Description

AGV navigation positioning system and method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of navigation positioning, in particular to an AGV navigation positioning system and an AGV navigation positioning method.
Background
In the automatic operation of an AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle), the positioning module plays a very important role. AGVs can be operated not only indoors but also outdoors, for example, for inter-plant transport and transport of open-air warehouses to indoor production lines.
When the AGV runs indoors, the AGV is positioned by using methods such as two-dimensional code navigation, magnetic stripe navigation, or laser SLAM (synchronized positioning And map building). When two-dimensional code navigation and magnetic stripe navigation are adopted, the two-dimensional code and the magnetic stripe are easy to be polluted or damaged, so that inaccurate positioning is caused; when the laser SLAM is used for positioning, the method can perform positioning only by extracting the characteristic information, and because the environment in a factory building is complex and changeable and the characteristic information is changed, the positioning is easily lost in changeable areas, and the robustness is poor.
When the AGV runs outdoors, the AGV is positioned by using a laser SLAM, a visual SLAM, or a GPS (Global positioning system) method. Due to the fact that outdoor environment is complex and more information is collected, the method can cause inaccurate positioning and poor robustness.
In conclusion, when the AGV runs indoors or outdoors, the positioning method adopted leads to inaccurate positioning and poor robustness. In addition, when the AGV runs from indoor to outdoor or from outdoor to indoor, switching between the indoor positioning method and the outdoor positioning method cannot be realized, thereby affecting the AGV operation.

All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
For the understanding of the present embodiment, the following detailed description will be given of the embodiment of the present invention.
The first embodiment is as follows:
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an AGV navigation positioning system according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1, the system includes: a laser radar 1, a CPU (Central processing Unit) 2, a GPS3, a wheel speed sensor 4, and an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) 5;
the laser radar 1 and the GPS3 are both arranged at the top of the AGV, and the laser radar 1, the GPS3, the wheel speed sensor 4 and the inertial measurement unit 5 are respectively connected with the CPU 2; the CPU2 and the inertia measurement unit 5 are provided in the AGV, and the wheel speed sensor 4 is provided on the wheel of the AGV.
The laser radar 1 is used for emitting a single laser beam to reflective columns arranged on the periphery of an indoor wall surface and acquiring data information of the reflective columns;
the GPS3 is used for collecting the pose of the AGV under the geocentric coordinate system when the AGV is outdoors;
the wheel speed sensor 4 is used for acquiring the wheel speed of the AGV;
the inertia measurement unit 5 is used for acquiring inertia data of the AGV;
the CPU2 is used for obtaining the indoor position of the AGV according to the data information of the reflective column and the position of the prestored reflective column relative to the navigation coordinate system; according to the indoor position and pose of the AGV, converting the position and pose of the AGV under the geocentric coordinate system into the position and pose of the AGV in the navigation coordinate system; and obtaining the outdoor position of the AGV by the aid of the position of the AGV in the navigation coordinate system, the wheel speed of the AGV and the inertia data of the AGV through an extended Kalman filtering algorithm.
In the embodiment, the position and posture of the AGV in the room are determined by adopting a method of combining the laser radar 1 and the reflective columns indoors. A plurality of reflecting columns are arranged on the periphery of the indoor wall surface, and the positions of the reflecting columns relative to the navigation coordinate system are stored in a map file in advance. The top of AGV is provided with laser radar 1, and laser radar 1 transmission single laser beam carries out 360 degrees scannings, when scanning reflection of light post, gathers reflection of light post's data message to send the data message of reflection of light post for CPU 2. In general, the laser radar 1 collects data information of at least three reflective columns, so that the accuracy of the data can be ensured. And the CPU2 obtains the indoor position of the AGV according to the data information of the reflective column and the pre-stored position of the reflective column relative to the navigation coordinate system. By the method of combining the laser radar 1 and the reflecting column, quick positioning can be realized, and robustness is improved. Wherein the navigation coordinate system is a coordinate system predefined on the map.
And determining the outdoor pose of the AGV by adopting a method of combining a GPS3, a wheel speed sensor 4 and an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)5 outdoors. The positions (latitude, longtude, heading, latitude, longitude, second heading angle) of the AGV in the geocentric coordinate system are collected by the GPS 3. Because the navigation coordinate system is adopted indoors, in order to ensure the smooth operation of the AGV, the pose of the AGV under the geocentric coordinate system needs to be converted into the pose of the AGV under the navigation coordinate system; the GPS3 is arranged at the top of the AGV, the number of the GPS3 is at least two, when the number of the GPS3 is two, the two GPS3 are oppositely arranged, and therefore the pose of the AGV under the geocentric coordinate system can be acquired through an antenna on the GPS 3; secondly, the wheel speed of the AGV is acquired through a wheel speed sensor 4, and inertia data of the AGV are acquired through an inertia measurement unit 5; and finally, obtaining the outdoor position of the AGV by the position of the AGV in the navigation coordinate system, the wheel speed of the AGV and the inertia data of the AGV through an extended Kalman filtering algorithm. By the method, the AGV can be accurately positioned indoors or outdoors, positioning switching of the AGV from the indoor to the outdoor or from the outdoor to the indoor is realized, and the operation efficiency and robustness of the AGV are improved.
Further, the data information of the reflective column comprises the distance of the reflective column relative to the laser radar, the angle of the reflective column relative to the laser radar and the reflective rate;
the CPU2 is used for obtaining the position of the reflective column relative to the AGV body through the reflective column extraction algorithm according to the data information of the reflective column; obtaining the indoor pose of the AGV according to the position of the light reflecting column relative to the AGV body and the pre-stored position of the light reflecting column relative to the navigation coordinate system;
the indoor pose of the AGV comprises an abscissa, an ordinate and a first course angle of the AGV in the room.
In particular, the light reflectivity is used to characterize the light reflection intensity of the light reflection column, thereby distinguishing the light reflection column from the wall body.
When the laser radar 1 collects data information of the reflective column in the 360-degree scanning process, the data information of the reflective column is sent to the CPU2, and the CPU2 inputs the data information of the reflective column into a reflective column extraction algorithm to obtain the position of the reflective column relative to the AGV body; at the moment, the sequence number of the corresponding reflection column in the map is found according to the position of the reflection column relative to the navigation coordinate system prestored in the map file. And obtaining the indoor pose of the AGV according to the position of the light reflecting column relative to the AGV body and the pre-stored position of the light reflecting column relative to the navigation coordinate system.
Further, the CPU2 is configured to obtain an origin of coordinates according to the indoor position and the geocentric coordinate system of the AGV; obtaining the pose of the AGV in the navigation coordinate system according to the origin of coordinates of the position of the AGV in the geocentric coordinate system;
the position and posture of the AGV in the navigation coordinate system comprise an abscissa, an ordinate and a third course angle of the AGV in the navigation coordinate system.
Referring to fig. 2, when the indoor positioning and the outdoor positioning are switched, coordinates need to be unified, and at this time, coordinate conversion needs to be performed on positioning data collected by the GPS3, that is, the position posture of the AGV in the geocentric coordinate system is converted into the position posture of the AGV in the navigation coordinate system. The geocentric coordinate system includes the WGS84 coordinate system.
In the indoor, the coordinate origin of navigation coordinate system is (0, 0, 0), also sets up the coordinate origin through the positioning data that gathers GPS3, can accomplish the coordinate and unify to the coordinate for the coordinate origin is transformed to the positioning data that gathers GPS 3. Besides the plurality of light reflecting columns arranged on the indoor wall surface, the plurality of light reflecting columns are arranged in the indoor transition area through the outdoor wall surface, so that the position and posture of the AGV in the indoor wall surface can be ensured in the transition area, and positioning data collected by the GPS3 can also be obtained. By utilizing the transition area, the unification of the coordinate system is realized, and the switching between indoor and outdoor coordinates is completed.
In the transition region, the position and attitude of AGV in the room is (P)x,PyTheta), the pose of the AGV in the geocentric coordinate system is (latitude, longtude, heading), and the origin of coordinates is obtained according to the formula (1):
Figure BDA0002640435900000091
wherein home is the origin of coordinates, PxFor the transverse coordinate, P, of the AGV in the roomyThe longitude of the AGV is the longitudinal coordinate of the room, theta is the first heading angle, EARTH is the radius of the EARTH, latitude is the latitude of the AGV in the geocentric coordinate system, latitude is the longitude of the AGV in the geocentric coordinate system, and heading is the second heading angle.
By collecting multiple origin of coordinates in the transition region, the problem of inaccuracy of the origin of coordinates due to positioning fluctuations is avoided. For example, 10 coordinate origins are acquired, and the error is eliminated by averaging, according to equation (2):
home={home1+home2+...+home10}/10
wherein, home is the origin of coordinates, home1Is a coordinate origin 1, home2Is a coordinate origin of 2, home10Is the origin of coordinates 10.
Further, referring to fig. 3, the inertial measurement unit 5 includes an accelerometer 51 and a gyroscope 52;
and an accelerometer 51 for acquiring acceleration of the AGV.
And a gyroscope 52 for acquiring the angular velocity of the AGV.
Further, the CPU2 is configured to obtain the outdoor position of the AGV through an extended kalman filter algorithm based on the position of the AGV in the navigation coordinate system, the wheel speed of the AGV, the acceleration of the AGV, and the angular velocity of the AGV;
and the outdoor pose of the AGV comprises an abscissa, an ordinate and a fourth course angle of the AGV outdoors.
In particular, Kalman Filtering (KF) is a highly efficient recursive filter (autoregressive filter) that is capable of estimating the state of a dynamic system from a series of measurements that do not completely contain noise. The Kalman filtering comprises three parts: the first part is state estimation; the second part is state observation; the third part is to correct the estimated state by the observed state.
The Kalman Filtering (KF) is suitable for a linear system, and based on the KF, an EKF (Extended Kalman Filter) algorithm, an Unscented Kalman filtering (Unscented Kalman Filter) algorithm and the like appear, and the core of the EKF algorithm is to linearize a nonlinear system and then perform Kalman Filtering (KF) processing.
Whether the inertial data collected by the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)5 is updated is judged, and the judgment is made by the acceleration and angular velocity collected in unit time. For example, at 10ms acceleration and angular velocity are acquired, whereas at 20ms no acceleration and angular velocity are acquired, proving that the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)5 is not updated.
In the process of correcting the inertial data, the state quantity estimated by the EKF algorithm is [ px, py, pz, vx, vy, vz, q0, q1, q2, q3, acc _ bias and gyro _ bias ], and the correction quantity of the state is obtained through the calculation of a filter equation through the estimated quantity and the observed quantity error. Among these, relevant to the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)5 are inertial data, including acceleration and angular velocity. After the acceleration (acc _ bias) and the angular velocity (gyro _ bias) are corrected, the estimated quantity can estimate the state more accurately in the next period.
