Description

Unmanned aerial vehicle force collaborative hanging and carrying method based on single-axis tension sensor
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of special operation of flying robots, and particularly relates to a single-shaft tension sensor-based unmanned aerial vehicle force collaborative suspension carrying method, which is suitable for a clustered unmanned aerial vehicle system for executing collaborative operation tasks such as air carrying, air load posture adjustment and the like.
Background
Along with the continuous acceleration of urban transformation, the urban surface space is difficult to meet the development needs of cities, so that the full development and utilization of the urban overhead space are particularly critical. As a key carrier for aerial work and transportation, unmanned aerial vehicles are increasingly used in the field of load handling.
Traditionally, the air load transportation task is completed by a single-frame rotary-wing unmanned aerial vehicle hanging load. However, the single suspension point has limited load control capability, and for long or heavy loads, if a single unmanned aerial vehicle is used for carrying, high requirements are put on the area of a propeller blade and the size of a rotor wing, so that the transportation cost is greatly increased, and the difficult problem of mass center deviation of the load is difficult to deal with. In conclusion, the single unmanned aerial vehicle has limited air transportation load capacity and high cost, and is difficult to meet the requirement of carrying load in the air in an efficient and economical manner.
Aiming at the bottleneck problems of extremely limited handling capacity, low carrying capacity and the like faced by the single unmanned aerial vehicle carrying, the use of a plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles for carrying loads in a coordinated manner has become a new trend in the field of air carrying, and the single unmanned aerial vehicle carrying device has obvious advantages in the aspects of carrying capacity, transportation cost, task redundancy and the like. In the process of carrying loads cooperatively by unmanned aerial vehicles, system dynamics presents a complex coupling structure, and the lift uncertainties of all unmanned aerial vehicles are inconsistent, which provides greater challenges for cooperative control of the unmanned aerial vehicles. In order to balance the loads of a plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles in the cooperative conveying task, the unmanned aerial vehicles have the capability of independently adjusting the respective loads, so that the endurance time of single cooperative conveying of the unmanned aerial vehicles is prolonged, and the problem of influence of the complex dynamic structure and the lifting force uncertainty on the balanced loads of the unmanned aerial vehicles in the design process of the control algorithm of the unmanned aerial vehicles is required to be solved.
The chinese patent application CN202110000112.7 proposes a load tracking control method for coordinated transportation of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles, but there is a problem: the load positioning sensor is required to be introduced to determine the position of the load, so that the cost is high; the control method for the cooperative flying and lifting of the multiple unmanned aerial vehicles is provided in Chinese patent application CN202210076996.9 and Chinese patent application CN202110799601.3, but two problems exist: (1) The influence of the lift uncertainty of the unmanned aerial vehicle in the transportation process is not considered; (2) In the method, the unmanned aerial vehicle is difficult to autonomously sense and adjust the load of the unmanned aerial vehicle.
Therefore, the method does not consider the problem of load average distribution of the unmanned aerial vehicle under the condition of uncertainty of lift force, so as to complete the high-difficulty air cooperative transport task.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to overcome the defects of the prior art, the invention provides an unmanned aerial vehicle force cooperative hanging and conveying method based on a single-axis tension sensor for an unmanned aerial vehicle cooperative conveying system. The method can adjust the load of the multi-unmanned aerial vehicle in the air for cooperative operation, and prolongs the duration of single transportation.
In order to achieve the above purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
firstly, establishing a dynamics model of suspension load of a plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles;
secondly, installing a single-shaft tension sensor on the rope;
thirdly, designing a vertical rope force observer based on the model in the first step;
and fourthly, designing a force cooperative control algorithm according to the vertical rope force estimated in the third step.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
the invention is mainly oriented to an unmanned plane cooperative transportation system. Compared with the traditional single-frame unmanned aerial vehicle carrying mode, the multi-unmanned aerial vehicle carrying mode has the advantages of being stronger in load capacity and higher in task redundancy, but the perception and the adjustment capacity of the unmanned aerial vehicle on the load can be influenced by the uncertainty of the lifting force. By installing the single-shaft tension sensor and designing the corresponding vertical rope force observer based on the model, the invention can obviously improve the capacity of the unmanned aerial vehicle for sensing the self load under the influence of the uncertainty of the lifting force. By designing the force cooperative control algorithm, the invention solves the problem that the rope force is difficult to adjust in the prior method, realizes the average distribution of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles to the load, and prolongs the endurance time of single carrying tasks.
