[0094] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention and the features therein can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0095] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0096] A method for quantitatively assessing collision risk in low-altitude airspace provided in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0097] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a collision risk quantitative assessment method for low-altitude airspace provided in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention is a collision risk assessment framework for cooperative UAVs, non-cooperative UAVs, and manned aircraft, including the following steps:

[0098] Step S0: Obtain low-altitude airspace data and determine the type of intruding aircraft relative to the aircraft. If the intruding aircraft is a cooperative UAV, proceed to step S1; if it is a non-cooperative UAV, proceed to step S2; if it is a manned aircraft, proceed to step S3. Wherein, the aircraft is a UAV.

[0099] Step S1: Determine the timeline for cooperative UAV collision risk assessment and the conflict mitigation measures involved. Build a conflict probability assessment model based on trajectory uncertainty during encounters to quantify the probability of strategic conflict mitigation failure. Build an arrival time estimation model based on heading adjustment to quantify the probability of tactical conflict mitigation failure. Utilize DAA historical failure rates to quantify the probability of airborne collision avoidance failure. Generate and output the collision probability between the aircraft and the cooperative UAV, and execute step S4.

[0100] In step S2, determine the timeline for the collision risk assessment of non-cooperative UAVs and the conflict mitigation measures involved. Construct a dynamic GAS model based on random positions and headings to characterize the probability of procedural conflict mitigation failure. Generate and output the collision probability between the aircraft and the non-cooperative UAV, and proceed to step S4.

[0101] Step S3 determines the timeline for manned aircraft collision risk assessment. A GAS model is established based on the terminal area arrival and departure route structure and operating rules to quantify the probability of procedural conflict mitigation failure. The aforementioned arrival time estimation model based on heading adjustment is combined to quantify the probability of tactical conflict mitigation failure. The collision probability between the aircraft and the manned aircraft is generated and output, and step S4 is executed. The manned aircraft can be, for example, a passenger airliner, transport aircraft, or other manned aircraft.

[0102] Step S4: Based on the received collision probability, the safety situation of the aircraft and the intruding aircraft is evaluated to provide a basis for formulating a safety prevention and control strategy.

[0103] like Figure 1 、 Figures 2a to 2c 、 Figures 3a to 3b 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, step S1 specifically includes the following steps, which are used to calculate the collision probability between the local aircraft and the cooperative UAV.

[0104] Step S1.1: Determine the timeline for the cooperative UAV collision risk assessment and the conflict mitigation measures involved. The conflict mitigation measures include strategic conflict mitigation, tactical conflict mitigation, and airborne collision avoidance of the aircraft relative to the cooperative UAV.

[0105] Step S1.2, construct a conflict probability assessment model during the encounter process based on trajectory uncertainty to quantify the probability of failure of strategic conflict mitigation, which specifically includes the following sub-steps.

[0106] Step S1.2.1 models the collision area between the local aircraft and the cooperative UAV. Referring to the definition of the risk envelope (DAA WellClear) in the Detect-and-Avoid document released by NASA, this implementation method selects a cylinder as the collision area. Taking into account the non-horizontal maneuvers such as climbing and descending during the movement of the UAV and the interference of environmental factors such as wind and air pressure that may be encountered, the collision area is expanded accordingly based on the original size. Combined with the concept of the minimum envelope circle, the collision area between the local aircraft and the cooperative UAV is constructed as follows:

[0107]

[0108] Among them, (L en , H en) are the radius and half height of the collision area, (R a , H a ) are the actual radius and half-height of the aircraft, (σ r ,σ h ) are the radius and height expansion factor of the collision area respectively.

[0109] In step S1.2.2, the uncertainty of the cooperative UAV's trajectory is modeled. The error envelope of the cooperative UAV is approximately elliptical in the horizontal direction, with the two axes of the ellipse along and perpendicular to the track. According to the Performance-Based Navigation (PBN) Manual, the overall positioning error of the cooperative UAV is determined by the total system error (TSE), which is the sum of the navigation system error (NSE), the flight technical error (FTE), and the path definition error (PDE). The path definition error is the difference between the defined path and the desired path and is usually negligible. The flight technical error typically increases along the track with flight time, while the navigation system error is usually constant. Therefore, the error envelope of the cooperative UAV is approximately elliptical in the horizontal direction, with the two axes of the ellipse along and perpendicular to the track.

[0110] Step S1.2.3, establish a coordinate system for calculating the collision probability between the local aircraft and the cooperative UAV. Assume that the position error of the aircraft (i.e., the local aircraft or the cooperative UAV) follows a Gaussian distribution, and assume that the error is independent in the three directions of the aircraft's body coordinate axis, namely σ1, σ2, and σ3. Construct a position distribution model for the local aircraft or the cooperative UAV in the global coordinate system. After defining the prediction time span, the predicted position of the local aircraft or the cooperative UAV in the global coordinate system is The prediction error of the local or cooperative UAV in the body coordinate system is The coordinate transformation matrix is ​​R, and the probability distribution of the position of the local or cooperative UAV in the global coordinate system is obtained:

[0111]

[0112]

[0113] Where P is the spatial distribution of the position of the local or cooperative UAV, θ′ is the heading angle of the UAV (i.e., the local or cooperative UAV) at the prediction time, is the climb angle of the UAV (i.e., own aircraft or cooperative UAV) at the prediction time, Matrix A=diag(σ1, σ2, σ3), diag represents a diagonal matrix, and N3 represents a three-dimensional normal distribution.

[0114] Therefore, the prediction error of the local or cooperative UAV in the global coordinate system can be obtained as: Q = RAR T .

[0115] The construction method of the position probability distribution of the local and cooperative unmanned aerial vehicle in the global coordinate system is the same as the above method. In the calculation of the collision probability of the local and cooperative unmanned aerial vehicle, in this embodiment, the local unmanned aerial vehicle is taken as the reference unmanned aerial vehicle, the invading cooperative unmanned aerial vehicle is taken as the random unmanned aerial vehicle, the prediction error of the reference unmanned aerial vehicle is superimposed on the prediction error of the random unmanned aerial vehicle, the collision region of the random unmanned aerial vehicle is superimposed on the collision region of the reference unmanned aerial vehicle, and the collision coordinate system is constructed with the reference unmanned aerial vehicle as the origin and the random unmanned aerial vehicle as the mass point, as shown in Figure 2a and Figure 2b The relative position of the reference unmanned aerial vehicle and the random unmanned aerial vehicle and the combined error matrix are as follows:

[0116]

[0117] Wherein, P r is the position of the reference unmanned aerial vehicle, P s is the position of the random unmanned aerial vehicle, Q r and Q s are the prediction errors of the reference unmanned aerial vehicle and the random unmanned aerial vehicle in the global coordinate system respectively, ΔP is the relative position of the reference unmanned aerial vehicle and the random unmanned aerial vehicle, and M is the combined error matrix of the reference unmanned aerial vehicle and the random unmanned aerial vehicle.

[0118] Based on the above idea, the instantaneous collision probability of the reference unmanned aerial vehicle and the random unmanned aerial vehicle can be calculated. The main purpose of this model is to calculate the total collision probability of the reference unmanned aerial vehicle and the random unmanned aerial vehicle during the entire encounter process (in a period of time). Therefore, it is assumed that the speed and error of the reference unmanned aerial vehicle and the random unmanned aerial vehicle are constant during the encounter. In this embodiment, in order to make the evaluation result more conservative, the maximum error is modeled. The combined collision region is extended in the direction parallel to the relative speed to form an extended collision region, and the length thereof depends on the encounter time, as shown in Figure 2c The collision probability (the probability of strategic conflict mitigation failure) between the reference unmanned aerial vehicle and the random unmanned aerial vehicle is equal to the integral of the error probability density function in the extended region. Next, the 3-D space will be decoupled by the coordinate transformation idea and the analytical solution of the integral will be determined.

[0119] Step S1.2.4, coordinate system transformation is performed, and the analytical solution of the collision probability in the three-dimensional space is calculated.

[0120] Let p and q represent the positions of the aircraft (i.e., the reference unmanned aerial vehicle or the random unmanned aerial vehicle) in the original coordinate system and the transformed coordinate, respectively. It is assumed that q = Tp, where T is the change matrix to be determined, W represents the inverse matrix of the change matrix T, and W = T -1 , then p = Wq, and the combined error in the change matrix is Based on Cholesky theorem, the combined error matrix M = LL T , where L is a lower triangular matrix, the combined error in the transformation matrix can be expressed as:

[0121]

[0122] where H represents an orthogonal rotation matrix (HH T = I), I represents a unit matrix.

[0123] So far, the combined error has been transformed from the ellipsoid of the original coordinate system to the unit sphere of the new coordinate system (decoupled), and the combined collision area has been transformed from the cylinder of the original coordinate system to the ellipsoid. Since the aircraft maintains horizontal flight during the encounter, it can be assumed that the horizontal and vertical motions are independent, and the above transformation can be decoupled into the collision probabilities in the horizontal and vertical directions by simple scaling, as shown in Figure 3a and Figure 3b Then the embodiment calculates the analytical solutions of the two directions respectively, and due to the independence, the total probability of the two directions is the product of the two.

[0124] As shown in Figure 3a , for the horizontal probability, first, the transformed coordinate system is rotated using the above-mentioned orthogonal rotation matrix H, so that the relative velocity of the two aircraft, the reference UAV and the random UAV, is taken as the positive direction of the x-axis. Assuming that the relative velocity Δv = v r -v s between the two aircraft, the partially transformed velocity in the transformed coordinate system is then

[0125]

[0126] where v r is the speed of the reference UAV, v s is the speed of the random UAV, and Δv x represents the partially transformed velocity matrix in the x-axis component, and Δv y represents the partially transformed velocity matrix in the y-axis component.

[0127] Then the integral expression for calculating the two-dimensional collision probability of the two aircraft and the upper and lower limits of the integral are determined. As shown in Figure 3a , the boundary on the y-axis is the maximum and minimum values of the elliptical boundary, and the integral region on the x-axis is the area swept by the relative velocity within the encounter time. Let Δp c and Δq c represent the boundary distance on the y-axis in the original coordinate system and the transformed coordinate system respectively, then:

[0128]

[0129] where, is the radius of the combined collision region of the host and cooperative UAVs, W = T -1 = LH -1 , if let Δq c = [Δx c , Δy c ], and the discriminant is obtained after squaring the above formula, and let the discriminant be equal to zero, the element Δy c in the vector Δq c can be obtained, and the other element Δx c is related to the encounter time, as shown in the following formula:

[0130]

[0131] where, Δx c represents the integral interval length in the x-axis direction, Δy c represents the integral interval length in the y-axis direction, a, b, c represent the elements of the matrix W T W, which are known quantities. d sr is the distance swept by the relative velocity within the encounter period, Δv is the relative velocity, t encounter is the encounter time, is the radius of the combined collision region of the host and cooperative UAVs. In summary, the conflict probability of the host and cooperative UAVs in the horizontal direction can be represented as:

[0132]

[0133] where, Δy is the distance of the random UAV relative to the reference UAV in the y-axis direction, p(x) and p(y) are the probability density functions of the standard normal distribution decoupled to the x-axis and y-axis, respectively, x represents the function variable of p(x), and y represents the function variable of p(y).

[0134] The conflict probability of the host and cooperative UAVs in the vertical direction can be defined as the integral of the one-dimensional normal distribution in the vertical direction of the combined conflict region:

[0135]

[0136] where, is the half-height of the combined collision region of the host and cooperative UAVs, Δz is the distance of the random UAV relative to the reference UAV in the z-axis direction, p(z) is a one-dimensional normal distribution function, and z represents the function variable of p(z).

[0137] In summary, the conflict probability in the encounter process, i.e., the probability of failure of the strategic conflict mitigation of the host and cooperative UAVs, is:

[0138] Step S1.3, constructing a heading adjustment based arrival time estimation model of the cooperative UAV to quantify the tactical conflict mitigation failure probability, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , comprising the following sub-steps:

[0139] Step S1.3.1, calculating the arrival time of the ownship and the cooperative UAV, i.e. the time from the strategic conflict mitigation failure to the taking of the maneuver action:

[0140]

[0141] wherein D x represents the allowed flight distance, and Δv is the relative speed between the ownship and the cooperative UAV.

[0142] This step S1.3.1 specifically comprises the following steps.

[0143] Step S1.3.1.1, calculating the minimum maneuver distance required for the ownship to make the heading adjustment.

[0144] During the heading adjustment of the ownship, it is assumed that the maximum turning maximum inclination that the ownship can take is The maximum lateral turning overload n can be expressed as The minimum turning radius of the ownship is:

[0145]

[0146] wherein v re is the relative speed between the ownship and the cooperative UAV, g is the gravitational acceleration, and R turn is the minimum turning radius of the ownship.

[0147] As shown in Figure 4 , when the ownship makes a turn with the minimum radius R turn , if the trajectory of the ownship overlaps with the combined collision region, the distance L m between the ownship and the intruding cooperative UAV at this time is the minimum maneuver distance. Assuming that the heading angle of the relative speed Δv between the ownship and the cooperative UAV is θ, and the azimuth angle of the relative speed Δv between the ownship and the cooperative UAV is β, taking the x-axis as the directional reference, the included angle between the heading angle and the azimuth angle of the relative speed is β1 = |β - θ|. Then, the minimum maneuver distance is calculated in a triangle with γ1 as the vertex angle by using the triangle theorem, and the value of γ1 depends on the heading angle θ, if θ > β, then γ1 = π / 2 + β1, if θ ≤ β, then γ1 = π / 2 - β1. In the above triangle, the minimum maneuver distance L m can be obtained by:

[0148]

[0149] where γ1represents the angle of the triangle (as shown in Figure 4 ), is the radius of the combined collision area of the ownship and the cooperative UAV.

[0150] Step S1.3.1.2, the relative position relationship between the ownship and the cooperative UAV is shown in Figure 5 , the relative distance L re between the two aircrafts and the allowed flight distance D x can also be described by the triangle theorem, and the angle γ2of the triangle can be expressed as:

[0151]

[0152] where γ2represents the angle of the triangle (as shown in Figure 5 ), θ is the heading angle of the relative velocity Δv between the ownship and the cooperative UAV, β is the azimuth angle between the two aircrafts, L re is the relative distance between the two aircrafts, L m is the minimum maneuvering distance.

[0153] Then, the allowed flight distance D x , i.e., the distance of the ownship flying along its original trajectory without taking avoidance maneuvers, is calculated using the cosine theorem:

[0154]

[0155] Step S1.3.1.3, the arrival time of the ownship and the cooperative UAV, i.e., the time from the strategic conflict resolution failure to the taking of the maneuvering action, is calculated. The arrival time t ap between the two aircrafts can be obtained by the arrival distance, i.e., the allowed flight distance D x and the relative velocity:

[0156]

[0157] where Δv is the relative velocity between the ownship and the cooperative UAV.

[0158] Step S1.3.2, a model for calculating the probability of the tactical conflict resolution failure of the ownship relative to the cooperative UAV is established.

[0159] The reason for the tactical conflict resolution failure: due to the delay, the time when the tactical conflict resolution measure takes effect in the actual flight is greater than the time when the separation loss occurs between the two aircrafts, i.e., the aircrafts have reached the separation loss state before completing the avoidance action. Based on the above idea, it is assumed that the delay time obeys the normal distribution, and its distribution function is The time of arrival of both aircraft, i.e. the time between the failure of the strategic conflict resolution and the taking of the maneuvering action, is defined as t ap If the tactical conflict resolution fails, i.e. the delay time is greater than t ap Otherwise, the tactical conflict resolution is effective and no collision risk is considered. Therefore, the probability of failure of the tactical conflict resolution can be expressed as:

[0160]

[0161] wherein represents the probability of failure of the tactical conflict resolution of the own aircraft with respect to the cooperative UAV.

[0162] Step S1.4, the failure rate of the DAA is calculated based on the historical data statistics, to obtain the failure probability of the onboard collision avoidance of the own aircraft with respect to the cooperative UAV

[0163] Step S1.5, the product of the failure probabilities of the above-mentioned resolution measures is obtained, to obtain the collision probability of the own aircraft with the cooperative UAV:

[0164]

[0165] wherein are the failure probabilities of the strategic conflict resolution, the tactical conflict resolution and the onboard collision avoidance of the own aircraft with respect to the cooperative UAV, respectively. The obtained failure probability is output and step S4 is executed.

[0166] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 , step S2 is to evaluate the collision probability of the own aircraft with the non-cooperative UAV. For the non-cooperative UAV, it is possible to appear accidentally during the execution of the task of the own aircraft. Since its flight plan and trajectory are not easy to determine, unlike the above numerical calculation method, a dynamic GAS model based on random position and heading is constructed to calculate the collision probability of the non-cooperative UAV. Specifically, the following steps are included:

[0167] Step S2.1, the timeline for the collision risk assessment of the non-cooperative UAV is determined, and the conflict resolution measures involved are determined. The conflict resolution measures include the procedural resolution of the own aircraft with respect to the non-cooperative UAV.

[0168] Step S2.2, it is assumed that the non-cooperative UAV is similar to the gas molecules randomly distributed in the task airspace, with a random horizontal speed and no tendency to climb or descend. The area swept by the own aircraft within a certain time is regarded as a rectangle as a combined collision area, and the non-cooperative UAV overlapping with the combined collision area is the invader that may have a conflict.

[0169] Step S2.3, calculate the swept volume of the host vehicle. Assume is the radius and half-height of the combined collision region of the host vehicle and the non-cooperative UAV, Δv is the relative velocity between the host vehicle and the non-cooperative UAV, t mission is the time of mission execution. Due to the effect of relative velocity, the swept volume of the host vehicle relative to different intruders will be different, so this model is a dynamic GAS model, and the volume of the swept volume is:

[0170]

[0171] Step S2.4, determine whether there is a collision risk for a non-cooperative UAV. Determine whether there is a conflict between the host vehicle and the non-cooperative UAV, when the host vehicle and the non-cooperative UAV overlap during the execution of the mission, i.e. the non-cooperative UAV is located in the swept volume of the host vehicle, it is considered that there is a conflict risk between the two vehicles, let Otherwise, let The logic of determining whether there is a conflict between the host vehicle and the non-cooperative UAV is shown in the following formula:

[0172]

[0173] where (x′ j , y′ j , z′ j ) represents the spatial position of the jth non-cooperative UAV, represents the swept volume of the host vehicle relative to the jth non-cooperative UAV.

[0174] Step S2.5, calculate the collision risk of the non-cooperative UAV in the airspace, i.e. the program mitigation failure probability. Based on historical data, estimate the number of non-cooperative UAVs that may appear during mission execution, let N uav represent, then the program mitigation failure probability of the non-cooperative UAV can be expressed as:

[0175]

[0176] Step S2.6, the program mitigation failure probability of the host vehicle relative to the non-cooperative UAV is the collision probability of the host vehicle and the non-cooperative UAV:

[0177]

[0178] where, is the probability of program conflict mitigation failure for non-cooperative UAVs.

[0179] Step S3 is to evaluate the collision probability of the host vehicle and manned aircraft, which specifically includes a dynamic GAS model based on random position and heading, as follows: Figure 1 ​、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 as shown, comprising the following steps:

[0180] Step S3.1, determine the timeline of the risk assessment of the manned-unmanned aircraft collision and the involved conflict resolution measures. The conflict resolution measures include the program resolution of the unmanned aircraft relative to the manned aircraft and the tactical conflict resolution.

[0181] Step S3.2, determine the area swept by the unmanned aircraft relative to the manned aircraft. Assuming is the radius and half-height of the area swept by the unmanned aircraft and the manned aircraft combination, t mission is the time of task execution, and Δv is the relative speed between the unmanned aircraft and the manned aircraft. For a certain runway of the airport, the take-off and landing heading is fixed, but the difference in the speed of the manned aircraft leads to different relative speeds, so the swept area is different, and the corresponding calculation formula is:

[0182]

[0183] Step S3.3, calculate the probability of the take-off and landing flight falling into the area swept by the unmanned aircraft relative to the manned aircraft.

[0184] Assuming that the position of the take-off and landing route of the manned aircraft is uniformly distributed, the length of the leg in the swept area is L sw , and the length of the overall take-off and landing route is L tol , then the probability of the manned aircraft being exactly in the swept area is L sw / L tol .

[0185] Step S3.4, for the entire airport terminal area, calculate the collision probability of the unmanned aircraft with the manned aircraft during the task execution, i.e., the probability of failure of the program resolution. Assuming that there are M' take-off and landing routes in the entire airport terminal area during the task process of the unmanned aircraft, then the probability of failure of the program resolution of the unmanned aircraft relative to the manned aircraft is:

[0186]

[0187] wherein, is the length swept by the unmanned aircraft relative to the mth take-off and landing route, is the total length of the mth take-off and landing route.

[0188] Step S3.5, the probability of failure of the tactical conflict resolution of the unmanned aircraft relative to the manned aircraft can be obtained based on the arrival time estimation model of the heading adjustment in step S1.3 above:

[0189]

[0190] wherein, denotes a normal distribution function, tap P represents the time between program mitigation failure and taking a maneuver action. This is not expanded here.

[0191] Step S3.6, the collision probability of the manned aircraft is the product of the program mitigation failure probability of the unmanned aircraft relative to the manned aircraft and the tactical conflict mitigation failure probability, and the collision probability of the unmanned aircraft and the manned aircraft is:

[0192]

[0193] Wherein, The obtained collision probability of the unmanned aircraft and the manned aircraft is output, and step S4 is performed.

A collision risk assessment module of a manned aircraft, program code is written based on the above model, and the program mitigation failure probability and the tactical conflict mitigation failure probability are calculated, which are regarded as the overall collision risk.
