Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of ship obstacle avoidance technology, and in particular to a ship obstacle avoidance path planning system and planning method. Background Technology

[0002] Whether in the exploitation of marine resources or in maritime transport, ships must navigate the sea to complete their tasks. When ships are sailing on the water, collisions with other vessels, various fixed or floating objects are possible, potentially leading to personal injury or property damage. Therefore, collision avoidance and obstacle avoidance have become extremely important aspects of a ship's mission.

[0003] Ship obstacle avoidance control involves using various sensory devices on the ship to perform various avoidance maneuvers against external obstacles that impede its direction of movement, and then continuing its previous actions. In recent years, the application of lidar in ship navigation has been increasing. Compared with other distance sensors, lidar can simultaneously consider both accuracy and speed requirements, which is particularly suitable for the marine field.

[0004] However, when the laser beam in lidar propagates in water, the water absorbs and scatters the laser, which reduces the laser energy and detection range. At the same time, the diameter of the laser beam is small, making it difficult to cover the entire water area. For reefs in wide waters, it is impossible to identify the complete edge of the reef and form a complete safety range for the reef. In addition, it cannot provide an effective obstacle avoidance route when ships are navigating.

[0005] Therefore, there is a need to provide a ship obstacle avoidance path planning system with high reef recognition, high degree of safety range establishment, and clear obstacle avoidance routes to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0032] S53. Determine if D1 is less than the safe distance from the reef, D0. If D1 ≥ D0, then the steering parameters are θ1 and R1. If D1 < D0, then continue to adjust the steering parameters to meet the safe distance requirement: adjust the steering angle θ2 = θ1 + Δθ, and adjust the steering radius R2 = V. 2 / F·tanθ2, correct the turning time T2 and distance D2, repeat the judgment and correction steps until D2≥D0.

[0051] The steering path planning module also includes a data transmission unit, which transmits the safe steering angle data, the safe steering speed data, and the safe steering radius data to the ship for steering operation when the ship is within the communication range of the path planning device.

[0058] The contour recognition unit is used to perform multi-angle contour recognition on the reefs identified by the sonar sensor to generate several contour recognition data. The three-dimensional image unit is used to construct a three-dimensional image of the reef based on the several contour recognition data. The safety range unit is used to divide the safety range of the reef based on the ship's heading data and ship speed data.

[0059] The reef monitoring module can monitor the position and shape changes of underwater reefs in real time. Sonar sensor technology enables underwater three-dimensional imaging, obtaining more accurate and detailed position data of the reefs. At the same time, by combining the contour recognition unit and the three-dimensional image unit, a three-dimensional image model of the reef can be generated.

[0060] Figure 5 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the anchoring structure of the present invention; the anchoring structure includes: a fixed base, a plurality of anchoring cables disposed on one side of the fixed base, and an anchor hook disposed at one end of the anchoring cables.

[0061] This invention also provides a planning method for a ship obstacle avoidance path planning system. Figure 6 This is a flowchart of the path planning method of the present invention, which includes the following steps:

[0062] S1. The edge of the reef is scanned by the reef monitoring module to construct a three-dimensional image of the reef;

[0063] S2. The wind direction and wind speed at the reef are monitored in real time through the wind monitoring module to obtain wind speed and wind direction data.

[0064] S3. The wave monitoring module monitors the direction and speed of the waves and the tidal rise in real time to obtain wave direction data, wave speed data and tidal rise data.

[0065] S4. When the ship is within the communication range of the monitoring device, send the ship's heading data and speed data to the turning path planning module to obtain the safe distance data from the reef.

[0066] S5. Calculate the safe steering angle data, safe steering speed data, and safe steering radius data.

[0067] It should be noted that obtaining the reef safety distance data in S4 specifically includes the following steps:

[0068] S41. Obtain ship speed V data and heading angle α data;

[0069] S42. Calculate the horizontal component of the ship's speed, V. x V x =V*cosα;

[0071] S44. The calculated safe distance from the reef is D0 = V. x *T+0.5*V y *T 2 , where T is the avoidance time, T≥5min.

[0072] Figure 7 This is a flowchart of the calculation process for safe steering data according to the present invention; in step S5, safe steering angle data, safe steering speed data, and safe steering radius data are calculated, and the specific steps are as follows:

[0073] S51. Calculate the wind thrust F based on wind speed and wind direction data. w and its line of action direction γ w The wave thrust F is calculated based on wave direction and velocity data. s and its line of action direction γ s ; Calculate the thrust F generated by the tides based on tidal rise data. t and its line of action direction γ t Thus, the total external force F and the direction of the total line of action γ are obtained;

[0074] S52. Calculate the turning radius R1 = V of the ship at the initial turning angle θ1. 2 / F·tanθ1, calculate the time required for the ship to turn at an angle of θ1, T1=R1 / V, and calculate the distance traveled by the ship in time T1, D1=V*T1;

[0075] S53. Determine if D1 is less than the safe distance from the reef, D0. If D1 ≥ D0, then the steering parameters are θ1 and R1. If D1 < D0, then continue to adjust the steering parameters to meet the safe distance requirement: adjust the steering angle θ2 = θ1 + Δθ, and adjust the steering radius R2 = V. 2 / F·tanθ2, correct the turning time T2 and distance D2, repeat the judgment and correction steps until D2≥D0.

[0076] By using the turning path planning module in conjunction with other modules and monitoring the surrounding sea wave environment and wind conditions, the optimal turning parameters for avoiding the reef can be accurately calculated, effectively preventing collisions between ships and reefs. The module can also assess the ship's wind and wave resistance under different planned paths, select the path with lower energy consumption, and reduce the ship's energy consumption rate during navigation.

[0077] Example 1

[0078] S1. The reef monitoring module scans the edge of the reef to construct a three-dimensional image of the reef. The reef is an irregular shape, 10 meters long and 5 meters wide.

[0079] S2. Environmental data is obtained through the monitoring module: wind speed 5m / s, wind direction 90 degrees; ocean wave direction 180 degrees, current speed 1m / s, tidal rise 1m.

[0080] S3. The wave monitoring module monitors the direction and speed of the waves and the tidal rise in real time, and obtains wave direction data, wave speed data and tidal rise data.

[0081] S4. When the ship is within the communication range of the monitoring device, send the ship's heading data and speed data to the turning path planning module. The ship's speed is 20 knots (about 10 m / s) and the heading angle α is 45 degrees.

[0082] Calculate the horizontal component of the ship's speed:

[0083] V x =V*cosα=10cos45°=7.07m / s, V y =V*sinα=10sin45°=7.07m / s.

[0084] The avoidance time T is set to 5 minutes. The safe distance from the reef is calculated using the formula:

[0085] D0=V x *T+0.5*V y *T 2 =7.07*5+0.5*7.07*5 2 =123m.

[0086] S5. Calculate external force action according to environmental data:

[0087] Wind thrust F w =0.5*wind speed 2 *area=0.5*5 2 *100=125N, line of action direction γ w =90 degrees;

[0088] Wave thrust F s =wave flow velocity 2 *area=1 2 *100=100N, line of action direction γ s =180 degrees.

[0089] Tidal thrust Ft=tidal rise area=1*100=100N, line of action direction γt=180 degrees.

[0090] Then the total external force

[0091] Total line of action direction γ=arctan((F s +F t ) / F w )=arctan((100+100) / 125)=63.4 degrees.

[0092] Set the initial turning angle θ1=30 degrees, calculate the turning radius R1=V 2 / F·tanθ1=10 2 / 250*tan30°=120m; calculate the turning time T1=R1 / V=120 / 10=12s;

[0093] Calculate the navigation distance D1=V*T1=10*12=120m<D0, which does not meet the safety distance requirement.

[0094] Then the corrected turning angle θ2=θ1+Δθ=30+5=35 degrees, calculate the turning radius R2=V 2 / F·tanθ2=10 2 / 250*tan35°=144m; calculate the turning time T2=R2 / V=144 / 10=14.4s;

[0095] The calculated navigation distance D2 = V * T2 = 10 * 14.4 = 144m > D0, which meets the safety distance requirement.

[0096] Comparative Example 1

[0097] During navigation, a vessel's lidar system begins scanning the navigation channel. The lidar uses near-infrared laser with a wavelength of 905 nm, an emission pulse frequency of 10 kHz, and a maximum effective range of 200 meters.

[0098] Within a 200-meter range, the lidar successfully detected a 20-meter-long, 10-meter-wide reef obstacle 100 meters ahead. Based on the reef's location and size, the radar system calculated that the ship would collide with the reef if it continued on its original course.

[0099] The system then sent a avoidance command to the ship's autopilot system. The command was: turn the bow 15 degrees to the right and reduce the speed to 80% of its original speed. Upon receiving the command, the autopilot system immediately executed the turning and deceleration maneuvers.

[0100] By maneuvering with a 15-degree turn and deceleration, the vessel successfully avoided the reef obstacle. The radar system continued to monitor the channel, searching for other potential obstacles, and constantly adjusted the channel plan and vessel maneuvers based on real-time conditions to ensure safe navigation.

[0101] Experimental Example 1

[0102] This experiment uses Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 to conduct obstacle avoidance tests in the same sea area, and the following results are shown in Table 1.

[0103] Table 1

[0104] Reef identification completeness (%) 96 87 Identify usage duration (s) 25 57 Global path length (m) 734.8 892.3 Local path length (m) 229.1 205.3 Turnaround decision time (s) 8.7 16.5 Accuracy of safe distance range (m) 4.5 7.5

[0105] As shown in the table above, when using the proposed planning method and the traditional planning method to conduct obstacle avoidance tests in the same sea area, the proposed planning method uses sonar in conjunction with a three-dimensional imaging unit to identify reefs from multiple directions. The resulting reef images are more complete than those obtained by the traditional planning method, which only uses lidar to detect reefs. Furthermore, the proposed planning method takes less time to identify reefs, saving identification time during navigation.

[0106] Meanwhile, the global path length based on this planning method is relatively short, which can save fuel consumption, and the accuracy of the safe distance range is controlled within 5m, which improves the accuracy of steering and ensures the precision of path planning.

[0107] Based on the preferred embodiments of the present invention described above, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the inventive concept. The technical scope of this invention is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.

The planning method for a ship obstacle avoidance path planning system according to claim 8, characterized in that: In step S5, the safe steering angle data, safe steering speed data, and safe steering radius data are calculated. The specific steps are as follows: S51. Calculate the wind thrust F based on wind speed and wind direction data. w and its line of action direction γ w The wave thrust F is calculated based on wave direction and velocity data. s and its line of action direction γ s ; Calculate the thrust F generated by the tides based on tidal rise data. t and its line of action direction γ t Thus, the total external force F and the direction of the total line of action γ are obtained; S52. Calculate the turning radius R1 = V of the ship at the initial turning angle θ1. 2 / F·tanθ1, calculate the time required for the ship to turn at an angle of θ1, T1=R1 / V, and calculate the distance traveled by the ship in time T1, D1=V*T1; S53. Determine if D1 is less than the safe distance D0 from the reef. If D1 ≥ D0, then the steering parameters are θ1 and R1. If D1 < D0, then continue to adjust the steering parameters to meet the safe distance requirement: adjust the steering angle θ2 = θ1 + Δθ, and adjust the steering radius R2 = V. 2 / F·tanθ2, correct the turning time T2 and distance D2, repeat the judgment and correction steps until D2≥D0.
