground assistance facility 105 receives the instruction for executing the first service and the flight path of the first target UAV 103 sent by the UAV service management module 101, and sends the instruction for executing the first service and the first target UAV The flight path of 103 is sent to the first target drone 103 . In this way, information is forwarded between the first target UAV 103 and the UAV service management module 101 through the ground auxiliary facility 105 . The flexibility and reliability of the communication between the UAV and the UAV business management module are improved.

Generally, the longer the communication link, the greater the probability of transmission data loss. Therefore, in the present disclosure, the first target UAV 103 may preferably communicate directly with the UAV service management module 101 . However, when the communication between the first target UAV 103 and the UAV business management module 101 is abnormal, the ground assistance facility 105 can be used to forward information between the first target UAV 103 and the UAV business management module 101 .

For example, the first target drone 103 detects the communication quality between the first target drone 103 and the drone service management module 101; in response to the communication quality being lower than the predetermined threshold, the first target drone 103 passes the special A network establishes a communication connection with the ground auxiliary facility 105; the ground auxiliary facility 105 establishes a communication connection 101 with the UAV service management module through the public network. After that, the information is forwarded between the first target UAV 103 and the UAV service management module 101 through the ground assistance facility 105 .

In addition, the first target UAV 103 also has the function of detecting environmental information. For example, in the power maintenance service, the first target UAV can detect the location of the power failure. In the forest fire prevention service, the first target UAV The ignition point can be detected and so on.

When the first target drone 103 detects the environmental information, the ground assistance facility 105 may also receive the environmental information detected by the first target drone 103, and send the environmental information to the drone service management module 101, so that the The drone business management module 101 outputs environmental information to the user of the drone operator, so that the user can know the environmental information.

In addition, the ground auxiliary facility 105 can also provide an interface for other unmanned vehicle systems to perform charging services, or cooperate with the public security system to provide a service of monitoring the surrounding environment, or cooperate with a mobile communication system to provide better communication system services ,and many more.

Considering that the UAV business management system is a complex application with high reliability requirements, sometimes it is necessary to simulate the process of UAV executing business to test the efficiency of UAV executing business. Therefore, as shown in Figure 2 As shown, the drone business management system 10 may further include a simulation module 106 for responding to a simulation request for the first business, where the simulation request includes the number W1 of the first target drones and the number W1 of the first target drone required to perform the first business The respective flight paths of a target UAV, and according to the respective flight paths of the W1 first target UAV, the dynamic process of the W1 first target UAV performing the first business is simulated.

Since the efficiency of executing the service is related to the number of the first target UAVs executing the service and the planned flight path, the service simulation request includes the number W1 of the first target UAVs 103 executing the first service and the number of the first target UAVs 103 executing the first service. The flight path of a target UAV 103 . After receiving the simulation request for the first service, the simulation module 106 simulates the dynamic process of the W1 first target UAV 103 executing the first service according to the respective flight paths of the W1 first target UAV 103 . In this way, the dynamic process of the first target drone performing the first service can be simulated, and the efficiency of the first target drone performing the first service can be detected.

Under normal circumstances, the number of drones actually owned by drone operators is limited. However, some services require a large number of drones to perform collaboratively. , the simulation module 106 can be used to simulate the flight of the larger number of UAVs. Therefore, in an embodiment, the number of the simulated first target UAVs is greater than the number of UAVs actually owned by the UAV operator. total.
