Description

Passive positioning filtering algorithm for airborne photoelectric system to ground under time-varying observation noise condition
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of positioning filtering algorithms, in particular to a passive positioning filtering algorithm of an airborne photoelectric system to ground under a time-varying observation noise condition.
Background
With the rapid development of airborne measurement systems, information exchange technology and computer vision, a new generation of unmanned aerial vehicle carrying a high-precision airborne photoelectric platform is moving towards modularization, light weight and intellectualization. The airborne photoelectric system is used as one of important means for situation awareness of unmanned aerial vehicles, and plays an increasingly critical role in important fields such as military reconnaissance, aerial remote sensing, resource detection and the like. The utilization of an onboard photoelectric system to accurately position a target point in an area becomes one of key technologies of the unmanned aerial vehicle.
At present, most traditional algorithms rely on distance to position a target point, and the distance between the unmanned aerial vehicle and the target point is acquired through a laser range finder, so that the three-dimensional geographic coordinates of the target point are calculated. Sandalwood and the like analyze and study the positioning error of the autonomous positioning technology of the target point of the airborne photoelectric measurement platform by means of the laser ranging value of the ground target point relative to the unmanned aerial vehicle and combining the pose and visual axis information of the unmanned aerial vehicle. Liu et al use distance information to solve the problem of non-linear estimation of passive positioning and tracking by a single observer. Zhang He and the like propose a direct-to-ground target point positioning algorithm based on laser ranging equipment, and high-precision target point positioning can be realized without accurate photoelectric platform posture information. Chen Chen and the like propose to establish a weighted error equation for continuous observation data under a limited observation condition, so that the accuracy of positioning a ground target point is effectively improved.
However, in practical use, the effective working distance of the laser range finder is limited, and good meteorological conditions are often required in the range finding process. In addition, with the improvement of the concealment performance and the self safety requirement of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the unmanned aerial vehicle is required not to be in optical and electrical communication with the outside in the task execution process, so that the risk of being discovered and intercepted is reduced. Therefore, under the condition that the distance information of the target points cannot be acquired, the high-precision passive real-time positioning is carried out on a plurality of target points by utilizing the visible light imaging system and the sensing information of the unmanned aerial vehicle, so that the method becomes a key problem to be solved in the development process of the current unmanned aerial vehicle perception technology.
The passive target point positioning method is widely and deeply researched by students at home and abroad so as to improve the target point positioning precision of the photoelectric platform under the passive condition. Sun Hui the target point positioning mathematical model from the image plane coordinates to the geodetic coordinates of the photoelectric platform imaging system is successfully constructed through linear transformation among different coordinate systems. Bai Guanbing and the like construct an ellipsoid model based on target points according to the digital elevation model, and finally realize real-time positioning of a plurality of target points in the same field of view by utilizing Kalman filtering. The algorithm adopts a Kalman Filter (KF) state estimation algorithm, and the KF algorithm can not deal with the nonlinear problem because the measurement equation of the system is very complex when the airborne photoelectric platform performs target point positioning. Therefore, mu Shaoshuo et al propose an extended kalman filter (extended Kalman filter, EKF) algorithm based on KF algorithm to estimate the geographic location of the ground target point. Liu Zhiming and the like accomplish pixel registration and continuous positioning within the region by multiple scan imaging of the target point region using a stereo imaging algorithm and an extended kalman filter. However, the EKF algorithm requires reasonable setting of the system noise matrix and measurement noise to suppress the system noise, is typically calibrated through extensive experimentation, and requires setting it to a fixed value. When the nonlinear disturbance exists in the photoelectric system due to the change of the running working condition of the airplane, the EKF cannot adaptively adjust the noise matrix containing time-varying characteristics, so that the positioning accuracy of the target point is reduced.
Aiming at the problem that when the unmanned aerial vehicle photoelectric system performs passive positioning of multiple target points, time-varying characteristics exist in system observation noise, the invention provides a combined self-adaptive extended Kalman filtering algorithm (Joint Adaptive Extended Kalman Filtering, JAEKF) for dynamic estimation of the unmanned aerial vehicle photoelectric system on the target point position, and mainly carries out the following research: 1) For the problem of observation noise in positioning, the invention researches a geographic position estimation strategy of a target point based on EKF, and reduces the influence of a visual axis measurement error on positioning precision; 2) For the gradual change of observation noise, the estimation amount and the prediction amount of an observation model are balanced according to the size of a dynamic residual covariance matrix, so that the observation covariance matrix is adjusted in real time; 3) Further, for the variability of the observation noise, an adaptive forgetting factor is introduced into the observation covariance prediction, so that the influence of the unmanned aerial vehicle working condition change on the geographic position estimated value of the photoelectric system is reduced.

Detailed Description
The principles and features of the present invention are described below with reference to the drawings, the examples are illustrated for the purpose of illustrating the invention and are not to be construed as limiting the scope of the invention.
Aiming at the time-varying characteristic of the observation noise of an unmanned aerial vehicle photoelectric system, the invention provides a combined self-adaptive extended Kalman filtering (JAEKF) algorithm for dynamic estimation of the photoelectric system to the geographic position of a target point, and the main content of the method is as follows:
firstly, establishing an unmanned aerial vehicle photoelectric imaging model:

Converting formula (8) into a matrix form, yields:
(9);
assuming that the unmanned aerial vehicle photoelectric system continuously measures a plurality of target points in the field of view for a plurality of times, the navigation coordinates of the target points are selected as state quantities of the system because the estimated object is the geographic position information of the target points, namely
x k =[ L k ,B k ,H k ] T (10);
The state equation of the system is:

wherein:Q k-1 is the system noiseW k-1 Is a covariance matrix of (a).
The observed quantity of the system, namely the pixel coordinates of the target point under the image coordinate system, can be obtained by an image tracker, and the mathematical expression is as follows:
(13);
the observation equation is:
(14);
wherein:V k-1 for measuring noise;h(·) Is a nonlinear function of the observation of the photoelectric platform. In addition, in the case of the optical fiber,V k-1 is the covariance matrix of (2)R k-1
The following is the followingh(x k ) Is a solution process of (1):

(15);
next, the parameters in the formula (15)x c ,y c ,z c ) Can be calculated by the formula (16):
(16);
the EKF algorithm obtains a linear approximation solution by taylor expansion of a nonlinear function, which can be used to update the state estimate of the filter at each time step using a linearized version of the state and observation equations. However, the EKF algorithm needs to reasonably set a system noise matrix and measure noise to suppress the noise of the system, and when the operation condition of the aircraft changes, the algorithm is difficult to adaptively adjust the noise matrix, so that the positioning accuracy of the target point is reduced. Therefore, the invention provides a joint self-adaptive extended Kalman filtering algorithm, which realizes self-adaptive updating of observation noise and ensures steady-state performance of the algorithm through the joint self-adaptive algorithm of the observation noise matrix and the forgetting factor, thereby improving the positioning precision of a target point and the error convergence speed when noise is suddenly changed.
According to the forward Euler method, discrete forms of the system state equation and the measurement equation are obtained:

wherein:klinearization matrix of nonlinear observation function at-1 moment
Equation (17) evolves the problem of target point positioning of the drone into a problem of optimal estimation of target point position by multiple measurements. The state equation of the system is linear, but the measurement equation is nonlinear, so that the position of the target point is recursively estimated by adopting an EKF, and the calculation process comprises the following two steps:
(1) Prediction

Aiming at the gradual change characteristic of the observation noise of the photoelectric system, on the basis of an EKF algorithm, an observation matrix is adjusted in real time according to the size of a dynamic residual between the observed quantity and the predicted quantity of the system, namely, the covariance of the observation noise is estimated through the weighting processing of an observation residual sequence at each discrete moment in a window. The calculation formula is as follows:

Aiming at the mutation characteristic of the observation noise of the photoelectric system, the self-adaptive forgetting factor is introduced in the observation covariance prediction, the transient response speed of the algorithm to the mutation noise is improved, the defect that the stability of the algorithm is reduced by the invariable forgetting factor is overcome, and therefore the influence of the working condition change of the unmanned plane on the geographic position estimated value of the photoelectric system is reduced. The calculation formula of the self-adaptive forgetting factor is as follows:

From equation (22), the adaptive forgetting factor is about 1 when the system enters steady state, so the proposed algorithm has good stability while rapidly processing abrupt noise. By the formula (19)And (4) replacing the algorithm with the formula (23) and combining the formula (19) and the formula (20), namely the constructed combined self-adaptive extended Kalman filtering algorithm, wherein the specific flow chart is shown in figure 4.
The specific data of the simulation experiment of the invention are as follows:
in order to verify the accuracy and the effectiveness of the passive target point positioning algorithm of the unmanned aerial vehicle photoelectric platform, a Monte Carlo statistical test method is adopted for simulation test. Assuming that the geographical location of the target point is (31.000000 °n,114.000000 °e,50.00 m), the drone flies clockwise around the target point at a altitude of 1000m and with a hover radius of 577m, roll angle is 45 °, pitch angle is 0 °, its flight trajectory and measurement target point are shown in fig. 5. The imaging times of the unmanned aerial vehicle photoelectric platform are set to be 200 times, the depression angle of the optical axis is 60 degrees, and the imaging distance is about 1200m.
The unmanned aerial vehicle is provided with a GPS sensor and an inertial navigation sensor which can measure the accurate geographic position and the accurate attitude of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and the measurement error simulation parameters are shown in table 1. According to the error simulation parameters and the flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the attitude angles of the unmanned aerial vehicle and the video camera and the error probability distribution condition are simulated and analyzed by a Monte Carlo method, and the change rule of simulation data is shown in figure 6.
Table 1 measurement error simulation parameters
The focal length of the optoelectronic platform during simulation was 50mm, the pixel size was 2.9 μm, the parameter settings of Table 1 were referenced, and takenn=100, the target point at the center of the image plane was located, and the monte carlo simulation analysis result is shown in fig. 7. The blue dispersion points in FIG. 7 (a) represent all GPS coordinate points of the Monte Carlo simulationA total of 20000; fig. 7 (b) and (c) are error frequency distribution diagrams of a longitude calculated value and a true value, and a latitude calculated value and a true value, respectively, and a red curve is a frequency fitting curve in the form of a normal distribution.
Supposing%L i ,B i ) The result is the ith GPS positioning resultL t ,B t ) The location standard deviation of longitude and latitude is respectively:
from the data in FIG. 7, a longitude positioning standard deviation of 2.5601 ×10 was calculated -4 The standard deviation of latitude positioning is 2.1735 multiplied by 10 -4 And (3) degree. The earth ellipsoid model defined by WGS-84 shows that the round probability error capable of reflecting the positioning accuracy of the geographic position of the target point is
In the method, in the process of the invention,and->The curvature radius of the mortise and tenon circle and the meridian circle respectively,H t for the height of the target point,B t is the latitude of the target point.
Assuming that the error of the height of the target point area is 25m, the covariance matrix of the algorithm is calculatedP 1 Set as [ diag (0.0001,0.00014,25)]The observation process noise was set to [ diag (1, 5)]. In order to verify the improvement of the positioning accuracy of the target point by the proposed algorithm, the EKF, UKF and JAEKF are respectively used for comparison analysis, and the obtained round probability error simulation result is shown in FIG. 8.
As can be seen from fig. 8, the EKF cannot effectively and accurately recognize and process the observation noise when solving the problem of positioning the target point of the photoelectric platform, and the simulation result of the round probability error is maximum and the fluctuation is severe. UKF has better performance to nonlinear and non-Gaussian problems, reduces errors, but cannot effectively track observation noise when the working condition of an airplane changes drastically, and has poor stability of algorithm results and larger fluctuation. AEKF dynamically adjusts observed noise statistics by introducing adaptive control, with further reduction in errors and fluctuations. The JAEKF introduces a self-adaptive forgetting factor in the observation covariance prediction, the error and fluctuation are minimum, and the error is more converged in the later filtering period, which shows that the algorithm of the invention further improves the stability of the observation noise estimation.
The root mean square error is an index reflecting the positioning performance of the algorithm, and the calculation formula is as follows:
in the method, in the process of the invention,mfor the number of information sequences,for the estimation of the positioning information, +.>Is the true value of the positioning information. 100 Monte Carlo simulation calculations were performed for each of the above algorithms and the root mean square errors for the different algorithms were compared (Root Mean Square Error, RMSE) as shown in FIG. 9.
In fig. 9, the left vertical axis represents the root mean square error of longitude and latitude, the right vertical axis represents the root mean square error of round probability, the solid line frame corresponds to the EKF method, the thick dotted line frame corresponds to the UKF method, the dash-dot line frame corresponds to the AEKF method, the thin dotted line frame corresponds to the JAEKF method of the present invention, and in the figure, it can be seen that the root mean square error of the algorithm provided by the present invention is minimum, and has stronger robustness. For positioning accuracy, JAEKF was increased by 43.9%, 30.3% and 14.8% compared to EKF, UKF and AEKF, respectively, on average.
Aiming at the time-varying characteristic of the observation noise of an unmanned aerial vehicle photoelectric system, the invention provides a combined self-adaptive extended Kalman filtering (JAEKF) algorithm for dynamic estimation of the photoelectric system on the geographic position of a target point. For the gradual change of observation noise, the JAEKF algorithm balances the estimated quantity and the predicted quantity of an observation model according to the size of a dynamic residual covariance matrix, so as to adjust the observation covariance matrix in real time; for the variability of observation noise, an adaptive forgetting factor is introduced into the observation covariance prediction, so that the influence of the unmanned aerial vehicle working condition change on the geographic position estimation value of the photoelectric system is reduced. Simulation and actual measurement test results show that the algorithm has the characteristics of high precision, high instantaneity and strong robustness, and can overcome the influence caused by nonlinear disturbance of a photoelectric system when the working condition is obviously changed due to rapid maneuver of the unmanned aerial vehicle, has better observation noise tracking capability and error convergence performance, and effectively improves the estimation precision of geographic positions of a plurality of target points.
