图3为本发明另一个实施例的无人机天线复用装置的结构示意图。
为使本发明的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本发明实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
图1为本发明一个实施例的无人机天线复用方法的流程示意图。如图1所示,本发明实施例的方法包括:
S11:宽频天线接收外部信号,并将接收到的外部信号发送至第一功分器。
需要说明的是,本发明实施例的无人机设置有宽频天线,宽频天线的工作频段根据无人机上功能模块的工作频段进行设定,涵盖无人机的各个功能模块的工作频段,用于接收外部信号,外部信号中包括多种频段范围的信号。
S12:第一功分器将从宽频天线接收到的外部信号分成多路子信号,并将各路子信号分别发送至与第一功分器相连的对应无人机上各个功能模块的多个接收滤波器,其中,子信号的路数是根据无人机的各个功能模块的工作频段确定的。
需要说明的是,第一功分器将一路外部信号能量分成两路或多路信号能量输出,即将外部信号分成多路子信号后,每路子信号中均包括多种频段的信号;第一功分器分别将各路子信号分别发送至各个接收滤波器。
其中,子信号的路数是根据无人机的各个功能模块的工作频段确定的。例如,当无人机中包括两个功能模块,且这两个功能模块具有两个不同的工作频段,则将外部信号分成两路子信号。
S13:各个接收滤波器对接收到的子信号进行滤波处理,获得与无人机的各个功能模块工作频段对应的信号,并将与无人机的各个功能模块的工作频段对应的信号发送至相应的功能模块。
需要说明的是,本发明实施例中与第一功分器相连的各个接收滤波器在接收到子信号后,对接收到的子信号进行滤波处理,只允许指定频段的子信号通过,将其他频段的子信号滤除,获得与无人机的各个功能模块工作频段对应的信号,从而将与无人机的各个功能模块的工作频段对应的信号发送至相应的功能模块。
本发明实施例提供的无人机宽频天线复用方法,在无人机上设置宽频天线,通过宽频天线接收所有外部信号,结合第一功分器,并将接收到的外部信号分成多路子信号,并将各路子信号分别发送至对应无人机上各个功能模块的接收滤波器,供各个接收滤波器对接收到的子信号进行滤波处理,获得与无人机的各个功能模块工作频段对应的信号,并发送至相应的功能模块,供各个功能模块使用。相比于现有技术,本发明采用一根宽频天线替代现有的多根天线,实现所有外部信号的接收,并通过第一功分器和多个接收 滤波器的处理将无人机所需的各种信号发送至对应的功能模块,大大减轻了无人机的重量,提高了无人机的续航时间。
在本发明的一个实施例中,外部信号包括GPS卫星信号和飞行控制信号;
第一功分器将从宽频天线接收到的外部信号分成多路子信号包括:
第一功分器将从宽频天线接收到的外部信号分成第一路子信号和第二路子信号;
各个接收滤波器对接收到的子信号进行滤波处理,获得与无人机的各个功能模块工作频段对应的信号,并将与无人机的各个功能模块的工作频段对应的信号发送至相应的功能模块,包括:
第一GPS滤波器对第一路子信号进行滤波处理,从第一路子信号中获取对应第一频段的GPS卫星信号,将获取的GPS卫星信号发送至无人机的定位模块;
飞行控制滤波器对第二路子信号进行滤波处理,从第二路子信号中获取对应第二频段的飞行控制信号,将获取的飞行控制信号发送至无人机的遥控接收模块。
在实际应用中,无人机的定位模块的工作频段为1.57GHz,无人机的遥控接收模块的工作频段为2.4GHz。
这里,第一GPS滤波器用于获得与定位模块的工作频段相对应的信号,具体实施时,第一GPS滤波器为获得GPS卫星信号,对第一路子信号进行滤波处理,滤除除GPS卫星信号以外的信号,如接收的外部信号包括1.57GHz的GPS卫星信号和2.4GHz的飞行控制信号时,第一GPS滤波器允许1.57GHz的GPS卫星信号通过,滤除2.4GHz的飞行控制信号,将1.57GHz的GPS卫星信号发送至无人机的定位模块。
飞行控制滤波器用于获得与遥控接收模块的工作频段相对应的信号,具体实施时,飞信控制滤波器为获得飞行控制信号,对第二路子信号进行滤波处理,滤除除飞行控制信号以外的信号,如接收到的外部信号包括1.57GHz的GPS卫星信号和2.4GHz的飞行控制信号时,第一GPS滤波器允许2.4GHz的飞行控制信号通过,滤除1.57GHz的GPS卫星信号,将2.4GHz的飞行控制信号发送至无人机的遥控接收模块。
为了提高无人机的定位精确性,无人机上的定位模块为差分GPS模块,通过接收到的GPS地面基站卫星信号对GPS卫星信号进行修正。
进一步地,本发明实施例宽频天线接收的外部信号还包括GPS地面基站卫星信号;
第一功分器将从宽频天线接收到的外部信号分成多路子信号包括:
第一功分器将从宽频天线接收到的外部信号分成第一路子信号、第二路子信号和第三路子信号;
各个接收滤波器对接收到的子信号进行滤波处理,获得与无人机的各个功能模块工作频段对应的信号,并将与无人机的各个功能模块的工作频段对应的信号发送至相应的功能模块,还包括:
基站信号滤波器对第三路子信号进行滤波处理,从第三路子信号中获取对应第二频段的GPS地面基站卫星信号,将获取的GPS地面基站卫星信号发送至无人机的定位模块。
由于无人机的遥控器与遥控接收模块的通信采用时域跳频技术,而无人机的定位模块接收GPS地面基站卫星信号的工作频段与遥控接收模块的工作频段相同(均为2.4GHz),为保证GPS地面基站卫星信号和飞行控制信号的正常接收,飞行控制滤波器的滤波通过频段与基站信号滤波器的滤波通过频段部分重叠。
具体实施时,无人机的遥控器与遥控接收模块的通信采用时域跳频技术,在不同的时刻占用频段内不同的信道,若把2.4GHz频段(2.4GHz-2.5GHz)全部划分给遥控接收模块,则会把2.4GHz-2.5GHz的所有信道占满,然而定位模块接收GPS地面基站卫星信号的频段也是2.4GHz。因而,本发明实施例将2.4GHz频段中的部分信道划分给遥控接收模块,并根据信道划分,设置飞行控制滤波器的滤波通过频段与基站信号滤波器的滤波通过频段部分重叠。例如,将2.4GHz-2.45GHz的信道划分给遥控接收模块;飞行控制滤波器使用法国2.4GHz滤波器,其滤波通过频段为2.4GHz-2.45GHz;基站信号滤波器采用普通的2.4GHz滤波器,其滤波通过频段为2.45-2.5GHz。
在实际应用中,无人机的遥控器与遥控接收模块采用跳频技术,二者相互约定了随机变化码,只有遥控接收模块能根据随机变化码解析获得飞行控制信号,而定位模块无法解析获得飞行控制信号,仅能获得GPS地面基站卫星信号。
进一步地,在第一GPS滤波器对第一路子信号进行滤波处理之后,还包括:
通过与第一GPS滤波器相连的GPS低噪放大器对GPS卫星信号进行处理,得到放大后的GPS卫星信号;
通过第二功分器对放大后的GPS卫星信号进行处理得到两路GPS卫星子信号,其中一路GPS卫星子信号经第二GPS滤波器发送至无人机的姿态传感器,其中另一路GPS 卫星子信号经第三GPS滤波器发送至无人机的定位模块。
需要说明的是,为了保证发送至无人机的定位模块和姿态传感器的GPS卫星信号的质量,第一GPS滤波器与GPS低噪放大器相连,由GPS低噪放大器对GPS卫星信号进行处理。
可理解的是,无人机的姿态传感器接收到GPS卫星信号后,能根据GPS卫星信号更加准确的确定无人机的姿态。
进一步地,该方法还包括:
第一功分器从发送滤波器接收无人机的至少一个功能模块发送的无人机运行状态数据;
将无人机运行状态数据通过宽频天线进行发送。
可理解的是,本发明实施例还可以通过发送滤波器接收无人机的功能模块采集的无人机的运行状态数据,发送滤波器将接收的运行状态数据发送至第一功分器,第一功分器通过宽频天线将运行状态数据向外发送。
具体地,无人机运行状态数据包括无人机飞行数据和无人机采集的图像数据;
第一功分器从发送滤波器接收无人机的至少一个功能模块发送的无人机运行状态数据,包括:
第一运行状态滤波器接收无人机的飞行数据模块发送的无人机飞行数据;
第二运行状态滤波器接收无人机的图像数据模块发送的无人机采集的图像数据;
其中,无人机飞行数据和图像数据是在无人机的控制器的控制下以时域复用的方式分别发送至第一运行状态滤波器和第二运行状态滤波器的;
运行状态合路器对无人机飞行数据和无人机采集的图像数据进行合并,生成无人机运行状态数据;
发送滤波器接收经无人机运行状态数据功率放大器处理后的无人机运行状态数据;
第一功分器从发送滤波器接收无人机运行状态数据。
在实际应用中,飞行数据模块和图像数据模块的工作频段均为5.8GHz,为了避免无人机运行状态数据失真,无人机的控制器的飞行数据模块和图像数据模块以时域复用的方式将各自采集的数据分别发送至第一运行状态滤波器和第二运行状态滤波器。举例来说,无人机飞行数据的数据量较小,无人机采集的图像数据的数据量较大,可在1s 的时间内50ms发送无人机飞行数据,950ms发送无人机采集的图像数据。
需要说明的是,现有的无人机一般设置有6根天线,包括:工作频段为1.57GHz的第一GPS天线,用于接收GPS卫星信号,将接收到的GPS卫星信号发送至无人机的定位模块;工作频段为1.57GHz的第二GPS天线,用于接收GPS卫星信号,将接收到的GPS卫星信号发送至无人机的姿态传感器;工作频段为2.4GHz的遥控接收天线,用于接收遥控器发送的飞行控制信号,将接收到的飞行控制信号发送至遥控接收模块;工作频段为2.4GHz的数据传输天线,用于接收GPS地面基站卫星信号,将接收的GPS地面基站卫星信号发送至定位模块;工作频段为5.8GHz的数据传输天线,用于接收无人机飞行数据,将接收的无人机飞行数据发送至地面站;工作频段为5.8GHz的图像传输天线,用于接收无人机采集的图像数据,将接收的图像数据发送至地面站。
上述6根天线设置在无人机上,增加了无人机的重量,降低了无人机的续航时间。因而,本发明实施例采用宽频天线替代上述6根天线,通过功分器和滤波器的处理将无人机所需的各种信号发送至对应的功能模块,并将无人机采集的数据发送至地面站,大大减轻了无人机的重量,提高了无人机的续航时间。
现有的无人机的6根天线中,最小的工作频段为1.57GHz,最大的工作频段为5.8GHz,因此,在实际应用中,宽频天线的工作频段为1GHz-6GHz,以保证宽频天线能覆盖所有的工作频段;方向为全向性,保证能在各个方向接收外部信号。另外,该宽频天线的阻抗为50欧姆,全工作频段内回波损坏小于-8db。
图2为本发明一个实施例的无人机天线复用装置的结构示意图。如图2所示,本发明实施例的装置包括:
包括:宽频天线21、第一功分器22和多个接收滤波器23;
宽频天线21用于接收外部信号,并将接收到的外部信号发送至第一功分器22;
第一功分器22用于将从宽频天线22接收到的外部信号分成多路子信号,并将各路子信号分别发送至与第一功分器22相连的对应无人机上各个功能模块的多个接收滤波器23,其中,子信号的路数是根据无人机的各个功能模块的工作频段确定的;
各个接收滤波器23用于对接收到的子信号进行滤波处理,获得与无人机的各个功能模块工作频段对应的信号,并将与无人机的各个功能模块的工作频段对应的信号发送至相应的功能模块。
本发明实施例提供的无人机天线复用装置,在无人机上设置宽频天线,通过宽频天线接收所有外部信号,结合第一功分器,将接收到的外部信号分成多路子信号,并将各路子信号分别发送至对应无人机上各个功能模块的接收滤波器,供各个接收滤波器对接收到的子信号进行滤波处理,获得与无人机的各个功能模块工作频段对应的信号,并发送至相应的功能模块,供各个功能模块使用。相对于现有技术,本发明采用一根宽频天线替代现有的多根天线,实现所有外部信号的接收,并通过第一功分器和多个接收滤波器的处理将无人机所需的各种信号发送至对应的功能模块,大大减轻了无人机的重量,提高了无人机的续航时间。
在本发明一个实施例中,如图3所示,无人机天线复用装置包括宽频天线301、第一功分器302和多个接收滤波器;多个接收滤波器包括第一GPS滤波器303和飞行控制滤波器311;
第一功分器302具体用于将从宽频天线301接收的外部信号分成第一路子信号和第二路子信号;
第一GPS滤波器303对第一路子信号进行滤波处理,从第一路子信号中获取对应第一频段的GPS卫星信号,将获取的GPS卫星信号发送至无人机的定位模块309;
飞行控制滤波器311用于对第二路子信号进行滤波处理,从第二路子信号中获取对应第二频段的飞行控制信号,将获取的飞行控制信号发送至无人机的遥控接收模块312。
在实际应用中,第一路子信号和第二路子信号中均包括1.57GHz的GPS卫星信号和2.4GHz的飞行控制信号;第一GPS滤波器303的滤波通过频段为1.57GHz,使得第一路子信号中1.57GHz的GPS卫星信号通过,2.4GHz的飞行控制信号被滤除,将1.57GHz的GPS卫星信号发送至无人机的定位模块309;飞行控制滤波器311的滤波通过频段为2.4GHz,使得第二路子信号中2.4GHz的飞行控制信号通过,1.57GHz的GPS卫星信号被滤除,将2.4GHz的飞行控制信号发送至无人机的遥控接收模块312。
为保证对微弱的GPS卫星信号没有影响,第一GPS滤波器303的插入损耗小于1db。
进一步地,多个接收滤波器还包括基站信号滤波器310;
第一功分器302进一步用于将从宽频天线301接收到的外部信号分成第一路子信号、第二路子信号和第三路子信号;
基站信号滤波器310进一步用于对第三路子信号进行滤波处理,从第三路子信号中 获取对应第二频段的GPS地面基站卫星信号,将获取的GPS地面基站卫星信号发送至无人机的定位模块309。
在实际应用中,第一路子信号、第二路子信号中和第三路子信号中均包括1.57GHz的GPS卫星信号、2.4GHz的飞行控制信号和2.4GHz的GPS地面基站卫星信号。
无人机的遥控器与遥控接收模块的通信采用时域跳频技术,在不同的时刻占用频段内不同的信道,若把2.4GHz频段(2.4GHz-2.5GHz)全部划分给遥控接收模块,则会把2.4GHz-2.5GHz的所有信道占满,然而GPS地面基站卫星信号的频段也是2.4GHz。因而,本发明实施例设置飞行控制滤波器311的滤波通过频段与基站信号滤波器310的滤波通过频段部分重叠,飞行控制滤波器311使用法国2.4GHz滤波器,其滤波通过频段为2.4GHz-2.45GHz;基站信号滤波器310采用普通的2.4GHz滤波器,其滤波通过频段为2.45-2.5GHz。
进一步地,该装置还包括:GPS低噪放大器304、第二功分器305、第二GPS滤波器306和第三GPS滤波器308;
GPS低噪放大器304与第一GPS滤波器303相连,用于对GPS卫星信号进行处理,得到放大后的GPS卫星信号;
第二功分器305用于对放大后的GPS卫星信号进行处理得到两路GPS卫星子信号;
第二GPS滤波器306用于对其中一路GPS卫星子信号进行滤波处理,将滤波处理后的GPS卫星子信号发送至无人机的姿态传感器307;
第三GPS滤波器308用于对其中另一路GPS卫星子信号进行滤波处理,将滤波处理后的GPS卫星子信号发送至无人机的定位模块309。
需要说明的是,GPS低噪放大器304用于将第一GPS滤波器303发送的微弱的GPS卫星信号放大。由于第二GPS滤波器306和第三GPS滤波器308接收的是放大后的GPS卫星信号,因而对第二GPS滤波器306和第三GPS滤波器308的插入损耗不作要求,要求第二GPS滤波器306和第三GPS滤波器308对1.57GHz以外的信号(特别是2.4GHz和5.8GHz的信号)抑制度大于40db。
进一步地,装置还包括:第一运行状态滤波器316、第二运行状态滤波器318、运行状态合路器315、无人机运行状态数据功率放大器314和发送滤波器313;
第一运行状态滤波器316用于接收无人机的飞行数据模块317发送的无人机飞行数 据;
第二运行状态滤波器318接收无人机的图像数据模块319发送的无人机采集的图像数据;
其中,无人机飞行数据和图像数据是在无人机的控制器的控制下以时域复用的方式分别发送至第一运行状态滤波器316和第二运行状态滤波器318的;
运行状态合路器315对无人机飞行数据和无人机采集的图像数据进行合并,生成无人机运行状态数据;
发送滤波器313用于接收经无人机运行状态数据功率放大器314处理后的无人机运行状态数据;
第一功分器302还用于从发送滤波器313接收无人机运行状态数据。
在实际应用中,飞行数据模块317和图像数据模块319的工作频段均为5.8GHz,为了避免无人机运行状态数据失真,无人机的控制器的飞行数据模块317和图像数据模块319以时域复用的方式将各自采集的数据分别发送至第一运行状态滤波器316和第二运行状态滤波器318。举例来说,无人机飞行数据的数据量较小,无人机采集的图像数据的数据量较大,可在1s的时间内50ms发送无人机飞行数据,950ms发送无人机采集的图像数据。
在实际应用中,无人机运行状态数据功率放大器314的增益大于10db。对第一运行状态滤波器316、第二运行状态滤波器318和发送滤波器313的插入损耗不作要求,要求对5.8GHz以外的信号(特别是1.57GHz和2.4GHz的信号)抑制度大于40db。
综上所述,根据本发明的技术方案,在无人机上设置宽频天线,通过宽频天线接收所有外部信号,结合第一功分器,将接收到的外部信号分成多路子信号,并将各路子信号分别发送至对应无人机上各个功能模块的接收滤波器,供各个接收滤波器对接收到的子信号进行滤波处理,并发送至相应的功能模块,供各个功能模块使用。相比于现有技术,本发明采用一根宽频天线替代现有的多根天线,实现所有外部信号的接收,并通过第一功分器和多个接收滤波器的处理将无人机所需的各种信号发送至对应的功能模块,大大减轻了无人机的重量,提高了无人机的续航时间。
