With the progress of science and technology, unmanned aerial vehicles are widely applied to various fields, such as disaster detection, low-altitude reconnaissance, atmospheric research, communication relay, disaster area search and rescue, scientific research and the like. At present, rotor unmanned aerial vehicle is used in many fields because it has the characteristics that the motion characteristic is comparatively nimble, but it also has not enoughly in aspects such as speed, voyage. Compared with the prior art, the fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle has the advantages of long range, long dead time, high speed, heavy load and the like, and is more suitable for tasks with long continuous working time and high requirement on airborne equipment. Meanwhile, the task execution capacity of the single unmanned aerial vehicle is limited, the fault tolerance rate of task execution can be improved by formation flight, the task completion effect is improved, and the reasonable formation even can reduce the task cost. For the path planning of the unmanned aerial vehicle, a lot of researchers carry out a lot of research, and a lot of mature algorithms are also provided. A number of intelligent algorithms such as a-search algorithm, Genetic Algorithm (GA), particle swarm algorithm (PSO), etc. However, since most of these studies are based on the assumption that the unmanned aerial vehicle is a gyroplane, the limitation on the kinematics and initial state of the unmanned aerial vehicle is small, and thus the obtained path is difficult to meet the motion requirement of the fixed-wing aircraft, and the path needs to be further smoothed, which reduces the practicability of the path.
At present, many intelligent planning algorithms need to be combined with Voronoi diagrams, dubins curves, PH curves and other relevant theories, the theories limit a planning space in a two-dimensional space, although the theories can also be applied to a three-dimensional space through proper modification, the efficiency of the algorithms can be obviously reduced due to the increase of the calculated amount caused by the increase of the complexity, and therefore the algorithms lose the original advantages. Meanwhile, many path planning methods do not consider the handling measures of dynamic obstacles, which is disadvantageous for the flight of multiple drones. Therefore, the prior art regarding the formation trajectory planning of fixed-wing drones has a problem of poor adaptability.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the present application is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, there is provided a method for planning formation flight paths of fixed-wing drones based on artificial potential fields, comprising the following steps:
and 102, establishing a kinematics model of the single unmanned aerial vehicle according to the kinematics characteristics of the fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle.
The kinematics model comprises a relation between a pose under an unmanned aerial vehicle inertial system and a speed under a carrier system and a relation between the speed and an acceleration under the unmanned aerial vehicle carrier system; the relationship between the speed and the acceleration under the unmanned aerial vehicle carrier system comprises a speed change trend matrix; the inertia system is a coordinate system which is static relative to the ground; the vehicle is a stationary coordinate system relative to the drone.
Specifically, the inertial system is a stationary coordinate system relative to the ground, denoted as Sf(ofxfyfzf):ofAny point on the ground, ofxfIn any direction of the horizontal plane, ofxfyfIs a horizontal plane ofzfThe coordinate system conforms to the right-hand rule for the vertical ground to point to the sky. The inertial system is used in the present invention to represent the orientation of the drone. The research of the invention is positioned at the planning level of the flight path, so that the geometric orientation state matrix P of the unmanned aerial vehicle in the inertial system is defined as follows:
P=[x y z θ ψ]T (1)
as shown in equation 1 and fig. 2, where x, y, and z are coordinate positions of the drone in the inertial system. Theta, psi is attitude information of the drone in the inertial system. Theta is a pitch angle (-phi/2 is not less than theta and not more than phi/2), psi is a yaw angle (azimuth angle) (-phi is not less than phi), and the rolling angle of the carrier does not need to be defined because the invention operates on a planning level and does not relate to specific details in the motion process of the carrier.
The vehicle is a stationary coordinate system relative to the UAV, and the vehicle is denoted as Sv(ovxvyvzv):ovFor a certain position on the drone at a certain moment, ovxvDirection to the nose of the unmanned aerial vehicle and the direction of flight thereofSame, ovyvPerpendicular to the plane of symmetry of the unmanned aerial vehicle, pointing to the right side of the unmanned aerial vehicle, ovzvPerpendicular ovxvyvThe plane points to the upper side of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and the coordinate system accords with the right-hand rule. The vehicle is used to describe the guiding signal and speed information received by the unmanned aerial vehicle. The motion state of the drone in the vehicle system is described as follows:
[vl vθ vψ al aθ aψ]T (2)
as shown in FIG. 3, wherein vl,vθ,vψRespectively defines the linear velocity, the pitch angle velocity and the yaw angle velocity of the carrier, al,aθ,aψLinear acceleration, pitch angle acceleration and yaw angle acceleration of the vehicle are respectively defined.
The following assumptions are made about the kinematics of a single drone vehicle:
(1) the linear acceleration of the drone is constant, i.e. alIs a constant.
(2) The angular velocity of unmanned aerial vehicle when turning is invariable. I.e. the vehicle can be turned with a constant turning radius immediately when it is desired to turn.
(3) Various speeds of the unmanned aerial vehicle have upper limits, and the linear speed has lower limits
Figure BDA0003455636330000081
And the lower limit is greater than 0, i.e. the drone cannot hover in place.
Let now the velocity matrix and acceleration matrix be as follows:
Figure BDA0003455636330000082
the velocity and acceleration relationships are obtained according to the above assumptions as follows:
Figure BDA0003455636330000083
Figure BDA0003455636330000084
where V (t) is a speed matrix of the vehicle at time t, V (t ') is a speed matrix of the vehicle at time t ', Δ t is a propulsion step length(s) of time, and t ' + Δ t; is a velocity trend matrix. f is a speed variation trend matrix of the vehicle, and the values thereof will be described in the next summary. From this, the relationship between the position and attitude of the drone and the speed can be obtained as follows:
Figure BDA0003455636330000091
and 104, setting a global attraction signal according to a preset target point, setting a local repulsion signal according to a preset obstacle, and determining a total guide signal received by the unmanned aerial vehicle under the vehicle system according to the global attraction signal and the local repulsion signal.
The local repulsion signal is the repulsion signal that the unmanned aerial vehicle received when being located within the effect radius of preset barrier.
In particular, the unmanned aerial vehicle researched by the invention is a fixed-wing vehicle and has more limitation on motion characteristics, so that the potential field function in the artificial potential field theory is replaced by a guide signal in the unmanned aerial vehicle, so that the unmanned aerial vehicle can fly according to the motion characteristics of the unmanned aerial vehicle. Wherein the target point can send the attraction signal to unmanned aerial vehicle carrier, attracts its flight towards the target point, and the barrier can send the repulsion signal to unmanned aerial vehicle carrier, drives it and keeps away from the barrier.
In the invention, the action range of the target point on the unmanned aerial vehicle is global, namely the target point can act on the unmanned aerial vehicle carrier in the whole planning process. For the obstacle, the unmanned aerial vehicle adopts an aggressive strategy, namely, the obstacle avoidance cannot be carried out in advance, and an avoidance measure is only adopted at the minimum safe distance, which is called as the acting radius R of the obstacle to the unmanned aerial vehicle (the distance of the unmanned aerial vehicle for implementing the obstacle avoidance action on the obstacle). R needs to be calculated and determined according to a certain rule. In the present invention, a single obstacle is set as oneRadius R0The vehicle cannot enter the sphere, otherwise the vehicle is considered to collide with the obstacle.
And step 106, determining a single-machine path planning algorithm of the single fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle under the conditions of the known target and the obstacle according to the kinematic model of the single unmanned aerial vehicle, the preset target point and the total guide signal received by the single unmanned aerial vehicle under the preset obstacle.
And step 108, acquiring formation information of the fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle, and determining a carrier-type wing aircraft target point of a wing aircraft at a captain aircraft according to formation parameters in the formation information and current position and attitude information of the captain aircraft.
In the course planning according to the invention, the formation is arranged to consist of a longplane and several bureaucratic planes, the role of the longplane in the formation being that the lead formation flies towards the target area, so that the target point of the longplane is fixed. The ideal position of a wing plane in a formation becomes the target point of the wing plane, which changes with the change of the azimuth state of the long plane. Therefore, the target point of a certain bureaucratic plane needs to be determined by the preset formation parameters and the current position and posture of the longplane.
As shown in fig. 4, taking the figure "people" formation as an example, in fig. 4, the coordinate system of the solid black line is an inertial system, the unmanned vehicle represented by the solid gray line is a grand plane, and the ideal positions of the remaining wing planes, i.e., the target point of the wing plane at this time, are the grand plane at a certain point of the inertial system. The gray dashed coordinates are the carrier system of the long machine. The target point of the francis plane is determined before the planning starts, and the target point of the francis plane needs to be calculated by the formation parameter set before the planning and the vehicle system of the francis plane, so that the number of the francis plane is 0, and the target point of the francis plane at a certain time has the following formula:

And step 110, acquiring external obstacle information, setting internal obstacle information for internal obstacles by wing plane team members, and enabling the captain to fly to a formation target area through single-machine path planning and integrating each wing plane to the captain through single-machine path planning according to the external obstacle information, the internal obstacle information and wing plane target points to realize formation integrated track planning of fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle formation.
Because the assembly of the formation and the maintenance of the formation run through the whole process of a planning algorithm, when the assembly of each unmanned aerial vehicle individual takes a long plane as the center and the formation carries out complex motion in the formation maintenance stage, the unmanned aerial vehicles may have a risk of collision, and therefore obstacle avoidance rules need to be formulated for each unmanned aerial vehicle.
The strategy adopted by the invention is to assign each unmanned aerial vehicle with the attributes of one obstacle, including position and size. And when each unmanned aerial vehicle flies towards the respective target point, the friend aircraft is regarded as a moving obstacle, and the friend aircraft is avoided according to a single-aircraft path planning algorithm.
According to the fixed wing unmanned aerial vehicle formation track planning method based on the artificial potential field, a kinematics model of a single fixed wing unmanned aerial vehicle is established according to the motion characteristics of a fixed wing aircraft, then based on the artificial potential field method, a potential field function is changed into an attraction signal from a target and a repulsion signal from an obstacle, and a single-machine path planning algorithm of the single unmanned aerial vehicle under the conditions of the known target and the obstacle is provided. On the basis of the structure of "captain-captain", firstly, the captain target points are set according to the formation requirements and captain positions, and each unmanned aerial vehicle is assigned with the attribute of the obstacle, so that the formation integrated track planning is realized. On the basis of realizing the path planning of the single unmanned aerial vehicle, the invention considers the treatment measures of dynamic barriers, sets the cooperative rules among the members of the formation, and finally realizes the formation aggregation of the fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles.
In one embodiment, the method further comprises the following steps: setting a global attraction signal according to a preset target point, setting a local repulsion signal according to a preset barrier, and determining a total guide signal received by the unmanned aerial vehicle under the carrier system according to the global attraction signal and the local repulsion signal; wherein, when the unmanned aerial vehicle is located within the action radius of the preset obstacle, the local repulsion signal is ∞.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, the most typical obstacle distribution scenario is considered, that is, when the obstacle is right in front of the drone, the calculation formula of the acting radius of the obstacle is:
Figure BDA0003455636330000111
wherein R is the acting radius of the obstacle, Ro is the maximum radius of the obstacle, and RvTurning radius for unmanned aerial vehicle carrier, Rv=vl/ω+rvOmega is the maximum angular velocity that the unmanned aerial vehicle can achieve, vlLinear velocity of the unmanned aerial vehicle carrier, rvIs the collision radius of the unmanned aerial vehicle carrier itself. Under the inertial system, the drone is subjected to an attraction signal from the target point and a repulsion signal from the obstacle as follows:

wherein i is the obstacle number (i ═ 1,2 …), SgIs an attraction signal of a target point, is pointed to the target point by the unmanned aerial vehicle carrier, and has a size of 1, SiThe rejection signal for the unmanned vehicle for the ith obstacle is directed by the obstacle to the unmanned vehicle, whose magnitude is determined by equation 9. Wherein d isiDistance of unmanned plane from ith obstacle, RiThe radius of action of the ith obstacle. Formula 9 shows that the unmanned aerial vehicle carrier will carry out the action of keeping away the barrier with full force and no longer receive the attraction signal influence of target point after entering in barrier effect radius. Then the total pilot signal that unmanned aerial vehicle receives is:
Figure BDA0003455636330000123
formula 10 obtains a guidance signal S received by the unmanned aerial vehicle in the inertial system, and then S needs to be converted into a guidance signal in the unmanned aerial vehicle carrier system for regulating and controlling the motion state of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and the calculation formula is as follows:

wherein SvFor guiding the unmanned aerial vehicle under the vehicle system, AfvAnd BfvRespectively coordinate transformation matrix from inertial system to carrier systemAnd theta and psi are the pitch angle and yaw angle of the unmanned aerial vehicle under the inertial system respectively. From this, it can be determined that the aforementioned speed trend values are as follows:

In one embodiment, the method further comprises the following steps: when a connecting line of the preset target point and the preset barrier is collinear with the linear velocity of the unmanned aerial vehicle carrier and the barrier is located between the unmanned aerial vehicle and the target point, an additional guide signal perpendicular to the linear velocity of the unmanned aerial vehicle carrier is set, so that the unmanned aerial vehicle is separated from a local minimum value point.
The unmanned aerial vehicle carrier can receive the influence of various obstacles in the process of flying to the target point. Meanwhile, the unmanned aerial vehicle is limited by actual conditions, and cannot find a state which can just reach a target point, so that the requirement on the accuracy of the judgment on whether the unmanned aerial vehicle completes the flight path planning cannot be very accurate, a precision range must be set, and the completion of the flight path planning can be judged as long as the unmanned aerial vehicle enters a certain range taking the target point as the center, which is called as an effective range of the target point.
In a scene of obstacle distribution, a connecting line of a target point and an obstacle and the linear velocity of the unmanned aerial vehicle carrier are collinear, which is an extreme case. Unmanned aerial vehicle only can receive the guide signal opposite with speed direction under this kind of circumstances, and unmanned aerial vehicle can not take effectual obstacle avoidance action this moment, need set up a judgement rule, and when this kind of circumstances appeared in unmanned aerial vehicle, the guide signal of a perpendicular to linear velocity was applyed manually, makes unmanned aerial vehicle break away from such scene.
As shown in fig. 6, under the carrier system, with ovxvzvThe plane is taken as an example, at this time, the linear velocity direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle points to the target point, and the obstacle appears between the target point and the vehicle and is collinear with the velocity. After the unmanned aerial vehicle enters the acting radius of the obstacle, the unmanned aerial vehicle will receive a guide signal S as shown in figure 6vAt the moment, the carrier only decelerates continuously but does not turn, so that the carrier cannot avoid obstacles, and when the situation is detected, an additional signal such as S can be applied to the unmanned aerial vehiclevy', the additional signal edge ovzvAxis positive direction, unmanned aerial vehicle carrier can be pulled up in order to avoid the barrier when slowing down this moment. In actual operation, the direction of the additional signal is determined according to the maximum turning capability of the drone at the moment.
In one embodiment, the method further comprises the following steps: and numbering the captain plane and the bureaucratic plane team members, and setting the priority of the unmanned aerial vehicle for avoiding obstacles according to the number.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 7, the solid gray line indicates the position where the persistent plane is located at a certain moment, the dashed gray line indicates the target point corresponding to each bureaucratic plane, it can be seen that the target point of a partial bureaucratic plane coincides with an obstacle, and the partial bureaucratic plane located at the position of the black solid line can obviously not fly to the ideal position (target point). At this moment, according to the stand-alone path planning algorithm, the unmanned aerial vehicle can solve the problem by the strategy of avoiding the obstacle with full force when entering the acting radius of the obstacle. At this time, some bureaucratic planes give up forming a formation to preferentially avoid the obstacle, and fly to the ideal position (target point) after the target point leaves the action range of the obstacle.
As shown in fig. 8, in a certain situation the target point of the left wing-1 is located to the right, while the target point of the right wing-2 is opposite. And two wing planes will all fly on the same plane. In this case, the bureaucratic plane number 1 needs to lead to ovyvPositive direction of axisThe movement is to approach the target point, while the opposite is true for the 2 wing plane. In the process of movement, the distance between two wing machines can be continuously reduced, and when the two machines mutually enter the action range of each other at a certain moment, obstacle avoidance operation can be adopted. Because of the particularity of this scene, the kinematic characteristics of the two wing machines are geometrically symmetrical, and they will repeatedly avoid each other, as shown by the black dashed trajectory in fig. 8, and eventually it is difficult to reach the target point.
In order to avoid the situation, the solution provided by the invention sets the priority for avoiding the obstacles among the members in the formation, namely, in the thought before the planning starts, the members in the formation are numbered, and the obstacle avoiding rules of the unmanned aerial vehicles are regulated according to the principle that the larger the number is, the lower the priority is. According to the rule, the long plane does not need to consider the obstacle avoidance of the wing plane in the flying process, and only needs to consider the influence of obstacles except members of the formation. In the situation shown in fig. 8, a wing plane 1 only needs to pay attention to avoiding a long plane, while a wing plane 2 only needs to avoid a long plane and a wing plane 1. By applying this rule, the movement trajectory of two bureaucratic planes at the stage of entering into obstacle avoidance from each other can be obtained as shown by the grey dashed line in fig. 8.
In one embodiment, the method further comprises the following steps: determining the time required by the wing plane to decelerate to the speed of the wing plane according to the difference between the linear speeds of the wing plane and the long plane and the acceleration value of the wing plane deceleration; the distance required by the wing plane to decelerate to the speed of the farm machine is determined according to the time required by the wing plane to decelerate to the speed of the farm machine; and when the distance between the current position of the wing plane and the target point of the wing plane is not more than the distance required by the deceleration of the wing plane to the speed of the long plane, the wing plane is decelerated.
In the course of the flight of a long plane towards the target point, a wing plane experiences two phases: a formation aggregation stage and a formation holding stage. In the staging phase of the formation, the wing aircraft needs to avoid obstacles and fly towards a target point that varies constantly with the movements of the farm aircraft. In the path planning of a single drone, if the drone reaches the target point, the path planning ends. In a multi-plane formation, however, even if a wing plane arrives at the target point at that time, the track planning continues until a long plane arrives at the target point. Thus, any wing plane arrives at the target point and enters the formation-keeping phase, which needs to maintain as much as possible the same movement as the long plane in order to maintain the current formation.
In the formation staging phase, in order to increase the speed of the formation staging, the wing plane needs to fly at the fastest speed towards the target point, while the farm plane needs to wait at the slowest speed while it has not yet all reached the ideal position in the formation. When all the wing aircraft in the formation enter the formation keeping stage, the long aircraft needs to take the formation to accelerate to fly to the target point, and in the process, the formation may encounter obstacles again, so that the formation of the formation is broken, and the formation gathering and formation keeping processes are repeated. When a wing plane is in place, the line speed difference between the main plane and the wing plane can cause the instability of the formation, and a strategy needs to be arranged to avoid the situation.
As shown in fig. 9, at a certain moment, a bureaucratic machine indicated by a solid black line has reached the target point at that moment along a dashed black line (indicated by a dashed gray line). At this point, however, the farm plane (grey solid line) is waiting at a slow speed, so that the speed of the wing plane is greater than that of the farm plane, resulting in the wing plane flying again outside the effective range of the current target point. Due to the characteristics of the artificial potential field law and the characteristics of the fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle model, bureaucratic opportunities take a turn around measure to return to the target point (shown by the gray dashed line locus on the way). This results in instability of the formation, since the wing machines may be in the process of formation marshalling for a long time, while the leader machines are also difficult to judge whether the wing machines marshalling is finished. One idea for solving this problem is to let the wing plane decelerate in advance, just as the long plane can keep the same speed when it reaches the effective range of the target point. This is similar to the "relay" problem.
However, the existence of obstacles and the like make it difficult for the wing plane to accurately predict the flight trajectory and the speed variation law of the long plane, so that the wing plane has difficulty in accurately controlling the speed thereof so as to exactly match the motion state when reaching the target point with the long plane. The solution proposed by the present invention is therefore to let the wing plane estimate the distance from the target point and roughly determine the timing at which the advance deceleration is required, so that as far as possible the state of motion of the wing plane when it reaches the ideal position matches the state of motion of the long plane. The calculation formula of the method is as follows:
Δt=(vl-v0l)/al (18)
fl=-1,d≤vΔt-aΔt2/2 (19)
wherein v islAnd v0lLinear velocity of wing-like and long planes at a certain moment, alIs the acceleration. The time Δ t required by the bureaucratic plane to decelerate to the speed of the longeron at that moment can be derived from the equation 18. When d is the distance between the wing plane and the target point, the formula 19 shows that the wing plane must be decelerated when the distance between the wing plane and the target point is not greater than the distance required by the wing plane to decelerate to the linear velocity of the wing plane. The change in the linear speed of the fixed wing is not considered in the process of the reduction of the wing, since the fixed wing waits at the lowest linear speed before all the fixed wings reach the target point.
The estimation rule that the state of the wing plane is adjusted according to the distance between the wing plane and the leader and the linear velocity difference between the wing plane and the leader is set, so that formation aggregation and formation maintenance of the fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle can be realized.
