s5, in the walking process, the whole-vehicle controller of the harvester can adjust the harvester in real time according to the working condition of the working device, the speed information can be continuously sent to the tractor through the self-organizing network device, and the tractor navigation controller and the whole-vehicle controller of the tractor can adjust the following speed according to the information so as to ensure the stability of the cooperative operation and the safe distance in the following period;
s6, the tractor is used as a grain transporting vehicle, if the grain transporting vehicle is full, another grain transporting vehicle is called to continuously carry out harvesting-grain transporting cooperative operation according to the same cooperative mode, and efficient, safe and continuous operation process is guaranteed.
