[0054] Embodiment one

[0055] The mobile microwave energy transmission system mainly consists of a 50kW motor, a transmitting phased array module, a modified vehicle, a photoelectric turntable module, a servo turntable, a positioning and orientation module, a control module, and system supporting cables. The mobile microwave energy transmission system is mobile in the sense that the transmitting phased array module antenna is deployed on the mobile energy transmission device, and the transmitting antenna is matched with a two-dimensional servo turntable, so that the position and the angle of emission of the transmitting end can be changed. Furthermore, for the moving energy receiving end, the direction backtracking technology and the photoelectric tracking technology are used, so that the transmitting end can realize real-time tracking of the moving target. The mobile microwave wireless energy transmission system, as shown in FIG. 1, specifically includes an energy supply module, a transmitting phased array module, a photoelectric turntable module, a control module, a servo turntable module, and a positioning and orientation module. Figure 1

[0056] ​The energy supply module is used for providing microwave energy; the emission phased array module is used for tracking the mobile energy receiving end in real time and emitting microwave; the phased array emission antenna comprises 256 subarrays, and can be further expanded on this basis. By increasing the aperture of the phased array, a super-narrow emission beam is realized, and the near-field space transmission efficiency of the microwave energy flow is greatly improved. The emission assembly is composed of 64 transceiving channels, covers a frequency band of 5.8 GHz, and is physically composed of one power amplification module, 16 power amplification modules and 64 power amplification modules. The functions such as power amplification output of the radio frequency signal are realized.

[0057] The photoelectric turntable module is used for realizing the first alignment with the energy receiving end by using the direction backtracking technology.

[0058] The present application uses the direction backtracking technology to track the mobile target in real time: the guide signal of the receiving antenna is filtered and amplified, and then mixed with the local signal, the mixed output is filtered to obtain an intermediate frequency signal, and the intermediate frequency signal is converted into a digital signal through sampling. The spatial coordinates of the receiving antenna are obtained through a spatial coordinate recognition algorithm to realize the first alignment of the photoelectric turntable module.

[0067]

[0068] Wherein, And The phase difference of each guide signal receiving antenna located on the two arms of the Г-shaped antenna, i.e. x The axis and y The spatial coordinate identification function of the energy receiving end is defined as:

[0069]

[0070] The coordinates of the maximum value are the positions of the dynamic energy receiving end .

[0071] The control module is used for issuing control commands to the photoelectric turntable module, obtaining the measured azimuth and elevation angle of the photoelectric turntable module, and transmitting the azimuth and elevation angle to the servo turntable module;The control module includes a drive controller and an angle sensor;The drive controller is used to issue control commands to the motor and the photoelectric turntable module, so as to generate motor rotation, zoom focusing and field switching actions;The angle sensor is used to measure the azimuth and elevation angle of the photoelectric turntable after the action of the drive controller.

[0072] ​The servo turntable module is used for receiving the azimuth and elevation angle of the optoelectronic turntable module, and tracking the energy receiving end using the optical flow method; the servo turntable module comprises a measurement receiving sub-module, an angle offset obtaining sub-module and an automatic tracking sub-module; the measurement receiving sub-module is used for receiving the azimuth and elevation angle obtained by the angle sensor; the angle offset obtaining sub-module is used for calculating the offset angle of the energy receiving end and the optical axis direction based on the azimuth and elevation angle; and the automatic tracking sub-module is used for tracking the energy receiving end using the optical flow method.

[0073] The positioning and orientation module is used for performing real-time tracking of the energy receiving end using the optoelectronic tracking technology based on the results of the first alignment and the tracking results of the servo turntable, performing the second alignment, and realizing the microwave wireless energy transmission. The system framework of the optoelectronic tracking technology is as shown in Figure 4

[0074] The optoelectronic tracking system has higher precision because the interference on the light propagation is relatively smaller than that on the radio signal propagation, and the optical sensor can provide high-resolution image information. Therefore, it is widely used for tracking moving targets such as aircrafts, missiles, etc.

[0075] The initial control signal of the optoelectronic turntable module is obtained through the direction backtracking system, so that the first alignment with the target can be realized, and the real-time optoelectronic tracking of the moving target can be realized through image recognition, thereby improving the accuracy of the direction backtracking positioning. The optoelectronic turntable module adopts high-definition visible light and uncooled thermal imaging dual-band detection, has the ability of full-area, full-time, full-dimensional discovery, tracking, identification and monitoring of ground and low-altitude targets, and through the optoelectronic equipment tracking system, the further alignment of the transmitting array and the receiving array in the microwave wireless energy transmission system can be automatically completed, and the efficient transmission of microwave wireless energy is realized.

[0076] The optoelectronic equipment mainly comprises a visible light camera (used for detecting the visible light image of the target), a thermal imaging camera (used for obtaining the infrared image of the target), a high-precision turntable, a supporting device and the like. The thermal imaging camera is as shown in Figure 5 ​As shown, the photoelectric observation subsystem composed of high-definition visible light lens and infrared lens can transmit the processed video information through video network coding; the drive controller of the main control system can issue control commands to the photoelectric turntable module driver and photoelectric detection system, so that they drive the corresponding motors to produce rotation, zoom focusing, field switching and other actions; the angle sensor measures the azimuth and elevation angle of the turntable mechanism in real time, and after processing, it communicates with the servo control in the main control system, and the servo system judges and compares, and is linked with the drive control, so that the offset angle of the target and the optical axis pointing can be accurately calculated. The background image processing module receives the video images output by the visible light or thermal image camera, processes the images, and outputs the target miss distance in real time, and then feeds back to the servo control system, and then drives the turntable to automatically track the target in real time, and completes the launch array tracking receiving array. The control command video information, measurement information and state information can be converted into network signals by the coding module for remote transmission and control.

[0077] Wherein, for tracking moving targets, the present application specifically uses the optical flow method in the motion estimation technology. The optical flow method is a computer vision technology for estimating the pixel displacement between adjacent frames in an image sequence, thereby calculating the moving target information in a three-dimensional scene. In the present application, the optical flow method is used to capture the dynamic motion of the energy receiving end. Of course, other algorithms can also be included in the system framework of the present application.

[0078] The working process of the automatic tracking sub-module specifically includes:

[0079] The optical flow method is used to capture the dynamic motion of the energy receiving end, and the optical flow equation is expressed as:

[0082]

[0083] Wherein, represents the pixel coordinates in the local area, n represents the number of pixels in the local area.

[0084] In summary, the mobile target alignment of the application is realized by the direction backtracking system and the photoelectric tracking system, the direction backtracking system realizes the first and rough positioning, and the photoelectric tracking system realizes the further accurate positioning and tracking.

[0085] When the energy receiving end position information is determined, the beam tracking of the application mainly tracks the energy supply through the two-dimensional servo turntable, wherein the transmitting array scans the space: ≤±10°, the mechanical scanning azimuth: 0°~360°, and the mechanical scanning pitch: 0°~90°.

[0086] Although the phased array transmitting antenna can also realize the transmitting beam scanning function, the maximum transmitting efficiency can be achieved when the antenna array is out, so the phased array mainly realizes the transmitting beam change through the theoretical derivation and the phase synthesis method, including the near-field focusing beam, the Bessel beam and the three-dimensional spiral beam, which will improve the near-field transmitting efficiency and be suitable for the new type of applications such as obstacle avoidance and mobile multi-target energy supply.

[0087] For the long-distance energy receiving end, the far-field focusing beam can be used, and the position of each unit on the transmitting antenna array is The phase distribution in the Cartesian coordinate system can be calculated by the following formula:

[0088]

[0089] The free space wave number representing the design frequency is And The pitch angle and the azimuth angle of the far-field focusing beam, respectively, the above angles can be used as the calibration of the direction of the two-dimensional servo turntable.

[0090] For the near-distance single energy receiving end, the near-field focusing beam based on the geometrical optics can be used to realize the higher efficiency of energy transmission. The position of each unit on the transmitting antenna array is The phase distribution in the Cartesian coordinate system can be calculated by the following formula:

[0091]

[0092] In the formula, is the near-field energy receiving focus position vector, is the position vector of each unit on the antenna array, is the free space wave number of the design frequency.

[0093] For the near-distance multiple energy receiving ends on a straight line, the Bessel beam can be used to realize the mutual offset of the radial component of the electric field vector and the superposition of the longitudinal component, so as to further enhance the electric field intensity on the central axis, reduce the scattering characteristics of the original incident wave, and form a transmitting beam with quasi-non-diffractive characteristics. The phase distribution of the transmitting antenna array can be calculated by the following formula:

[0094]

[0095] wherein, is the distance from each element on the transmit antenna array to the center of the array, is the relative permittivity of free space, is the wavelength at the design frequency, is the physical aperture of the transmit antenna, is the maximum propagation distance of the design Bessel beam.
