具体实施方式
为了使本发明的目的、技术方案及优点更加清楚明白,以下结合附图及实施例,对本发明进行进一步详细说明。应当理解,此处所描述的具体实施例仅用以解释本发明,并不用于限定本发明。
需要说明的是,如果不冲突,本发明实施例中的各个特征可以相互组合,均在本发明的保护范围之内。另外,虽然在装置示意图中进行了功能模块的划分,在流程图中示出了逻辑顺序,但是在某些情况下,可以以不同于装置示意图中的模块划分,或流程图中的顺序执行所示出或描述的步骤。
本发明实施例提供的无人机安全保护方法和装置,可以应用于各种不同类型的无人机。通常无人机通过下视超声雷达来感知地面,在无人机起飞、降落以及正常飞行时,无人机通过自身安装的超声雷达来检测飞机距离地面的高度,如果超声雷达出现问题,将影响飞机的起飞、降落以及正常飞行等。因此, 本发明实施例的核心在于根据无人机的超声情况,包括超声正常和超声不正常,以及无人机当前具体的飞行状态来对所述无人机实施不同的安全保护。由此,提高无人机的安全性,以及对无人机进行安全保护的灵活性。
请参阅图1,图1是本发明实施例提供的一种无人机安全保护方法的流程图,该方法应用于无人机,具体由无人机的飞行控制器来执行,该方法包括:
步骤11、获取无人机的超声信息和飞行状态。
其中,所述超声信息指的是所述无人机的超声雷达检测到的信息,其具体包括超声测量高度、超声返回飞控的时间戳序列等。所述超声测量高度指的是通过超声检测出的所述无人机距离地面的高度。所述超声返回飞控的时间戳序列指的是所述超声数据所对应的时间节点序列,每一超声数据对应一时间节点,其用于表示所述超声测量高度是在什么时间被测量的。例如,时间戳包括:0.1秒、0.2秒、0.3秒;超声测量高度包括:0.5米、0.6米、0.9米;其中,所述无人机向飞控发送所述超声测量高度0.5米时附带时间戳0.1秒,表示0.1秒时所检测的超声测量高度为0.5米;发送所述超声测量高度0.6米时附带时间戳0.2秒,表示0.2秒时所检测的超声测量高度为0.6米;发送所述超声测量高度0.9米时附带时间戳0.3秒,表示0.3秒时所检测的超声测量高度为0.9米。由此,飞控能够获取在什么时间检测的超声测量高度是多少。
其中,所述飞行状态指的是所述无人机的飞行状态,所述飞行状态包括下降状态、正常飞行状态、起飞状态等。所述正常飞行状态可以包括加速飞行、减速飞行等。
步骤12、根据所述超声信息和所述飞行状态对所述无人机进行安全保护。
在本实施例中,主要是基于所述无人机的超声情况,包括超声正常和超声不正常,以及无人机为正常飞行状态或者下降状态时,来对所述无人机实施不同的安全保护方法,由此,提高了飞机的安全性,以及飞机安全保护的灵活性。
下面分别从无人机为正常飞行状态和下降状态这两种飞行状态来对所述无人机的安全保护方法进行具体阐述。
如图2所示,当所述无人机的飞行状态为正常飞行状态时,所述根据所述超声信息和所述飞行状态对所述无人机进行安全保护,包括:
步骤101、判断所述超声信息是否有效。
判断超声信息是否有效也即判断无人机的超声是否出现异常,具体地,如图3所示,所述判断所述超声信息是否有效,包括:
步骤1011、获取所述无人机的融合高度;
所述融合高度又称飞行高度,其指的是所述无人机距离起飞点的高度,所述融合高度通过各种传感器检测得到。所述传感器包括气压高度计、加速度计、超声传感器、雷达传感器等等。
步骤1012、根据所述融合高度和所述超声信息获取超声可信度检测结果,并且根据所述超声信息获取超声更新检测结果;
所述超声可信度检测结果用于确定所述无人机的超声输出的数值是否可 用,在本实施例中,可以通过数字信号表示所述超声可信度检测结果,比如,当所述超声可信度检测结果为“1”时,说明所述超声输出的数值可用,当所述超声可信度检测结果为“0”时,说明所述超声输出的数值不可用。
所述超声更新检测结果用于识别所述无人机的超声数据是否还在正常更新。在本实施例中,所述超声数据经过更新检测模块,更新检测模块根据所述超声数据获取超声更新检测结果,也可以通过数字信号表示所述超声更新检测结果,比如,当所述超声更新检测结果为“1”时,说明所述超声数据在正常的更新,当所述超声更新检测结果为“0”时,说明所述超声数据不在正常的更新。
在本实施例中,根据所述融合高度和所述超声信息获取超声可信度检测结果包括:根据所述超声信息获取超声测量高度,将所述超声测量高度和所述融合高度分别进行求导,输出所述超声测量高度的微分信息和所述融合高度的微分信息;对所述超声测量高度的微分信息和所述融合高度的微分信息分别进行滤波,以获取滤波后的所述超声测量高度的微分信息和所述融合高度的微分信息;根据所述超声测量高度的微分信息和所述融合高度的微分信息获取所述超声可信度检测结果。
由于飞机在下降时,超声所检测出的超声测量高度和所述融合高度可能不相等,但其各自的一节微分所表征飞机的上升下降速度应当较为接近,因此,将所述一节微分所表征的飞机的上升下降速度作为一个判断依据,通过对所述超声测量高度进行求导,以输出所述超声测量高度的微分信息,对所述融合高度进行求导,以输出所述融合高度的微分信息,通过比较这两个微分信息之间的差异,从而确定超声输出的值是否可用。
其中,所述滤波器具体可以是微分滤波器,由于工程中的信号一般含有噪声,通过所述滤波器过滤所述噪声,以更准确的获取所述超声测量高度和所述融合高度的近似导数。
其中,所述根据所述超声测量高度的微分信息和所述融合高度的微分信息获取所述超声可信度检测结果具体包括:将所述超声测量高度的微分信息和所述融合高度的微分信息进行差异比较,当所述差异比较的结果在预设范围内时,输出所述超声可信度检测结果可信,当所述差异比较的结果不在预设范围内时,输出所述超声可信度检测结果不可信。
其中,所述超声测量高度的微分信息和所述融合高度的微分信息可以相同,也可以存在差异,两者微分相同或者两者微分之间的差异在所述预设范围内时,则所述超声可信度检测结果可信,即说明超声输出的数值是可用的,否则所述超声可信度检测结果不可信,超声输出的数值不可用。所述预设范围可以人工自定义,也可以由系统设置。
在本实施例中,根据所述超声信息获取超声更新检测结果包括:根据所述超声信息进行时间戳更新检测、超声值变化检测以及超声值异常检测,以获取时间戳更新检测结果、超声值变化检测结果以及超声值异常检测结果;将所述 时间戳更新检测结果、所述超声值变化检测结果以及所述超声值异常检测结果进行逻辑运算,从而获取所述超声更新检测结果。
