[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, in which:

[0019] Figure 1 It is a structural block diagram of the aircraft system based on Beidou short message communication of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0021] In the subsequent description, suffixes such as "module," "component," or "unit" used to represent elements are only used to facilitate the description of the present invention and have no specific meaning. Therefore, "module," "component," or "unit" can be used interchangeably.

[0022] Figure 1 This is a block diagram of the structure of an aircraft system based on Beidou short message communication according to the present invention. This embodiment provides an aircraft system based on Beidou short message communication, which includes: an aircraft 10 equipped with a first Beidou short message module 11, a computer 20 equipped with a second Beidou short message module 12, an aircraft command and dispatch system 30 in communication with the computer 20, and a ground station 40 in communication with the aircraft command and dispatch system 30.

[0024] The computer 20 is used to receive the flight data through the second Beidou short message module 12, obtain the aircraft identification, and send the flight data to the aircraft command and dispatch system 30 according to the data request of the aircraft command and dispatch system 30 and the aircraft identification; when there are multiple aircraft 10, the second Beidou short message module 12 can simultaneously receive the flight data of multiple aircraft 10 and obtain the identification of each aircraft to realize communication between a single computer 20 and multiple aircraft 10.

[0025] The aircraft command and dispatch system 30 is used to display the flight data according to the aircraft identification and provide a data sharing interface, and receive control instructions sent by the ground station 40 according to the instruction request of the ground station 40 and the aircraft identification;

[0026] The ground station 40 is used to receive the flight data transmitted by the data sharing interface, generate the control instructions according to the control requirements of the aircraft 10, and send the control instructions to the aircraft command and dispatch system 30 according to the aircraft identification.

[0027] In this embodiment, considering that current aircraft systems cannot continuously monitor the flight status data of aircraft flying at an altitude of 1,000 meters true altitude and a distance of 500 kilometers, the aircraft system proposed in this embodiment, based on BeiDou short message communication, can receive status data and send control commands for multiple aircraft 10, and share this data in real time with other ground stations 40 or other aircraft command and dispatch systems 30 for simultaneous monitoring.

[0028] In this embodiment, an aircraft equipped with a first Beidou short message module 11 transmits flight data to a second Beidou short message module 12 on the ground. After receiving the flight data, the second Beidou short message module 12 on the ground connects the flight data to a computer 20 connected to the internet via a data interface. After receiving the flight data from the second Beidou short message module 12, the computer 20 matches the first and / or second Beidou card numbers, using one or both Beidou card numbers as unique identifiers. The computer 20 then transmits the flight data in accordance with the data format requirements of the aircraft command and dispatch system 30. After receiving the flight data, the aircraft command and dispatch system 30 displays and provides a sharing function on the aircraft's monitoring system. Based on this, the ground station 40 receives and sends control commands via the aircraft command and dispatch system 30.

[0029] Optionally, in this embodiment, the aircraft is further configured to send the first Beidou card number of the first Beidou short message module 11 , the flight data, and the aircraft identification to the second Beidou short message module 12 through the first Beidou short message module 11 .

[0031] Optionally, in this embodiment, the computer 20 is also used to receive the flight data through the second Beidou short message module 12, obtain the first Beidou card number and the aircraft identification, and determine the aircraft corresponding to the flight data based on the first Beidou card number and / or the aircraft identification.

[0032] Among them, when the computer 20 does not store the comparison table between each first Beidou card number and each aircraft, the aircraft 10 to which the received flight data belongs is determined according to the received aircraft identifier; when the computer 20 has stored the comparison table between each first Beidou card number and each aircraft and has received the first Beidou card number, the aircraft 10 to which the received flight data belongs is determined according to the received first Beidou card number; when the computer 20 has stored the comparison table between each first Beidou card number and each aircraft but has not received the first Beidou card number, the first Beidou card number corresponding to the current data reception is queried from the Beidou satellite, and the aircraft 10 to which the received flight data belongs is determined based on this.

[0033] Optionally, in this embodiment, the computer 20 is further configured to receive the control instruction sent by the aircraft command and dispatch system 30 and select the aircraft 10 according to the aircraft identification corresponding to the control instruction.

[0034] Optionally, in this embodiment, the computer 20 is also used to, after selecting the aircraft 10, determine the first Beidou card number of the first Beidou short message module 11 corresponding to the aircraft according to the aircraft identifier, and send the control instruction to the first Beidou short message module 11 according to the second Beidou card number of the second Beidou short message module 12 and the ground station 40 identifier of the ground station 40.

[0035] Optionally, in this embodiment, the flight data after data conversion is restored by the computer 20, thereby facilitating accurate identification, import and processing by the aircraft command and dispatch system 30.

[0036] Optionally, in this embodiment, the aircraft 10 is also used to obtain the second Beidou card number and the ground station 40 identifier corresponding to the control instruction when receiving the control instruction through the first Beidou short message module 11, and execute the control instruction according to the second Beidou card number and / or the ground station 40 identifier.

[0037] Optionally, in this embodiment, when the aircraft command and dispatch system 30 needs to forward the control instructions sent by the ground station 40 to the aircraft 10, the control instructions are handed over to the above-mentioned computer 20, and the second Beidou short message module 12 of the computer 20 performs data conversion to meet the communication protocol requirements of the short message.

[0038] Optionally, in this embodiment, the aircraft command and dispatch system 30 is also used to determine the aircraft 10 corresponding to the flight data based on the aircraft identification and / or the first Beidou card number, and display the flight data in the first display area of ​​the aircraft command and dispatch system 30.

[0039] Optionally, in this embodiment, the aircraft command and dispatch system 30 is further configured to provide a data sharing interface, and display the flight data in the second display area of ​​the ground station 40 through the data sharing interface.

[0040] Optionally, in this embodiment, the aircraft command and dispatch system 30 is further configured to provide an instruction forwarding interface, and to forward the control instructions individually, in batches, or conditionally through the instruction forwarding interface.

[0041] Optionally, in this embodiment, the ground station 40 is also used to generate unified deployment instructions for multiple aircraft 10 based on the overall control requirements of multiple aircraft 10, and send the unified deployment instructions to the aircraft command and dispatch system 30, so that the aircraft command and dispatch system 30 decomposes the unified deployment instructions according to the message structure of the Beidou short message to obtain decomposed instructions corresponding to each aircraft 10.
