[0014] Preferably, it also includes an auxiliary power supply battery, which is used to supply power to the power integrated display, BMS, first controller, second controller, high-voltage box, rotor speed setting device and speed control box.
[0015] The first motor and the second motor are provided with motor speed sensors at their ends, which are connected to the first controller and the second controller via the motor speed sensors;
[0016] The frequency of the three-phase AC power output by the controller is used to adjust the rotor speed in real time. The motor speed sensor feeds back the actual motor speed and position information to the corresponding controller in real time, forming a closed-loop control of the motor speed, thereby controlling the operating conditions of the aircraft.
[0017] The controller uses the rotor speed setting device to set the desired rotor speed as the control target;

[0030] The sum of squares of the minimized residuals between the actual collected value and the polynomial predicted value is minimized, and we can get:
[0031]
[0032] Among them, I(t i ) is the actual observed value, is the polynomial prediction value;
[0033] The minimum residual sum of squares can be obtained from formula (2):
[0034]
[0035] The derivative of the minimum residual sum of squares with respect to the polynomial coefficients is zero:

[0047] Figure 2 The present invention provides a flowchart of the operation of a dual-redundant electric power system suitable for an electric helicopter according to an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0048] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, like numbers in different figures represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all possible embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of systems consistent with certain aspects of the present invention, as detailed in the appended claims.
[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a dual-redundant electric power system suitable for an electric helicopter, including an intelligent control system, a rotor 3, a battery 4, a high-voltage box 5, a gearbox 7, a rotor speed setting device 8, a power integrated display 9 and a BMS; wherein the intelligent control system includes an electric power system 1, an electric power system 2 and a speed control box 6, and the electric power system 1 and the electric power system 2 exchange information via CAN communication; the battery is preferably a power lithium battery;
[0050] The dual-redundant electric power system for a light electric helicopter provided in this embodiment operates as follows: a power lithium battery acts as an energy storage element to provide electrical energy for the aircraft; a high-voltage box 5 controls the output of DC power from the power lithium battery; a controller converts the DC power from the power lithium battery into three-phase AC power, which in turn provides power to two motors. The two coaxially connected motors drive the rotors through a gearbox to generate the thrust required by the aircraft;
[0051] Specifically, the first electric power system includes a first motor 11 and a first controller 12 connected by signals, and the second electric power system includes a second motor 21 and a second controller 22 connected by signals; the first motor 11 and the second motor 21 are coaxially connected; motor speed sensors are provided at the ends of the first motor 11 and the second motor 21, and are connected to the first controller 12 and the second controller 22 by signals through the motor speed sensors;
[0052] This implementation utilizes a dual-redundant electric power system consisting of two electric power systems to power the aircraft. Each electric power system consists of an electric motor and controller. The two electric power systems exchange information via CAN communication, forming an intelligent control system that implements dual backup, coordination, and automatic switching. During normal flight, the two electric motors are installed in a coaxial series configuration, each equipped with its own controller, and jointly provide power to the aircraft based on its actual power requirements.
[0053] The first controller 12 and the second controller 22 are connected to the battery 4 and are used to convert the direct current output by the battery 4 into three-phase alternating current. The battery 4 is used to provide power to the first motor 11 and the second motor 21. The battery 4 provides the three-phase alternating current to the first motor 11 and the second motor 21.
[0054] The rotor speed setting device 8 is installed in the pilot's cabin and is used to adjust the rotor speed. The rotor speed setting device 8 is connected to the speed control box 6 by signal;
[0055] The speed control box 6 is signal-connected to the first controller 12 and the second controller 22 respectively;
[0056] The dual redundant electric power system also includes an auxiliary power supply battery 101, which serves as an auxiliary power source to power the power integrated display 9, BMS, first controller 12, second controller 22, high voltage box 5, rotor speed setting device 8 and speed control box 6.
[0057] Both auxiliary power supply batteries and power lithium batteries are placed in the aircraft's battery compartment. When the battery power is low, the battery needs to be removed from the aircraft's battery compartment and placed on a charging station near the hangar for charging. When the number of charging times reaches the limit or the capacity drops to 80%, the battery is eliminated.
[0058] The power integrated display 9 can monitor the operating status of the dual-redundant electric power system in real time, collect and display the operating status information of the motor, power lithium battery and controller, and provide the pilot with necessary flight information. This flight information is not limited to the motor speed, motor temperature, controller temperature, battery power, power lithium battery temperature, etc. When the electric power system components such as the motor, controller and battery fail, the power integrated display 9 will issue an alarm message for the pilot to use. The pilot can adjust the rotor speed by operating the rotor setting device 8 in the cockpit, thereby controlling the operating status of the aircraft.
[0059] The high-voltage box 5 is mainly composed of a fast fuse and a contactor. The high-voltage box 5 controls the on and off of the contactor according to the received contactor on and off instructions, thereby realizing the control of the DC power supply required by the first controller 12 and the second controller 22; when a short-term overcurrent fault such as a short circuit occurs, the fast fuse can be quickly disconnected, cutting off the DC power supply, protecting the dual redundant electric power system from fire due to short circuit or overcurrent, which endangers the operational safety of the aircraft.
[0060] BMS is used to collect real-time information about the single cells of the power lithium battery. This information is not limited to voltage, current, temperature and power, and monitors the operating status of the single cells in real time. When a single cell or power lithium battery fault is detected, it can be reported in time through the CAN bus, displayed on the power integrated display, and transmitted to the pilot. The pilot will handle it in time according to the fault level to ensure the safe operation of the aircraft.
[0061] The lightweight electric helicopter's dual-redundant electric powertrain utilizes a comprehensive control strategy to ensure precise rotor speed control under various flight conditions. This control approach integrates both speed and torque control, achieving stable, efficient, and safe flight by coordinating the outputs of the dual-redundant electric powertrain.
[0062] First, the controller uses rotor speed setting device 8 to set the desired rotor speed as the control target. A motor speed sensor mounted on the motor end monitors the actual rotor speed in real time and feeds it back to the controller. This feedback is compared with the set speed value, and a PI speed closed-loop control strategy is employed. This allows the controller to precisely track the rotor speed, ensuring stable flight.
[0063] At the same time, the current transformer installed at the three-phase output end of the controller monitors the input current of the corresponding motor in real time. The intelligent control system collects the three-phase current output by the first controller 12 in real time through CAN. Since the output three-phase current contains high-order harmonics and has large fluctuations, the least squares polynomial parameter identification method is used for current balancing and filtering to obtain the actual controller output three-phase current value, and the three-phase current value is converted into the torque set value required by the second controller 22, and input to the second controller 22 through the CAN bus. The second controller 22 receives the torque set value issued by the speed controller box, and the second controller 22 performs torque closed-loop control according to the torque set value; and performs real-time adjustment according to the real-time torque set value, and finally achieves the same output torque of the first controller 12 and the second controller 22, ensuring that the system will not affect the system output efficiency or directly cause a parking failure due to overcurrent of a single electric power system.
[0064] The intelligent control system composed of the speed control box of the present invention can also flexibly adjust the coordination mode of the two electric power systems according to the different flight states and requirements of the aircraft to optimize energy utilization and improve system efficiency. The specific implementation method is as follows:
[0065] The speed control box 6 serves as an intelligent control system. The pilot operates the rotor speed setting device 8 in the cockpit and sends the speed control signal of the output speed setting device to the speed control box 6 by changing the speed control signal of the rotor speed setting device. The speed control box 6 receives the speed instruction of the rotor speed setting device 8 and sends the speed instruction to the first controller 12 through the CAN bus. It determines whether two electric power systems need to run simultaneously according to the actual speed demand. When it is determined that the actual speed demand can be provided by the electric power system composed of the first controller 12 and the first motor 11 alone, the speed control box will issue a shutdown instruction to the second controller 22, so that the electric power system composed of the second controller 22 and the second motor 21 will stop running. Similarly, according to the actual speed demand of the system, the speed control box determines that two electric power systems need to run simultaneously, and the speed control box sends a controller start instruction to the second controller 22, so that the electric power system composed of the second controller 22 and the second motor 21 will stop running. The electric power system composed of the first controller 12 and the second motor 21 is put into operation, and at the same time receives the actual current value of the motor sent by the first controller 12. The actual current value of the first controller 12 is obtained, and after current averaging and filtering, it is converted into an actual torque given value, which is sent to the second controller 22 via the CAN bus as the input given torque value. The electric power system composed of the second controller 22 and the second motor 21 operates according to the given torque value to provide power for the aircraft; the operating status of the electric power system 1 and the electric power system 2 is monitored. When a fault is detected in one of the electric power systems, the faulty electric power system exits operation, and the other electric power system automatically switches to the speed mode and sends a fault instruction to the power integrated display for the pilot to use. After receiving the fault instruction, the pilot quickly selects the nearest location for forced landing to ensure the flight safety of the aircraft. The control flow chart is as follows Figure 2 shown.
[0066] The dual-redundant electric power system of the light electric helicopter precisely coordinates and synchronizes the two electric power systems, with their motors rotating coaxially in series to achieve stable flight and precise maneuverability. This design not only ensures the required thrust for the aircraft but also maintains lateral stability during flight, enhancing the helicopter's safety. An intelligent control system adjusts the output speed and torque of electric power systems 1 and 2 in real time, enabling the pilot to precisely control the flight state and ensuring the aircraft's stability and reliability during all flight phases, including takeoff, cruising, and landing. Furthermore, the redundant design of the dual-redundant electric power system ensures that if one electric power system fails, the other can still provide the power required for an emergency landing, ensuring a safe emergency landing. The dual-redundant electric power system of the light electric helicopter utilizes an integrated control strategy to ensure precise control of the rotor speed under different flight conditions. This control method integrates both speed and torque control, achieving stable, efficient, and safe helicopter flight by coordinating the outputs of the dual-redundant electric power systems.
[0067] For a dual-redundant electric power control system, the three-phase current output by the first controller 12 at different times is collected, and the least squares polynomial parameter identification method is used to obtain the actual output current characteristic curve of the first controller 12. The least squares polynomial parameter identification method is used to establish a mathematical model based on the relationship between the input and output current of the first controller 12, and to find the optimal model parameters from the actual collected data so that the output of the model is closest to the actual observed value. The least squares polynomial parameter identification method:
[0068] Given the controller output current, the controller output current can be expressed by a polynomial, namely:
[0069]
[0070] in: is the current output by the first controller 12 at time t, a i are the coefficients of the polynomial, and n represents the order of the polynomial.
[0071] The sum of squares of the minimized residuals between the actual collected value and the polynomial predicted value is minimized, and we can get:
[0072]
[0073] Among them, I(t i ) is the actual observed value, is the polynomial prediction value;
[0074] The minimum residual sum of squares can be obtained from formula (2):
[0075]
[0076] The derivative of the minimum residual sum of squares with respect to the polynomial coefficients is zero:
[0077]
[0078] By calculating formula (4), we can get a0, a1, a2, ..., a n-1 , a n , thereby obtaining the characteristic curve of the output current of the first controller 12;
[0079] The motor output torque is proportional to the controller output current, and it can be obtained from formula (1)
[0080]
[0081] Among them, k M is the torque coefficient; M(t) is the motor output torque.
[0082] The dual-redundant electric power system of the light electric helicopter proposed in this implementation plan uses two relatively independent electric power systems to provide power for the aircraft. When one electric power system fails and shuts down, the other electric power system can quickly switch to the speed control mode, ensuring that the power of the helicopter power system is not lost, providing power guarantee for the emergency landing of the helicopter, and ensuring the flight safety of the aircraft from the perspective of hardware redundancy.
[0083] As the helicopter's intelligent control system, the speed controller box monitors the helicopter's power requirements in real time under different operating conditions, and balances the power output of the two electric power systems according to the power requirements, ensuring the efficient operation of the helicopter's electric power system, increasing the aircraft's flight time, and reducing the heat generated by the helicopter's electric power system.
[0084] The least squares polynomial parameter identification method is applied to the current balancing control of the electric power system, which ensures the consistency of the output torque of the two electric power systems, improves the overall efficiency of the dual-redundant electric power system of the light electric helicopter, and ensures the flight safety of the helicopter, eliminating the occurrence of shutdown failures due to current imbalance between the two electric power systems.
[0085] The dual-redundant electric power system of a light electric helicopter involved in the present invention is a core component of the aircraft and is composed of multiple key components that work together to achieve propulsion, control, communication, display and fault diagnosis of the aircraft.
[0086] Other embodiments of the present invention will readily occur to those skilled in the art after considering the specification and practicing the invention disclosed herein. This application is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of the present invention that follow the general principles of the invention and include common knowledge or customary techniques in the art not disclosed herein.
