Problems solved by technology

The disadvantage of this algorithm is that it may take a long time to sample to ensure that a feasible trajectory is found, which reduces the real-time performance of the algorithm, and at the same time, the amount of calculation is too large
However, the current research direction has hardly conducted in-depth research on the motion planning problem of UAVs in this scenario.
For coverage motion planning, the current research basically refers to path planning, and there is no relevant in-depth research on how to give the motion trajectory of time parameters according to the path
And in the coverage process, the flight stability of the UAV is not taken into consideration, which is not suitable for road and bridge inspection tasks that require high imaging quality

[0105] Specific embodiment two: the difference between this embodiment and specific embodiment one is: decomposing the bridge deck topology described in step two and adopting a bow-shaped covering path for each covering unit. The specific process is as follows:

[0106] Considering a rectangular bridge deck, the middle part becomes an obstacle on the 2D plane due to the connection of piers, such as Figure 4 shown. Let the length of the bridge deck be l b , then the straight line cluster {x m =x mi |x mi ∈[0,l b ]} Slice scan the bridge deck. When the number of segments of the straight line changes, record the point of the corresponding obstacle space and use it as the vertex. Such as Figure 4 As shown, at the vertex V 1 ,V 2When between, the segment number of the straight line inside the bridge deck is 1; at the vertex V 2 ,V 3 When between, the number of straight line segments inside the bridge deck is 2; at the vertex V 3 ,V 4 When between, the number of strai...

[0116] Let the vertex set of the bridge deck V={v 1 ,v 2 ,…}, the set of edges of the bridge deck E={E 1 ,E 2 ,...}. The connectivity matrix defining the edges and vertices of the bridge deck is A ne , A ne element a in ne Represents the connectivity of edges and vertices in an undirected graph, when a ne = 1, it means that the edge e∈E connects the vertex n∈V. On this basis, the following linear optimization problems can be constructed:

[0122] Among them, when the vertex n initially has an odd number of connections, b n =1, otherwise when there are even number of connections b n =0. w n is an integer variable, and b n Adjusting the equality constraint...

Abstract

The invention discloses an unmanned aerial vehicle bridge floor coverage motion planning method, belongs to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle control, and aims to solve the motion planning problem that an unmanned aerial vehicle stably completes the full coverage of the bridge floor and meets the coverage resolution requirement in an automatic detection task of a bridge surface.
