[0018] In the network described in the scheme of the present invention, drones provide delivery services to users on different floors. Since traditional drones are usually powered by batteries and have limited flight time, installing solar panels on drones can enable the UAV to absorb solar energy and convert it into electrical energy during flight to charge the drone's battery, thereby extending the flight time of the drone. is the incident angle radiating the earth. In front of the target building for drone delivery (in the direction of the sun), there is a high The distance between the obstruction and the target delivery building is In the present invention, it is assumed that the user set for which drones provide delivery services for different floors is , the floor height of each user is At the same time, each user has a time window requirement for delivery time, that is, for users , and its required delivery time is ,in For users The earliest delivery time, For users Without loss of generality, assume that users are sorted in ascending order according to their earliest delivery time, that is, .

[0019] Since there is an obstacle in front of the target delivery building of the drone, it will produce a partial shadow at the target building. Therefore, it is necessary to calculate the shadow height of the obstacle at the target delivery building: ;

[0020] Therefore, if the user's height is If the drone is below 100%, it will not be able to receive sunlight during the hovering delivery period, and the solar panels will not work.

[0021] In order to improve the utilization rate of solar energy, the present invention provides a multi-round delivery method of UAV.
