Embodiment

[0046] This embodiment provides a method for remote upgrade and rollback of UAV software, such as figure 2 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0047] The drone includes a storage area and a software upgrade module for the drone; the storage area is divided into a main storage area, a backup storage area and a data area;

[0048] Both the main storage area and the backup storage area are used to store the software required for the normal operation of the UAV and store the same version of the software. The UAV software upgrade module only upgrades the software in the backup storage area;

[0049] The data area is used to store various data generated during the UAV upgrade mission, and any process can perform read and write operations;

[0050] The upgrade operation in the backup storage area specifically includes the following steps:

[0051] Step 1, the UAV software upgrade module receives the ground station upgrade command, confirms the upgrade software ver...

Abstract

The invention provides an unmanned aerial vehicle software remote upgrading and rollback method. An unmanned aerial vehicle comprises a storage area and an unmanned aerial vehicle software upgrading module. The storage area is divided into a main storage area, a standby storage area and a data area. According to the method, the storage area is partitioned, so that the unmanned aerial vehicle can carry out an upgrading task and can also keep normal work, the current task of the unmanned aerial vehicle does not need to be interrupted, and compared with a traditional disassembly upgrading mode, the method has the advantages that the complicated operation of equipment disassembly is effectively avoided, and the risk of damage to the unmanned aerial vehicle equipment is avoided; in the case of abnormal upgrading or upgrading failure caused by external uncontrollable factors (such as sudden power failure) in the upgrading process of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the unmanned aerial vehicle can still work again by using the software of the old version through the rollback operation without causing equipment paralysis, so that the robustness of the upgrading process is effectively ensured, and the technical problem that in the prior art, unmanned aerial vehicle software upgrading is low in cost and efficiency is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicles, relates to software upgrades, and in particular relates to a method for remote upgrade and rollback of unmanned aerial vehicle software. Background technique [0002] Due to their high maneuverability and low cost, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), also commonly referred to as unmanned aerial vehicles or remotely piloted aircraft, have achieved widespread adoption over the past few decades. [0003] Due to the changeable use environment of drones, as well as improving the diversity of drone control functions and continuously improving the user experience, it is necessary to upgrade the drone software. [0004] When upgrading the software of the existing UAV, it is necessary for the personnel of the UAV manufacturer to disassemble the UAV on site, and then use cables to connect the relevant hardware equipment to upgrade. The upgrade efficiency is low and the maintenance cost is hig...
