Networking method based on unmanned aerial vehicle cluster

Abstract

The invention provides a networking method based on an unmanned aerial vehicle cluster. The networking method comprises unmanned aerial vehicles and routing relay nodes composed of the unmanned aerialvehicles, and the networking method comprises the following steps: planning a to-be-networked area within an activity range of the unmanned aerial vehicles according to a task, dividing the to-be-networked area into a plurality of subareas according to the wireless network coverage capability of each routing relay node composed of the unmanned aerial vehicles, selecting optimal hovering positionsof the unmanned aerial vehicles within each subarea, controlling the unmanned aerial vehicles to arrive at the hovering positions, forming a cascaded network communication routing system among the hovering unmanned aerial vehicles, allowing the access of a ground device, and completing the bidirectional data transmission with the ground device. By adoption of the networking method provided by theinvention, the conventional network communication of the ground device <---> unmanned aerial vehicles <---> a ground station central control unit <---> a public network is achieved, so that the real-time requirements similar to onsite rescue dispatching are met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of multi-axis aircraft applications, in particular to a networking method based on unmanned aerial vehicle clusters. Background technique [0002] With the widespread use of drones, due to their high flexibility / programmability and other characteristics, they have been used by ordinary individual players, such as photography hobbies, competitions, etc., to some extreme scenarios: such as military, police Wait. [0003] In some existing post-disaster reconstruction sites, often due to the damage of communication links, the internal conditions cannot be effectively communicated with the outside, which makes the progress of the rescue mission slow. [0004] Building a professional network system involves a lot of work: professional routing equipment / network access equipment / power supply system / wiring, etc., which are difficult to put in place immediately for emergency needs like post-disaster reconstruction. ...
