Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a cross-domain unmanned system, and in particular to a sea-air cross-domain unmanned platform formation method based on topology inference. Background Art

[0002] The sea-air cross-domain unmanned platform formation refers to a technical and tactical deployment of multiple unmanned platforms to conduct cross-domain collaborative operations or perform tasks in the marine environment. This formation can include different types of unmanned platforms such as aerial drones, surface unmanned boats, and underwater unmanned submersibles, which work together to complete complex maritime tasks. How to effectively coordinate and control drones, surface boats, and submersibles is the prerequisite and basic guarantee for the sea-air cross-domain unmanned platform to perform complex dynamic tasks.

[0003] Patent document CN114967730A discloses a cross-domain collaborative control system for sea and air unmanned clusters. The document builds a sea and air cross-domain collaborative control system for UAVs and surface vessels, in which the UAVs and surface vessels are positioned through ultra-short baselines, and the speed and expected position of the UAVs and surface vessels at the next moment are estimated based on the positioning information received by the ground station. At the same time, a cross-domain collaborative cluster control algorithm is designed to improve the joint action capability of UAVs and surface vessels. However, this method assumes that the topology of the cluster is stable and unchanged, ignoring the dynamic changes in the formation topology caused by the complex sea and air environment, and cannot guarantee the robustness of the formation topology.

[0004] Patent document CN113037395A discloses a method for collaborative operation of cross-domain unmanned equipment on the water and underwater. The patent constructs a cross-domain unmanned system including drones, surface boats, submersibles, and command and control stations, wherein drone and surface boat sub-networks are constructed through water radio communications, and surface boat and submersible sub-networks are constructed through underwater acoustic communications, so that cross-domain unmanned equipment forms a collaborative network and performs tasks collaboratively under the condition of real-time interaction with the ground command and control center. This method uses neighborhood rules to construct topology, in which each drone, surface boat and submersible needs to communicate with its neighbors. Although the topological connectivity is guaranteed, the energy consumption of the communication network is increased. In summary, facing the complex dynamic environment of sea and air, how to construct a cross-domain unmanned platform formation method with connectivity robustness and energy efficiency under the condition of dynamic topological changes is still a problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0046] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments:

[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, it is a flow chart of a method for sea-air cross-domain unmanned platform formation based on topological inference, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0048] Step 1: Figure 3 As shown in the figure, in the mission target monitoring area, N1 drones are deployed in the air; N2 surface boats are deployed on the surface; and N3 submersibles are deployed underwater, forming a maritime cross-domain unmanned system of drone-surface boat-submersible coordination. UAV-UAV, UAV-surface boat, and surface boat-surface boat communicate using electromagnetic waves as carriers, while surface boat-submersible and submersible-submersible communicate using sound waves.

[0049] Step 2: In T k At the moment, k∈{1,2,…} is the index of the time series. The drone uses radar to collect the position and speed status of other drones within the sensing range, which is expressed as in Represents the drone i within the sensing range respectively UAV (i UAV ∈{1,2,...,N1}) in the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis directions, Indicates drone i UAV The velocity components on the X, Y, and Z axes.

[0050] The drone uses the camera mounted below to collect the position and speed information of the surface boat within the observation range, the surface boat uses the camera to collect the position and speed information of the surface boat within the observation range, and the submersible uses the sonar to collect the position and speed information of the surface boat within the perception range, which can be expressed as in are the surface vessels i within the observation range respectively. USV (i USV ∈{1,2,...,N2}) in the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis directions, Indicates surface boat USVThe components of velocity in the X, Y, and Z directions.

[0051] Surface vessels and submersibles use the sonar they carry to collect information about the position and speed of submersibles within their sensing range, expressed as in For submersible AUV (i AUV ∈{1,2,...,N3}) in the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis directions, Submersible AUV The velocity components on the X, Y, and Z axes.

[0052] Step 3: Based on the collected information, the topological link relationship is mapped by using the distance changes between the drones in the drone formation, between the surface boats in the surface boat formation, and between the submarines in the submarine formation. The topological inference optimization models of the drone formation, surface boat formation, and submarine formation are designed respectively. The three models are consistent in form:

[0053]

[0054] where i∈{i UAV ,i USV ,i AUV}, L i represents the Laplacian matrix, Represents its estimated value. S' i represents the state matrix, represents the velocity estimate, represents the offset vector estimator, for The jth row of I i The identity matrix, 1 i is the unit column vector, Represents the Kronecker product. Based on this, a topology estimator based on inverse reinforcement learning is given:

[0055]

[0056] in, It is an expert strategy that can be obtained by interacting with the environment through drones, surface vessels and submersibles, and selecting the strategy with the best performance. S' i is the velocity state matrix, g(L i ,u)=[Δ 1,i ,Δ 2,i ] T Q i,1 [Δ 1,i ,Δ 2,i ]+u iT R i,1 u i is the cost function, Q i,1 and R i,1 is a positive definite matrix, u i is the learning increment. By solving u i The optimal value of L i The topology inference estimator is used to perform topology estimation on the UAV formation, surface ship formation and submersible formation respectively.

[0057] Step 4: For the water environment, the UAV and the surface boat first establish a neighbor list locally, and generate an angle stiffness matrix based on it, that is,

[0058]

[0059] in, a,b,c∈{i UAV ,i USV}And a≠b≠c,i UAV ∈{1,2,...N1} and i USV ∈{1,2,...N2} represent the UAV and the surface boat respectively, α is the angle of ∠bac, d ab is the direction vector between a and b, l ab is the distance between a and b. and is the orthogonal projection operator. Delete The extra rows in n a is the total number of a and its neighbors. The angles corresponding to the remaining rows are taken as angle constraints. The angle constraints of the UAV and the surface ship are recorded. By analogy, the angle constraints of all UAVs and surface ships can be obtained. Using these edges that constitute the angle constraints, a new global angle rigid topology is formed, that is, the minimum angle rigid topology.

[0060] For underwater environment, the optimal persistent rigid topology is used to optimize the formation topology. First, the distance rigidity matrix is ​​constructed as:

[0061]

[0062] where f,g∈{i USV ,i AUV}, i USV ∈{1,2,...N2} and i AUV ∈{1,2,...N3} represent surface vessels and submersibles respectively. The rows in the topology are sorted from small to large according to the corresponding edge lengths in the topology, and redundant rows are deleted to ensure Based on the remaining edges, a local distance rigid topology for the surface ship and the submersible is constructed. Repeat the above process and use the edges that are reused in these topologies to form a new global rigid topology, that is, the optimal rigid topology. By directing the undirected edges in the optimal rigid topology, the optimal persistent topology can be obtained. The optimal persistent topology needs to meet the condition that each point has no more than 3 directions pointing to its neighbors, that is, the out-degree of each point Satisfies less than or equal to 3.

[0063] Step 5: According to the target situation, design the formation controller based on inverse reinforcement learning for UAV, surface ship and submersible respectively. The three formation controllers have the same form. Specifically, the cost function of UAV, surface ship and submersible is the same as follows:

[0064]

[0065] where i∈{i UAV ,i USV ,i AUV}, X i is the state vector; τ i is the control input; e i are target tracking error and formation error; and is the state weight matrix and the control weight matrix. Furthermore, a heterogeneous network formation control method based on inverse reinforcement learning is designed to seek the optimal control strategy, that is,

[0066]

[0067] in, It is an expert control strategy, which can be obtained by selecting the best strategy among the interactions between drones, surface vessels and submersibles and the environment. i ,Right now

[0068]

[0069] Among them, φ i (t) The cost functions are and control strategy τ i The basis function of and are the critic network vector and the actor network respectively. By finding the optimal strategy Can raise the control level of drones, surface vessels and submersibles to the same level as expert strategies Same level.

[0070] Step 6: In T k+1 At this moment, the topology of the UAV-surface ship-submersible formation is inferred and the topology information is updated, where the Laplace matrix Li , target tracking and formation error e i Provides indicators, which can be expressed as

[0071]

[0072] in, is the local Laplace matrix under the preset topology; ε1 is the threshold value of the topology not changing; ε2 is the threshold value of the formation task completion. If the above indicators are not met, return to step 4.

[0073] The overall block diagram of the above topology inference, optimization and formation control is as follows: Figure 2 shown.

[0074] The embodiments described above are merely descriptions of preferred implementation modes of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by ordinary technicians in this field should all fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
