Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention 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 invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
The vehicle and multi-unmanned aerial vehicle collaborative path planning method provided by the invention can be applied to the application environment shown in fig. 2, the vehicle carries the unmanned aerial vehicle to drive along the known ground road from the base station, and the taking-off and landing environment can be provided for the unmanned aerial vehicle at the nodes of the road network. After taking off, the unmanned aerial vehicle autonomously goes to a target area to execute a covering task, and the flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle is not restrained by a road network any more. The unmanned aerial vehicle drives to the edge of the target area from the flying point, and carries out coverage scanning on the unmanned aerial vehicle along the sampling path, and the vehicle can wait in situ during the period, and can also continue to drive along the road, and fly off or take back other unmanned aerial vehicles in due time. And the unmanned aerial vehicle is converged with the vehicle to charge or replace the battery after finishing the coverage scanning task. And circulating the steps until all the target areas are completely covered, and returning the vehicle to the starting point by carrying all the unmanned aerial vehicles.
In the collaborative path planning of the vehicle and multiple drones, in order to better solve the problem, the following assumptions can be made:
1. the time for the vehicle and the unmanned aerial vehicle to return to the base station after completing all the area coverage tasks is the total time for minimizing the area coverage;
2. the starting point and the end point of the planned path of the vehicle must be base stations;
3. the out-degree and in-degree of the vehicle planned path at each point are consistent;
4. ensuring that each target area is covered by one drone only once;
5. the path of the vehicle carrying the unmanned aerial vehicle to run is included in the vehicle planning path;
6. ensuring that the unmanned aerial vehicle has at most one path between any two road nodes;
7. the unmanned aerial vehicle has at most one path between any two road nodes;
8. ensuring the consistency of the out-degree and the in-degree of the unmanned aerial vehicle;
9. the electric quantity consumed by the unmanned aerial vehicle for executing the coverage reconnaissance task each time can not exceed the upper limit;
10. the time when the vehicle leaves the base station is 0;
11. the time when the vehicle arrives at the next node is not earlier than the time when the previous node leaves plus the time of the shortest path between the two nodes;
12. the moment when the vehicle leaves the node is not earlier than the moment when the vehicle arrives at the node, nor earlier than the moment when the unmanned aerial vehicle lands at the node;
13. the unmanned aerial vehicle can be launched only after the vehicle stops at the node;
14. the unmanned aerial vehicle can land after finishing the regional coverage task.
Based on the assumptions, the mixed integer programming model can be established to carry out concrete solution.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, a flow chart for planning a collaborative path of a vehicle and multiple drones includes the following steps:
step 1, obtaining a target area set, and determining a coverage path of the unmanned aerial vehicle according to the relative position of a sub-target area in the target area set.
It should be noted that the sub-target area refers to an area where coverage sampling is performed by the drone. Particularly, when the unmanned aerial vehicle carries out regional coverage reconnaissance mission, the area position of waiting to sample is big more dispersed and distributed far away, surpasss unmanned aerial vehicle flight range relatively easily. The method comprises the steps of combining a target area set constructed by an area to be sampled with a real road network, constructing unmanned aerial vehicle coverage sampling based on real roads and supported by ground vehicles, and realizing efficient reconnaissance of the target area.
Step 2, determining the real road node closest to the sub-target area as the mapping point of the sub-target area; generating a vehicle moving path according to each mapping point; performing initial planning on the vehicle moving path to obtain an initial vehicle path; and eliminating the crossed path of the initial vehicle path to obtain the vehicle path.
It is worth explaining that, the vehicle runs to a certain road node along the road, and the working state of the unmanned aerial vehicle after taking off from the vehicle is divided into three stages: 1) travel to the target area edge; 2) executing the covering task along the established path; 3) leave the target area and return to the vehicle. Since only the energy consumption of stage 2 belongs to the effective working energy consumption, in order to improve the working efficiency of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the energy consumption of the unmanned aerial vehicle in the advancing process in stages 1 and 3 should be reduced. Therefore, the real road node closest to the sub-target area is determined as the mapping point of the sub-target area, so that the flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be shortened, and the energy consumption is reduced; the mapping point of the vehicle driving to the sub-target area is regarded as accessing the target area, so that the Problem of the vehicle path is converted into a typical TSP (tracking Salesman Problem) Problem, and a heuristic algorithm can be effectively used for solving the Problem.
Step 3, an unmanned aerial vehicle airway set is constructed according to the road nodes in the vehicle path and the unmanned aerial vehicle coverage path; respectively constructing alternative flying starting points and alternative landing points for each sub unmanned aerial vehicle route in the unmanned aerial vehicle route set based on the vehicle route and the unmanned aerial vehicle route set; according to selection indexes in an iterative relaxation algorithm, respectively performing iterative optimization on the alternative flying points and the landing flying point set to obtain new flying points and new landing points of the sub unmanned aerial vehicle airway; and updating the new flying point and the new landing point in the vehicle path to obtain the collaborative optimal planning path of the vehicle and the multiple unmanned aerial vehicles.
It is worth explaining that each target area is completed by one unmanned aerial vehicle at a time, all sampling points and landing points in the flying points, the covering paths form a sub-unmanned aerial vehicle route, all routes form an unmanned aerial vehicle route set, and the flying points, the sampling points and the landing points form a sub-unmanned aerial vehicle route set by using gamma U And (4) showing. Through the steps, the paths of the vehicle and the unmanned aerial vehicle are preliminarily determined, the scheme at the moment belongs to a feasible solution, but only one unmanned aerial vehicle is released each time, the vehicle and other unmanned aerial vehicles wait in situ, and obviously, the cooperativity between the vehicle and the unmanned aerial vehicle is not utilized, so that the iterative relaxation algorithm is adopted to carry out iterative optimization on the paths of the vehicle and the unmanned aerial vehicle.
According to the vehicle and multi-unmanned aerial vehicle collaborative path planning method, device, terminal and medium, considering that the target area is possibly far away from the passable road, the road network node closest to the area to be searched is taken as the mapping point, an unmanned aerial vehicle route based on the positions of take-off points and landing points of a real road network is designed, the take-off points and the landing points are flexibly selected, and the reconnaissance time is saved; and then, carrying out iterative optimization on the unmanned aerial vehicle route set and the vehicle planning path through an iterative relaxation algorithm, and generating a satisfactory reconnaissance path planning scheme in a short time to complete the path planning of the cooperation of the vehicle and the multiple unmanned aerial vehicles.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, determining the coverage path of the drone according to the relative positions of the sub-target areas in the target area set for the drone coverage path constraint map includes:
planning an unmanned aerial vehicle coverage path according to the number and the positions of the aerial sampling points of the unmanned aerial vehicle in the sub-target area, wherein connecting lines of the sampling points form the unmanned aerial vehicle coverage path; constructing a plurality of unmanned aerial vehicle coverage paths according to different coverage modes, and selecting an optimal coverage mode and an optimal coverage path; the sampling point is the central point in unmanned aerial vehicle sampling area, and the sampling area is the unmanned aerial vehicle single sampling subaerial projection region.
Specifically, the projection area of the single sampling on the ground is rectangular, and all the sampling projection areas can completely cover the target area when the coverage task is finished. Meanwhile, in order to ensure the accuracy of later image splicing or 3D modeling, a certain overlap should exist between adjacent sampling areas. As shown, L x Representing the transverse extent, ov, of the sampling region perpendicular to the direction of flight of the drone x Representing the amount of lateral overlap between adjacent sampling regions; similarly, L y And ov y Respectively, the longitudinal width and longitudinal overlap of the sampling region in the direction of flight.
In one embodiment, the overlay mode includes: a spiral overlay mode and a reciprocating overlay mode; the coverage path includes a spiral coverage path and a reciprocating coverage path.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 4, it is an exemplary diagram of a spiral coverage path based on a landing point; the unmanned aerial vehicle selects the top point of the area to be searched, which is closest to the flying point, as a reference point, two covering paths are respectively constructed by taking the reference point to two adjacent points as references, the optimal covering path which enables the unmanned aerial vehicle to have a smaller corner is selected as the area to be searched, and the area to be searched is covered inwards circle by circle along the edge of the area to be searched.
FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of a reciprocating overlay path based on landing points; and constructing different reciprocating covering paths by taking the longest edge of the area to be searched as a reference edge and respectively taking two vertexes of the reference edge as reference points, and selecting the shortest covering path from the constructed reciprocating covering paths as the optimal covering path of the area to be searched.
In one embodiment, determining the real road node closest to the sub-target area as the mapping point of the sub-target area includes:
and calculating a centroid coordinate of the sub-target area, and determining the real road node closest to the centroid coordinate as a mapping point of the sub-target area.
In particular, for any region δ to be searched t Calculating the coordinate of the centroid as c t The road node closest to the centroid is

This point is marked as an arbitrary region δ to be searched t Is mapped to a point v LR =v i* Where N represents the number of road nodes, c t Representing the area δ to be searched t Centroid coordinates of v i Coordinates representing road node i, d (c) t ,v i ) Denotes c t And v i The euclidean distance between them.
In one embodiment, a vehicle moving path is initially planned to obtain an initial vehicle path; performing cross path elimination on the initial vehicle path to obtain a vehicle path, comprising:
performing initial planning on the vehicle moving path by adopting a greedy algorithm to obtain an initial vehicle path;
and detecting and eliminating the crossed path of the initial vehicle path by using a resolution crossing method to obtain the vehicle path.
Specifically, the mapping point of the vehicle driving to the area to be searched is regarded as accessing the searched area, so that the generation Problem of the vehicle route planning is converted into a typical TSP Problem (tracking Salesman publishing). As an NP-complete problem, it is not practical to use exact algorithms in cases where there are a large number of areas to be searched, whereas simple heuristic algorithms such as greedy algorithms usually yield unsatisfactory solutions. Particularly, when intersection exists in the solved path, the quality of path planning can be rapidly improved through a heuristic method for eliminating the intersection. Therefore, when the access sequence is generated, a feasible initial vehicle path is constructed by a greedy algorithm, and then a digestion intersection method is adopted to detect and eliminate the intersection path in the initial vehicle path to obtain a vehicle planning path. The planned path of the vehicle only records road nodes related to takeoff points and landing points of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and the nodes run along the shortest path.
In one embodiment, based on a vehicle path and an unmanned aerial vehicle route set, respectively constructing alternative departure points and alternative landing points for each sub-unmanned aerial vehicle route in the unmanned aerial vehicle route set; according to the selection index in the iterative relaxation algorithm, respectively carrying out iterative optimization on the alternative flying point and landing flying point set to obtain a new flying point and a new landing point of the sub-unmanned aerial vehicle airway, and the method comprises the following steps:
initializing an unmanned aerial vehicle route set, and restraining the same take-off point and landing point in the routes of the sub-unmanned aerial vehicles;
arranging all unmanned aerial vehicles in the unmanned aerial vehicle route set from large to small according to the residual energy, selecting a sub unmanned aerial vehicle route, and constructing alternative flying starting points and landing flying starting points of the sub unmanned aerial vehicle route;
selecting one alternative point from the alternative flying starting points as a preset flying starting point, gradually relaxing the distance upper line of the preset flying starting point, calculating according to a selection index in an iterative relaxation algorithm, selecting the preset flying starting point meeting the conditions as a new flying starting point, and replacing the original flying starting point;
selecting one alternative point from the alternative falling points as a preset falling point, gradually relaxing the distance upper line of the preset falling point, calculating according to a selection index in an iterative relaxation algorithm, selecting the preset falling point meeting the conditions as a new falling point, and replacing the original falling point;
and updating the vehicle path according to the new flying start point and the new landing point to obtain the collaborative optimal planning path of the vehicle and the multiple unmanned aerial vehicles.
Specifically, in the initial stage, the takeoff point and the landing point of each route are constrained to be the same, that is, the distance epsilon between the takeoff point and the landing point of the unmanned aerial vehicle route is 0. And gradually relaxing the distance constraint in the subsequent iteration process, and guiding the unmanned aerial vehicle route and the vehicle path to carry out iterative optimization.

And before or after the unmanned aerial vehicle takes off the unmanned aerial vehicle, the increment of the path length of the vehicle is smaller, and the takeoff point of the unmanned aerial vehicle and the planned path of the vehicle are updated.
And updating the landing points in the same manner to finally obtain the collaborative optimal planning path of the vehicle and the multiple unmanned aerial vehicles.

In one embodiment, in order to verify the effectiveness of the vehicle and multi-unmanned aerial vehicle collaborative path planning method provided by the invention, as shown in fig. 6, a road network and a scene of an area to be searched are set for verification, and the verification is carried out at 60km 2 Randomly generating 16 target areas in the test area, wherein the area of each target area is 0.30-0.60 km 2 And the shape of the convex polygon is random. The 3 drones complete the coverage tasks for all areas with the support of one truck. The vehicles need to travel along the road network, with each intersection as a road node. The grey square represents the base station position, and the vehicle and the unmanned aerial vehicle start from the base station and return to the base station together with the vehicle after completing all covering tasks.
As shown in fig. 7, for the path planning of the vehicle and the unmanned aerial vehicle before iterative optimization in the scene of fig. 6, the total task time is 2.973h according to the initial path planning scheme constructed according to the mapping points of the target area to be searched.
Solving is carried out by applying the iterative relaxation algorithm, as shown in fig. 8, the paths of the vehicle and the unmanned aerial vehicle after iterative optimization in the scene of fig. 6 are planned, and the unmanned aerial vehicle selects an optimal coverage mode and an optimal coverage path for a single area to be searched; the vehicle path connects all target areas in series along the road network, and the condition of path intersection does not exist; under the restriction of the number of unmanned aerial vehicles, the vehicle path is cooperatively matched with the unmanned aerial vehicle path, the total time for completing the multi-region coverage reconnaissance task is 1.593h, and the arithmetic operation time is 15.903 s. It can be known that the proposed iterative relaxation optimization mechanism improves the path planning effect by 46.4%.
Because unmanned aerial vehicle airspeed is higher than the vehicle, consequently improve the energy utilization of unmanned aerial vehicle air route and help promoting task completion efficiency. As shown in fig. 9, after iterative optimization, the energy utilization rate of most unmanned aerial vehicle routes is improved, and is increased by 110.41% at most. Fig. 10 shows the time that the drone and the vehicle are waiting on each other, with the time that the vehicle waits for the drone being noted as positive. And respectively calculating the total time of the vehicle waiting for the unmanned aerial vehicle to be 1.862h and 0.893h before and after the iterative optimization. It follows that the task completion time period can be significantly shortened by reducing the waiting time of the vehicle. In conclusion, the mode that the vehicle supports multiple unmanned aerial vehicles can efficiently complete the area coverage task in a large range, and the heuristic algorithm of iterative relaxation can effectively solve the problem of vehicle-machine collaborative path planning.
