Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present application provides an application scenario of a direction-finding method of an unmanned aerial vehicle. As shown in fig. 1, the application scenario includes an electronic device 100 and at least one unmanned aerial vehicle 200.

In some embodiments, the type of antenna 10 is a directional antenna.
The drone 200 is an unmanned aerial vehicle that may fly in any airspace, such as low altitude, hollow, high altitude, etc., for example, a fixed-wing drone, a rotary-wing drone, an unmanned airship, an umbrella-wing drone, a ornithopter, etc.
The embodiment of the application provides a direction finding method of an unmanned aerial vehicle, which is applied to electronic equipment 100. Referring to fig. 2, the direction-finding method of the unmanned aerial vehicle includes:
s21, controlling the antenna to sweep the surrounding environment to obtain a radio signal emitted by the unmanned aerial vehicle;
in this step, when the electronic device controls the antenna to sweep the surrounding environment, the antenna can sense the electromagnetic field change in the physical space and can convert the electromagnetic field change into the current changing in the wire, wherein the circular sweeping refers to the scanning mode that the antenna beam direction scans on the whole plane.
The radio signals transmitted by the unmanned aerial vehicle comprise flight control signals, image transmission signals and the like, wherein the flight control signals refer to signals transmitted to remote control equipment on the ground by the unmanned aerial vehicle for realizing the functions of taking off, flying in the air, executing tasks, returning to the ground and the like, and the image transmission signals refer to signals which are transmitted to the remote control equipment on the ground in real time and stably on pictures shot by the unmanned aerial vehicle in the air.
S22, generating a circular scanning amplitude sequence and a circular scanning angle sequence according to the radio signal;
in this step, the circular-sweep amplitude sequence is an amplitude measurement value sequence generated by the electronic device in the process of the surrounding environment of the circular-sweep antenna, and the amplitude measurement value is a radio signal amplitude value measured by the electronic device at a certain moment in the process of the surrounding environment of the circular-sweep antenna.
The circular scanning angle sequence is a scanning angle sequence generated by the electronic equipment in the process of scanning the surrounding environment of the antenna, and the scanning angle is obtained by recording the electronic equipment at a certain moment in the process of scanning the surrounding environment of the antenna.
S23, measuring the target direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle relative to the electronic equipment according to the circular scanning amplitude sequence and the circular scanning angle sequence.
Therefore, in the embodiment, the single antenna is used as the only reference for amplitude comparison by controlling the single antenna to sweep the surrounding environment and comparing the amplitude and direction based on the received radio signals, so that the problem of direction finding error caused by antenna pattern distortion due to double-antenna amplitude comparison can be avoided, and the direction finding accuracy and reliability of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be improved compared with the traditional double-antenna amplitude comparison direction finding.
In some embodiments, when generating the circular sweep amplitude sequence from the radio signal, the electronic device generates a time-frequency graph from the radio signal, determines a target frame time-frequency graph from the time-frequency graph, and generates the circular sweep amplitude sequence from the target frame time-frequency graph.
In this embodiment, after the electronic device acquires the radio signal, the electronic device performs data preprocessing on the radio signal by using any suitable signal preprocessing method, such as short-time fourier transform (Short Time Fourier Transform, STFT), to obtain a time-frequency chart, which is an image that visualizes the change of the signal in time and frequency. Time-frequency diagrams are typically used to analyze time-varying characteristics of a signal, such as frequency changes over time.
In some embodiments, the electronic device may sample the time-frequency chart by using any suitable data sampling method to obtain a multi-frame time-frequency chart, where the multi-frame time-frequency chart is the target frame time-frequency chart. For example, the electronic device intercepts a time-frequency diagram every fixed time difference to obtain a target frame time-frequency diagram.
The embodiment of the application provides a target frame time-frequency diagram. Referring to fig. 3, the horizontal axis of the target frame time-frequency graph represents time, the vertical axis represents frequency, and the brightness or color of each point represents the intensity or energy of the signal at that time and frequency. Thus, the target frame time-frequency plot can provide us with an energy distribution of the signal at different frequencies and times, helping us identify frequency components in the signal and how they change over time.
As shown in fig. 3, the time span of the target frame time-frequency chart is 3000×0.04 ms=120 ms, and the time-frequency chart includes a plurality of pulses, wherein the upper and lower center positions of each pulse are about 50, the upper and lower ranges of each pulse are about 100, the width of each pulse is about 4 kinds of widths, namely 50, 75, 100 and 125, respectively, and the difference value on the right side of each two adjacent pulses is the pulse repetition period, and the total number of the difference values is 2, namely 100 and 150.
In some embodiments, when the electronic device generates the circular-sweep amplitude sequence according to the target frame time-frequency diagram, the electronic device extracts the direction-finding lock parameter according to the target frame time-frequency diagram, determines the amplitude measurement value according to the direction-finding lock parameter, and generates the circular-sweep amplitude sequence according to the amplitude measurement value.
In this embodiment, the electronic device may extract the direction-finding lock parameter from the target frame time-frequency chart by using a parameter extraction method such as a pulse detection method, a differential calculation method, or the like, where the direction-finding lock parameter is a parameter for describing a radio signal emitted by the unmanned aerial vehicle, such as a center frequency, a frequency bandwidth, a pulse width, a pulse repetition period, or the like.
In some embodiments, the electronic device determines a center frequency and a frequency bandwidth of each pulse in the target frame time-frequency plot, converts the target frame time-frequency plot into a time-amplitude sequence according to the center frequency and the frequency bandwidth, and extracts the direction-finding lock parameter according to the time-amplitude sequence.
For example, referring to fig. 3 and 4, the electronic device determines the center frequency and the frequency bandwidth of each pulse according to the upper boundary frequency and the lower boundary frequency of each pulse in the target frame time-frequency chart of fig. 3, so as to calculate the upper boundary and the lower boundary of the frequency index as [1,100], calculates the average value of 1 to 100 on the corresponding vertical axis for each column of 1 to 3000 on the horizontal axis, and converts the sequence index into the actual time index, thereby converting the target frame time-frequency chart of fig. 3 into the time-amplitude sequence of fig. 4, wherein the time-amplitude sequence also includes a plurality of pulses, and then the direction-finding locking parameters such as the pulse repetition period, the pulse width and the like can be extracted according to the time-amplitude sequence.
In some embodiments, when determining the amplitude measurement value according to the direction-finding lock parameter, the electronic device determines whether the target measurement is successful according to the direction-finding lock parameter, obtains a determination result, and determines the amplitude measurement value according to the determination result.
Therefore, the method for determining the corresponding amplitude measurement value is provided based on the judgment result of whether the target measurement is successful, so that interference information acquired during each measurement can be filtered, amplitude measurement value errors caused by the fact that the interference information influences the amplitude measurement value calculation are avoided, and accuracy and reliability of the amplitude measurement value can be improved.
In some embodiments, according to the direction-finding locking parameter, determining whether the target measurement is successful, when obtaining the determination result, the electronic device determines whether the pulse repetition period and the pulse width of each pulse in the time-amplitude sequence match the preset pulse repetition period and the preset pulse width, respectively, if both match the preset pulse repetition period and the preset pulse width, the electronic device obtains the determination result of the target measurement success, and if not all match the preset pulse repetition period and the preset pulse width, the electronic device obtains the determination result of the target measurement failure.
For example, the preset pulse repetition period is a set of [4 ] ms, the preset pulse width is a set of [ 23 4 ] ms, please continue to refer to fig. 4, since the pulse repetition periods are 4ms and 6ms in total, both fall into the set of [4 ] ms, at this time, the electronic device can determine that each pulse repetition period matches the preset pulse repetition period, and since the pulse width of each pulse is 2ms, 3ms, 4ms, and 5ms in total, all fall into the set of [ 23 4 ] ms, at this time, the electronic device can determine that the pulse width of each pulse matches the preset pulse width, and then the electronic device determines that the target measurement is successful.
In some embodiments, when determining the amplitude measurement value according to the determination result, if the electronic device obtains the determination result that the target measurement is successful, recording the pulse width and the pulse repetition period, calculating the amplitude value of each pulse according to the pulse width and the pulse repetition period, and determining the amplitude measurement value according to the amplitude value of each pulse, for example, the electronic device performs an average calculation on the amplitude value of each pulse to obtain an amplitude average value, and uses the amplitude average value as the amplitude measurement value; if the electronic device obtains a measurement result of the target measurement failure, the amplitude measurement value is determined to be a preset amplitude value, for example, the preset amplitude value is 0.
Each time the electronic device determines an amplitude measurement, the amplitude measurement is added to the circular sweep amplitude sequence to continuously generate the circular sweep amplitude sequence. The circular sweep amplitude sequence is expressed as follows:
P=(P 1 ,P 2 ,......,P m )
wherein P represents a circular scanning amplitude sequence, P i Representing the amplitude measurement corresponding to the i-th moment.
In some embodiments, the electronic device obtains a scan angle corresponding to the time-frequency diagram of the target frame, and generates the circular scan angle sequence according to the scan angle.
As described above, when the electronic device controls the antenna to sweep the surrounding environment to obtain the radio signal emitted by the unmanned aerial vehicle, the scanning angles at different times are different, so that when the electronic device generates the time-frequency diagram according to the radio signal, the time-frequency diagram is data generated according to the time sequence, and at each time of the time-frequency diagram, the scanning angle at the corresponding time is recorded, and when the electronic device intercepts the target frame time-frequency diagram from the time-frequency diagram, the scanning angle recorded at the time corresponding to the target frame time-frequency diagram can be obtained at the same time. The circular sweep angle sequence is expressed as follows:
A=(A 1 ,A 2 ,......,A m )
wherein A represents a circular scanning angle sequence, A i The scanning angle corresponding to the i-th time is shown.
It can be understood that after the electronic device intercepts the time-frequency diagram of the kth target frame from the time-frequency diagram, the electronic device can obtain the circular scanning amplitude sequence and the circular scanning angle sequence corresponding to the kth moment respectively:
P=(P 1 ,P 2 ,......,P k )
A=(A 1 ,A 2 ,......,A k )
wherein P is 1 And A is a 1 Corresponding to P 2 And A is a 2 Corresponding to … … P k And A is a k Corresponding to the above.
In the process of controlling the surrounding environment of the antenna to be swept by the electronic equipment, whether the annular sweeping is completed or not needs to be judged in real time, and the electronic equipment starts to execute the step of measuring the target direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle relative to the electronic equipment according to the annular sweeping amplitude sequence and the annular sweeping angle sequence only when the annular sweeping is completed.
In some embodiments, when the target direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle relative to the electronic device is measured according to the circular scanning amplitude sequence and the circular scanning angle sequence, the electronic device judges whether the circular scanning is completed according to the circular scanning angle sequence, if the circular scanning is completed, the unmanned aerial vehicle is projected on a preset coordinate system according to the circular scanning amplitude sequence and the circular scanning angle sequence to obtain a target coordinate, and the target direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle relative to the electronic device is measured according to the target coordinate.
In some embodiments, when judging whether to finish the circular scanning according to the circular scanning angle sequence, the electronic device calculates the differential angle of every two adjacent scanning angles in the circular scanning angle sequence, accumulates each differential angle to obtain a differential angle sum, judges whether the absolute value of the differential angle sum is larger than or equal to a preset angle threshold, if the absolute value of the differential angle sum is larger than or equal to the preset angle threshold, the electronic device judges that the circular scanning is finished, if the absolute value of the differential angle sum is smaller than the preset angle threshold, the electronic device judges that the circular scanning is not finished, and when judging that the circular scanning is not finished, the electronic device judges whether to finish the circular scanning according to the newly generated circular scanning angle sequence until the absolute value of the differential angle sum is larger than or equal to the preset angle threshold.
The preset angle threshold can be set according to actual requirements. In this embodiment, the electronic device only needs to control the antenna loop to sweep the surrounding environment for one circle, so that the loop sweeping can be ended and the target direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle relative to the electronic device can be measured, therefore, the preset angle threshold can be set to 360 degrees, and when the absolute value of the difference angle sum is judged to be greater than or equal to 360 degrees by the electronic device, the loop sweeping is judged to be completed.
In order to facilitate accumulating the differential angles, the electronic device transforms the differential angles of every two adjacent scanning angles in the circular scanning angle sequence into the range of [ -180,180] value, and generates a differential angle sequence:
ΔA=(ΔA 1 ,ΔA 2 ,......,ΔA m-1 )
wherein ΔA represents a differential angle sequence, ΔA i Representing A in a circular scanning angle sequence i+1 And A is a i Is transformed to [ -180,180 []Differential angles within the range of values.
ΔA i The determination method of (2) is as follows:
the electronic equipment accumulates each differential angle in the differential angle sequence to obtain a differential angle sum:
where SA represents the differential angle sum.
In some embodiments, when the unmanned aerial vehicle is projected on a preset coordinate system according to the circular scanning amplitude sequence and the circular scanning angle sequence to obtain the target coordinate, firstly, the electronic device rearranges the circular scanning angle sequence and the circular scanning amplitude sequence based on the ascending order of the angle size to obtain the arranged circular scanning angle sequence and the circular scanning amplitude sequence.
The aligned circular scan angle sequence is shown below:
B=(B 1 ,B 2 ,......,B m ) And B is 1 <B 2 <......<B m
The aligned circular sweep amplitude sequence is represented as follows:
Q=(Q 1 ,Q 2 ,......,Q m )
for example, the circular-sweep angle sequence and the circular-sweep amplitude sequence before arrangement are respectively:
A=(10,20,40,30,70,60,50,80,90)
P=(1,2,0,0,3,2,0,1,0)
the arranged circular scanning angle sequence is as follows:
B=(10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90)
since the scan angle 10 corresponds to the amplitude measurement value 1, the scan angle 20 corresponds to the amplitude measurement value 2, the scan angle 30 corresponds to the amplitude measurement value 0, the scan angle 40 corresponds to the amplitude measurement value 0, the scan angle 50 corresponds to the amplitude measurement value 0, the scan angle 60 corresponds to the amplitude measurement value 2, the scan angle 70 corresponds to the amplitude measurement value 3, the scan angle 80 corresponds to the amplitude measurement value 1, and the scan angle 90 corresponds to the amplitude measurement value 0, the circular scan amplitude sequence after arrangement is as follows:
Q=(1,2,0,0,2,3,3,1,0)
and then, the electronic equipment determines the maximum value of the amplitude measurement value of the circular scanning amplitude sequence, and corrects the circular scanning amplitude sequence according to the maximum value of the amplitude measurement value and a preset cut-off threshold to obtain a target amplitude sequence.
In this embodiment, the preset cutoff threshold is a threshold value for filtering measurement points other than the non-main lobe in the antenna pattern.
In some embodiments, the electronic device determines Q i Whether the difference value between the maximum value of the amplitude measurement value and the preset cut-off threshold is larger than or equal to, if so, the electronic equipment judges Q i The correction is as follows:
Q i '=Q i -P max +T p
wherein Q is i ' is a corrected amplitude measurement, P max For maximum amplitude measurement, T p Is a preset cutoff threshold.
If not, the electronic device will Q i The correction is 0.
For example, assume a preset cutoff threshold T p 1, as previously described, the maximum value P of the amplitude measurements of the aligned circular amplitude sequence max 3, correcting the arranged circular scanning amplitude sequence to obtain a target amplitude sequence as follows:
Q'=(0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0)
therefore, in the embodiment, the maximum value of the amplitude measurement values of the arranged circular scanning amplitude sequences and the preset cutoff threshold are corrected, so that the influence of the measurement points except for the non-main lobe in the antenna pattern on the target direction of the subsequent unmanned aerial vehicle relative to the electronic equipment can be removed, and the direction finding accuracy of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be improved.
Finally, the electronic equipment projects the unmanned aerial vehicle on a preset coordinate system according to the target amplitude sequence and the circular scanning angle sequence to obtain a target coordinate (I a ,Q a )。
The preset coordinate system is a north-to-east azimuth coordinate system. For the target coordinates (I a ,Q a ),I a The projection value indicating that the actual direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle is on the east side indicates that the actual direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle is on the east side if the projection value is positive, and indicates that the actual direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle is on the west side if the projection value is negative. Q (Q) a And the projection value of the actual direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle on the north side is shown, if the projection value is positive, the actual direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle is shown on the north side, and if the projection value is negative, the actual direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle is shown on the south side.
In one placeIn some embodiments, the electronic device performs amplitude weighting on the amplitude measurement value corresponding to the corrected circular scanning amplitude sequence through the differential angle of every two adjacent scanning angles in the arranged circular scanning angle sequence, and projects the unmanned aerial vehicle on a preset coordinate system to obtain a target coordinate (I a ,Q a )。
In some embodiments, the electronic device calculates I according to the following formula a
In some embodiments, the electronic device calculates Q according to the following formula a
Therefore, in this embodiment, the difference angle of every two adjacent scanning angles in the arranged circular scanning angle sequence is used to perform amplitude weighting on the amplitude measurement value corresponding to the corrected circular scanning amplitude sequence to determine the target coordinate, where the target coordinate is based on the result of measuring the average value multiple times, so that the problem of large angle deviation of the result caused by single measurement can be avoided, thereby being beneficial to improving the precision of the target coordinate, and further improving the direction finding accuracy of the unmanned aerial vehicle.
In some embodiments, when measuring the target direction of the drone relative to the electronic device according to the target coordinates, the electronic device measures the target direction of the drone relative to the electronic device according to the following formula:
A az =atan2(Q a ,I a )
wherein A is az The target direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle relative to the electronic equipment.
In the trigonometric function, the atan2 function is a variation of the tangent function. For any real parameters X and y that are not equal to 0 at the same time, atan2 (y, X) means the angle between the ray pointing to (X, y) on the coordinate plane and the positive direction of the X-axis, starting from the origin of the coordinates. When y is greater than 0, the included angle between the ray and the positive x-axis direction refers to the angle at which the positive x-axis direction rotates about the counterclockwise direction to the ray; when y is less than 0, the angle between the ray and the positive x-axis direction refers to the angle at which the positive x-axis direction rotates about a clockwise direction to the ray.
