With the mature development of the logistics industry market in China and the continuous innovation of the Internet of things and the sensor technology, the application of the logistics unmanned aerial vehicle is supported by a certain technology, and the application of the unmanned aerial vehicle (vehicle) to improve the distribution efficiency becomes an industry consensus. In the existing unmanned aerial vehicle distribution stage, a plurality of problems in the aspects of technology, cost, safety and the like still exist, but in China or abroad, the unmanned aerial vehicle has started to exert force on the track in recent years, and a new distribution mode mainly based on the unmanned aerial vehicle gradually enters the visual field of people.
The pilotless plane is an unmanned plane for short, is a manned plane operated by a radio remote control device and a self-contained program control device, is provided with corresponding systems such as avionics, sensors, communication, flight control and the like, and has the functions of autonomous flight and independent completion of a certain task. With the development of technology, it is not a contention fact that drones have become intelligent robots that can fly. The field of unmanned aerial vehicles is in a brisk development stage. Around unmanned aerial vehicles, various technical innovations emerge endlessly, and with the comprehensive opening of the low-altitude field in China, the high-tech achievements of unmanned aerial vehicles once sealed in the military field are now revealing mysterious veil, entering the civil fields and showing huge potential. At present, express logistics enterprises start unmanned aerial vehicle express research and development and carry out unmanned aerial vehicle express tests. However, because the unmanned aerial vehicle has the limitation of load and flying distance, the unmanned aerial vehicle can only deliver goods with specific specifications to customers within a certain range, and therefore the use of the pure unmanned aerial vehicle for delivery still has great limitation.
Urban public transport is an important infrastructure closely related to the productive life of the people. The urban public transport is preferentially developed, a public transport system which is adaptive to the urban scale, population and economic development is built, the total number of vehicles in the urban central area is reduced, the urban public transport system is an important measure for improving the urban transport resource utilization efficiency and relieving traffic congestion, and the urban public transport system is a pragmatic measure for improving the urban air quality and accelerating the construction of an environment-friendly society. The public transport construction promotes the fusion development of new technologies such as internet, big data and artificial intelligence and urban public transport, promotes the concept of 'service as trip', promotes the system construction such as intelligent operation supervision of urban public transport, intelligent enterprise scheduling, trip information service and big data decision support, provides urban public transport real-time trip information service for passengers, improves the real-time forecast rate of the incoming information of urban public transport vehicles, and improves the non-cash payment rate.

The unmanned aerial vehicle cannot bear heavier objects, has limited cruising ability and cannot work for a long time; urban public transport needs to accurately follow a specified route, and the related range is limited, so that the information of nearby ground conditions is difficult to acquire quickly. If the unmanned aerial vehicle is combined with urban public transport, the integration development of a new technology and the public transport is embodied, the advantage complementation is formed, the defects between the unmanned aerial vehicle and the public transport are probably made up, but the current cooperative distribution technology of the unmanned aerial vehicle and the public transport is not applied.
Due to remote positions, order dispersion, difficult distribution and sudden accidents of the urban end logistics, logistics order distribution is basically completed manually, distribution efficiency is low, and distribution cost is high. In the prior art, goods are sent from a warehousing station to a distribution station, and a distributor arrives one by one according to addresses, or a buyer arrives at a distribution point to pick up the goods. In addition, due to ground traffic jam and high distribution demand, the logistics distribution time is long at present, the distribution cost is high, the logistics distribution is influenced by the geographical environment, the district of an individual region does not support delivery service, and buyers need to pick up the goods from the distribution station, so that the user experience and consumption will are reduced, and huge consumption potential cannot be released. Along with the development of unmanned aerial vehicle technique, the mode of vehicle and unmanned aerial vehicle collaborative distribution receives extensive concern, and a plurality of commodity circulation enterprises have accomplished with scientific and technological company and have utilized unmanned aerial vehicle to carry out the preliminary experiment of terminal delivery.

(2) The existing distribution method has low distribution efficiency, high distribution cost and low user experience. The method for self-picking, appointing delivery time and setting community self-picking cabinet in the community convenience store solves the problems of cargo safety and service quality to a certain extent, but only meets the requirements of a consumer end, and increases the distribution cost for a supply end.
(3) The acquisition cost and the operating cost of the existing unmanned aerial vehicle are high, and the manufacturing industry chain is not perfect for the moment and the cost can not be reduced through systematic production.
(4) The prior art does not have a method or a system for cooperatively distributing unmanned aerial vehicles and public transport at present.

In combination with the technical solutions and the technical problems to be solved, please analyze the advantages and positive effects of the technical solutions to be protected in the present invention from the following aspects:
first, aiming at the technical problems existing in the prior art and the difficulty in solving the problems, the technical problems to be solved by the technical scheme of the present invention are closely combined with results, data and the like in the research and development process, and some creative technical effects are brought after the problems are solved. The specific description is as follows:
the bus and unmanned aerial vehicle coordinated distribution mode realized by the invention not only solves the problems of low cargo vehicle distribution efficiency and insufficient transportation capacity in the same city distribution, but also solves the problems of short endurance and limited flight distance of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The goods storage cabinets arranged at the bus station and the bus station of the target customer district are the best choices obtained by carrying out preference analysis by means of big data and reasonably screening, so that the construction cost is reduced, and meanwhile, better planning arrangement is provided for the navigation path of the unmanned aerial vehicle.
The bus and unmanned aerial vehicle cooperative distribution system provided by the invention can complete long-distance routes in distribution without flying from a distribution center to a customer door, and only needs to complete the distribution part of the last kilometer, so that the unmanned aerial vehicle driven by the battery can save electric quantity, improve endurance and reduce noise. For the bus, the invention can improve the utilization rate of the bus, increase the income of the bus and the like.
Secondly, considering the technical scheme as a whole or from the perspective of products, the technical effect and advantages of the technical scheme to be protected by the invention are specifically described as follows:
the invention provides a method for realizing urban logistics distribution by combining buses and unmanned planes, which can well solve the problems of endurance and load of the unmanned planes in the prior art, and on the other hand, the low-carbon and environment-friendly concept of public transportation is more and more accepted by the public, so that the development prospect is wide.
The invention provides safe professional distribution service for local consumers, and provides diversified services such as buying, delivering, taking, handling and the like; the system creates four products of brand, timeliness, economy and customization for all merchants, and aims to solve the distribution problem for various merchants in a one-stop way by using high-quality, high-efficiency and full-scene services.
Third, as an inventive supplementary proof of the claims of the present invention, there are also presented several important aspects:
(1) The expected income and commercial value after the technical scheme of the invention is converted are as follows:
the product is formulated to cooperate with a merchant with goods distribution demand at the initial stage, and meanwhile, the product is sent by receiving the APP which is independently downloaded by a personal consumer to the same area of small articles, and the optimization service of the consumer is performed. Meanwhile, the existing social platform is reasonably utilized to promote and recruit products, and the online sale and the promotion are synchronously carried out, so that the multi-channel sale is realized. After the product is further mature, the product cooperates with more small-sized enterprises and individual household and business companies, and the profit mode can be continued.
The invention creates a rapid, efficient and green distribution mode of the unmanned aerial vehicle and the bus, and has high commercial value. The unmanned aerial vehicle delivery number is called as 'air express delivery', which takes technical change and innovation service as the core, does not depend on ground traffic and the inherent advantages of terrain and topography, creates high-quality delivery service for users of high-value-added commodities, and enables the users to feel the leap of logistics service capability. Unmanned aerial vehicle has expanded the availability factor in space (from the plane to the solid), does not have the traffic congestion risk, therefore no aircraft will promote delivery efficiency by a wide margin. In the last three years, the cost of unmanned distribution of the whole vehicle is gradually reduced to be within 10 ten thousand yuan from 20 ten thousand yuan to 50 ten thousand yuan, and unmanned distribution of the race tracks is the first to come out. Carry on the bus and can accomplish long distance road in the distribution, need not to fly to client's door from the distribution center, only need accomplish the distribution part of "last kilometer", therefore can save the electric quantity, promote continuation of the journey, noise reduction by battery drive's unmanned aerial vehicle. For the bus, the product can improve the utilization rate of the bus, increase the income of the bus and the like.
(2) The technical scheme of the invention fills the technical blank in the industry at home and abroad:
at present, no unmanned aerial vehicle and bus distribution technology exists at home and abroad, and the technology provided by the invention fills the technical blank in the field at first. The application of unmanned aerial vehicles (vehicles) to improve distribution efficiency is a common consensus in the industry. At present, express logistics enterprises all start unmanned aerial vehicle express development and carry out unmanned aerial vehicle express test. However, the unmanned aerial vehicle has the limitation of load and flying distance, and can only deliver goods with specific specifications to customers within a certain range, so that the use of pure unmanned aerial vehicle for delivery is still limited. The problem of endurance and load of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be well solved by combining the bus and the unmanned aerial vehicle to realize urban logistics distribution, and on the other hand, the low-carbon environment-friendly concept of public transportation is more and more accepted by the public, so that the development prospect is wide. Unmanned aerial vehicle and bus are in coordination with the delivery both can solve the problem of unmanned aerial vehicle continuation of the journey and load, can realize green delivery again, is a big innovative achievement in the commodity circulation field.
(3) The technical scheme of the invention solves the technical problem that people are eager to solve but can not succeed all the time:
end delivery problems: in the face of multiple pressures that the end distribution demand is increased day by day, distribution pain points continuously exist and labor population is reduced continuously, a plurality of solutions are provided for the market, such as co-distribution, self-lifting cabinets, self-lifting convenience stores and the like, and the problems are relieved to a certain extent. However, the problem of logistics distribution of the last kilometer cannot be completely solved by only depending on manual distribution. The unmanned aerial vehicle is incorporated into a logistics distribution system at the tail end of a city, and the distribution problem of the last kilometer can be greatly solved. In certain environments and conditions, efficient delivery can only be achieved with drone traffic, which is not otherwise available. For example, when people or life bodies are trapped in a certain high-rise building or a certain place of a mountain, a lake and a sea and urgently need life and rescue goods and materials, the unmanned aerial vehicle can realize extremely efficient and accurate delivery. Compare in general air transportation and navigation transport mode, the unmanned aerial vehicle transportation has advantages such as with low costs, the dispatch is nimble to can fill current air traffic capacity blank. Meanwhile, the restriction of human factors such as pilots and aircrafts is reduced in capacity scheduling. In addition, in some remote mountain areas and river sea dangerous areas, land transportation and water transportation are extremely inconvenient, and the unmanned aerial vehicle is suitable for transportation.
The cost problem is as follows: the cost of the logistics industry is always high, and compared with air transportation, the technical scheme greatly reduces the logistics labor cost. In the long term, the purchase cost of the unmanned aerial vehicle is lower than the labor cost; unmanned aerial vehicle can improve long distance logistics distribution efficiency in the same region, reduces logistics distribution time, alleviates trade company's delivery burden.
