In addition, the technical features involved in the embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
The current existing graph-based control technology generally has the following problems: the point-to-point aircraft graph transmission generally adopts an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technology, carries out resource scheduling according to a certain frame structure, generally adopts a full scheduling mode, reduces the complexity of Frequency selective scheduling, meets the requirement of high-definition image transmission on large data volume, and has relatively high power consumption; in order to increase the remote control distance, point-to-point aircraft mapping generally adopts a mode of increasing the transmitting power and increasing the transmitting antenna, but the power consumption is correspondingly increased; in order to meet the requirement of miniaturization, the circuit board is correspondingly reduced, so that insufficient heat dissipation can be caused, and some types of aircraft even cancel a heat dissipation fan based on the effect of the fan in the flight of the aircraft, so that higher requirements are provided for heat dissipation of devices, and particularly in the ground takeoff stage, the risk of breakdown caused by overhigh temperature is easily caused when the heat dissipation is insufficient.
For the above problems, the existing remote low-power-consumption graph transmission technology is mainly improved from the following three directions, and accordingly, certain new problems exist:
1. for a hardware circuit, only 1 path of transmitting path is selected to realize low power consumption, specifically, a high-Power Amplifier (PA) is used, and an antenna selection function is adopted. For this direction, the problems that the type selection difficulty of a high-power amplifier is high, the integration level of the high-power amplifier is relatively low, the quiescent current is relatively high, and the processing requirement on the antenna selection algorithm in the image transmission performance is high exist.
2. In the power control processing of software, a simple and extensive way is to adopt sectional control (such as a 2-section mode) to realize low power consumption, adopt 14dBm power emission at a short distance and adopt maximum power allowed by regulations, such as 23dBm, at a long distance. For the direction, the problem that the control mode is extensive and single and cannot achieve a good low-power consumption effect exists; and if the control mode is further improved to a complex and fine mode, specifically, an open-loop power control or closed-loop power control mode is adopted, the most appropriate transmitting power can be calculated in real time, however, the action of the method is mainly embodied in a long-distance scene, and the action of the method is not great in a short-distance scene due to the existence of static current of a device.
3. The heat dissipation structure is designed to achieve low power consumption, for example, the heat dissipation area of the circuit board is increased, and the heat dissipation fan is increased. For this direction, there is a problem that the volume of the aircraft is increased accordingly, limiting the miniaturization of the design.
In order to solve the above problem, an embodiment of the present invention provides a remote low-power-consumption image transmission control scheme, which achieves low-power-consumption and remote image transmission in a flight process of an aircraft through dynamic adjustment of a frame structure, a transmission bandwidth, a channel, and a transmission power, and does not need to add a heat dissipation structure, which is beneficial to miniaturization design of the aircraft/aircraft, and fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of one application environment of the image transmission control method provided in the embodiment of the present invention, where the application environment includes: the remote control system comprises an aircraft 10 and a remote controller 20, wherein the aircraft 10 is in communication connection with the remote controller 20, and the aircraft 10 can execute a map transmission control method provided by an embodiment of the invention. The communication link may be established via a wired or wireless connection, for example, via a wireless communication module, to enable image transmission of the remote control 20 with the aircraft 10.
The aircraft 10 may be any type of flying apparatus, and may include a fuselage, arms, power plants, a pan/tilt head, flight control systems, and cameras, etc., such as an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), unmanned ship, or other mobile device, etc. The following description of the invention uses a drone as an example of an aircraft. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that other types of aircraft may be used without limitation. Wherein, this unmanned aerial vehicle can be various types of unmanned aerial vehicle, for example, unmanned aerial vehicle can be miniature unmanned aerial vehicle. In certain embodiments, the drone may be a rotary wing vehicle (rotorcraft), for example, a multi-rotor vehicle propelled through the air by a plurality of propulsion devices, embodiments of the invention are not so limited, and the drone may be other types of drones or mobile devices, such as fixed wing drones, unmanned airships, umbrella wing drones, flapping wing drones, and the like. In some embodiments, the aircraft 10 may rotate about one or more axes of rotation. For example, the above-described rotation axes may include a roll axis, a translation axis, and a pitch axis.
The remote control 20 may be any suitable remote control device or remote control terminal. The remote controller 20 is a remote control unit on a receiving ground (ship) surface or an aerial platform, and sends a control instruction to a flight control system, namely a flight control system, so as to control the aircraft 10. The remote controller 20 is used for relaying data, information or instructions. For example, after the remote controller 20 receives data or information transmitted by the aircraft 10 (e.g., image information captured by a camera), the data or information may be transmitted to a display device, so as to display flight information of the aircraft 10 on the display device, and render or display the image information captured by the aircraft 10.
Specifically, the embodiments of the present invention will be further explained below with reference to the drawings.
Example one
An embodiment of the present invention provides a map transmission control method, which is applied to an aircraft, where the aircraft may be the aircraft 10 described in the above application scenario, please refer to fig. 2, which shows a flow of the map transmission control method provided in the embodiment of the present invention, where the method includes, but is not limited to, the following steps:
step S10: setting a frame structure and a transmission bandwidth of image data according to the current channel quality;
the applicant discovers through power consumption analysis that the power consumption of the transmission channel TX is a main power consumption ratio, and the power consumption of the radio frequency front end transmission channel TX is about 90%, so that low power consumption can be realized by adjusting the duty ratio of the uplink subframe UL in the data link layer, and a better balance between the transmission rate and the power consumption can be realized by matching with the selection of the transmission bandwidth, wherein the duty ratio of the uplink subframe of the frame structure is inversely related to the transmission bandwidth. Specifically, please refer to fig. 3, which shows a sub-flow of step S10 in the graph transmission control method shown in fig. 2, wherein the setting of the frame structure and the transmission bandwidth of the image data according to the current channel quality at least includes the following steps:
step S11: detecting the transmission rate and/or the signal-to-noise ratio of the current channel;
step S12: setting a frame structure of image data according to the transmission rate and/or the signal-to-noise ratio of the current channel;
step S13: and setting the transmission bandwidth of the image data according to the frame structure.
In the embodiment of the present invention, preferably, the channel for transmitting the image preferably includes two channels, the two channels are respectively connected to the two antennas, an initial state is a state where neither channel is opened, and a hardware structure with dual transmission paths is adopted, so that the remote low-power image transmission can be realized, and meanwhile, more combined control methods are provided, thereby ensuring the miniaturization design of the aircraft.
Based on the above, the aircraft firstly operates in a single-antenna state after being started, and when the aircraft operates only with a single antenna, whether the index value of the transmission rate of the current channel is lower than a preset index value is judged, and if so, the duty ratio of the uplink subframe in the frame structure is reduced and/or the transmission bandwidth is increased. In other embodiments, the determination may be made according to other related detection values of the transmission rate and/or related detection values of the signal-to-noise ratio, such as a combination of traffic, error code, AGC, distance, etc., and the combination of the frame structures of the time selective scheduling may be other structures with different permutations, which will not be described in detail herein.
Specifically, please refer to fig. 4 and fig. 5 together, fig. 4 illustrates a frame example of a switchable frame structure provided by an embodiment of the present invention, where D is a Downlink subframe, which represents a Downlink subframe, that is, a data frame transmitted from the remote controller to the aircraft, and U is an Uplink subframe, which represents an Uplink subframe, that is, a data frame transmitted from the aircraft to the remote controller; n is NoTRx indicating a blank frame not carrying data, i.e., a state of not receiving and not transmitting, wherein the duty ratio of the uplink subframe of the frame structure 1 is higher than that of the uplink subframe of the frame structure 2, and the duty ratio of the uplink subframe of the frame structure 2 is higher than that of the uplink subframe of the frame structure 3; fig. 5 shows an example of a switchable operating state provided by an embodiment of the present invention.
The aircraft is in an initial state after power-on start, then the system executes step S11 to start detecting the index value of the transmission rate of the current channel, and then executes step S12 to select a state with a different frame structure or a different transmission state according to the different index values, for example, in the example shown in fig. 5:
when the index value MCS (Modulation and Coding Scheme) of the transmission rate of the current channel is higher than a first preset index value, if MCS >24, the system executes step S12, switches to state 1, adopts a frame structure 3 with the lowest uplink subframe duty ratio, and correspondingly executes step S13 to set a larger transmission bandwidth of 20MHz for transmission according to the frame structure;
after switching to the state 1, returning to execute the step S11 to continue detecting the index value of the transmission rate of the current channel, and when the index value MCS of the transmission rate of the current channel is lower than a second preset index value, if MCS is less than 23, switching to the state 2, the system executes the step S12 to switch to the state 2, adopting the frame structure 2 with a slightly higher uplink subframe duty ratio (higher than the frame structure 3, i.e. closing the subframe 3/4/8/9 of the transmission channel TX), and correspondingly executing the step S13 to set a larger transmission bandwidth of 20MHz according to the frame structure for transmission;
after switching to the state 2, returning to execute the step S11 to continue detecting the index value of the transmission rate of the current channel, and when the index value MCS of the transmission rate of the current channel is lower than a third preset index value, if MCS is less than 18, switching to the state 3, the system executes the step S12, switching to the state 3, adopting the frame structure 1 with a high uplink subframe duty ratio (higher than the frame structure 2, i.e. closing the subframe 4/9 of the transmission channel TX), and correspondingly executing the step S13 to set a smaller transmission bandwidth of 10MHz according to the frame structure for transmission; further, if the MCS is higher than the first predetermined index value again after switching to the state 2, i.e. MCS >24, the state is switched back to the state 1.
Step S20: setting a channel and transmitting power for transmitting the image according to the current transmission requirement on the image;
in the embodiment of the present invention, after setting the frame structure and the transmission bandwidth of the image, the transmission power, the channels used for transmitting the image, and the number of channels may be set according to the current transmission state, specifically, please refer to fig. 6, which shows a sub-process of step S20 in the graph transmission control method shown in fig. 2, where the setting of the channels used for transmitting the image and the transmission power according to the current transmission requirement for the image includes:
step S21: setting the transmitting power of the single antenna according to the adjusted frame structure and transmission bandwidth;
step S22: judging whether the transmitting power of the single antenna reaches the maximum transmitting power; if yes, jumping to step S23;
step S23: increasing the number of channels opened to increase the number of antennas on which the aircraft operates, and/or opening antenna channels for which the combined estimate is high.
In the embodiment of the present invention, after the frame structure and the transmission bandwidth of the image data are set according to the transmission rate and/or the signal-to-noise ratio of the current channel, a fixed transmission power is further set according to the frame structure and the transmission bandwidth of the image data, or a dynamic transmission power is set, and the value of the transmission power is detected in real time, and after the maximum transmission power is reached and the transmission power and/or the signal-to-noise ratio do not meet the requirements, the antenna with higher power is switched, or the number of the antennas is increased to meet the transmission requirements.
Specifically, under the condition of good channel conditions, that is, when the index value MCS of a higher transmission rate can be supported, part of the uplink subframes are closed to meet the requirement of the transmission rate. When the requirement for the transmission rate is not changed, the channel condition is deteriorated, and the index value MCS of the higher transmission rate cannot be supported, the uplink subframe proportion needs to be increased, so that the original transmission rate requirement is supported by the index value MCS of the lower transmission rate. For example, still taking fig. 5 as an example, in the case of state 1 and state 2, since blank frames still exist in the frame structure 2 and the frame structure 3, when the requirement for the transmission rate increases, the blank frames (subframe 3/4/8/9 in the frame structure 3, or subframe 4/9 in the frame structure 2) can be adjusted to uplink subframes, that is, the subframe duty ratio is increased, so as to support the original transmission requirement. At this time, the transmitting power adopts the highest power of the PA quiescent current to transmit data, and since the common devices can be larger than 14dBm, in order to meet the ground transmitting power required by the authentication specification of the unmanned aerial vehicle, preferably, a fixed 14dBm can be set as the transmitting power.
After the state 3 is switched, a frame structure 1 with a high uplink subframe duty ratio does not have a blank frame, a subframe of a sending channel TX only has a structure formed by an uplink subframe and a downlink subframe, the transmitting power needs to be switched to a dynamic power control mode to dynamically adjust the transmitting power according to the current transmission requirement, furthermore, after the transmitting power is detected to reach the maximum transmitting power Pmax, the state 4 is switched, and the number of antennas is increased to improve the transmission efficiency;
further, after switching to the state 3, and when the index value MCS of the transmission rate of the current channel is higher than a fourth preset index value, for example, MCS >21, and the transmission power PWR is less than or equal to 14dBm, switching back to the state 2;
further, after switching to state 4, and when the index value MCS of the transmission rate of the current channel is higher than a fourth preset index value, i.e. MCS >21, switching back to state 3.
It should be noted that, in the example shown in fig. 5, in each state, when the transmission rate of the current channel does not meet the transmission requirement, that is, the index value of the transmission rate of the current channel is lower than the preset index value, the current channel may be further switched to the antenna channel with the higher comprehensive evaluation value for transmission, where the comprehensive evaluation value is a value obtained by comprehensively evaluating the received power/signal-to-noise ratio of the two antennas.
Step S30: and packing the image data according to the frame structure and the transmission bandwidth, and sending the image data through the channel and the transmitting power.
In the embodiment of the present invention, after the data frame structure, the transmission bandwidth, the number of antenna channels and channels, and the transmission power are set in steps S10 and S20, that is, after the state is switched to the corresponding state, the image data may be packaged according to the frame structure and the transmission bandwidth, and the image data is sent through the channels and the transmission power, so as to implement image transmission.
Further, please refer to fig. 7, which illustrates another image transmission control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, before the setting the frame structure and the transmission bandwidth of the image data according to the current channel quality, the method further includes:
step S40: controlling the aircraft to be powered on and started;
step S50: switching the aircraft to an initial state and searching for a remote control signal of a remote controller;
step S60: and after searching the remote control signal, opening a default channel so that the aircraft establishes communication connection with the remote controller.
