- FIG. 3 a flowchart of an embodiment of a method for allocating a control channel of a flight device according to the present application is shown.
- the embodiment may be applied to the flight management server shown in FIG. 2, and the embodiment may include the following steps:
- Step 301 The flight management server assigns a corresponding flight device to the received task.
- the flight management server can establish contact with each logistics site.
- Each logistics site sends the logistics package of the logistics package to the flight management server as a logistics task when there is a logistics package to be transported.
- Identification used to identify each logistics package received by the flight management server.
- the tasks to be transported including one or more logistics that are transported from the same logistics site to other same logistics sites, are referred to as a logistics task.
- logistics task For example, from logistics site A to logistics site B, there are currently 3 logistics packages to be transported, and the three logistics packages can be transported by one drone, then the three logistics packages can be combined into one logistics task, logistics task.
- the identification may be a unique serial number generated by the flight management server for the logistics task, for example: 201705300114AB.
- the logistics site A is referred to as the departure station of the logistics task
- the logistics site B is referred to as the arrival station of the logistics task.
- the flight management server When the flight management server receives the new logistics task, it assigns a drone to the logistics task according to the situation of the drone corresponding to the departure station identified by the logistics task. For example, at the logistics site A, there are two UAVs available for UAV A and UAV B, while UAV A has a stronger carrying capacity and can carry physical packages of more than 20KG, and the above three logistics packages With a total weight of 21KG, the drone A can be assigned as a drone that undertakes the logistics task "201705300114AB". Of course, if both drones are available, you can choose one at a time.
- Step 302 The flight management server determines, according to the flight information in the task, a flight time of the flight device from the departure station to the arrival station.
- the flight information may include information of the departure station and the arrival station based on the flight information in the mission, for example, the departure station is the logistics station A, and the arrival station is the logistics station B.
- the flight management server calculates the flight time from the departure station to the arrival station based on the average flight speed of the assigned drone.
- the flight time is in actual application, which is the time when the drone meets the preset time condition from the departure station to the arrival station.
- the flight time may be the total occupancy time of drone A flying from logistics site A to logistics site B.
- the estimated flight time can be obtained by dividing the distance from the logistics site A to the logistics site B by the flight speed of the drone A.
- the flight time can also be the time to meet the preset partial time conditions.
- the departure time from the departure station and the landing time at which the arrival station begins to land ie the time of smooth flight between the departure station and the arrival station, is no longer calculated during the flight time.
- those skilled in the art can also set other time conditions to obtain flight time, which is used to filter which control channels of the departure station or the arrival station are idle during the flight time.
- Step 303 The flight management server allocates, to the flight device, a target control channel that meets a preset flight condition according to the logistics information and the flight time.
- each of the logistics stations can use the 80 control channels.
- the control channel occupancy table of each logistics station includes a time and a control channel in the control channel occupancy table, that is, whether a certain control channel is in an idle state within a certain period of time. For example, for the control channel occupancy table of the logistics site A, the information of the time period "10:00 on May 15, 2017 to 10:10 on May 15, 2017" is saved, and the control channel corresponding to the time zone is controlled. Channel 1 indicates that the control channel occupied at the logistics site A is the control channel 1 during this time period.
- step 303 may include the following steps A1 to A3:
- Step A1 During the flight time, look up the control channel that is idle at the departure station and the arrival station as a candidate channel.
- the flight management server can first find the control channel that is idle at both the departure station and the arrival station, in order to facilitate the logistics station A at the departure station and the logistics station B at the arrival station.
- Candidate channel Assuming that the flight time is the total occupancy time, which is 15 minutes in total, the flight management server looks for a control channel that is idle at both the logistics site A and the logistics site B within 15 minutes from the current time. For example, within 15 minutes, there is control channel 3 in the idle channel of the logistics station A, and within the control channel 315 minutes, the logistics station B is also the idle channel, then the control channel 3 is the candidate channel, and so on, from 80 control channels. All candidate channels.
- the departure time at the departure station is 2 minutes and the landing time at the arrival station is also 2 minutes, it is possible to separately find the idle channel of the logistics station A within 2 minutes of the departure time, and 2 minutes during the landing time.
- the idle channel of the internal logistics station B is sufficient. It is not necessary to consider whether the control channel is idle within 11 minutes of the flight of the flying device.
- the flight management server may first search for the control channel that is idle within 15 minutes in the control channel occupancy table corresponding to the logistics site A. As candidate set 1. The flight management server then searches for the idle control channel within 15 minutes from the control channel occupancy table corresponding to the logistics site B as the candidate set 2, and then the flight management server intersects the candidate sets 1 and 2 to obtain the logistics site A. And the logistics station B are both idle candidate channels.
- Step A2 selecting a channel farthest from each used channel from the candidate channels as a target channel for controlling the flying device at the departure station and the arriving station.
- a candidate channel that is relatively far away from the used channel may be selected as the final determined target channel.
- the using the channel may include: at least the control channel corresponding to the departure station or the arrival station being non-idle during the flight time. Specifically, when searching for a candidate channel that is the farthest from each used channel, the difference between the candidate channel and the channel identifier of each used channel may be separately calculated, and then the candidate channel having the largest absolute value among the differences may be It is determined to control the target channel of the flying device.
- control channel 6, control channel 10, and control channel 15, and the control channel 25, control channel 61, and control channel 76 are used, and the identification numbers of the candidate channels are respectively 25, 61, and 76.
- Subtraction, -19, -55, and -70 are obtained for control channel 6, -15, -51, and -66 for control channel 10, respectively -10, -46, and -61 for control channel 15, respectively.
- the absolute value is the difference between the control channel 6 and the use channel 76. Therefore, the control channel 6 can be used as the target channel for controlling the flight device at the departure station and the arrival station.
- step A1 Before step A2, it can be determined whether the candidate channel, that is, the control channel that is idle and the arrival station is idle, is successfully queried. If the query is successful, step A2 is performed; if the query is unsuccessful, step A3 is entered:
- Step A3 querying an idle control channel in the control channel occupancy table corresponding to the departure station as a departure station channel for controlling the flight device at the departure station; and a control channel occupancy table corresponding to the arrival station The idle control channel is queried as the arriving station channel controlling the flying device at the arriving station.
- the departure station channel is used to receive the heartbeat message of the remote controller of the departure station, and the flight device switches to the heartbeat of the remote controller of the arrival station channel to receive the arrival station when the arrival station landed.
- the message is fine.
- the channel on which the departure station is idle is the control channel 5
- the channel on which the station is idle is the control channels 15 and 27, then [Control Channel 5, Control Channel 15] can be used as the candidate channel 1, wherein the departure station channel is the control channel 5
- the arriving station channel is the control channel 15; [Control Channel 5, Control Channel] 27 may also be used as the candidate channel 2, wherein the starting station channel is the control channel 5 and the arriving station channel is the control channel 27.
- a target control channel capable of controlling the flight device at both the departure station and the arrival station is obtained, and the flight management server transmits the target control channel to the flight device. If the target control channel is the same control channel at both the originating station and the arriving station, then only one channel identifier can be transmitted, and if the originating station channel and the arriving station channel are different, the flight management server can identify and arrive at the channel of the departure station channel. The channel identification of the station channel is sent to the flight device.
- the departure station channel and the arrival station channel are not the same control channel as an example, and then proceeds to step 304.
- Step 304 The flight management server transmits the departure station channel and the arrival station channel to the flight device, and sends a channel enable request of the departure station channel to a remote controller of the departure station.
- the flight management server transmits the channel identifier of the departure station channel and the channel identifier of the arrival station channel to the flight device, and after receiving the two channel identifiers, the flight device first receives on the control channel indicated by the channel identifier of the departure station channel.
- Heartbeat message from the remote control of the departure station.
- the flight management server may also send a channel enable request of the departure station channel to the remote controller of the departure station, wherein the channel enable request may include: a flight device identifier, a logistics task identifier, a channel identifier of the departure station channel, and a duration.
- the remote controller of the departure station transmits a heartbeat message to the corresponding flight device of the flight device identification on the departure station channel for the duration.
- Step 305 The flight device determines whether a heartbeat message from the remote controller of the departure station can be received on the departure station channel, and if yes, proceeds to step 306.
- the flight device When the arrival station takes off, the flight device first checks whether the channel identifier of the departure station channel and the channel identifier of the arrival station channel delivered by the flight management server are received, and if received, on the control channel corresponding to the channel identifier of the departure station channel. , receiving heartbeat messages from the remote control of the departure station.
- Step 306 The flight device takes off from the departure station according to a preset flight route in the flight device.
- the remote control of the departure station can control the flight device, so if the flight device can receive the heartbeat message from the remote control of the departure station, then the flight The device can take off from the departure station according to the preset flight route.
- the operator on the ground can recognize more clearly, and the red and green double fog fog lights can be preset on the flying device once the receiving from the departure station is received.

- those skilled in the art can also use other methods with distinctive identification features to identify.
- Step 307 After the flight device takes off, the flight management server monitors the real-time flight position of the flight device.
- a real-time flight position is synchronized to the flight management server during flight of the flight device. For example, the actual distance to the departure station changes, or whether a certain waypoint is reached, etc., so that the flight management server can monitor the flight device from the departure station to the arrival station.
- Step 308 The flight management server determines whether the real-time flight position of the flight device meets a preset channel switching condition, and if yes, the process proceeds to step 309.
- Some channel switching conditions may be preset in the flight management server, and the channel switching condition is used to indicate that the flying device is about to land at the arriving station. In this case, if the starting station channel and the arriving station channel are not the same control channel, it is necessary to arrive. The channel enable request for the station channel is sent to the remote control of the arriving station. Of course, if the departure station channel and the arrival station channel are the same control channel, step 308 may not be performed.
- the flight management server can determine in real time whether the flight device has completed half of the flight from the departure station to the arrival station according to the received real-time flight position of the flight device, or whether it flies to the first stage before arriving at the station. A waypoint, etc., if any of the preset one or more channel switching conditions are met, step 309 is performed.
- Step 309 The flight management server sends an enable request of the arrival station channel to the remote controller of the arrival station, and sends a release request of the departure station channel to the remote controller of the departure station, so as to The remote control of the departure station releases the channel resources of the departure station channel and releases the channel resources of the departure station channel.
- the flight device In the case where the flight device enters the vicinity of the arrival station to start an accurate landing, if the flight device normally flies to the arrival station on the flight route, it can land normally. In practical applications, there may be situations where multiple flight devices need to land at the same time at the arrival station. In this case, if the flight device is normally flying to the arrival station, the landing process can be directly performed. At the same time, the remote controller arriving at the station can only send heartbeat messages on one of the arriving station channels. Therefore, if multiple flying devices need to land at the same time, the remote controller arriving at the station only needs to control the abnormal flying device to land. Other flight devices that do not have an abnormality can directly land normally.
- the remote controller of the arrival station acquires the three flight devices from the request for the arrival station channel of the three flight devices transmitted from the flight management server.
- A, B, and C correspond to the arrival station channels A, B, and C, respectively.

- the flight management server may also modify the non-idle state of the departure station channel to the idle state in the control channel occupancy table of the saved departure station, and release the channel resource of the departure station channel.
- the remote controller of the arriving station can be quickly switched to the arrival station channel C to complete the manual control of the landing process of the flight device C.
- the remote control of the arriving station can be on the corresponding arrival station channel of the flying device.
- some channel switching conditions may also be preset, for example, leaving the departure station above a preset distance threshold (for example, 2 kilometers, etc.), or continuing the preset time threshold (for example, 1 minute, etc.) is not received.
- the heartbeat message from the remote controller of the arriving station, etc. the flight device can reset the control channel receiving the heartbeat message, and automatically switch to the arrival station channel to receive the heartbeat message sent by the remote controller from the arriving station.
- the signaling interaction diagram between the flight management server, the flight device, the departure station, and the remote controller of the arrival station can be referred to FIG. 4.
- the arrival station channel and the departure station channel are sent together to the flight device, and the channel enable request of the departure station channel (which may include the departure station channel identification, the flight device)
- the identification is sent to the remote controller of the departure station, and the flight device uses the departure station channel to receive the heartbeat message sent by the remote controller of the departure station and take off.
- the flight device synchronizes the flight position information to the flight management server in real time, and when the flight device satisfies the preset channel switching condition, the flight device switches to the arrival station channel to receive the heartbeat message sent by the remote controller of the arrival station.
- the flight management server transmits a channel enable request to the station channel to the remote controller of the arrival station when the preset channel switching condition is satisfied, and transmits a channel release request of the departure station channel to the remote controller of the departure station, and the flight management server Release the channel resources of the departure station channel. Then, the remote controller of the arrival station sends a heartbeat message to the flying device that has an abnormality on the arrival station channel, and the flying device that has an abnormality receives the heartbeat message on the arrival station channel, then landed at the departure station; no abnormality occurred.

Description
本申请要求2017年08月16日递交的申请号为201710702657.6、发明名称为“飞行装置的控制信道的分配方法、起飞方法和遥控方法”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
本申请涉及飞行遥控技术领域,特别涉及一种飞行装置的控制信道的分配方法、起飞方法、起飞遥控方法和降落遥控方法,以及,一种飞行管理服务器、飞行装置、起飞遥控器和降落遥控器。
在互联网越来越普及的目前,几乎所有的用户都在互联网上进行购物,相应的,物流行业也发展的越来越快。随着物流行业的普及,采用飞行装置,例如无人机,来运输物流包裹的现象也越来越常见。以无人机物流为例,无人机货物运送一般分为三个阶段,载货起飞,航线飞行和末端货物投递即无人机降落,通过将物流包裹在不同的物流站点之间进行飞行运输,可以解决实际中道路不好走或拥挤等一系列问题。
发明内容
发明人在研究过程中发现,在无人机的降落和起飞阶段,往往因为飞行高度比较低,可能出现行人、电线、房屋等干扰因素,是风险高发的阶段,所以在这一阶段通常采用备用遥控器一对一地对无人机进行辅助控制,即遥控器处于备用等待状态,并不对无人机进行实际控制,只有在突发情况发生时可以快速切换进入主动控制状态,通过控制用户的经验和操作,避免无人机发引发事故。
发明人在研究过程中还发现,由于遥控器和无人机都是一对一配置,而在物流站点无人机的流动性很大,如果在各个物流站点都为每一个无人机都配备一个专用的遥控器,一方面成本比较高;另一方面也很难对同一个物流站点的多个遥控器进行区别,如果因为遥控器使用混乱,不仅不能达到人工正确干预无人机的目的,甚至会引发更严重的事故。
基于此,本申请提供了一种飞行装置的控制信道的分配方法,用以预先将2.4G无线频段划分为80个控制信道,从而在同一个物流站点的各无人机和各遥控器共享全部控制 信道,也因此,在各个物流站点各采用一台遥控器即可分别控制多台无人机,即无人机和遥控器之间不再一对一进行控制;同时,本申请实施例还能够保证在多台无人机同时起飞或降落时,遥控器能够根据需要控制其中一台无人机进行控制,并可以快速在多个无人机对应的多个控制信道之间进行切换,从而提升遥控器的频谱利用效率,降低无人机之间的接收干扰。此外,本申请还可以在无人机上配置遥控信号指示灯,帮助操作用户区分是否已经联通所需控制的无人机。

在本申请实施例中,需要预先对2.4G无线频段进行划分。2.4G无线频段,是指频率处于2.405GHz-2.485GHz(科学、医药、农业)之间的频段。在本申请实施例中,首先将2.4G无线资源频段2.400GHz~2.480GHz划分为80个子通信频道,每一个频道宽度为1M,并且,按照22M间隔循环设置跳频图谱。在本实施例中将这样一个1M的频点及其对应的跳频图谱作为一个控制信道,则得到一共80个控制信道,控制信道之间互相分离并能够获取跳频增益。因此,一个控制信道可以包括起始频点和跳频图案两部分, 而80个控制信道按照起始频点顺序进行从1~80的编号(即控制信道标识),而这80个控制信道的划分方式预先固化在飞行管理服务器、飞行装置(例如无人机等)和遥控器中,根据编号可以得到一个唯一的控制信道。
具体的,跳频图谱可以参考图1所示,在图1中,横轴为物理频道的跳频周期,频点即物理频道的中心位置;纵轴为时隙,为了实现频道资源的跳频增益,一般会把时间划分成若干个时间片,一个时间片即图1中的一个方块就是一个时隙,在图1中,第一列方块中从1到80的序号用于表示控制信道的编号,第二列方块表示起始频点。在图1中,表示一个跳频周期内,逻辑频道在每一个时隙内的物理位置,因为一个跳频周期内同一个逻辑信道在不同的物理频道上来回变化,所以叫做跳频。在图1中,同一种绘图方式的多个方块表示一个逻辑频道(逻辑频道即采用控制信道标识来区分),而逻辑频道在跳频周期内第一个时隙的位置就是起始频点。例如,方块内都有字母“A”的各方块表示一个逻辑频道,以此类推,方块内都有字母“D”的各方块表示一个逻辑频道,方块内都是右斜线的各方块表示一个逻辑频道,而方块内都是左斜线的各方块也表示一个逻辑频道,等等。当然,这仅仅是示例性数据,在实际应用中,仍然可以采用其他方式来标识同一个逻辑频道。
在本申请实施例中,无人驾驶飞机简称“无人机”,是利用无线电遥控设备和自备的程序控制装置操纵的不载人飞机。机上无驾驶舱,但安装有自动驾驶仪、程序控制装置等设备,以飞行装置为无人机进行举例示意。
在本申请实施例中,任务可以是物流任务,例如从出发站采用飞行装置将一个或多个物流包裹运输至到达站,则从出发站运输这一个或多个物流包裹的任务即是物流任务。任务还可以是监控任务,例如可以采用飞行装置对出发站或到达站的设备进行监控等。任务还可以是摄影任务,例如,采用飞行装置对在出发站和到达站之间进行航拍的任务,等等。因此,本申请实施例可以适用于从出发站采用飞行装置飞行至到达站来完成的任何任务。
参考图2,为本申请在实际应用中的示例性场景示意图。其中,飞行管理服务器101可以管理预先划分的各控制信道,以及各出发站和各到达站的飞行装置102(例如无人机)。具体的,飞行管理服务器101可以将哪一个出发站或到达站处,有多少个无人机可以使用,以及哪一个出发站或到达站,哪一个控制信道处于空闲状态,可以用来作为控制某个无人机的出发站信道或到达站信道等。其中,无人机的出发站信道用于表示在 无人机起飞的出发站用来对无人机进行控制的控制信道,而到达站信道用于表示在无人机降落的到达站用来对无人机进行控制的控制信道。
为了描述方便,以下以任务为物流任务为例进行说明。在有物流任务产生时,例如,存在一个从图2中的出发站运输至到达站的物流包裹,则飞行管理服务器101可以为该物流任务(在实际应用中可以采用物流任务标识来进行区分)分配一个无人机,并且,为该无人机分配用于起飞时控制该无人机的出发站信道,以及用于降落时控制该无人机的到达站信道。在本申请实施例中,在每一个出发站或到达站,均设置一个与该出发站对应的出发站的遥控器103,或者到达站的遥控器104。飞行管理服务器为无人机分配出发站信道或者到达站信道后,会将出发站信道的信道使能请求通知出发站的遥控器103,以便出发站的遥控器103可以在该出发站信道上控制无人机的起飞;以及,飞行管理服务器可以将到达站信道的信道使能请求发送至到达站的遥控器104,以便到达站的遥控器104可以在到达站信道上控制无人机的降落。
而无人机在出发站起飞前,可以在出发站信道上接收出发站的遥控器发送的心跳消息,如果能接收到,再按照预设的飞行路线起飞,如果接收不到,就不进行起飞,从而保证了出发站的遥控器能够成功在出发站信道上控制无人机以避免不可控的情况发生。同理,在无人机将要在到达站开始降落时,也在到达站信道上接收到达站的遥控器发送的心跳消息,如果能接收到再开始降落,这样就方便到达站的遥控器在无人机出现意外情况或者需要对无人机进行控制时,可以正常使用到达站信道向无人机发送控制指令,从而实现对无人机的控制。
参考图3,示出了本申请一种飞行装置的控制信道的分配方法实施例的流程图,本实施例可以应用于图2所示的飞行管理服务器上,本实施例可以包括以下步骤:
步骤301:飞行管理服务器为接收到的任务分配对应的飞行装置。
在实际应用中,以任务为物流任务为例,飞行管理服务器可以与各物流站点建立联系,各物流站点在有物流包裹需要运输的时候,将物流包裹的物流号码发送至飞行管理服务器作为物流任务标识,用来标识飞行管理服务器收到的各物流包裹。在本实施例中,将从同一个物流站点运输至其他的相同物流站点的一个或多个物流包括的待运输任务,称为一个物流任务。例如,物流站点A到物流站点B,当前有3个物流包裹待运输,且该3个物流包裹可以采用一台无人机运输,则可以将这3个物流包裹合并为一个物流任务,物流任务标识可以是飞行管理服务器为该物流任务生成的唯一序列码,例如: 201705300114AB。当然,这仅仅是示例性的数据。其中,可以理解的是,在本实施例中将物流站点A称为该物流任务的出发站,而将物流站点B称为该物流任务的到达站。
飞行管理服务器在接收到新的物流任务时,会根据该物流任务标识的出发站对应的无人机情况,为该物流任务分配一个无人机。例如,在物流站点A有无人机A和无人机B共两台无人机可用,而无人机A的承载能力更强一些,能承载20KG以上的物理包裹,且上述3个物流包裹的总重量为21KG,则可以将无人机A分配为承担物流任务“201705300114AB”的无人机。当然,如果两台无人机都可以选择,则可以随机选择一台。
步骤302:飞行管理服务器依据所述任务中的飞行信息,确定所述飞行装置从所述出发站飞行至所述到达站的飞行时间。
在分配了无人机后,根据任务中的飞行信息,该飞行信息可以包括出发站和到达站的信息,例如,出发站为物流站点A,到达站为物流站点B。飞行管理服务器依据被分配的无人机的平均飞行速度,计算从出发站飞行至到达站的飞行时间。其中,飞行时间在实际应用中,是无人机从出发站飞行至到达站的过程中满足预设时间条件的时间。例如,飞行时间可以是无人机A从物流站点A飞行至物流站点B的全部占用时间。例如,无人机A的飞行速度为120km/h,则将物流站点A到物流站点B的距离除以无人机A的飞行速度,就可以得到预计的飞行时间。当然,飞行时间还可以是满足预设的部分时间条件的时间。例如,从出发站开始起飞的起飞时间,以及,在到达站开始降落的降落时间,即不再将在出发站和到达站之间平稳飞行的时间计算在飞行时间内。当然,本领域技术人员也可以设置其他的一些时间条件来得到飞行时间,用来筛选在该飞行时间内出发站或到达站的哪些控制信道是空闲的。
步骤303:飞行管理服务器依据所述物流信息和所述飞行时间,为所述飞行装置分配满足预设飞行条件的目标控制信道。
在实际应用中,因为已经预先划分了80个可用的控制信道,则每个物流站点都可以使用这80个控制信道,为了方便飞行管理服务器对各个物流站点的控制信道的管理,飞行管理服务器保存了各个物流站点的控制信道占用表,在控制信道占用表中包括时间和控制信道,即在某个时间段内,某个控制信道是否为空闲状态。例如,对于物流站点A的控制信道占用表中,保存有时间段“2017年5月15号10:00至2017年5月15号10:10”的信息,对应该时间段的控制信道为控制信道1,则表示在该时间段内,在物流站点A被占用的控制信道为控制信道1。
具体的,步骤303可以包括以下步骤A1~步骤A3:
步骤A1:在所述飞行时间内,查找在所述出发站和所述到达站空闲的控制信道,作为候选信道。
为了方便在出发站即物流站点A,以及到达站即物流站点B,都能通过控制信道对无人机进行控制,飞行管理服务器首先可以查找到在出发站和到达站都空闲的控制信道,作为候选信道。假设飞行时间为全部占用时间,一共为15分钟,则飞行管理服务器就查找从当前时刻开始的15分钟内,在物流站点A和物流站点B都空闲的控制信道。例如,15分钟内物流站点A的空闲信道中有控制信道3,而控制信道315分钟内在物流站点B也是空闲信道,则控制信道3就是候选信道,以此类推,从80个控制信道中找出所有的候选信道。
当然,假设在出发站的起飞时间为2分钟,而在到达站的降落时间也是2分钟,则可以分别查找在起飞时间的2分钟内物流站点A的空闲信道,以及,在降落时间的2分钟内物流站点B的空闲信道即可。在飞行装置平稳飞行的11分钟内可以无需考虑控制信道是否空闲。
具体的,在飞行管理服务器保存了各个物流站点的控制信道占用表的情况下,飞行管理服务器可以先在物流站点A对应的控制信道占用表中查找全部占用时间即15分钟内空闲的控制信道,作为候选集合1。飞行管理服务器接着再从物流站点B对应的控制信道占用表中查找15分钟内空闲的控制信道,作为候选集合2,接着飞行管理服务器将候选集合1和2进行交集,即可得到在物流站点A和物流站点B都空闲的候选信道了。
步骤A2:从所述候选信道中选择与各使用信道的距离最远的信道,作为在所述出发站和所述到达站控制所述飞行装置的目标信道。
为了进一步避免信道之间的干扰,在实际应用中,可以选择离使用信道距离比较远的候选信道作为最终确定的目标信道。其中,使用信道可以包括:在所述飞行时间内,至少有出发站或到达站对应的状态为非空闲的控制信道。具体的,在查找与各使用信道的距离最远的候选信道时,可以分别计算各候选信道与各使用信道的信道标识之间的差值,然后将差值中的绝对值最大的候选信道,确定为控制飞行装置的目标信道即可。
例如,候选信道有3个,控制信道6、控制信道10和控制信道15,而使用信道有控制信道25、控制信道61和控制信道76,则分别将候选信道的标识号与25、61和76相减,对于控制信道6则分别得到-19、-55和-70,对于控制信道10则分别得到-15、-51和-66,对于控制信道15则分别得到-10、-46和-61。而绝对值最大的是控制信道6与使 用信道76的差值,因此,可以将控制信道6作为在出发站和到达站控制飞行装置的目标信道。
因为在实际应用中,可能不会存在同时在出发站和到达站都空闲的控制信道,而是仅仅在出发站空闲或者仅仅在到达站空闲的控制信道,则可以理解的是,在步骤A1之后步骤A2之前,还可以判断候选信道即出发站和到达站都空闲的控制信道是否查询成功,查询成功的情况下执行步骤A2;如果查询不成功,则进入步骤A3:
步骤A3:在所述出发站对应的控制信道占用表中查询空闲的控制信道,作为在所述出发站控制所述飞行装置的出发站信道;以及,在所述到达站对应的控制信道占用表中查询空闲的控制信道,作为在所述到达站控制所述飞行装置的到达站信道。
在本步骤中,因为没有同一个控制信道在出发站和到达站同时都空闲,所以就可以查找仅在出发站空闲的控制信道作为出发站信道,并查找仅在到达站空闲的控制信道作为到达站信道。在实际应用中,飞行装置在出发站起飞时,采用出发站信道来接收出发站的遥控器的心跳消息,而飞行装置在到达站降落时再切换为到达站信道接收到达站的遥控器的心跳消息即可。
例如,出发站空闲的信道为控制信道5,到达站空闲的信道为控制信道15和27,则可以将[控制信道5,控制信道15]作为候选信道1,其中的出发站信道为控制信道5,到达站信道为控制信道15;也可以将[控制信道5,控制信道]27作为候选信道2,其中的出发站信道为控制信道5,到达站信道为控制信道27。
执行步骤303之后,得到在出发站和到达站都能控制飞行装置的目标控制信道,飞行管理服务器再将目标控制信道发送至飞行装置。如果目标控制信道在出发站和到达站都是同一个控制信道,则可以仅发送一个信道标识,而如果出发站信道和到达站信道不同,则飞行管理服务器可以将出发站信道的信道标识和到达站信道的信道标识都发送给飞行装置。
在本实施例中,以出发站信道和到达站信道不是同一个控制信道为例进行说明,接着进入步骤304。
步骤304:飞行管理服务器将所述出发站信道和到达站信道发送至所述飞行装置,以及,将所述出发站信道的信道使能请求发送至所述出发站的遥控器。
飞行管理服务器将出发站信道的信道标识和到达站信道的信道标识都发送至飞行装置,飞行装置在接收到这两个信道标识后,首先在该出发站信道的信道标识指示的控制信道上接收来自出发站的遥控器的心跳消息。同时,飞行管理服务器还可以将出发站信 道的信道使能请求发送至出发站的遥控器,其中,信道使能请求可以包括:飞行装置标识、物流任务标识、出发站信道的信道标识和持续时间,出发站的遥控器就在该持续时间内在出发站信道上向飞行装置标识对应的飞行装置发送心跳消息。
步骤305:飞行装置判断在所述出发站信道上是否能接收到来自所述出发站的遥控器的心跳消息,如果是,则进入步骤306。
在到达站起飞时,飞行装置首先检查是否接收到飞行管理服务器下发的出发站信道的信道标识和到达站信道的信道标识,如果接收到,则在出发站信道的信道标识对应的控制信道上,接收来自出发站的遥控器的心跳消息。
步骤306:飞行装置按照所述飞行装置中预设的飞行路线从出发站起飞。
因为只有出发站的遥控器和飞行装置同时工作在同一个控制信道下,出发站的遥控器才能对飞行装置进行控制,所以如果飞行装置能接收到来自出发站的遥控器的心跳消息,则飞行装置就可以按照预设的飞行路线从出发站起飞。
可以理解的是,为了使得飞行装置处于遥控器辅助控制的情况下,地面的操作人员能够更为清楚的辨识,可以在飞行装置上预先设置红绿双闪雾灯,一旦接收到来自出发站的遥控器的心跳消息,就可以控制双闪雾灯开始闪动,并且在接收不到心跳消息的情况下,控制双闪雾灯停止闪动。当然,本领域技术人员也可以采用其他具有显著性识别特点的其他方式来进行标识。
步骤307:在所述飞行装置起飞之后,飞行管理服务器监控所述飞行装置的实时飞行位置。
在所述飞行装置的飞行过程中,向所述飞行管理服务器同步实时飞行位置。例如,与出发站的实际距离变化,或者是否到达了某一个航点等,以便飞行管理服务器对飞行装置在出发站至到达站之间进行全程监控。
步骤308:飞行管理服务器判断所述飞行装置的实时飞行位置是否满足预设的信道切换条件,如果是,则步进入步骤309。
在飞行管理服务器可以预先设置一些信道切换条件,信道切换条件用于表示飞行装置快要在到达站降落了,这种情况下,如果出发站信道和到达站信道不是同一个控制信道,就需要将到达站信道的信道使能请求发送至到达站的遥控器上。当然,如果出发站信道和到达站信道是同一个控制信道,则可以不执行步骤308。
在实际应用中,飞行管理服务器根据接收到的飞行装置同步的实时飞行位置,可以实时判断飞行装置是否已经飞完从出发站至到达站的航程的一半,或者,是否飞至到达 站之前的第一个航点,等等,如果满足这些预先设置好的任意一个或多个信道切换条件,则执行步骤309。
步骤309:飞行管理服务器将所述到达站信道的使能请求发送至所述到达站的遥控器,以及,向所述出发站的遥控器发送所述出发站信道的解除请求,以便在所述出发站的遥控器释放所述出发站信道的信道资源,以及,释放出发站信道的信道资源。
在飞行装置进入到达站附近区域开始准确降落的情况下,如果飞行装置在飞行路线上正常飞行至到达站了,就可以正常降落。在实际应用中,可能会存在在到达站有多个飞行装置在同一时间需要降落的情况,在这种情况下,如果飞行装置是正常飞行至到达站,就可以直接执行降落流程。在同一时间,到达站的遥控器只能在一个到达站信道上发送心跳消息,因此,如果有多个飞行装置同一时间需要降落,到达站的遥控器只需要控制那个出现异常的飞行装置进行降落,其他未出现异常的飞行装置直接正常降落即可。
假设有飞行装置A、B、C同时进入到达站附近,到达站的遥控器会从飞行管理服务器发送的、这三个飞行装置的到达站信道的使能请求中,获取到这三个飞行装置A、B、C分别对应的到达站信道A、B、C。到达站的遥控器在同一个时间,可以工作在任意一个到达站信道上,即可以在任意一个到达站信道上发送心跳消息来控制该到达站信道对应的飞行装置。其中,到达站信道的使能请求也可以包括:飞行装置标识、物流任务标识和到达站信道。同时,飞行管理服务器还可以在保存的出发站的控制信道占用表中,将出发站信道的非空闲状态修改为空闲状态,并释放出发站信道的信道资源。
在飞行装置A、B、C开始降落时,假设操作人员目测到飞行装置C状态不正常,可以将到达站的遥控器快速切换到到达站信道C上,完成对飞行装置C降落过程的人工控制。不过在实际应用中,大多数情况在同一个时间只有一架飞行装置需要降落,到达站的遥控工作在这架飞行装置对应的到达站信道上即可。
而对于飞行装置来讲,也可以预先设置一些信道切换条件,例如,离开出发站在预设距离阈值(例如2公里等)以上,或者,持续预设时间阈值(例如1分钟等)没有收到来自到达站的遥控器的心跳消息等,则飞行装置可以重新设置接收心跳消息的控制信道,自动切换至到达站信道上接收来自到达站的遥控器发送的心跳消息。
具体的,飞行管理服务器、飞行装置、出发站和到达站的遥控器之间的信令交互图可以参考图4所示。在图4中,飞行管理服务器控制信道成功分配之后,将到达站信道和出发站信道一并发送给飞行装置,并且,将出发站信道的信道使能请求(可以包括出发站信道标识、飞行装置标识等)发送至出发站的遥控器,飞行装置使用出发站信道接 收出发站的遥控器发送的心跳消息并起飞。在飞行装置的起飞过程中,飞行装置向飞行管理服务器实时同步飞行位置信息,并且飞行装置在满足预设信道切换条件时,切换至到达站信道接收到达站的遥控器发送的心跳消息。
而飞行管理服务器则在满足预设信道切换条件时,向到达站的遥控器发送到达站信道的信道使能请求,并且向出发站的遥控器发送出发站信道的信道解除请求,同时飞行管理服务器释放出发站信道的信道资源。接着,到达站的遥控器在到达站信道上向出现异常的飞行装置发送心跳消息,而出现异常的飞行装置在到达站信道上接收到心跳消息后,就在出发站进行降落;未出现异常的飞行装置则在到达站自行降落即可,同时,飞行管理服务器将到达站信道的信道资源进行释放。
在实际应用中,因为各出发站或到达站,都仅仅配置了一个遥控器,因此,如果在相同时间或者接近时间内,在某个出发站有多个无人机需要起飞,或者在某个到达站有多个无人机需要降落,可以在对应的遥控器上设置信道选择旋钮等,具体的,遥控器的一个示例性控制界面可以参考图5所示。
在图5中,假设为到达站的遥控器,则遥控器上可以设置一个活动信道显示屏幕501和信道选择旋钮502,在活动信道显示屏幕501上用于按照接收时间的先后顺序,从上到下地依次显示到达站的遥控器接收到的使能请求中的各个到达站信道。例如对于图5来讲,该到达站的遥控器最先接收到的到达站信道为控制信道15,最后接收到的到达站信道为控制信道31,当前一共有3个活动信道。当然,在活动信道显示屏幕上还可以和控制信道标识一并显示物流任务标识和飞行装置标识、以及出发站和到达站等等,便于操作人员分辨和选择信道。
而到达站的遥控器最新接收到的控制信道则依次显示在控制信道31下方的列表中即可。操作人员可以通过旋转信道选择旋钮502来选中与出现异常的飞行装置对应的某一个活动信道,选择后遥控器就立即使用选中的活动信道以及使用飞行装置标识和物流任务标识携带在心跳消息中发送给该飞行装置。在实际应用中,如果活动信道显示屏幕501的显示内容为空,则默认选中最新显示的活动信道。
同时,飞行管理服务器还可以向出发站的遥控器发送出发站信道的解除请求,该解除请求中可以包括:出发站信道标识、物流任务标识和飞行装置标识,出发站的遥控器接收到该解除请求之后,就可以将出发站信道对应的那一列活动信道显示列表进行删除。其中,遥控器与飞行管理服务器可以通过物流站点WI-FI网络或者移动通信网络建立长链接,并通过该长链接来接收前述的控制信道的使能请求和控制信道的解除请求。
可见,在本申请实施例中,采用飞行管理服务器统一管理预先划分的多个控制信道,每一个控制信道都包括:子通信频道和按照预设的信道间隔循环设置的跳频图谱,飞行管理服务器在为接收到的物流任务分配对应的飞行装置后,再计算飞行装置从所述出发站飞行至所述到达站的飞行时间,为所述飞行装置分配在该飞行时间内在出发站和到达站都空闲的控制信道,用来对飞行装置在起飞或降落时进行辅助控制。通过上述方式,就可以无需对遥控器和飞行装置进行一对一的绑定控制,只需要在起飞和降落时采用飞行管理服务器预先分配的控制信道进行控制,并在控制完成之后释放该控制信道的信道资源即可。
因此,采用本申请实施例,在各个物流站点各采用一台遥控器即可分别控制多台无人机,即无人机和遥控器之间不再一对一进行控制;同时,本申请实施例还能够保证在多台无人机同时起飞或降落时,遥控器能够根据需要控制其中一台无人机进行控制,并可以快速在多个无人机对应的多个控制信道之间进行切换,从而提升遥控器的频谱利用效率,降低无人机之间的接收干扰。此外,本申请实施例还可以在无人机上配置遥控信号指示灯,帮助操作用户区分是否已经联通所需控制的无人机。
对于前述的方法实施例,为了简单描述,故将其都表述为一系列的动作组合,但是本领域技术人员应该知悉,本申请并不受所描述的动作顺序的限制,因为依据本申请,某些步骤可以采用其他顺序或者同时进行。其次,本领域技术人员也应该知悉,说明书中所描述的实施例均属于优选实施例,所涉及的动作和模块并不一定是本申请所必须的。
