1 is a block diagram of a drone control system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, the drone control system may include a control server 100 and a plurality of drones 110. However, since the drone control system of FIG. 1 is only an embodiment of the present invention, the present invention is not limitedly interpreted through FIG. 1, and may be configured differently from FIG. 1 according to various embodiments of the present invention.

Generally, each component of the drone control system of FIG. 1 is connected through a network (not shown). Network refers to a connection structure capable of exchanging information between nodes such as terminals and servers, and a local area network (LAN), a wide area network (WAN), and the Internet (WWW: World) Wide Web), wired and wireless data communication networks, telephone networks, and wired and wireless television communication networks. Examples of wireless data communication networks include 3G, 4G, 5G, 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), Long Term Evolution (LTE), World Interoperability for Microwave Access (WIMAX), Wi-Fi, Bluetooth communication, infrared communication, ultrasound Communication, Visible Light Communication (VLC), LiFi, and the like are included, but are not limited thereto.

The control server 100 may manage drone identification information for a plurality of drones.

The control server 100 may receive drone identification information for a drone to be controlled from an administrator, and receive location information for a control location where the drone is controlled. Here, the drone identification information may include, for example, a drone identifier, a manufacturer identifier, drone specification information, and drone usage information. For example, the control server 100 may receive information on at least one of a drone identifier, a manufacturer identifier, drone specification information, and drone use information for a drone to be controlled.

The control server 100 may generate an authentication code based on the drone identification information and location information input from the administrator. In addition, the control server 100 may generate an authentication code based on the time information at the time of generating the authentication code.

The control server 100 may generate a control command for the drone as a control target. For example, the control server 100 may generate a control command to cause the drone to stop operating at the current position in which the drone is operating, and return to the origin where the drone started operating or permit the flight to be set by the drone. It is possible to generate a control command to control the movement to the area, or to generate a control command to control the drone to force landing at the current location.

The control server 100 may transmit a command message including an authentication code and the control command to a plurality of drones 110.

The plurality of drones 110 may include a GPS module connected to GPS for air control of the control server 100, an authentication module for a network module for a wireless communication network (eg, 4G, 5G, etc.) and an authentication code. Can be.

At least one of the plurality of drones 110 may receive a command message from the control server 100. At this time, the drone receiving the command message can be controlled based on the control command included in the command message if the authentication code is valid through the authentication module and the authentication code is valid.

  For example, in the case of a drone flying in a location where the location information of the drone receiving the command message corresponds to location information (location information input from an administrator) constituting the authentication code, the validity of the authentication code through the authentication module Can be verified. Of the drones receiving the command message, the drone running at a position corresponding to the location information input from the administrator can be controlled based on the control command included in the command message after the validity of the authentication code is verified.

For example, in the case of a drone that receives a command message within a predetermined period (eg, within 10 minutes) from the time information at the time of generating the authentication code, the validity of the authentication code is verified by the authentication module, and the corresponding drone Can be controlled based on the control command. If, in the case of a drone that has received a command message beyond a preset period from time information at the time of generating the authentication code, the validity of the authentication code is lost and is not controlled according to the control command.

For example, in the case of a drone that matches the drone identification information of the drone receiving the command message and the drone identification information (drone identification information input from the administrator) constituting the authentication code, the validity of the authentication code by the authentication module It is verified, and the drone can be controlled based on a control command.

Hereinafter, the operation of each component of the drone control system of FIG. 1 will be described in more detail.

2 is a block diagram of the control server 100 shown in FIG. 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, the control server 100 may include a management unit 200, an authentication code generation unit 210, a control command generation unit 220, and a transmission unit 230. However, the control server 100 shown in FIG. 2 is only one example of implementation of the present invention, and various modifications are possible based on the components shown in FIG. 2.

The management unit 200 may manage drone identification information for a plurality of drones. Here, the drone identification information includes, for example, a drone identifier, a manufacturer identifier, drone specification information (eg, drone size, weight and output information) and drone use information (eg, public use, business use, personal use). Can be.

For example, the management unit 200 receives drone identification information of each drone from a user terminal of a plurality of users who have purchased a plurality of drones, and manufactures a plurality of drones by manufacturer and drones based on the received plural drone identification information. It can be classified and managed by standard and drone use.

The authentication code generation unit 210 may generate an authentication code based on the drone identification information and location information input from the administrator.

For example, when the location information including latitude and longitude is input from the administrator as identification information of a drone requiring forced control for a specific drone and information about a drone's flight area, the authentication code generator 210 is input An authentication code may be generated based on drone identification information and location information.

For example, when compulsory control of a drone manufactured by a specific manufacturer is required, the authentication code generation unit 210 may identify the manufacturer identifier for a specific manufacturer and generate an authentication code by setting the remaining parts to 0. For example, suppose that the drone identification information consists of 'XXXXXX' (manufacturer identifier) + 'XXXX' (drone specification information) + 'XXXX (drone usage information) +' XXXXXXXX '(serial number), and the manufacturer is the same. If a forced command for a drone is required, the authentication code generator 210 may include 'XXXXXX' (manufacturer identifier) + '0000' (drone specification information) + '0000' (drone usage information) + '00000000' (serial number) ) To generate an authentication code.

For example, when it is necessary to force control of a drone of a specific manufacturer in flight at a specific location, the authentication code generation unit 210 may generate an authentication code based on the manufacturer's identifier and specific location information of the specific manufacturer.

For example, when compulsory control of a drone having specific drone specification information is required, the authentication code generation unit 210 may specify the specific drone specification information and generate an authentication code by setting the remaining parts to zero. For example, if a forced command for a drone having the same drone specification information is required, the authentication code generator 210 may use '000000' (manufacturer identifier) + 'XXXX' (drone specification information) + '0000' (for drone use) Information) + '00000000' (serial number) can generate an authentication code.

For example, when compulsory control of a drone having specific drone specification information in flight at a specific location is required, the authentication code generator 210 may generate an authentication code based on the specific drone specification information and the specific location information. have.

For example, when forced control of a drone having specific drone usage information is required, the authentication code generator 210 may specify the corresponding drone usage information and generate an authentication code by setting the remaining parts to zero. For example, if a forced command for a drone having the same drone usage information is required, the authentication code generator 210 may include '000000' (manufacturer identifier) + '0000' (drone specification information) + 'XXXX' (drone usage) Information) + '00000000' (serial number) can generate an authentication code.

For example, when forced control of a drone having specific drone usage information in flight at a specific location is required, the authentication code generator 210 may generate an authentication code based on the specific drone usage information and specific location information. have.

For example, when compulsory control of the entire drone is required, the authentication code generator 210 may generate an authentication code based on common identification information commonly applied to all drones. For example, if a forced command is required for the entire drone, the authentication code generation unit 210 may include '000000' (manufacturer identifier) + '0000' (drone specification information) + '0000' (drone usage information) + ' You can generate an authentication code with 00000000 '(serial number).

For example, when it is necessary to force control of the entire drone in flight at a specific location, the authentication code generator 210 may generate an authentication code based on the common identification information and the specific location information.

The authentication code generator 210 may generate an authentication code based on the time information at the time of generating the authentication code. Specifically, the authentication code generator 210 may generate an authentication code based on the received drone identification information and location information and time information at the time of generating the authentication code.

The control command generator 220 may generate a control command for the drone. For example, the control command generator 220 may generate a control command for the drone step by step in an emergency situation based on the emergency situation in a specific area detected by the control server 100. For example, when a first emergency situation occurs in a specific location, the control command generation unit 220 may generate a first control command to cause the drone to stop running at the current location in which the drone is running. The control command generation unit 220 may generate a second control command to control the drone to return to the origin where the drone has started operating or to move the drone to a preset flight permission area when a second emergency situation occurs in a specific area. have. The control command generation unit 220 may generate a third control command that controls the drone to force landing at the current location in which the drone is currently operating when a third emergency situation occurs in a specific area.

The transmitting unit 230 may transmit a command message including the generated authentication code and control command. For example, the transmission unit 230 may transmit a command message through a wireless communication network (eg, 4G, 5G network, etc.) to a plurality of drones operating in a preset range from location information input from the administrator. Here, the command message is received by at least one of a plurality of drones, and the validity of the authentication code can be verified by the authentication module of the drone receiving the command message. At this time, the drone whose validity for the authentication code has been verified may be controlled based on the control command included in the command message.

For a moment, the method of controlling the drone will be described with reference to FIG. 3.

Referring to FIG. 3, in the first embodiment, authentication is performed based on first drone identification information (eg, 'K00001 S001 W010 90000001') and first location information 301 received from an administrator in the control server 100. It is assumed that a code is generated, a control command for a drone having the first drone identification information is generated, and then a command message including an authentication code and a control command is transmitted.

In the case of drones 315 and 317 that are flying at a position corresponding to location information 319 other than the first location information 301, the location information of the drone receiving the command message is from the corresponding drones 315 and 317. Since the authentication code included in the received command message is invalid, the corresponding drones 315 and 317 cannot be controlled according to the control command.

Each drone (303, 305, 307, 309, 311, 313) receiving a command message among drones (303, 305, 307, 309, 311, 313) operating at a position corresponding to the first location information 301 By analyzing the received command message to extract the first drone identification information constituting the authentication code, and confirming whether the extracted first drone identification information matches its own drone identification information for the authentication code included in the command message During validation, the validity of the drone identification information can be verified.
