UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) endurance method and system for pasture

Abstract

The invention provides an UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) endurance method and system for a pasture. The method comprises the steps: obtaining target pasture information, along-the-way path informationand position information of charging base stations distributed on a target pasture and an along-the-way path based on unmanned aerial vehicle grazing; acquiring flight position information of the UAV,and generating prompt information that the UAV is close to a charging base station according to the flight position information of the UAV and the position information of the charging base station; after the UAV receives the prompt information, enabling the UAV to judge the residual electric quantity of the UAV and sending residual electric quantity information; and determining whether the UAV flies to the charging base station for charging or not according to the residual electric quantity information. According to the embodiment of the invention, according to the position information of thecharging base station in the pasture and the geographic form of the pasture, the flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle is set, and the unmanned aerial vehicle can select an appropriate chargingbase station according to the stored position information of the charging base station and the flight path and charge the charging base station to achieve the purpose of monitoring the pasture in realtime for a long time.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle application, and particularly relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle ranch endurance method and system. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology, the technology of unmanned aerial vehicles continues to develop, and the application fields of unmanned aerial vehicles are becoming wider and wider. They are mainly used in aerial photography, disaster relief, agriculture, investigation, environmental monitoring and other fields. The grazing method of drones to monitor pastures has gradually entered the application of pasture management. On the other hand, with the continuous maturity of related technologies for multi-rotor drones, this kind of civil aircraft with simple structure, low cost and convenient control has entered the pasture management. , Its main advantage is that it can take off and land vertically, has low site requirements and high safety.

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the existing battery technology and the flight principle of multi-rotor UAVs determine that the battery life of multi-rotor UAVs is generally only two to three hours, which cannot meet the needs of grazing for more than ten hours at a time.
