[0002] 5G technology, especially its ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) feature, is opening up a new path for cross-domain low-latency remote control. At present, this technology has been piloted and applied in core scenarios such as industrial automation (such as remote control of port gantry cranes and mine trucks), remote surgery, precise load control of power grids, and intelligent transportation vehicle-road cooperation. The core lies in using the millisecond-level (theoretically up to 1 ms) end-to-end latency, ultra-high reliability and wide-area coverage capability of the 5G network to efficiently connect control terminals (such as operation cabins) and execution terminals (such as mechanical arms, drones and vehicles) deployed in different regions (possibly across cities, provinces or even national boundaries), and to realize real-time and accurate human-machine interaction or automatic control of remote devices. This represents a major evolution of remote operation technology from traditional dedicated wired networks or locally limited wireless networks to wide-area flexible deployment based on public mobile communications.

[0013] The technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to the described embodiments.

[0014] Embodiment 1: As shown in the figure, the explosion-proof humanoid robot 5G cross-domain low-latency remote control system of the present application includes a master end remote operation intelligent cockpit 10, a slave end remote explosion-proof humanoid robot 20, and a 5G base station 30. Figure 1

[0015] The specific configuration of the master end remote operation intelligent cockpit 10 is as follows: Remote driving control cabin 101: integrates all control interfaces and human-computer interaction functions, has a seat with ergonomic design, and provides a comfortable operating environment for the operator; an operating table is integrated in front of the leg of the cockpit, the operating table is provided with a driving control device including an automobile level accelerator pedal, a brake pedal and a steering wheel; a display is erected on the operating table, which adopts high-resolution multi-screen display to display the slave end multi-channel camera picture in real time; Remote operation device 102: includes a multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical arm structure, which can accurately simulate human hand movements; Master end intelligent terminal 103: uses an industrial computer with a hardware code independent graphics card, which has powerful data processing capability; Master end 5G router 104: uses an industrial 5G router to ensure the stability and reliability of communication.

[0016] The specific configuration of the slave end remote explosion-proof humanoid robot is as follows: Mobile chassis 201: uses a four-wheel drive wheeled chassis with omnidirectional movement capability; ​The humanoid robot 202 features: a multi-DOF neck (3 degrees of freedom for flexible head rotation); a waist (2 degrees of freedom for forward / backward bending and left / right rotation); hips connecting the waist to the chassis for cushioning; humanoid arms (7 degrees of freedom per arm, mimicking human arm movement); an end effector for grasping objects of various shapes and sizes; a six-dimensional force sensor for sensing forces and torques in the X, Y, and Z directions; a 360-degree scanning lidar for environmental mapping and obstacle detection; an inertial measurement unit (IMU) providing attitude, acceleration, and angular velocity information; an odometry system based on a wheel encoder for precise position measurement; and multiple cameras, including head, chest, and hand cameras, providing a 360-degree field of view. The intelligent terminals include: the humanoid robot intelligent terminal 205 uses NVIDIA Jetson nano, and the mobile chassis intelligent terminal 203 uses Raspberry Pi 4B. The 5G communication module includes: a slave 5G router 206 for 5G communication of a humanoid robot, and a 5G module 204 for 5G communication of a mobile chassis.

[0017] Example 2: As Figure 2 As shown, the process of building the communication system for the remotely operated intelligent cockpit is as follows: Network connection establishment: The master industrial control computer establishes a communication connection with the slave NVIDIA Jetson nano through an industrial-grade 5G router; the chassis Raspberry Pi establishes an independent communication channel with the master through a 5G module.

[0018] QT Interface Development: Developing a remote cockpit visualization interface based on the QT framework, mainly including: Cockpit button panel: Displays various control buttons and status indicator lights; Functional interface area: Includes real-time display of sensor information and remote chassis fault clearing function; Video window area: Displays real-time footage from multiple cameras on the slave end.

[0019] Client program: Reads information from external sensors, including the status information of menu buttons, accelerator pedal, brake pedal and steering wheel.

[0020] Functional modules: Enable auxiliary functions such as video window refresh, device restart, and fault diagnosis.

[0021] Example 3: A 5G cross-domain low-latency remote control method for an explosion-proof humanoid robot based on the system provided in Example 1, comprising the following steps: Step one: build a master end teleoperation intelligent cockpit and a slave end remote explosion-proof humanoid robot based on 5G cross-domain low latency: The whole control system of the application is composed of a master end teleoperation intelligent cockpit and a slave end remote explosion-proof humanoid robot, as shown in Figure 1 The master end teleoperation intelligent cockpit is the control end, including a seat, a remote teleoperation device, a driving control device (throttle / brake / steering wheel / intelligent cockpit), a display, an operation table, a master end intelligent terminal and a master end 5G router and the like. The slave end remote explosion-proof humanoid robot is the controlled end, including a mobile chassis, a humanoid body (humanoid multi-degree-of-freedom neck, humanoid waist, humanoid hip), a humanoid arm, an end gripper, a six-dimensional force sensor, a laser radar, an IMU, an odometer, a plurality of cameras, a slave end intelligent terminal, a 5G module, a slave end 5G router and the like.

[0022] Step two: build a remote information interaction and communication control system of the teleoperation intelligent cockpit. The intelligent terminal of the teleoperation intelligent cockpit is an industrial computer with a hardware code independent graphics card, and the humanoid robot intelligent terminal is a Nvidia Jetson nano. Both of them communicate and interact with each other through an industrial-grade 5G router. The mobile chassis intelligent terminal is a Raspberry Pi, which communicates and interacts with the teleoperation intelligent cockpit through a 5G module.

[0023] The Jetson Nano is responsible for voice, video and sensor data transmission in the slave end humanoid robot, such as video streaming service, and does not involve upper body joint control. The Raspberry Pi is used for communication and video streaming with the remote cockpit, and there is no business overlap between the Jetson Nano and the Raspberry Pi. The master end industrial control computer is responsible for real-time calculation and data transmission of teleoperation and force feedback.

[0024] A remote driving cockpit visualization interface is built through QT, and its function interface diagram is shown in Figure 2 The main components include a cockpit button panel, a function interface area and a video window area. The button panel is based on the QT interface program, and the client reads external sensor information (menu buttons, throttle, steering wheel). The function interaction interface includes real-time status display of external sensor information, remote chassis fault clearing, video window refreshing and device restarting.

[0025] Step three: when the master operator controls the driving in the cockpit, the driving cockpit enters the remote control mode, real-time calculation of current speed conversion data is performed, and linear speed / angular velocity information is sent to the Raspberry Pi on the remote mobile chassis, which is forwarded to the chassis controller through the 485 protocol to control the mobile chassis for movement and steering control.

[0026] Step four: the remote explosion-proof humanoid robot will obtain multiple camera video stream information through h.264 encoding and Webrtc push stream protocol, and push the video stream to the remote operation intelligent cockpit. The web end automatically decodes the video stream in real time and displays it. Other sensor data information including odometer, IMU, and laser radar is packaged by json and transmitted in real time to the master terminal through the 5G module to analyze and judge the environment information.

[0027] Among them, the robot joint data and sensor data are preferentially pushed, and the robot body parameter data is preferentially pushed than the video stream. In the application, different data types are marked with different quality of service (QoS) marks. For example, the DSCP (differentiated service code point) field of the IP header is used; adaptive code rate adjustment is adopted, and bandwidth, packet loss rate, etc. are monitored in real time. If the network is poor, the video stream quality will be automatically reduced to ensure the real-time performance and fidelity of the robot body parameters; robot parameters and sensor data are transmitted by UDP, and video stream is based on TCP.

[0028] Step five: when the master operator ends the remote control of the robot chassis and starts to remotely operate the remote control device, the intelligent terminal obtains the position torque and gripper control information of each joint motor of the remote control device in real time, and transmits the data to the remote humanoid robot through the 5G router for control.

[0029] Step six: the humanoid robot intelligent terminal calculates the real-time position torque of each humanoid joint motor and six-axis force sensor information in real time, and transmits the force feedback result to the master operator in real time through the 5G module for feeling, analysis and judgment, and performs the next real-time control adjustment operation of the humanoid robot.

[0030] Master-slave force feedback mechanism: the operator manipulates the master (7-degree-of-freedom force feedback input device), and the slave (a 7-degree-of-freedom robot) completely reproduces the motion of the master at the remote end; at the same time, the force generated by the interaction between the slave and the environment is accurately fed back to the master, so that the operator has a "first-hand" tactile feeling.

[0031] As shown in Figure 3 , the operator moves the master device, and the high-precision sensor of the master measures the angles of the 7 joints and the pose of the end effector in real time; through high-bandwidth closed-loop control, the master motion command is mapped to the slave to reproduce the motion in real time, and the slave force sensor information is mapped back to the master to generate feedback force, forming a position-force coupled bilateral control; based on model inverse solution and impedance adjustment algorithm, the model difference between master and slave is processed; through state observer and feedforward dynamic compensation, transmission delay and dynamic disturbance are offset, ensuring the transparency and stability of the operation.

[0032] The application adopts a bilateral control architecture based on position-force, and is specifically implemented as: Forward channel: master end pose Directly as slave end desired pose ; Reverse channel: slave end force measurement Directly as master end feedback force ; Model inverse solution: adopt inverse kinematics (IK) algorithm to solve the pose instruction Real-time into slave end joint angle instruction ; Impedance adjustment: adjust the damping and stiffness parameters in the impedance model , so that the slave end presents different compliance characteristics, thereby processing the difference between the dynamic models of the master and slave ends.

[0033] A Luenberger observer is adopted, and its mathematical model is: Wherein, is the estimated state vector, is the derivative of the estimated state, A, B and C are system matrix, input matrix and output matrix respectively, is the delayed control input, is the delayed measurement output, and L is the observer gain matrix; the observer uses the delayed control instruction and sensor data , continuously corrects the estimated state through the gain matrix L, so as to estimate the real-time speed and contact force and other states of the slave end without delay.

[0034] Feedforward dynamic compensation: the compensation term is , Wherein, is the feedforward compensation torque, is the joint position vector, is the joint speed vector, , is the expected joint acceleration and speed, is the inertia matrix, is the Coriolis and centrifugal force matrix, is the gravity vector, and the calculated compensation term is used to compensate the inertia force , gravity , Coriolis force and centrifugal force of the humanoid robot itself.The inner dynamics effect is reduced, thereby significantly reducing the burden of feedback control and improving system transparency and stability.

[0035] Step seven: To solve the problem of remote cross-domain control stability, the upper body control of the humanoid robot in the control system of the application is based on a humanoid controller + Raspberry Pi mode, and the chassis is controlled by a chassis controller + Raspberry Pi mode, which is hardware isolated and does not affect the data interaction of each other; the control information of the humanoid robot and the mobile chassis is encoded and decoded separately, and the data interaction and control operation do not affect each other.

[0036] Step eight: To ensure the correctness of the force feedback result and not affect the normal operation of the master end teleoperation staff, the application uses low-pass filtering to determine the appropriate threshold to eliminate the influence of small changes, so as to improve the stability and effectiveness of the entire force feedback process.

[0037] The low-pass filtering in the force feedback control mainly includes the cutoff frequency and the filtering algorithm: the core of the joint module noise is the noise frequency. The cutoff frequency must be higher than the effective frequency of the expected force signal (usually from contact or human operation, generally lower than 20-30Hz), but much lower than the high-frequency electronic noise (usually >100Hz), to balance between fidelity (preserve the true force signal) and noise reduction, and the specific value is adjusted according to the actual working condition; the cutoff frequency of the dynamics bandwidth cannot exceed the effective force feedback bandwidth of the master / slave robot. The frequency of the filtered force signal is higher than the frequency that the robot can respond to, which will cause the system to be unstable (such as generating oscillation).

[0038] Step nine: To solve the problem of remote cross-domain time delay, the application optimizes the protocol and transmission layer, trims the TCP / IP redundant fields, adopts a lightweight protocol (a custom reliable transmission protocol based on UDP), reduces the data packet encapsulation and decapsulation overhead, and compresses the IP / UDP packet.

[0039] Specifically, the application has made the following targeted optimization on the transmission protocol: (1) protocol selection: adopt a lightweight custom protocol based on UDP to replace TCP to eliminate the delay caused by handshake, retransmission and congestion control; (2) custom reliability: implement a lightweight retransmission mechanism based on sequence number and selective acknowledgement (SACK) for critical data (such as control instructions) in the application layer; (3) packet header compression: use the ROHC algorithm to compress the 40-byte IP / UDP packet header in a continuous stream to typically 1-4 bytes, greatly reducing the transmission overhead; (4) 5G network adaptation: adapt to the high bandwidth and jitter characteristics of 5G network through forward error correction (FEC) and delay-based congestion control algorithm.

[0040] By the above technical means, the redundant data transmission is reduced, the protocol stack is simplified, and the time delay is reduced. The standard IP / UDP header is 28 bytes, and after ROHC compression, the typical value is 3-4 bytes. Taking the conservative value 4 bytes as an example: the overhead reduction value is 28-4=24 bytes; the overhead reduction ratio is (24 / 28) x 100% approximately 85.7%; considering the connection establishment, non-ideal compression package and other factors, the redundant data transmission is reduced, the overhead is reduced by 60%, the protocol stack is simplified, and the time delay is reduced.

[0041] Directly removing the TCP checksum will completely lose the bit error detection capability of the transport layer. In complex networks such as 5G / WAN, although the underlying link reliability is already very high, there is still a very low probability of bit flipping. Undetected errors can cause robots to receive incorrect instructions or state data, which may cause safety and stability risks.

[0042] The compensation method is to embed an application layer end-to-end check in the header of all key data packets (such as motion instructions and force feedback values).

[0043] RC32 and other efficient check codes; selective retransmission: when the application layer check fails, the receiver will request the sender to retransmit the specific key data packet; data priority differentiation: for very high frequency and low priority sensor data, on the premise that the underlying link quality is very high, a small amount of reliability can be sacrificed to achieve very low delay, but core control instructions must always have strong verification.

[0044] Step ten: to solve the problem of remote cross-domain time delay, the resource scheduling and management layer is optimized, the traditional weak network resistance algorithm is optimized, and a machine learning algorithm is introduced to dynamically adjust and balance the time delay and energy efficiency. Machine learning is used to predict network congestion and channel state, dynamically adjust modulation mode, power and frequency band, and balance time delay and energy efficiency.

[0045] The machine learning algorithm used in the application is a method combining online supervised learning and deep reinforcement learning (DRL).

[0046] Online supervised learning: used to build a real-time network state prediction model, which takes historical network parameter sequences as input and outputs predictions of future short-term network states (such as time delay and bandwidth).

[0047] Deep reinforcement learning (DRL): the core algorithm is modeled as a Markov decision process (MDP); Agent: resource scheduler; State: real-time and predicted network state (such as time delay, packet loss rate, bandwidth, signal strength) Action: Communication parameters to be adjusted (e.g., switching frequency bands, adjusting transmit power, changing Modulation and Coding Scheme, MCS) Reward: The goal is to minimize latency, maintain reliability (reduce packet loss rate), and penalize high energy consumption operations. The algorithm learns through constant trial and error in specific network conditions.

[0048] The robot system adopts a hybrid mode of "pre-training + online fine-tuning": Pre-trained model: Offline pre-training of the model in a dataset and simulation environment, resulting in a basic model.

[0049] Online learning and fine-tuning: The model continuously fine-tunes based on real-time network data.

[0050] Fine-tuning adjusts the internal parameters of the control algorithm (such as the weights of the neural network), allowing the output actions to adapt to real dynamics (such as different friction, inertia) and real sensor noise (such as image blur, force sensation delay). This is usually done quickly through a small amount of online demonstration or real-time reward signals.

[0051] Dynamic parameter tuning: Adjusting the parameters of the underlying controller, such as PID gain, stiffness and damping in impedance control. The goal is to make the robot's "feel" more suitable for the current task, such as increasing sensitivity for delicate operations or increasing stability for heavy assembly.

[0052] Online trajectory correction: Dynamically adjusting the predetermined motion trajectory based on real-time sensor feedback (especially force sensation). For example, feeling a jam when inserting, fine-tune the end position and attitude to align the hole; feeling a larger contact force, automatically reducing the motion amplitude to avoid damaging the object.

[0053] The key parameters input to the real-time prediction model mainly include: Latency: Including one-way delay and round-trip time (RTT), is the core prediction target; Packet Loss Rate: A key indicator of channel reliability; Bandwidth: Estimate of available uplink and downlink bandwidth; Jitter: The rate of change of latency, affecting the stability of transmission; Signal Strength (RSRP / RSRQ): In 5G / 4G networks, this is a basic physical layer parameter that determines connection quality.

[0054] These parameters are combined into a time series as input to the prediction model and reinforcement learning state space.

[0055] Based on the output of Markov decision, the robot system dynamically adjusts the following communication parameters, and the mechanism is as follows: Modulation mechanism: When the predicted network quality is good (high signal-to-noise ratio), high-order modulation (such as 1024-QAM) and efficient coding are selected to improve spectral efficiency and transmit more data in the same time, thereby reducing latency. When the predicted network quality is poor, it is automatically downgraded to low-order modulation (such as QPSK) and redundant coding, sacrificing speed for reliability to avoid greater latency caused by retransmission.

[0056] Power mechanism: Power optimization is performed under the premise of ensuring connection reliability. When the link quality is expected to be good, the transmission power is intelligently reduced to directly save device energy consumption; when the signal attenuation or interference is predicted to increase, the power is moderately increased in advance to resist quality deterioration and avoid the huge latency overhead caused by connection interruption.

[0057] Network band mechanism: The machine learning algorithm learns the historical performance of each frequency band (such as 5G C-Band vs. millimeter wave) in different scenarios. For example, when it is predicted that the user moves to the millimeter wave coverage area, the millimeter wave frequency band with high speed is preferentially selected to extremely reduce the latency; when it is predicted that it moves out of the coverage area, it is switched to a low-frequency band with wider coverage in advance to prevent connection interruption and ensure the continuity of the control loop.

[0058] Step eleven: The invention of the 5G cross-domain low-latency remote control system and method of the explosion-proof humanoid robot can adapt to scenarios such as short-term network instability causing latency jitter, network packet loss, etc.

[0059] In the actual 5G / 4G network and Internet environment, multiple typical application scenarios are selected to cover indoor and outdoor environments, including network switching and signal fluctuations; timestamps are stamped between the master control instruction input point and the slave execution mechanism response point (or delay measurement tools are used on closed-loop video streams), and the total delay from the "brain" to the "limb" is directly measured. The test results show that the humanoid control and force feedback latency is within 100ms, and the chassis control and camera sensor latency is within 150ms. Under this latency, the master operator almost feels no control delay, which can maximize the safety and stability of remote driving and remote operation.

[0060] The system realizes remote master-slave force feedback teleoperation control. The core mechanism is that the operator controls the slave end (including a mobile chassis and a humanoid robot) through the master end (including a teleoperation intelligent cockpit). The master controls the slave: the motion instructions (such as position and attitude) of the master end component are collected and sent to the slave end controller in real time, and the slave end mechanical arm is driven to realize synchronous motion. Slave end force feedback: when performing a task, the torque / force information generated by the contact between the slave end humanoid robot and the environment is perceived and fed back to the master end force feedback device. Operator tactile perception: the feedback torque / force acts on the operator's hand, allowing the operator to truly perceive the interaction force between the slave end and the environment. Precise closed-loop operation: this force feedback helps the operator make more accurate adjustments, and through continued operation of the master end control arm, the slave end completes the task with fine control.

[0061] An operation table is arranged in the front leg area of the cockpit. This operation table integrates key control interfaces: a mobile chassis control steering wheel: directly connected to the operation table, the operator can control the steering of the mobile chassis through this steering wheel. Master-slave control throttle and brake pedals: arranged on the operation table surface. The operator can control the acceleration and deceleration of the remote humanoid robot chassis through the throttle pedal to complete large-scale rapid movement. The operator can stop the chassis motion by stepping on the brake pedal. During system control, the operator can naturally adjust the sitting posture or operation posture (for example: stretch the legs, change the arm position) to prepare for subsequent teleoperation. This design makes human-machine interaction more flexible: the operator can directly control the chassis without getting up or leaving the seat, and can quickly and conveniently disconnect the master-slave cooperation to adjust the posture when needed.

[0062] There is a display screen in front of the cockpit to real-time return the environment information of the slave end to the master end display screen device for display, such as the information of multiple cameras and various sensors of the remote humanoid robot. Real-time acquisition of remote real environment images and humanoid robot information facilitates precise operation by the operator. The mobile chassis is a wheeled mobile chassis, which greatly reduces the energy consumption problem of the slave end device during movement and realizes rapid movement, improving the efficiency of remote operation of the device.

[0063] 5G mobile communication technology as today's mainstream advanced communication standards, is a comprehensive iteration and major leap of 4G technology. It aims to build a new generation of communication network with ultra-high speed, extreme response, green efficiency, super large capacity and can support massive device interconnection, mainly with a large number of core advantages. Ultra-high transmission rate. 5G can provide several times or even tens of times the peak rate of 4G, and the theoretical download speed can reach several Gbps level, so that the super high definition video stream and the large file transmission are close to instantaneous completion, which greatly improves the user experience.

[0064] The weak network resistance algorithm is a communication optimization technology system designed for unstable network (high delay, packet loss, jitter) scenarios, and its core goal is to maintain the continuity, stability and low delay of communication through a dynamic adaptation mechanism. The essence is to build reliability on an unreliable channel, and the remote cross-domain low delay control has higher requirements for the weak network resistance algorithm. The application introduces a machine learning algorithm to predict the network state, intelligently and real-time adjust the key communication parameters (modulation mode, power, frequency band), so as to optimize the balance between delay and energy efficiency in harsh environment. Through data collection and environment perception, machine learning prediction modeling, intelligent resource optimization decision and other steps, the optimization of the whole weak network resistance algorithm is completed.
