Embodiment 1

[0042] Embodiment 1: as figure 1 , UAV obstacle avoidance control system based on columnar space planning constraints, with UAV subsystem 1 and ground station subsystem 2; UAV subsystem 1 includes embedded flight controller 3 and airborne terminal 4 of wireless data link , the embedded flight controller 3 has a built-in satellite positioning receiver 7 and a height sensor 8; the ground station subsystem 2 includes an embedded monitoring computer 5 and a ground terminal 6 of a wireless data link, and the embedded monitoring computer 5 has a built-in monitoring system that contains geographic information of obstacles electronically Figure 9 The embedded flight controller 3 is connected with the airborne terminal 4 of the wireless data link by a serial bus, the embedded monitoring computer 5 is connected with the ground terminal 6 of the wireless data link by a serial bus, and the airborne terminal 4 of the wireless data link is connected with the wireless data link The ground ...

Embodiment 2

[0051] Embodiment 2: as Figure 4 As shown, for an obstacle with an arc-shaped boundary, the two-dimensional geographical boundary of the obstacle is surrounded by N straight line segments to form a closed boundary contour line 14, the method is as follows:

[0052] ① The operator operates on the built-in two-dimensional Figure 9 Manual operation above, for a straight line boundary, directly take the straight line segment corresponding to the boundary;

[0053] ② For the convex arc boundary, select multiple feature points on the arc boundary including the start and end points of the arc boundary. The number of points and positions are selected by the ground operator according to the size of the arc. 3. The positions are evenly distributed, and the larger the arc, the more points; this embodiment takes 5 feature points, that is, X 1 ~X 5 ; Make an arc tangent line along each feature point, two adjacent tangent lines intersect to form an intersection point, and obtain multip...

Embodiment 3

[0057] Embodiment 3: as Figure 5 As shown, for a circular obstacle, the obstacle avoidance boundary is set for the outer boundary and inner boundary of the circular obstacle respectively. Figure 5 Among them, 10 is an obstacle, 15 is the contour line of the inner boundary, and 16 is the contour line of the outer boundary, and the setting method of the obstacle avoidance boundary 19 of the outer boundary is the same as that of Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, among which V 1 ~V 16 is the vertex.

[0058] The method of determining the obstacle avoidance boundary of the inner boundary is as follows: for a straight line boundary, directly take the straight line segment corresponding to the boundary; for a convex arc boundary, select multiple The feature points, points and positions are selected by the ground operator according to the arc size. In general, the points are ≥ 3, and the positions are evenly distributed, and the larger the arc, the more points; this embodiment takes ...

Abstract

The invention discloses an unmanned aerial vehicle obstacle avoidance controlling method. An unmanned aerial vehicle subsystem and a ground station subsystem are arranged, the unmanned aerial vehicle subsystem comprises an embedded flight controller and an airborne terminal of a wireless data chain, a satellite positioning receiver and a height sensor are arranged in the embedded flight controller, the ground subsystem comprises an embedded monitoring computer and a ground terminal of the wireless data chain, and an electronic map containing geographic information of obstacles is arranged in the embedded monitoring computer. On the electronic map in the embedded monitoring computer of the ground station subsystem, the geographic information of the obstacles in a flight area is determined, virtual obstacle polygonal cylinders are established, shape data of the virtual obstacle polygonal cylinders are downloaded in the embedded flight controller which obtains the current position of the unmanned aerial vehicle and calculates space correlation between the unmanned aerial vehicle and the obstacle polygonal cylinders, track-shifting instruction of the unmanned aerial vehicle is generated, and automatic obstacle avoidance of the unmanned aerial vehicle is realized.
