具体实施方式
下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本发明一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。
需要说明的是,当一个组件被认为是“连接”另一个组件,它可以是直接连接到另一个组件或者可能同时存在居中组件。当一个组件从另外一个组件“获取”数据时,这里的获取可以是一个组件从所述另外一个组件直接通信以获取数据,也可能是一个组件通过其他的组件从所述另外一个组件获取数据。
除非另有定义,本文所使用的所有的技术和科学术语与属于本发明的技术领域的技术人员通常理解的含义相同。本文中在本发明的说明书中所使用的术语只是为了描述具体的实施例的目的,不是旨在限制本发明。本文所使用的术语“及/或”包括一个或多个相关的所列项目的任意的和所有的组合。
下面结合附图,对本发明的一些实施方式作详细说明。在不冲突的情况下,下述的实施例及实施例中的特征可以相互组合。
无人机在飞行过程中,由于环境因素(例如电磁干扰、障碍物的遮挡)或者与控制终端之间的距离过大,可能导致无人机与控制终端断开连接的现象,此时,无人机会进入返航模式,向预设的返航点返航。在某些情况中,无人机检测到剩余电量不足或者接收到用户通过控制终端发送的返航指令时,无人机会进入返航模式,向预设的返航点返航。
然而,在某些情况中,处于返航模式的无人机可能由于电量、导航精度、飞行控制精度等问题的限制无法安全地返航到返航点。例如,无人机可能在一个地理条件比较恶劣的地方起飞,比如,无人机在一个田埂或者沙滩起飞,无人机将田埂或者沙滩作为返航点记录,当无人机进入返航模式时,当前无人机的导航精度可能较差(例如无人机上配置的RTK设备接收到的RTK数据无效导致RTK设备不能完成定位,或者GPS定位接收机接收到少于4个卫星的卫星信号)或者飞行控制精度可能较差(例如当前环境中的风速较大导航无人机不能实现高精度的飞行控制),这样无人机在降落至返航点时可能会产生较大的降落偏差,这样无人机可能在返航时可能由于降落偏差降落到田埂旁边的水田中或者沙滩旁边的水中。再例如,在某些情况中,当无人机进入返航模式时,无人机与返航点之间的距离较远,当前无人机的剩余电量不足以支持无人机飞行至返航点,无人机可能会在返航的过程中发生坠落。
针对上述问题,本发明实施例提供一种无人机返航控制的方法及装置,以提高无人机返航的灵活性和可靠性,保证无人机的飞行安全。

可选地,所述获取返航评估信息包括获取控制终端发送的控制指令,所述当返航评估信息满足预设要求时,控制无人机向备降区返航,否则,控制无人机向返航点返航包括:当所述控制指令为备降区指示指令时,控制无人机向备降区返航,否则,控制无人机向返航点返航。
具体地,在无人机进入返航模式时,用户可以通过控制终端为无人机选择返航方式,控制终端检测用户的返航模式选择操作确定控制指令,并将所述控制指令发送给返航控制装置,返航控制装置接收用户通过控制终端发送的控制指令,其中,所述控制指令可以包括备降区指示指令和返航点指示指令。所述备降区指示指令可以为指示无人机向备降区返航的指令, 在某些实施例中,所述备降区指示指令包含备降区的标识信息,在某些情况中,所述备降区指示指令包含备降区的位置信息;所述返航点指示指令可以为指示无人机向返航点返航的指令,在某些实施例中,所述返航点指示指令包含返航点的标识信息,在某些情况中,返航点指示指令包含返航点的位置信息。

可选地,所述获取返航评估信息包括获取无人机的剩余电量,所述当返航评估信息满足预设要求时,控制无人机向备降区返航,否则,控制无人机向返航点返航包括:当所述剩余电量小于或等于预设电量阈值时,控制无人机向备降区返航,否则,控制无人机向返航点返航。
具体地,所述评估信息可以包括无人机的剩余电量,返航控制装置可以将无人机的剩余电量和预设电量阈值进行比较,并根据所述比较结果来确定无人机的返航方式,当所述剩余电量小于或等于预设电量阈值时,控制无人机向备降区返航,否则,控制无人机向返航点返航。
进一步可选地,所述预设电量阈值是根据无人机从当前位置飞行到返航点所需的电量确定的。具体地,返航控制装置可以实时地确定无人机从当前位置飞行到返航点所需的电量,并根据无人机从当前位置飞行到返航点所需的电量设置预设电量阈值,例如,可以设置预设电量阈值等于从当前位置飞行到返航点所需的电量,或者设置预设电量阈值等于从当前位置飞行到返航点所需的电量的1.1倍或1.2倍。当返航控制装置确定所述无人机的剩余电量小于或等于预设电量阈值时,无人机的剩余电量可能不足以成功地返航到返航点,此时,不可以再尝试向返航点返航,直接控制无人机向备降区返航。当返航控制装置确定所述无人机剩余电量大于预设电量阈值时,控制无人机向返航点返航。
进一步可选地,所述预设电量阈值是根据无人机从当前位置飞行到备降区所需的电量确定的。具体地,返航控制装置可以实时地确定无人机从 当前位置飞行到备降区所需的电量,并根据无人机从当前位置飞行到备降区所需的电量设置预设电量阈值,例如,可以设置预设电量阈值等于从当前位置飞行到备降区所需的电量,或者设置预设电量阈值等于从当前位置飞行到返航点所需的电量的1.2倍或1.3倍。当返航控制装置确定所述无人机剩余电量小于或等于预设电量阈值时,即确定当前无人机的剩余电量仅够安全返航到备降区,如果继续控制无人机向返航点返航,无人机的剩余电量可能不足以支持无人机成功地返航到备降区。因此,当返航控制装置确定所述无人机剩余电量小于或等于预设电量阈值时,控制无人机向备降区返航。当返航控制装置确定所述无人机剩余电量大于预设电量阈值时,控制无人机向返航点返航。

具体地,如图4所示,当无人机进入返航模式后,返航控制装置可以确定无人当前的剩余电量是否小于或等于预设电量阈值,其中,所述预设电量阈值是根据无人机从当前位置飞行到备降区所需的电量确定的,当剩余电量大于预设电量阈值时,控制无人机向返航点返航,否则,控制无人机向备降区返航。无人机的返航过程可以包括巡航阶段和巡航阶段,在无人机向返航点返航的过程的巡航阶段中,返航控制装置可以按照预设的飞行高度控制策略控制无人机飞行至返航点上,所述飞行高度控制策略可以是先控制无人机爬升至一个预设高度,在所述预设高度上飞行。当无人机飞行至返航点上方时,返航过程进入降落阶段,返航控制装置可以检测无人机当前的导航精度,确定无人机当前的导航精度是否大于预设的导航精度阈值,例如,确定无人机的RTK设备接收到的RTK数据是否有效,当所述RTK数据有效时,说明RTK设备可以精准地导航,即确定当前的导航精度大于预设的导航精度阈值;当所述RTK数据无效时,说明RTK设备可以不能精准地导航,即确定当前的导航精度小于预设的导航精度阈值。若当前的导航精度大于预设的导航精度阈值时,即便返航点的地理环境恶劣,由于导航精度足够高,无人机依然可以安全地向返航点降落,因此, 若当前的导航精度大于预设的导航精度阈值时,控制无人机向返航点降落。若当前的导航精度小于或等于预设的导航精度阈值时,在某些实施例中,返航控制装置控制无人机悬停,在某些实施例中,返航控制装置可以控制无人机向备降区返航。
进一步可选地,在悬停的过程中,若确定当前的导航精度大于预设的导航精度阈值时,控制无人机向返航点降落,若确定当前的剩余电量小于或等于预设电量阈值时,控制无人机向备降区返航。具体地,继续参考图4,无人机在悬停的过程中,返航控制装置可以继续确定当前的导航精度是否大于预设的导航精度阈值,若确定当前的导航精度大于预设的导航精度阈值时,控制无人机向返航点降落,若确定当前的导航精度小于或等于预设的导航精度阈值时,控制无人机继续悬停。无人机在悬停的过程中,无人机的电量会持续消耗,返航控制装置可以实时地确定无人机当前的剩余电量确定当前的剩余电量是否小于或等于预设电量阈值,若确定当前的剩余电量小于或等于预设电量阈值,当前无人机的剩余电量仅够安全返航到备降区,如果继续尝试控制无人机向返航点返航,无人机的剩余电量可能不足以支持无人机成功地返航到备降区,因此,返航控制装置控制无人机向备降区返航,若确定当前的剩余电量大于预设电量阈值,控制无人机继续悬停。
进一步可选地,所述若确定当前的导航精度大于预设的导航精度阈值时,控制无人机向返航点降落包括:若确定当前的导航精度大于预设的导航精度阈值且当前的飞行控制精度大于预设飞行控制精度阈值时,控制无人机向返航点降落。具体地,若确定当前的导航精度大于预设的导航精度阈值时,返航控制装置可以进一步获取无人机当前的飞行控制精度,当确定飞行控制精度大于预设的飞行控制精度阈值时,说明无人机可以实现精准导航同时可以精准地控制飞行动作,此时,返航控制装置可以控制无人机向返航点降落。当确定所述飞行控制精度小于或等于预设的飞行控制精度阈值时,返航控制装置可以控制无人机悬停或者控制无人机向备降区返航。可以理解的是,控制无人机悬停的过程中,返航控制装置可以执行如上所述的操作,直至无人机降落至返航点,返航成功为止。
可选地,所述控制无人机向返航点降落包括:按照飞行高度控制策略 控制无人机飞行至返航点上方;若当前的飞行控制精度大于预设的飞行控制精度阈值时,控制无人机向返航点降落,否则控制无人机悬停或者控制无人机向备降区返航。
具体地,如前所述,无人机的返航过程可以包括巡航阶段和巡航阶段,返航控制装置在控制无人机向返航点返航的过程的巡航阶段中,可以按照预设的飞行高度控制策略控制无人机飞行至返航点上,所述飞行高度控制策略可以是先控制无人机爬升至一个预设高度,在所述预设高度上飞行。当无人机飞行至返航点上方时,返航控制装置可以检测无人机当前的飞行控制精度,确定无人机当前的飞行控制精度是否大于预设的飞行控制精度阈值,说明无人机可以精准地控制飞行动作,即便返航点的地理环境恶劣,无人机依然可以安全地向返航点降落,因此,若当前的飞行控制精度大于预设的飞行控制精度阈值时,控制无人机向返航点降落。若当前的飞行控制精度小于或等于预设的飞行控制精度阈值时,在某些实施例中,返航控制装置控制无人机悬停,在某些实施例中,返航控制装置可以控制无人机向备降区返航。
