Embodiment 1

[0011] Embodiment 1: a method for processing radar signals of a radar altimeter system of a plant-protected rotor UAV, comprising the following steps:

[0012] S1. AD data collection;

[0013] The AD data collection is digitized through AD sampling, the number of data points N collected by AD, after removing part of the data, the number of remaining points is N_s.

[0014] S2. To direct current, this step is an optional step;

[0015] (1) Calculate the mean value I_mean and Q_mean of the respective N_s data of the I road and the Q road respectively;

[0016]

[0017] (2) wherein I is the time-domain data of the I road, Q is the time-domain data of the Q road, I_mean is the mean value of the I road, and Q_mean is the mean value of the Q road;

[0018] (3) each data of the I road and the Q road is subtracted from the mean value of each road;

[0019] (4) The calculation formula of IQ data to DC is: Wherein, I' is the data after removing the direct current, and Q' is ...

Embodiment 2

[0050] Embodiment 2: The patent application with the application publication number CN104678397A discloses an ultrasonic altimeter for small unmanned aerial vehicles, which uses an ultrasonic method to measure the height from the ground when the unmanned aerial vehicle is close to the ground, so as to realize the autonomy of the unmanned aerial vehicle Takeoff and landing function, but the ultrasonic altimeter described in the patent has a maximum range of 11m, which is far from enough for plant protection drones to spray pesticides. Therefore, in order to improve the ranging range of the UAV altimeter between 30 and 40m and ensure the ranging accuracy of about 0.2m, a UAV altimeter based on millimeter-wave radar was invented. Moreover, compared with other detection methods, millimeter-wave radar also has the advantages of stable detection performance, good environmental adaptation, small size, low price, and can be used in relatively severe rainy and snowy weather.

Embodiment 3

[0105] Embodiment 3: From the technical solutions in the above two embodiments, it can be found that in the technical solutions disclosed in these two embodiments, a peak tracking method of the height signal of the drone is also included. The tracking method is sorted out. Obviously, the tracking method in this embodiment can be supported by the above two embodiments. However, it is a peak tracking method that can be independently applied to the height signal of the drone. , not limited to the technical solutions in the above two embodiments, the tracking method has: the step of tracking the peak point crossing the threshold; and the step of tracking the distance.

[0106] Wherein: the described method of crossing the threshold peak point tracking is:

[0107] Set a peak point threshold factor α, which is used to limit the absolute value of the difference between the detected maximum peak point crossing the threshold and the maximum peak point that appeared in the previous cyc...

Abstract

The peak tracking method of the height signal of the drone belongs to the field of radar, and solves the problem of the stability of the calculation of the radar height of the plant protection rotor drone. The technical points are: including the step of tracking the threshold peak point; and the step of distance tracking. The effect is: improved stability and real-time performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of radar, and relates to a peak tracking method of an unmanned aerial vehicle height signal. Background technique [0002] Plant protection UAV, as the name suggests, is an unmanned aircraft used for agricultural and forestry plant protection operations. This type of unmanned aircraft consists of three parts: a flight platform (fixed wing, single rotor, multi-rotor), GPS flight control, and spraying mechanism. Remote control or GPS flight control to realize the spraying operation, which can spray chemicals, seeds, powder, etc. [0003] Compared with traditional plant protection operations, drone plant protection operations have the characteristics of precise operations, high efficiency and environmental protection, intelligence, and simple operation, saving farmers the cost of large machinery and a lot of manpower. The plant protection UAV has the characteristics of low operating height, less drift, and can hover in ...
