Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the existing UAV flight test and wind field acquisition methods, it is impossible to use the measured wind field information in real time. Generally, the data recorded after the experiment is used to estimate the UAV wind field.
This method loses timeliness and is more complicated, and the application effect is not good

Abstract

The invention relates to a lateral wind field estimation method based on an inclination angle of a rotor unmanned aerial vehicle. When being in a wind field environment, a quadrotor aircraft needs tokeep an inclination angle to realize hovering at a specified position, so that the component of the lift force in a lateral direction counteracts the influence of the wind resistance. And thus lateralwind disturbance information of the wind farm environment in which the aircraft is located in the hovering state is estimated according to a function relationship, obtained by pre calibration, between the inclination angle of the quadrotor aircraft and the s lateral wind disturbance. According to the invention, the method is based on existing sensing data of standard autopilots like a gyroscope,a GPS receiver, and an accelerometer; and no extra weather measuring devices like a wind speed measuring instrument are needed. Online wind field measurement is realized rapidly and accurately; and the technical support is provided for activities like the aerospace and forest fire prevention.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lateral wind field estimation method based on the inclination angle of a four-rotor UAV, which can provide technical support for aerospace, forest fire prevention and other activities, and belongs to the field of atmospheric science and technology. Background technique [0002] In terms of wind field measurement, the real atmospheric wind field information changes with time and space. In order to obtain complete spatio-temporal regional wind field information, widely used wind field measurement methods include: anemometer wind measurement, balloon wind measurement, wind profile radar wind measurement and other methods. In the engineering application of large-scale and real-time wind measurement, the disadvantages of the above-mentioned traditional land-based wind measurement equipment, such as high cost and platform dependence, are reflected. However, the speed of marketization of rotorcraft in UAVs is accelerating, and it h...
