[0081] A storage medium stores a computer program, which, when executed by a processor, implements various steps of a method for unmanned aerial vehicle inspection of a waste incineration power plant.

[0082] Embodiment 2

[0083] The method for determining the inspection route of a drone provided by the present invention is applied to the inspection of power equipment. Assuming that the target area is a power transmission line, the task requirement is to go from the starting point A to the ending point B, and the inspection equipment is a drone equipped with a camera, a temperature sensor, an air pressure sensor, and a wind speed sensor.

[0084] Step a: Obtain basic geographic information, environmental status data and mission requirements of the target area

[0085] Geographic information of target area: The geographic information of power lines is obtained through remote sensing satellite image data to generate a digital map of the target area. The latitude and longitude coordinates of the starting point A and the ending point B are:

[0086] Starting point A: longitude 120.5384°, latitude 30.3755°

[0087] End point B: longitude 120.5508°, latitude 30.3807°

[0088] Environmental status data: The environmental data is collected in real time through the sensors on the drone. Assume that during the inspection process, the environmental data of the drone’s current location is as follows:

[0089] Wind speed: 6m / s

[0090] Temperature: 28℃

[0091] Air pressure: 1012hPa

[0092] Task requirements: The inspection task requirements include inspection from starting point A to ending point B. The inspection target is the equipment condition on the power transmission line. Ensure that the inspection path includes the maintenance points of each equipment and optimize the flight distance and energy consumption of the path.

[0093] Step b: Use the environmental factor correction model to pre-process the target area and generate a preliminary environmental assessment map

[0094] Environmental correction factor C env The calculation formula is as follows:

[0095] C env =w wind WindSpeed+w temp Temperature+w pressure Pressure

[0096] Assume that the weight coefficient of environmental factors is:

[0097] w wind =0.4

[0098] w temp =0.3

[0099] w pressure =0.3

[0100] Substitute the current environmental data to calculate the correction factor:

[0101] C env =0.4·6+0.3·28+0.3·1012=2.4+8.4+303.6=314.4

[0102] The correction factor C env =314.4 represents the degree of influence of the current environment on the path planning. Each location point of the environmental assessment map will generate a similar correction factor for the environmental adaptability assessment of the target area.

[0103] Step c: Generate a preliminary inspection path using a path planning module based on an adaptive optimization algorithm

[0104] Based on the environmental assessment map and correction factors generated above, an adaptive optimization algorithm (such as particle swarm optimization algorithm) is used for path planning. Assume that the objective function in the path optimization process is:

[0105] ObjectiveFunction=w safety Safety+w efficiency Efficiency+w env ·Env

[0106] ironmentalAdaptation where:

[0107] Safety reflects the safety of the flight path and avoids obstacles;

[0108] Efficiency reflects the time consumption and flight distance of the path;

[0109] EnvironmentalAdaptation reflects the adaptability of the path to the environmental correction factor

[0110] Assume that the weight coefficients are:

[0111] w safety =0.5

[0112] w efficiency =0.3

[0113] w env =0.2

[0114] The inspection path optimized by this objective function can reduce unnecessary flight distance, avoid high wind speed areas, and ensure efficient completion of inspection tasks. The final generated preliminary inspection path is as follows: starting point A (120.5384°, 30.3755°) to the first inspection point (120.5400°, 30.3765°) to the second inspection point (120.5440°, 30.3790°), and so on, and finally arrive at the end point B (120.5508°, 30.3807°)

[0115] Step d: Dynamically adjust the path based on the real-time flight status data of the drone

[0116] During the flight of the drone, the flight status data of the drone is monitored in real time. For example, when the drone flies to inspection point 2, the battery power is 30%. According to the battery power and flight status, the path adjustment amount is automatically calculated.

[0117] Assume that the path adjustment amount is calculated as follows:

[0118]

[0119] Among them, RemainingBattery=30 represents the remaining battery power, and InitialPathLength=10km is the initially calculated flight path length.

[0120]

[0121] Based on the adjustment amount, the route was shortened by 3 kilometers, and it was ensured that the route could still meet the task requirements after adjustment. The final optimized inspection route length was 7 kilometers.

[0122] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
