Description

Virtual-real combined simulation method, device and system for multiple unmanned aerial vehicles
Technical Field
The embodiment of the invention relates to the technical field of virtual-real simulation of computers, in particular to a virtual-real combined simulation method, device and system of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles.
Background
The unmanned aerial vehicle simulation is a loop which is necessary to pass actions such as designing an unmanned aerial vehicle, verifying a relevant algorithm of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and conceiving a combat style of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The current unmanned aerial vehicle simulation has played irreplaceable effect in fields such as unmanned aerial vehicle dynamics, unmanned aerial vehicle obstacle avoidance, unmanned aerial vehicle cluster mission planning and the like. The virtual-real combined simulation is a simulation method which is developed rapidly in recent years, and has good effects on weapon efficiency evaluation, combat equipment test, industrial production assembly and the like. The virtual-real combined simulation method combines elements in a virtual space of a computer with elements in the real world, and plays a role in cross-space resource allocation and cross-time environment calling. The virtual-real combined simulation can supplement the deficiency of real objects by elements in the virtual environment under the limited real object condition, for example, the real object unmanned aerial vehicle is combined with the virtual sensor, so that the real object unmanned aerial vehicle simulates in the virtual environment, and the same simulation effect as in the actual environment is achieved.
Simulation is a forerunner in equipment development and tactical technical training. And the unmanned aerial vehicle simulation is a powerful tool for unmanned aerial vehicle algorithm verification and tactical research. With the development of various intelligent algorithms such as genetic algorithm, simulated annealing algorithm, particle swarm algorithm, ant colony algorithm and the like, the problem related to the unmanned aerial vehicle is solved, and an improved intelligent algorithm is gradually adopted. In order to verify the effectiveness of the algorithms, a pure physical system has many limitations, and firstly, the number of the unmanned aerial vehicles is limited, and a common laboratory cannot use dozens of hundreds of unmanned aerial vehicles for algorithm verification. Second, the energy is restricted, and unmanned aerial vehicle's energy often can only support its time of staying empty for several hours, can't carry out long-time or simulation many times, need recharge and deploy the system, and the process is very loaded down with trivial details. Thirdly, as the verified algorithm often fails to succeed at one time, damage to the unmanned aerial vehicle can occur in the process, resulting in failure of subsequent verification.
At present, the feasibility of the algorithm is usually verified in a computer simulation mode, but the computer simulation is limited by an ideal environment, so that the verified algorithm cannot be directly deployed on a physical unmanned aerial vehicle, adjustment needs to be carried out according to actual test conditions, and the algorithm development period is prolonged. The virtual-real combination simulation is a simulation technology which is generated by the fact that full physical simulation is difficult to achieve, and the reliability of pure virtual simulation cannot meet the requirement, the virtual-real combination is a combination mode of finishing the virtual simulation of a system and the exchange and interconnection of actual equipment to be tested, the mode can play the characteristics of interface abstraction, functional simulation and test function iterative development of the virtual system simulation, and meanwhile, the authenticity of the actual equipment is combined, so that the test meets the requirements of comprehensiveness, high efficiency and reliability. The simulation mode combining virtuality and reality fully transfers digital resources and physical resources in the simulation system, so that the original development process such as design, modeling, simulation and verification is linearly carried out, the development process can be carried out in parallel in the simulation and verification stages, and the development efficiency is effectively improved.
The key point of constructing the virtual-real combined simulation system is to realize interconnection and intercommunication of virtual space and real space information, and on the basis, unified allocation of two space resources can be realized. But the present scheme all can't accomplish to fuse virtual unmanned aerial vehicle and unmanned aerial vehicle in kind, realizes real virtuality and reality and combines the emulation.

The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a virtual-real combined simulation method for multiple drones, including:
s101: determining the scene characteristics of the real object;
s102: building a virtual scene based on the real scene characteristics;
s103: determining the number of physical unmanned aerial vehicles and the number of virtual unmanned aerial vehicles in the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster;
s104: at least determining formation of unmanned aerial vehicle clusters in the virtual scene and flight channels of the virtual unmanned aerial vehicles and the physical unmanned aerial vehicles based on the virtual scene, the number of the physical unmanned aerial vehicles and the number of the virtual unmanned aerial vehicles;
s105: constructing a communication control system between the real unmanned aerial vehicle and the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle, wherein the communication control system is used for carrying out data interaction between the real unmanned aerial vehicle and the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle;
s106: determining state information of the physical unmanned aerial vehicle and the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle based on a communication control system;
s107: based on the communication control system, the flight of the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle and the flight of the physical unmanned aerial vehicle are respectively controlled by combining state information, formation and flight channels of all unmanned aerial vehicles.
Based on the method of the embodiment, the fusion of the physical unmanned aerial vehicle and the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle can be effectively realized, the virtual-real combined simulation of the unmanned aerial vehicle is really realized, and the method can be applied to the military field, particularly in urban combat operations, and the unmanned aerial vehicle can pass through the interior of a building by virtue of the characteristics of small size and flexibility to complete reconnaissance tasks. The method of combining virtuality and reality can simulate an actual action scene based on the cooperation of a small number of real unmanned aerial vehicles and virtual unmanned aerial vehicles, lays a foundation for actual application, and provides effective reference. Especially in practical application, unmanned aerial vehicle can carry out the reconnaissance in the building, and the inside most of building couples together each room through door, window etc.. Therefore, it is the requisite that unmanned aerial vehicle carries out the reconnaissance mission to pass through door and window smoothly, but door and window has the shape characteristics that the space is narrow, if fail to carry out unmanned aerial vehicle's flight training in advance, the processing of flight data leads to reconnaissance mission failure very easily, especially when there are many unmanned aerial vehicles to carry out the reconnaissance mission, often need pass through door and window through the formation smoothly, so train unmanned aerial vehicle based on the method in this embodiment in advance, utilize virtual reality to combine the method simulation actual action scene can effectively assist going on smoothly of actual reconnaissance action.
Furthermore, when the virtual scene is built based on the real object scene, the condition that the boundary of the virtual scene obeys the real object scene is met. The layout of the virtual scene and the physical scene may be determined by combining the content of the simulation service, for example, the physical entity synchronizes the motion of the virtual entity in the virtual space, and when verifying the performance in the physical scene, the physical scene needs to be consistent with the virtual scene, including the size and the position of the terrain and the obstacle. In this embodiment, the virtual scene may provide a corresponding perception capability, such as a collision perception capability, in addition to the environment simulating the motion of the object. When the deviation occurs when the unmanned aerial vehicle executes the movement, or the algorithm design is wrong, so that the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle collides with the environment, the virtual scene can feed the collision information back to a control computer (described below) in real time, and meanwhile, the collision effect is rendered in the virtual scene in real time, so that the state which accords with the cognition of the user shows the collision state for the user.
Further, confirm the unmanned aerial vehicle quantity in kind and the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle quantity in the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster, include:
s108: determining the number of physical unmanned aerial vehicles in the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster;
s109: respectively constructing twin bodies corresponding to each real unmanned aerial vehicle in a virtual scene;
s110: determining the number of virtual drones and twins.
That is, the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster is formed by the cooperation of part real unmanned aerial vehicle and part virtual unmanned aerial vehicle, and wherein, virtual unmanned aerial vehicle is based on virtual scene modeling formation, and real unmanned aerial vehicle need establish twin in the virtual scene in order to realize forming a team with virtual unmanned aerial vehicle to realize synchronous with real unmanned aerial vehicle's state based on this twin. When determining the number of drone clusters, the number of virtual drones and twins is determined. Specifically, when the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle is applied, a virtual scene, a twin and simulation software can be built by using the phantom engine, and similarly, the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle can also be created by using a model in the phantom engine. And the entity in kind can use four rotor unmanned aerial vehicle, and it has small in size, long, the sensitive advantage of reaction of dead time. When a twin body is constructed, the physical unmanned aerial vehicle can be guided into the illusion engine after being modeled by using three-dimensional modeling software, and then the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle is formed.
Further, at least, formation of unmanned aerial vehicle clusters in the virtual scene and flight channels of each virtual unmanned aerial vehicle and each physical unmanned aerial vehicle are determined based on the virtual scene, the number of physical unmanned aerial vehicles and the number of virtual unmanned aerial vehicles, including:
s111: determining a target formation form and a target flight channel of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster;
s112: in a virtual scene, determining a waypoint at each moment for each real unmanned aerial vehicle and each virtual unmanned aerial vehicle respectively according to a time sequence based on the number of the real unmanned aerial vehicles, the number of the virtual unmanned aerial vehicles and a target flight channel;
s113: and determining formation and flight channels of the virtual unmanned aerial vehicles and the physical unmanned aerial vehicles based on the waypoints of the physical unmanned aerial vehicles and the virtual unmanned aerial vehicles.
For example, the drone cluster performing formation to drone cluster formation requires that a single drone fly at a relatively fixed position with other drones within the formation to form a designated formation, i.e., a target formation, in accordance with the formation coordination algorithm. The unmanned aerial vehicle formation method based on the waypoints is suitable for unmanned aerial vehicle clusters with small scales, the formation control of the unmanned aerial vehicles is realized by continuously updating the waypoints of all the unmanned aerial vehicles in the formation at the next moment through the control computer, namely the formation is determined based on the waypoints of the physical unmanned vehicles and the virtual unmanned vehicles, and meanwhile, the flight channels of all the virtual unmanned vehicles and the physical unmanned vehicles can be determined based on the waypoints at each moment. The algorithm flow for determining formation according to the waypoint at each time can be referred to fig. 2, wherein the = sign in fig. 2 represents the assignment.
Furthermore, the path tracking algorithm of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster is different from the algorithm for the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster to execute formation and formation transformation, and the unmanned aerial vehicle needs to go to a target position point under the condition of formation constraint, so that the target formation is obtained, namely a target flight path (namely a target flight channel), and the flight path can be given by the path planning algorithm according to the formation of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster and the position of the target position point. For the formation mode, a pilot-follower model can be adopted, namely the position of a pilot is given, and the position of a follower can be obtained by calculating the formation position. And the destination of the path tracking is also the destination of the pilot, and the positions of the rest unmanned aerial vehicles in the formation are calculated according to the relative position relationship in the formation.
For example, as shown in fig. 3, it shows the whole task flow and the formation switching manner of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster, and specifically includes that after receiving the instruction, the physical unmanned aerial vehicle and the two virtual unmanned aerial vehicles take off in the order of the physical unmanned aerial vehicle, the first virtual unmanned aerial vehicle, and the second virtual unmanned aerial vehicle, the hovering position of the physical unmanned aerial vehicle is (0.0, 1.5, 1.0), the hovering position of the first virtual unmanned aerial vehicle is (1.0, 5.0, 1.5), and the hovering position of the second virtual unmanned aerial vehicle is (-1.0, 5.0, 1.5). After the second virtual unmanned aerial vehicle reaches the designated position, the three unmanned aerial vehicles form a formation to fly forwards. And the instructions of formation transformation are executed after the physical unmanned aerial vehicle arrives (0.0, 1.0 and 1.0), the first virtual unmanned aerial vehicle arrives (1.0, 3.0 and 1.5) and the second virtual unmanned aerial vehicle arrives (1.0, 3.0 and 1.5). The lower ends of the door to be passed through are located at (0.5, 0.0) (-0.5, 0.0) and have a height of 1.8 m. The physical unmanned aerial vehicle firstly goes to (0.0, -1.5, 1.0), the first virtual unmanned aerial vehicle reaches a target point along the paths of (1.0, 3.0, 1.5), (0.0, -1.0, 1.5), the second virtual unmanned aerial vehicle reaches the target point along the paths of (-1.0, 3.0, 1.5), (0.0, -0.5, 1.5), and then the three unmanned aerial vehicles execute a landing instruction.
Furthermore, the most basic requirement of the virtual-real combined simulation system on performance indexes is simulation instantaneity, the instantaneity requires that the operation of the simulation system meets a certain time constraint condition, if the instantaneity of the simulation system is not guaranteed, the operation of the simulation system enters an uncertain state, the behavior of the system is uncontrollable, and the operation result of the system is unpredictable, so that the credibility of the simulation result is difficult to guarantee.
Therefore, the real-time requirements of the virtual-real combined simulation system are mainly as follows:
(1) Time t of response of simulation system to external instruction o
(2) Time t for mutual synchronization of virtual entity state and physical entity state r
The virtual-real combined simulation is a human-in-loop simulation system, and in the running process of the simulation system, a human gives external instructions to the simulation system, such as instructions for sending queue form change, task change, firepower striking and the like, and the simulation system needs to respond to the instructions in time. In response to an external command, a preset waiting time t is usually set w If t is o Exceeds the preset waiting time t w If no response is received, the sender of the instruction in the emulation system is assumed to enter an indeterminate state, which may result in the emulation results being untrustworthy. Therefore, to improve the reliability of the system for responding to the external instruction, the real-time performance of the simulation system for responding to the external instruction should be ensured. Namely, the following conditions are satisfied: t is t o <t w
In the virtual-real combined simulation, the virtual entity and the physical entity need to acquire the state of the other party in real time to realize the virtual-real interaction. For example, when the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle and the real unmanned aerial vehicle are formed in a pilot-follower formation mode, the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle and the real unmanned aerial vehicle need to acquire the position of the opposite side in real time, and the position of the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle and the real unmanned aerial vehicle can be acquired according to the relative position relation of the preset formation. Otherwise, the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle and the physical unmanned aerial vehicle enter a state with uncertain positions, and further the simulation result is influenced. The time when the virtual entity state and the physical entity state are synchronized with each other refers to the time when one of the virtual entity and the physical entity sends the state information of the other entity, and the other entity receives the information and completes parameter binding. This time should be as small as possible to ensure that the drone has sufficient time to respond to changes in flight parameters to avoid disjointing the state of the virtual entity from the physical entity.
Further, when constructing the communication control system between real object unmanned aerial vehicle and virtual unmanned aerial vehicle in this embodiment, include:
s114: a positioning system is arranged and used for identifying and positioning the identity of the real object unmanned aerial vehicle;
s115: setting a service computer, wherein the service computer is in communication connection with the positioning system, is used for processing feedback information of the positioning system to form three-dimensional information corresponding to the virtual scene, and is at least used for calculating and determining the expected flight position of the physical unmanned aerial vehicle by combining with an intelligent algorithm;
s116: and a control computer is arranged, is in communication connection with the service computer, the positioning system and the physical unmanned aerial vehicle, and is at least used for receiving the expected flight position of the service computer, generating a corresponding control command, sending the control command to the physical unmanned aerial vehicle, acquiring related information of the physical unmanned aerial vehicle and forwarding the information to the service computer based on a UDP (user Datagram protocol) protocol.
The positioning system in this embodiment is including setting up the GPS module on unmanned aerial vehicle in kind to and lay a plurality of cameras in the scene in kind and set up a plurality of anti-light ball on unmanned aerial vehicle in kind, and control computer links to each other with the GPS module, and the service computer links to each other in order to obtain feedback information with the camera, and can send feedback information to control computer.
The number and/or the positions of the plurality of light reflecting balls on the unmanned aerial vehicles in different real objects are different;
the service unmanned aerial vehicle or the control unmanned aerial vehicle can determine the ID of each real unmanned aerial vehicle and the position state of each real unmanned aerial vehicle in the real scene based on the set number and/or the set position of a plurality of reflective balls in the feedback information of the camera.
Specifically, the boundary has been drawn for unmanned aerial vehicle movable real object scene to the laying of positioning system, and real object's positioning system in this embodiment uses indoor action capture system, through the anti-light ball that lays on the unmanned aerial vehicle of real object to and lay and carry out real object's position and attitude information acquisition in 12 cameras around the place, and its indoor positioning accuracy can reach millimeter level. The number and/or positions of the reflective balls arranged on different physical unmanned aerial vehicles are not fixed, and the ID of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be determined based on the reflective balls with different numbers and/or positions. Further, the simulation system in this embodiment is constructed by using an ROS and a DDS for communication, and simultaneously, a Mavlink (small unmanned vehicle communication protocol) is used as a communication protocol between the control computer and the unmanned aerial vehicle, so as to connect the service computer, the control computer, the indoor positioning system, and the unmanned aerial vehicle. The specific structure is shown in fig. 4, in which the arrows represent the information flow direction.
Preferably, compare and connect in WIFI, communication speed, bandwidth and the stability of wired connection are all better, therefore, in this embodiment, preferably adopt wired connection's mode to access to local area network between unmovable control computer and the service computer, unmanned aerial vehicle uses WIFI and router to access to local area network.
In this embodiment, the control computer mainly implements the following functions:
(1) And acquiring an operation instruction of the physical unmanned aerial vehicle from the service computer, converting the operation instruction into a Mallink (small unmanned vehicle communication protocol) message and sending the Mallink message to the physical unmanned aerial vehicle.
(2) The unmanned aerial vehicle in kind acquires self position according to the GPS module of self, sends for control computer through WIFI, and control computer compares the evidencing from the position message of the information source among the positioning system, confirms unmanned aerial vehicle in kind's state finally.
(3) And the control computer operates the python script, unifies the information related to the information of the physical unmanned aerial vehicle, and sends the information to the service computer through a UDP (user Datagram protocol) protocol, so that the state data acquisition of the physical unmanned aerial vehicle integrating the positioning system and the GPS (global positioning system) data of the physical unmanned aerial vehicle is realized.
The service computer comprises positioning system software, a phantom engine and an intelligent algorithm, and mainly realizes the following functions:
(1) And running positioning system software, acquiring and displaying the motion state data and the three-dimensional space position of the real object unmanned aerial vehicle on an interface in real time, acquiring the running track of each unmanned aerial vehicle within a certain time, and forwarding the position information from the positioning system to the control computer by using the VRPN.
(2) The phantom engine communicates with the indoor positioning system using DDS in the ROS2 environment. And the illusion engine sends the calculation result of the algorithm to the control computer through a UDP protocol, and the control computer generates a Mallink instruction and then sends the Mallink instruction to the corresponding unmanned aerial vehicle so as to control the unmanned aerial vehicle to move.
(3) The simulation platform in the embodiment uses Python as a development language of the intelligent algorithm, and calls related resources in the virtual engine and controls the unmanned aerial vehicle to complete simulation service by running a Python script.
The positioning system determines the ID and the state information of each real unmanned aerial vehicle through the cameras arranged on the periphery of the real scene and the reflective balls distributed on the real unmanned aerial vehicle, wherein the state information comprises position information, information about whether a target position point flight task is completed or not, and the like.
Further, in the virtual-real combined simulation, when the real entity and the virtual entity participate simultaneously, the state synchronization of the real entity and the virtual entity is an important guarantee for achieving the synergistic effect. After the physical unmanned aerial vehicle reaches the target position point, the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle needs to be informed of the information that the physical unmanned aerial vehicle reaches the designated position, and after the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle acquires the information, the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle executes a next step of instruction corresponding to the physical unmanned aerial vehicle.
When simulation is carried out in a pure virtual environment, various simulation conditions are very ideal, and the advantages of the ideal conditions are particularly remarkable in the aspect of communication of a positioning system, a controller and information of an unmanned aerial vehicle. The advantages of the sensor and the controller enable the state synchronization method of the virtual simulation to be simple, and information can be transmitted to other objects only through a simple calling mode after the objects execute specified commands. Meanwhile, the computer simulation related application or software development of the unmanned aerial vehicle is mature, command execution and result confirmation of the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle are packaged completely, and the user only needs to call the function to complete the steps. After the real-object unmanned aerial vehicle is introduced, the real-time position of the unmanned aerial vehicle needs to be read or acquired through data in the DDS, and the links of command execution and result confirmation of the unmanned aerial vehicle are designed by self so as to realize state synchronization between the real-object entity and the virtual entity.
Physical drones have sensor and drone's controller performance limitations in the positioning system that can cause physical drones to shake near the target location point. Therefore, a threshold interval (i.e. the first coordinate threshold of the present application) needs to be designed near the target point, and when the drone enters the threshold interval, that is, it is determined that the drone has reached the target point, the threshold needs to be determined according to the geographic scale of the task executed by the drone and the performance of the sensor, the controller, and the positioning system of the drone itself.
Due to the existence of the threshold interval, the unmanned aerial vehicle always sends out the information of reaching the target point when being in the threshold interval. This may cause the unmanned aerial vehicle to send information that it reaches the previous target point to other entities even if the unmanned aerial vehicle has executed the instruction and moves to the next target point. Therefore, the states of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be misjudged by other entities, and the interlocking of each simulation entity is further caused. In order to solve the above problem, in this embodiment, according to the characteristics of the real unmanned aerial vehicle and the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle and the communication structure of the simulation system, after the real unmanned aerial vehicle reaches a predetermined coordinate point, the real unmanned aerial vehicle simultaneously sends an instruction to the two virtual unmanned aerial vehicles and receives feedback results of the two virtual unmanned aerial vehicles.

s118: if so, the service computer sends the state information of the physical unmanned aerial vehicle to a target virtual unmanned aerial vehicle or a target physical unmanned aerial vehicle behind the physical unmanned aerial vehicle in a formation, so that the target virtual unmanned aerial vehicle or the target physical unmanned aerial vehicle flies to a matched target position point based on respective flight channels, and feeds back the state information to the service unmanned aerial vehicle;
s119: and when the service computer determines that the target virtual unmanned aerial vehicle or the target physical unmanned aerial vehicle flies to the matched target position point based on the state information of the target virtual unmanned aerial vehicle or the target physical unmanned aerial vehicle, the service computer informs the control computer to enable the control computer to respectively generate and send instructions for the physical unmanned aerial vehicle and the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle to fly to the next target position point based on the current state information, formation and respective flight channels of the physical unmanned aerial vehicle and the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle.
