[0061] The specific implementation of the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described here is only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and is not used to limit the present invention.

[0062] As one aspect of the present disclosure, a method for processing an electroencephalogram signal is provided. Figure 1 As shown, the processing method includes:

[0063] In step S110, an initial EEG signal is received;

[0064] In step S120, the acquisition channel corresponding to the initial EEG signal is determined according to the acquisition position of the initial EEG signal;

[0065] In step S130, the received initial EEG signal is modulated to obtain a target EEG signal with an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbol;

[0066] In step S140, the target EEG signal is fitted with a carrier signal corresponding to an acquisition channel of the target EEG signal to obtain an uplink EEG signal;

[0067] In step S150, the uplink electroencephalogram signal is transmitted, wherein the carrier signals corresponding to different acquisition channels are orthogonal signals to each other.

[0068] Among them, the initial EEG signals collected at different locations correspond to different collection channels.

[0069] The processing method can be executed by a processor of the VR glasses.

[0070] In the present disclosure, the user's initial EEG signal can be collected by the EEG signal electrode. Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, multiple EEG signal electrodes (respectively EEG signal electrode A1, EEG signal electrode A2, EEG signal electrode FP1, EEG signal electrode FP2, EEG signal electrode F7, EEG signal electrode F3, EEG signal electrode Fz, EEG signal electrode F4, EEG signal electrode F8, EEG signal electrode FT7, EEG signal electrode FC3, EEG signal electrode FCz, EEG signal electrode FT8, EEG signal electrode C3, EEG signal electrode Cz, EEG signal electrode C4, EEG signal electrode T4, EEG signal electrode TP7, EEG signal electrode CP3, EEG signal electrode CPz, EEG signal electrode CP4, EEG signal electrode TP8, EEG signal electrode T5, EEG signal electrode P3, EEG signal electrode Pz, EEG signal electrode P4, EEG signal electrode T6, EEG signal electrode O1, EEG signal electrode Oz, and EEG signal electrode O2) can be set at different positions on the user's head to collect EEG signals from various areas of the user's brain. The initial EEG signals collected and generated by the respective EEG signal electrodes carry respective identification information, and the identification information is used to characterize the positions of the EEG signal electrodes that collect the initial EEG signals.

[0071] As an optional implementation, the signals collected by the EEG signal electrode O1, the EEG signal electrode Oz, the EEG signal electrode O2, and the EEG signal electrode Pz can be selected as the initial EEG signals. The four initial EEG signals are processed by the processing method provided by the present disclosure, and finally four uplink EEG signals can be formed, and these four EEG signals are mutually orthogonal signals.

[0072] In the processing method provided in the present disclosure, after the initial EEG signal is processed to obtain the target EEG signal, the carrier signal can be fitted with the target EEG signal, thereby facilitating the receiving end to extract the frequency domain characteristics of the EEG signal and perform instruction analysis based on it, thereby accurately operating the receiving end through the user's EEG signal and improving the user experience.

[0073] In addition, in the present disclosure, the initial EEG signal is processed to obtain a target EEG signal with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing OFDM symbols. OFDM symbols are prefixes of signal cycles, that is, in the processing method provided by the present disclosure, when transmitting an uplink EEG signal with OFDM symbols, a multi-channel-based OFDM technology is used to transmit the uplink EEG signal.

[0074] The carrier signals corresponding to different acquisition channels are orthogonal signals to each other. Therefore, during the transmission of multiple uplink EEG signals, there will be no interference between the target EEG signals carried by different carrier signals.

[0075] For most people, when they look at an image or object, their attention is always not focused enough in the initial period (e.g., within the first 1 second). Therefore, the strength of the EEG signal collected in the initial period is also lower than the strength of the EEG signal collected later. In order to enable the receiving end to obtain a sufficiently strong uplink signal, as an optional implementation, Figure 3 As shown, the step S130 of performing modulation processing on the received initial EEG signal to obtain a target EEG signal having an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing OFDM symbol may include:

[0076] In step S131, the signal within a predetermined time period of the initial EEG signal is processed to obtain the OFDM symbol;

[0077] In step S132, the signal after the predetermined time period in the initial EEG signal is processed to obtain a main target signal, wherein the target EEG signal includes the OFDM symbol and the main target signal.

[0078] In the uplink EEG signal, the subject target signal carries control information with sufficient intensity.

[0079] In order to further improve the quality of the uplink signal, Figure 4 As shown, the step S132 of processing the signal after the predetermined time period in the initial EEG signal to obtain the subject target signal may include:

[0080] In step S132a, filtering and denoising the signal after the predetermined time period in the initial EEG signal is processed to obtain a filtered and denoised subject signal;

[0081] In step S132b, the filtered and denoised subject signal is processed to obtain the subject target signal.

[0082] In step S140, the subject target signal and the carrier signal may be linearly fitted by using a canonical correlation analysis (CCA) method, and the calculation formula is shown in the following formula (1):

[0083]

[0084] Among them, x represents the EEG signal;

[0085] y represents the carrier signal;

[0086] ρ(x, y) represents the correlation coefficient between the EEG signal and the carrier signal.

[0087] The EEG signal data when the correlation coefficient ρ between the EEG signal x and the carrier signal y is the largest can be calculated by the above formula (1). The motor imagery signal and the Steady State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP) signal fitted with the carrier signal both have obvious amplitude-frequency characteristics, that is, they have obvious peaks at a certain frequency. After the receiving end performs a fast Fourier transform (FFT) on the received signal, the energy peak value in the signal can be obtained, and then the operation instructions carried in the signal are judged by a predetermined algorithm, and finally the corresponding control signal is generated.

[0088] As a second aspect of the present disclosure, a control method of an electronic device is provided, such as Figure 5 As shown, the control method includes:

[0089] In step S210, an ascending electroencephalogram signal is received, where the ascending electroencephalogram signal is the ascending electroencephalogram signal obtained in the processing method provided in the first aspect of the present disclosure;

[0090] In step S220, the OFDM symbols of each received uplink EEG signal are aligned;

[0091] In step S230, the OFDM symbols in each uplink EEG signal after OFDM symbol alignment are removed;

[0092] In step S240, the uplink EEG signal with the OFDM symbol removed is decoded to obtain a decoded signal;

[0093] In step S250, a control signal is generated according to the decoded signal.

[0094] The control method provided by the present disclosure is executed by an electronic device used as a receiving end. As an optional implementation, the electronic device may be a drone aircraft.

[0095] In the present disclosure, after receiving the uplink EEG signal sent by the transmitter (for example, VR glasses), when decoding each uplink EEG signal, it is necessary to ensure that the orthogonal relationship between the multiple uplink EEG signals is still maintained. Since time delays will be generated in the process of wireless signal transmission, in order to ensure that each signal during decoding is an orthogonal signal, it is necessary to align the OFDM symbols of each received uplink EEG signal to eliminate the impact caused by the transmission delay. After aligning the OFDM symbols of each received uplink EEG signal, according to the signal structure of the OFDM symbol, the OFDM symbol is discarded, and the information corresponding to the main target signal can be obtained. After decoding the information corresponding to the main target signal, EEG information can be obtained, and finally, a control signal for controlling the electronic device can be generated based on the EEG information obtained by decoding.

[0096] Since the transmitting end fits the target EEG signals corresponding to different acquisition channels with different carrier signals, there is no interference between the uplink EEG signals corresponding to different carrier signals, and the uplink EEG signals received by the receiving end are more accurate (that is, closer to the target EEG signals obtained by the transmitting end). The control signal generated according to the uplink EEG signal can also more accurately reflect the user's actual operation intention, and ultimately can accurately control the electronic equipment at the receiving end to correctly execute the user's operation requirements, thereby improving the user experience.

[0097] In the present disclosure, there is no special limitation on how to perform step S240. As described above, the uplink EEG signal with OFDM symbols removed can be decoded by fast Fourier transform.

[0098] In the present disclosure, there is no particular limitation on how to align the OFDM symbols of each received uplink EEG signal. Figure 6 As shown, step S220 may include:

[0099] In step S221, the delay degree of the uplink EEG signal corresponding to each acquisition channel is determined by an autocorrelation detection algorithm;

[0100] In step S222, the OFDM symbols of the uplink EEG signals whose delay exceeds a preset value are filled so that the OFDM symbols of the uplink EEG signals are aligned.

[0101] As an optional implementation, step S221 is described in detail below.

[0102] In the present disclosure, an OFDM symbol can be expressed by the following formula (2):

[0103]

[0104] Among them, s(n) is the total amount of ascending EEG signals in a period of time;

[0105] N represents the number of channels for sending uplink EEG signals, and N is a positive integer;

[0106] S k represents the modulation signal to be transmitted in the kth channel, k is a natural number, and 0≤k≤N-1;

[0107] j represents the imaginary part of the signal.

[0108] As an optional implementation, N is 4, and k is selected from 0, 1, 2, and 3.

[0109] The steps of performing normalized delayed autocorrelation detection on each OFDM symbol include:

[0110] After delaying the signal to be detected by D sampling points, take its conjugate value S k * (n+D);

[0111] Multiply the above conjugate value with the corresponding original signal;

[0112] The delay product sum C(n) is obtained by accumulating the results using a sliding window of length W. The delay product sum is expressed by formula (3):

[0113]

[0114] The signal energy value P(n) in the sliding window is calculated according to formula (4):

[0115]

[0116] According to formula (5), the normalized delayed autocorrelation detection value M(n) represents the delay degree of the uplink EEG signal:

[0117]

[0118] There will also be multipath effects in the transmission process of multiple mutually orthogonal signals. The so-called multipath effect refers to the fact that after electromagnetic waves propagate through different paths, each component field arrives at the receiving end at different times, and the interference is caused by the superposition of each phase, which distorts the original signal or generates errors. In the control method provided by the present disclosure, after receiving the uplink EEG signals corresponding to each acquisition channel, the length of the delay window corresponding to each acquisition channel is adjusted according to the normalized delay detection value of the received uplink EEG signals, and the final signal detection time is determined, which can largely eliminate the signal interference caused by the multipath effect, ensure frame synchronization and simultaneous decoding of multi-channel carrier signals, and accurately extract the relevant features of the EEG signals.

[0119] As a third aspect of the present disclosure, a method for controlling VR glasses is provided, such as Figure 7 As shown, the control method includes:

[0120] In step S310, an image signal sent by the UAV aircraft is received;

[0121] In step S320, scene rendering is performed on the received image signal to obtain a scene rendering result;

[0122] In step S330, the scene rendering result is displayed;

[0123] In step S340, in response to the received EEG signal, the EEG signal processing method provided in the first aspect of the present disclosure is executed to obtain the uplink EEG signal;

[0124] In step S350, the uplink EEG signal is sent to the drone aircraft.

[0125] By executing the control method of the VR glasses provided in the present invention, users can not only see the images taken by the drone aircraft from the perspective of the drone aircraft, but also control the flight of the drone through motion imagination (including controlling the position of the aircraft, controlling the ascent of the aircraft, and controlling the descent of the aircraft), etc.

[0126] Moreover, by processing EEG signals through the processing method provided by the present invention, interference between different types of EEG signals during transmission can be avoided to the greatest extent, ensuring that the UAV aircraft can parse out control signals that can reflect the user's real image, and ultimately complete the flight according to the user's imagination, thereby improving the user experience.

[0127] As described above, EEG signals can be collected by EEG signal collection electrodes. When users generate different movement imaginations, different EEG signals can be generated. For example, the EEG signals of imagining the drone aircraft rising, the EEG signals of imagining the drone aircraft descending, the EEG signals of imagining the drone rotating to the left (the user can imagine his or her left hand), and the EEG signals of imagining the drone rotating to the right (the user can imagine his or her right hand) are different from each other. By decoding the uplink EEG signals, the drone aircraft can determine the operation instructions corresponding to the EEG signals and realize the control of the drone flight.

[0128] It should be pointed out that, although the control method is described in the above text in the order of step S310 to step S350, steps S310 to step S330 are performed in sequence, and step S340 and step S350 are performed in sequence, but step S340 may occur before step S310, or may be performed synchronously with any one of step S310, step S320 and step S330, or may be performed between any two of step S310, step S320 and step S330. As long as step S340 is performed before step S350, it will be fine.

[0129] In order to ensure the safety of the UAV aircraft, optionally, the control method further includes:

[0130] In response to the drone abnormality signal sent by the drone aircraft, a warning message is displayed.

[0132] Here, the warning information may include displaying a flashing warning icon on the screen. By flashing the warning icon, the user may be prompted to generate an SSVEP signal and ultimately control the drone to perform operations such as returning or landing.

[0146] As an optional implementation, the electronic device may be a drone aircraft.

[0153] The VR flight glasses also include a signal amplification module, which can amplify the EEG signal processed by the main control device according to the processing method provided by the first aspect of the present disclosure to obtain an uplink EEG signal, and then provide the uplink EEG signal to the FPGA for signal transmission.

[0154] The UAV aircraft includes a camera sensor, a UAV main control device, an FFT module, a parallel / serial conversion module, and a signal receiving module.

[0156] The parallel / serial conversion module can convert the parallel signal after taking out the OFDM symbol into a serial signal.

[0157] The FFT module can decode the serial signal.

[0158] The UAV main control device can analyze the decoded signal to obtain a control signal, and transmit the control signal to the propeller electrode drive module to drive the UAV to fly according to the control signal.
