Description

Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of surveying and mapping technology and surveying and mapping equipment, in particular to a measuring prism based on an inertial navigation system and having pose autonomous reckoning capability.
Background
The total station is a surveying instrument integrating horizontal angle, vertical angle and distance measurement functions, and usually needs a prism to perform point location measurement. Traditional total powerstation does not possess the function of the automatic prism of alighting, needs the manual prism of alighting to measure when using, and is consuming time hard and can not carry out dynamic tracking to the prism. In order to overcome the above defects, many measuring instrument manufacturers represented by Leica Geosystems add functions of prism automatic tracking and collimation on the basis of the traditional total station, thereby realizing automatic measurement of the total station.
The existing mainstream automatic tracking type total station mainly realizes dynamic tracking and collimation on the prism in an image identification mode, and the prism does not have position calculation capability. This approach has the following drawbacks: 1) Good continuous viewing conditions need to be kept between the prism and the total station, and once a shelter exists, the automatic tracking of the total station to the prism is easily interrupted. 2) The movement speed of the prism relative to the total station cannot be too fast, otherwise tracking failure of the total station is easily caused. 3) The distance between the prism and the total station is limited, and the prism is difficult to track when being too far away or too close. 4) The requirement on the observation environment is high, and effective continuous tracking and collimation can be carried out under the condition of sufficient light.
The publication "CN110220512A" patent name "dynamic positioning system of total station combined inertial measurement unit" installs prism and inertial measurement unit on carrier, and uses the combination of total station and inertial measurement unit to perform dynamic positioning. However, this patent only uses a prism as a cooperative target of the total station for measuring the position coordinates of the carrier. Therefore, the prism in the scheme does not have the position calculation capability, and the tracking and sighting capability of the total station to the prism cannot be improved, and the method is essentially different from the method.
Aiming at the existing problems, a prism tracking scheme capable of overcoming the limitations in the aspects of observation environment, shielding, distance between a prism and a total station, relative movement speed and the like is urgently needed. Therefore, the invention provides a novel prism system and a novel prism method based on an inertial navigation technology, the prism has the autonomous calculation capability of position, speed and posture, and the technical problem of dynamic tracking and collimation of the prism of the existing automatic tracking type total station can be effectively solved.

In the embodiment, the communication module 2 realizes wireless communication and data transmission between the optical prism and the total station 5 through WiFi.
Referring to fig. 2 and 3, the specific operation mode of the prism tracking method implemented by the measuring prism according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the following specific steps:
1) The prism is fixed on the measuring rod, the total station 5 is erected and aimed at the prism to measure the three-dimensional position coordinates of the prism in real time. Then data acquisition is carried out, and a data processing unit is started.
After the arrangement is completed, the position, the speed and the posture of the autonomous positioning and posture determining module at the optical prism are initialized. In specific implementation, the position coordinates of the prism can be obtained by measuring through a total station so as to realize the initialization of the position. There are a number of methods for velocity initialization, including, but not limited to, letting the prism stand still, setting the initial velocity of the prism to 0; alternatively, the speed or the like is calculated using the difference between the prism positions at two times.

3) A coarse heading angle is set. The rod tip touches the ground and the measuring rod is shaken. And performing inertial navigation calculation on the obtained IMU data to obtain one trajectory line, and measuring the prism by using the total station 5 to obtain the other trajectory line. And the included angle between the two sections of track lines is the course angle error. And subtracting the course angle error on the basis of the rough course angle, so that the error can be corrected, and a more accurate course angle can be obtained.
4) When the tip touches the ground and there is no relative sliding, the tip speed can be considered zero, i.e. the tip speed is zero

6) When the total station 5 is in a communication with the prism, the total station 5 tracks and aims at the prism, measures the position coordinate of the prism in real time, sends the position coordinate to a data processing unit of the prism through a communication module, and performs data fusion with a prism positioning and attitude determination result obtained by inertial navigation resolving in a Kalman filtering manner to obtain a combined positioning and attitude determination result of the prism.
In the specific implementation, the kalman filtering method may refer to the prior art, and the present invention is not repeated. And the total station observation value and the inertial navigation resolving result are fused in an implementation mode, including but not limited to Kalman filtering, graph optimization and the like.
7) When the total station 5 is in perspective with the prism, the current position and speed of the prism of the total station predicts the position of the prism at the next moment, and the total station is assisted to adjust the angle in advance (see step 9), so that the total station can track the collimation prism more stably.
The prediction method provided by the invention is that the current time (t) position of the prism is set as r n (t) velocity v n (t), with a time interval Δ t, it is predictableThe position of the prism at the next time (t + Deltat) is
r n (t+Δt)=r n (t)+v n (t)Δt (4)
8) When the total station tracking prism is interrupted, the prism travels to a position which is in communication with the total station and stops, zero-speed correction is carried out, namely, the zero-speed is used as an observation value to carry out Kalman filtering measurement updating, and error divergence of inertial navigation is slowed down. In particular, the position of the prism may be adjusted by a user carrying the measuring stick.
9) And the data processing unit calculates the rotation angle of the total station according to the orientation of the total station and the position of the prism at the current moment.
Setting the coordinates of the center position of the prism as (E, N, U) and the azimuth angle of the total station as alpha H The height angle is alpha v Then horizontal angle Δ α of rotation required for the total station H And an altitude angle delta alpha V Is composed of
Figure BDA0003918377360000051
Wherein, E, N, U respectively mean east, north, height, are used for describing the position of prism under the coordinate system with total powerstation as the origin of coordinates.
10 According to the result obtained in the step 9), after the total station rotates to a specified angle, setting a total station searching range 7 according to the position uncertainty of the prism, and searching the prism by the total station within the specified range.
Let the slant distance between the prism and the total station be d s Error in prism horizontal direction position predicted by Kalman filtering is sigma H Error in vertical position is σ V Then the search range of the prism in the horizontal direction is
