Embodiment 1

[0063] figure 1 A flowchart showing a method for charging a drone provided by an embodiment of the present invention, such as figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0064] Step S11, when the remaining power of the UAV is less than the preset value, send a charging reservation request, the charging reservation request includes the battery power information of the UAV and the current location information of the UAV, and the UAV The battery power information of the man-machine includes the total battery power of the drone.

[0065] Specifically, the UAV can be set to detect the remaining power in the battery in real time or after a preset time, and detect the remaining power in the battery when the remaining power is less than the preset value. The machine charging pile sends a charging reservation request to indicate that the UAV needs to be charged. The charging reservation request includes the UAV’s identification ID, the UAV’s battery power information and the UAV’s curr...

Embodiment 2

[0071] figure 2 A flowchart showing a method for charging a drone provided by another embodiment of the present invention, such as figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0072] Step S21, the UAV charging pile receives the charging reservation request sent by the UAV, the charging reservation request includes the battery power information of the UAV and the current location information of the UAV, and the UAV’s The battery power information includes the total power of the drone battery;

[0073] Step S22, the UAV charging pile obtains the reservation permission information and the battery power of the charging pile, and calculates the available power of the charging pile based on the reservation permission information and the battery power of the charging pile. When the total power of the battery of the drone is stated, the appointment pass information is generated;

[0074] Wherein, the reservation permission information includes the current battery capacity of the res...

Embodiment 5

[0109] Figure 5 A flowchart showing a method for charging a drone provided by another embodiment of the present invention, in image 3 neutralize figure 2 Steps with the same reference numbers are the same as figure 2 The same text descriptions are applicable and will not be repeated here.

[0110] Such as Figure 5 As shown, in the drone charging method provided in this embodiment, in step S123, based on the reply charging time, select the charging pile of the drone that satisfies that the charging flight distance is less than or equal to the remaining flight distance. Target drone charging points can include:

[0111] S1231. Calculate the expected arrival time of the drone according to the current operating speed of the drone and the charging flight distance;

[0112] S1232. Select the target drone charging pile from the drone charging piles that meet the expected arrival time and do not exceed the reply charging time.

[0113] Specifically, the UAV calculates the e...

Abstract

The invention relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle charging method and device. The method includes the steps that when residual capacity of an unmanned aerial vehicle is smaller than a preset value, a charging reservation request is sent, wherein the charging reservation request includes storage battery electric quantity information of the unmanned aerial vehicle and current position information of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and the storage battery electric quantity information of the unmanned aerial vehicle includes storage battery total electric quantity of the unmanned aerial vehicle; reservation passing information sent by unmanned aerial vehicle charging piles is received, and a target unmanned aerial vehicle charging pile is selected according to the reservation passing information, wherein the reservation passing information includes position information of the unmanned aerial vehicle charging piles and reservation response charging time; according to the position information of the unmanned aerial vehicle charging piles, the unmanned aerial vehicle arrives at the position of the target unmanned aerial vehicle charging pile and is charged in a wireless mode. Wireless charging of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be achieved, and cruising ability of a battery is improved. Waiting time is avoided by means of the reservation mode, and charging time is saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a method and device for charging an unmanned aerial vehicle. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of science and technology, drones, as a new type of aircraft, are becoming more and more civilian. More and more young people are using portable drones with wider shooting angles instead of handheld cameras or selfie sticks when shooting videos and photos. [0003] In the prior art, in order to ensure the portable control of civilian drones, the battery size of portable drones is limited, and the battery life is short, usually only about 20 minutes. [0004] In this case, it is necessary to prepare multiple drone batteries at the same time and control the landing of the portable drone after a period of time to replace the batteries. The operation process is cumbersome and the cost is high. [0005] The information disclosed in this Background section is o...
