Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of flight guidance for aircraft avionics systems, and particularly to a method, a system and a readable storage medium for generating deviation guidance information in the aircraft approach and landing stage.
Background Art
[0002] At present, during the aircraft approach and landing process, the instrument landing system (ILS) is mainly relied on to achieve precise approach guidance for the aircraft. It mainly emits radio beams into the air through the instrument landing system installed on the ground, forming a course plane and a glide plane in the approach airspace. When the aircraft is in the approach glide process, the on-board ILS receiving module receives the course plane beam and the glide plane beam, so as to display the deviation of the current position of the aircraft from the course plane and the glide plane on the primary flight display (PFD) in the cockpit, and provides real-time glide guidance for the pilot through two decoupled horizontal and vertical deviation guidance symbols (magenta diamond symbols).
[0003] Currently, in the final approach stage of the aircraft, the problems existing in the horizontal / vertical deviation guidance display based on the ILS system are as follows:
[0004] 1. The construction cost and maintenance cost of the ILS itself are high, and not all airports have the ability of ILS precise approach guidance.
[0005] The traditional instrument landing system can meet the guidance and control requirements for the approach and landing of fixed-wing aircraft, but its construction and maintenance costs are high. It has always mainly served large civil airports to meet the requirements for the precision approach of civil aircraft in the operating environment of airports with a large traffic density.
[0006] 2. In current related patents, the key points and existing problems of the landing guidance scheme based on the out-of-cockpit environmental vision enhancement system
[0007] Research on related patents shows that the current focus of the landing guidance scheme design based on the out-of-cockpit environmental vision enhancement system is on the processing of sensor data of the visible light / infrared enhanced vision system, image fusion, and spatial image registration and correction. It mainly solves the problem of enhanced perception ability of the external environment and provides the pilot with the ability to perceive the out-of-cockpit environment in harsh environments and low visibility conditions. However, there is little research on how to generate, display and interact with flight glide guidance information on the display instruments such as the cockpit PFD based on the processed image data.
[0008] Therefore, it is necessary to study a method, a system and a readable storage medium for generating deviation guidance information in the aircraft approach and landing stage to address the deficiencies of the existing technology and solve or mitigate one or more of the above problems.
Summary of the Invention
[0009] In view of this, the present invention provides a method, a system and a readable storage medium for generating deviation guidance information in the aircraft approach and landing section. It can be used for an aircraft in the approach and landing section to provide enhanced out-of-cockpit vision display for the cockpit pilot and at the same time provide approach and glide deviation guidance information based on an equivalent ILS deviation guidance method. The present invention mainly calculates and extracts the feature information of key targets (airport runways) in the pixel plane based on the real image data of the target landing airport and the synthetic vision three-dimensional map data, and equivalently calculates the position deviation of the aircraft approach and glide from the pixel position deviation at the current moment, so as to generate deviation guidance information.

[0074] The present invention also provides a readable storage medium storing instructions which, when run on a computer, cause the computer to execute any one of the methods for generating deviation guidance information in the aircraft approach and landing phase.
[0075] Embodiment 1:
[0076] The present invention proposes a method for obtaining a glide guidance by comparing an image captured in real time by an external visual sensor, through image processing, with a sequence of glide reference images generated from a known three-dimensional high-precision airport map. The method of the present invention can be regarded as an upgrade of the existing Enhanced Vision System (EVS) and Synthetic Vision System (SVS), mainly solving the problem of providing an approach guidance method that does not rely on the Instrument Landing System (ILS) in the glide landing phase, and the guidance function achieved is equivalent to that of the ILS guidance.
[0077] The method for generating glide deviation guidance based on the external runway image feature information of the present invention is a method for generating glide deviation guidance equivalent to that of the ILS Instrument Landing System based on the localizer / glide slope radio signals. The former guides the aircraft to the standard glide path by eliminating the pixel position deviation between associated feature points in the pixel plane at the same moment; while the latter guides the aircraft to the standard glide path by eliminating the localizer / glide slope radio signal deviation received at the position of the aircraft at the current moment. The process of the method of the present invention is as follows Figure 1 as shown. Among them, the "external runway image feature" of the present invention can also be extended to other target object image features according to the actual situation of the scene and the functions of the feature detection and extraction module.
[0078] According to the foregoing, the process of generating the aircraft approach glide guidance recommendation based on the external airport runway image feature information is itself a technological innovation, and no similar method has appeared in the published patents and literature. In addition, according to Figure 1 as shown, the most innovative points of the present invention are: First, generating a sequence of frames of the glide process images from the virtual camera perspective based on the existing three-dimensional high-precision airport map database, and using this sequence of frames as the basis for calculating the glide deviation guidance; Second, by comparing the pixel coordinates of the airport runway center point in the "real-time external image" and the airport runway center point in the "image generated by the virtual camera", calculating the pixel deviation value of the airport runway center point, and then generating a glide deviation guidance recommendation.
[0079] The adoption of the method of the present invention can achieve glide deviation guidance without relying on the ILS Instrument Landing System, providing a simple, low-cost, and safe and efficient method for generating glide deviation guidance, which is suitable for airports without the installation or the landing guidance ability of the ILS system.
[0080] 4. For the same technical concept, it is necessary to ensure the consistency of the terms used in the context, otherwise it will increase unnecessary communication costs; for English technical terms, the Chinese meanings should also be given; for self-created technical terms, special markings should be made.
[0081] The method for generating the glide deviation guidance based on the image feature information outside the cabin in the present invention is a method for generating the glide deviation guidance by an equivalent ILS instrument landing system based on the localizer / glide slope radio signals.
[0082] The method in the present invention guides the aircraft to the standard glide slope by eliminating the pixel position deviation between the associated feature points in the pixel plane of the virtual camera of the real-time outside-cabin image and the three-dimensional high-precision map at the same moment. As Figure 1 shown, this method is divided into two branches on the left and right. The center points of the airport runway in the real captured image and the virtual runway center point under the three-dimensional high-precision map are calculated respectively. Finally, the glide deviation guidance information is generated from the pixel deviation values of these two calculated center points.
[0083] The specific steps are as follows. Among them, the steps of the left branch are:
[0084] First, based on the airborne vision sensor, collect the outside-cabin environment image during the aircraft's approach and glide. The image should include the runway of the target landing airport.
[0085] Second, from the collected real-time outside-cabin image data, through image feature detection and extraction, obtain the key feature information (the information of the four corner points of the runway) of the target landing airport runway, and output the position coordinates of the key feature information of the airport runway in the camera image plane coordinate system in real time.
[0086] Third, from the position coordinates of the four corner points of the airport runway obtained in the second step, calculate the center point coordinates of the airport runway in the camera image plane coordinate system.
[0087] Fourth, at the same time, from the position coordinates of the four corner points of the airport runway obtained in the second step, generate the real-time outside-cabin airport runway border and provide it to the PFD for real-time display.
[0088] The steps of the right branch are:
[0089] First, from the airport three-dimensional high-precision map database, generate a sequence of approach and glide image frames in the perspective of the virtual camera according to the aircraft target approach and glide slope angle and the known aircraft approach and glide attitude angle.
[0090] Second, from the sequence of approach and glide image frames generated in the first step, extract the virtual camera imaging image frame corresponding to the current moment according to the alignment at the current moment.
[0091] Third, calculate the center point coordinates of the ideal target landing airport runway from the virtual camera imaging image frame at the current moment obtained in the second step.
[0092] Finally, based on the results of the center point position coordinates of the airport runway calculated by the left and right branches, generate real-time airport runway center point deviation information, and then generate a glide path deviation guidance suggestion, which is provided to the PFD for approach glide path guidance display, or directly output to the autopilot system.
[0093] In the above step description, the following points need to be noted:
[0094] 1. The implementation of the "first step" in the right branch process, after clarifying the landing airport runway of this flight, the approach glide path angle of this flight, and the general approach glide attitude angle of the aircraft, the image frame sequence under the virtual camera view can be generated through three-dimensional space geometric relationships. Therefore, this step is generally an offline calculation process to save online computing resources;
[0095] 2. To make the approach glide pixel deviation calculation accurate, the virtual camera view described here needs to be spatially aligned with the view of the real airborne vision sensor, that is, the image registration principle described in our synthetic vision system (SVS) design;
[0096] 3. In the left and right branches, the alignment of the image frames at the current moment means aligning the actual approach glide position and the virtual camera imaging position at a certain moment, so that the virtual camera imaging position is the reference position;
[0097] 4. Airport runway center point deviation generation process: Calculate the vector pointing from the center point of the airport runway in the real captured image to the virtual runway center point under the three-dimensional high-precision map, and decompose it into a horizontal deviation vector and a vertical deviation vector in the horizontal and vertical directions, as Figure 2 shown;
[0098] 5. The "out-of-cabin runway image features" described in the present invention can also be extended to other target object image features according to the actual situation of the scene and the functions of the feature detection and extraction module;
[0099] 6. The PFD approach glide path deviation guidance display can be compatible with the existing ILS deviation guidance scheme (as Figure 3 shown), or it can be redesigned, which is not specifically described in the present invention.
[0100] The present invention can be applied to the design of an aircraft intelligent cockpit or the field of aircraft intelligent driving technology. The relevant target key feature information and deviation guidance information generated by the present invention can be displayed and interacted on the primary flight display (PFD), providing an intuitive and reasonable glide guidance method for the pilot; or the deviation guidance information calculated during the approach glide can be sent to the aircraft autopilot system to achieve automatic approach and landing.
[0101] In the present invention, the improved primary flight display (PFD) display interaction function is mentioned, which provides an enhanced out-of-cockpit environment display interaction experience for the cockpit pilot. Mainly by introducing the real image data of the target landing airport or the synthetic vision three-dimensional map on the PFD display interaction page, the key feature information of the runway of the target landing airport calculated by the on-board intelligent auxiliary driving system and other enhanced display symbols are displayed in real time on the PFD. At present, the existing technical solutions related to this patent mainly focus on the product design and implementation of the enhanced vision system (EVS) and the synthetic vision system (SVS). It mainly uses out-of-cockpit visible light / infrared image sensing devices to display the captured visible light / infrared fused image on the cockpit head-up display or PFD, or display the synthetic vision image on the cockpit head-up display or PFD. This process needs to consider the alignment of the image display with the coordinates of the real physical world outside the cockpit.
[0102] The main difference between the present invention and the prior art is that, based on the enhanced display of the above-mentioned scheme, the present invention focuses on how to provide an enhanced guidance display interaction function for the pilot during the approach glide. Based on the horizontal and vertical glide guidance methods in the traditional PFD display, the key feature information of the runway of the target landing airport calculated by the out-of-cockpit environment image machine vision processing module is used for feature display on the PFD base map, and equivalent horizontal and deviation guidance information is provided.
[0103] Compared with the traditional ILS-based precision approach glide guidance method, the source of the guidance deviation information of the aircraft approach and landing guidance method described in the present invention is not the localizer and glide slope radio signals transmitted by the ILS system, but the images real-time collected by the out-of-cockpit vision sensor. After the airport runway image feature detection and calculation, the runway features in the glide reference image sequence offline generated by the airport high-precision map are compared. Through the deviation position calculation between the associated feature points of the airport runway in the pixel plane, the final glide guidance suggestion provided to the pilot or the autopilot system is obtained.
[0104] Compared with the traditional out-of-cockpit vision enhancement system, the present invention provides a more intuitive and operable glide guidance for the pilot, which can be used as an extended function of the subsequent out-of-cockpit vision enhancement system.
