Control method and system for intelligent unmanned aerial vehicle patrol for power line

Abstract

The invention discloses a control method and system for intelligent unmanned aerial vehicle patrol for a power line. The method includes the steps that after receiving an instruction, input by a user, of starting unmanned aerial vehicle operation, an unmanned aerial vehicle base server transmits the instruction of starting unmanned aerial vehicle operation to a hangar and an unmanned aerial vehicle; the hangar responds to the instruction of starting unmanned aerial vehicle operation, and a hangar door is opened; the unmanned aerial vehicle responds to the instruction of starting unmanned aerial vehicle operation, flies out of the hangar, determines the position of the unmanned aerial vehicle relative to a tower to be patrolled through a beacon and transmits shot visible images and infrared images of the portion to be patrolled to the unmanned aerial vehicle base server through the hangar; the unmanned aerial vehicle base server analyzes the visible images and infrared images of the portion to be patrolled to determine suspected defect points and transmits the suspected defect points and position information of the suspected defect points to a mobile terminal bound in advance. According to the technical scheme, the power line in a region poor in natural condition can be patrolled normally, and safety maintenance can be conducted on the power line better.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of electronic technology, in particular to a method and system for intelligent inspection and control of power line unmanned aerial vehicles. Background technique [0002] In the current technology, drones and humans cooperate to inspect transmission lines. The specific method is as follows: the inspectors take the multi-rotor UAV to the target tower position by car, and use the multi-rotor UAV and its task load to guide and ground wires (optical cables), insulators, hardware, towers, and infrastructure of the transmission line. Take pictures of external visible abnormal conditions or defects such as auxiliary facilities and passage corridors. After the drone lands, the photos in the memory card will be manually entered into the computer, and the photos will be viewed and analyzed by professional technicians. And wire all-round fine inspection. [0003] However, the complex geographical environment of my country's p...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, the geographical environment of my country's power line corridors is complex, which brings many difficulties to the work of UAV line inspection.

Especially for power line inspection work where power lines pass through forest edge areas, high altitudes, ice and snow-covered areas, geological disaster areas, and natural weather disaster areas, inspection personnel need to carry drones and their mounts, multiple batteries, simple Maintenance tools, etc. have to climb mountains and mountains in the harsh external environment to reach the vicinity of the target line, which brings safety hazards to inspection personnel and equipment. a major problem

[0004] It can be seen that the current method of drone and manual inspection of power lines is affected by human factors and natural environmental factors, and the coverage area of ​​inspection work is limited, that is, it is difficult to inspect power lines in areas with poor natural conditions. Implement inspection work, which is not conducive to the safe maintenance of power lines
