As the next generation of communication technology, it will provide higher network speed, connection density and intelligent capabilities, greatly promoting the development potential of the digital economy. With the continuous advancement of technology and the expansion of application scenarios, the development of the low-altitude economy has gradually become one of the important directions to promote the development of the next generation of digital economy. The growth of market demand, breakthroughs in technological innovation and the improvement of the industrial chain have promoted the rapid development of the low-altitude economy. The application of low-altitude aircraft (such as drones, electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft, etc.) in logistics distribution, agricultural monitoring, urban air travel and other fields is changing the traditional industrial landscape. At the same time, the improvement of relevant policies and regulations has laid a solid foundation for the healthy and sustainable development of the low-altitude economy. Through the development of low-altitude airspace, the low-altitude economy is becoming an important engine to promote economic growth, improve industrial efficiency and promote technological innovation.

[0003] The development of the low-altitude economy has not only promoted the opening and management of low-altitude airspace, but also spawned the growth of demand for low-altitude flight communications. Especially with the support of 6G networks, the communication demand of low-altitude aircraft is showing explosive growth. Low-altitude aircraft have an extremely urgent need for high-speed and low-latency communications. As one of the key technologies of 6G, the application of ultra-large-scale MIMO technology provides a wealth of scenarios. Ultra-large-scale MIMO technology combined with the application of low-altitude economy can provide more efficient communication support and positioning applications for low-altitude aircraft. Through space division multiplexing technology, ultra-large-scale antenna arrays can effectively improve the communication and positioning capabilities of low-altitude aircraft. However, with the rapid increase in array size, the traditional all-digital hardware architecture faces huge hardware cost pressure, especially in ultra-large-scale MIMO systems, the hardware overhead of transceivers has risen sharply, becoming a major obstacle to its technology popularization and practical application. At the same time, with the increase in array size and the generation of near-field effects, the complexity of user positioning and channel estimation increases, which further increases the challenges of ultra-large-scale MIMO in practical applications. In order to reduce hardware costs and computational complexity while ensuring user positioning and channel estimation accuracy, hybrid beamforming architecture has become a potential solution. Hybrid beamforming technology reduces the number of RF links and the hardware cost of the system through a layered design of signal processing between RF and baseband. At the same time, the dynamic characteristics of low-altitude aircraft make ultra-large-scale MIMO systems face the challenge of time-varying channels. It is necessary to combine advanced technologies such as deep learning and image processing to reduce the computational complexity of time-varying channels and improve spectrum efficiency.

Through technological innovation and reasonable architecture design, it is expected to overcome the existing bottlenecks of hardware cost and computational complexity, promote the widespread deployment of ultra-large-scale MIMO technology in practical applications, and provide strong communication guarantee for the low-altitude economy in the 6G era. Therefore, in view of the demand for ultra-large-scale MIMO in low-altitude economic applications, it is particularly important to study low-cost hardware architecture, hybrid beamforming algorithms, and low-complexity aircraft trajectory and channel tracking solutions. These technologies will help improve the communication and positioning quality of low-altitude aircraft, promote the rapid development of the low-altitude economy, and further promote the application of 6G technology in the low-altitude economy, providing support for future communication needs.

[0023] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be interpreted as limiting the present invention.

[0024] In the present invention, the ultra-large-scale MIMO system in the preset observation area is composed of a base station, an authenticated user aircraft and S scatterer aircraft, such as Figure 1 As shown. Among them, scatterer aircraft include certified aircraft and uncertified aircraft. The base station is equipped with M uniform linear array antennas and adopts a hybrid beamforming architecture. The base station antenna is divided into Q sub-arrays, the number of antennas in each sub-array is M / Q, and the number of pilots is M / 2Q.

[0025] The channel between the base station and the user can be expressed as:

[0026]

[0027] Where L(t) represents the number of paths at time t, that is, the number of aircraft in the observation area, g l (t) represents the path complex gain of the lth path at time t, (z l (t),x l (t)) represents the position of the lth aircraft at time t in the Cartesian coordinate system, a(z l (t),x l (t)) and d(z l (t),x l (t)) represent the steering vector and Doppler frequency shift vector respectively. The mth element in the steering vector can be modeled as:

[0028]

[0029] Among them, k c represents the wave number, D m (z,x) represents the distance between the aircraft and the mth antenna, which can be expressed as:

[0030]

[0031] Where d is the antenna spacing, i.e. half a wavelength. The mth element in the Doppler shift vector can be modeled as:

[0032]

[0033] Among them, v(t) represents the moving speed, Nsf Represents the number of subframes, T sf represents the subframe duration, φ m Represents the angle between the moving direction and the x-axis. The motion model of the aircraft in the time-varying scenario is defined as observing in the near-field area within a certain range, with 1 user aircraft and S scatterer aircraft, some of which can move during the observation time, and the other scatterer aircraft are stationary during the observation time. The paths at adjacent moments are respectively expressed with probability P a , P d 、(1-P a -P d ) There are new paths, annihilation, and the number of paths remains unchanged. The position relationship between the same aircraft at adjacent times is expressed as:

[0034] (z t+1 ,x t+1 )=(z t +v t T s ·sinα0(t+1),x t +v t T s ·cosα0(t+1))

[0035] Among them, α0 represents the angle between the motion direction and the x-axis. During initialization, the motion direction α0 is randomly initialized in the range of [0,2π]. At subsequent moments, the change of the motion direction remains within a certain range, that is, it satisfies

[0036] α l (t) = α l (t-1)(1+δ α (t)γ α,max )

[0037] Among them, γ α,max Represents the maximum range of the difference in motion direction between adjacent moments, δ α (t) represents the rate of change.

[0038] Based on the above background, Figure 3As shown, the present invention proposes a low-altitude aircraft trajectory detection and channel tracking method based on ultra-large-scale MIMO, designs a beamforming matrix that can restore a channel image with obvious characteristics, and restores the channel image from the base station received signal, designs an image-based key point detection network, obtains the position of the aircraft, designs a channel extrapolation scheme, and designs the trajectory tracking of the aircraft based on all time position information, which can achieve low-cost, low-complexity aircraft identification and trajectory tracking, thereby accurately realizing trajectory error detection, signal interruption detection, and intrusion detection of low-altitude aircraft. In addition, it can achieve fast estimation of the uplink channel to ensure the real-time and reliability of the communication link between the user aircraft and the base station. Specifically, when the number of subarrays Q is 2, analog beamforming is designed and used. When the number of subarrays is larger, hybrid beamforming includes analog beamforming and digital beamforming. The received signal can be written as y(t), and the converted received image can be written as y img (t), the key point detection network is used to detect the positions of the user aircraft and the scatterer aircraft from the received image, and the least squares algorithm is used to obtain the path complex gain after optimization. The channel reconstruction can be completed by substituting it into the channel model. The channel tracking module uses the received signal and the estimated position of the aircraft at the previous moment to perform channel extrapolation. Then, based on all the estimated positions, the Hungarian algorithm is used to match the positions at different times and form the motion trajectories of all aircraft. Finally, the base station compares the known trajectory with the estimated trajectory to achieve trajectory error detection, signal interruption detection, and intrusion detection of low-altitude aircraft.

[0039] The specific steps include:

[0040] Step 1, beamforming stage: The ultra-large-scale MIMO system model is as follows Figure 1 As shown, the user aircraft sends a pilot signal to the base station. Under the partially connected molecular array hybrid beamforming architecture, when the number of subarrays Q is 2, the base station designs the simulated beamforming matrix W A is a diagonal matrix, which enables the channel image with obvious propagation path characteristics to be recovered from the received signal; that is,

[0041]

[0042] Q = 2, where are the first M / 4 rows and the last M / 4 rows in the M / 2-point discrete Fourier transform (DFT) matrix. The received signal can be expressed as in

[0043]

[0044] h1(t) and h2(t) are the first M / 2 elements and the last M / 2 elements of channel h, respectively.

[0045] When the number of subarrays Q is greater than 2, hybrid beamforming includes digital beamforming and analog beamforming, so that the channel image with the same quality as when the number of subarrays Q is 2 can be restored from the received signal. The received signal can be expressed as where F B It can be expressed as:

[0046]

[0047] It can be expressed as:

[0048]

[0049] M p,q It can be expressed as:

[0050]

[0051] W B It can be expressed as:

[0052]

[0053] When q is less than or equal to Q / 2, the analog beamforming matrix of the qth subarray can be expressed as:

[0054]

[0055] When q is greater than Q / 2, the analog beamforming matrix of the qth subarray can be expressed as:

[0056]

[0057] in, and They are respectively the first subarray and the second subarray of the simulated beamforming matrix when Q = 2. Under the simulated beamforming algorithm, Q (Q>2) subarrays can obtain the same received pilot signal as Q = 2 subarrays.

[0058] Under the hybrid beamforming matrix architecture, the near-field conversion domain code used can be expressed as in, It is a near-field conversion domain codebook under a fully digital architecture, in which each element is a steering vector at the sampling point position.

[0059] The channel image can be generated by the following formula:

[0060]

[0061] Step 2: Aircraft position estimation phase: Use Figure 2The key point detection network shown is trained on a pre-labeled training set. During testing, the channel image recovered from the base station received signal is input to obtain a rough estimate of the aircraft's position.

[0062] The network first extracts the general features of the image through the skeleton network ResNet-50, and then passes through three identical detection heads consisting of a 3*3 size, 64-channel convolution kernel, a normalization layer, a ReLU activation layer, and a 1*1 size, 2-channel convolution kernel. It then outputs three feature maps of the same length and width, representing the heat map, the coordinate prediction offset feature map, and the target size feature map. The value of each point on the heat map represents the probability that the center point of the target falls on that point. The coordinate prediction offset feature map represents the coordinate offset prediction value of each point on the corresponding heat map, and the target size feature map represents the target size prediction value of each point on the corresponding heat map. When doing inference, the network output will also pass through a score threshold filter, that is, delete the key points with a small probability of heat map prediction, thereby giving the final key point prediction value, that is, after one network inference, a rough estimate of the position of all user aircraft and scatterer aircraft is obtained.

[0063] Step 3, first moment channel estimation phase: based on the aircraft position information obtained in step 2 Design an orthogonal matching pursuit optimization of a small range and fine-grained codebook near each path to obtain accurate location information Use the least squares algorithm to get the path gain Implement channel estimation.

[0064] Step 4: Channel tracking at subsequent moments: based on the estimated position information at the previous moment Determine whether there is a path missed detection based on the received signal. If the residual signal satisfies the following formula, repeat step 3 to perform channel estimation at this moment:

[0065] ∥(a(x,z)) H y res (t)∥ 2 >=σ 2 (ln(M)-ln(-ln(1-P fa )))

[0066]

[0067] Among them, P fa is the false alarm probability. Otherwise, channel tracking can be completed by using orthogonal matching pursuit to perform channel extrapolation within the aircraft position detected at the last moment and the movable range of the aircraft.

[0068] Step 5, aircraft detection position association and trajectory matching stage: Based on the aircraft position information estimated at all times, the Hungarian algorithm is used to match and associate the detected positions at different times. All the positions estimated at the previous and next moments are regarded as two bipartite graphs, and the Hungarian algorithm is used to achieve the maximum matching of the bipartite graphs with a cost of 1-IOU, where IOU is the intersection-union ratio of the detection box. In this way, the optimal matching of the aircraft position estimation at different times is obtained, and the moving trajectory is formed.

[0069] Step 6, aircraft monitoring stage: The base station compares the estimated positions of user aircraft and scatterer aircraft with the authenticated aircraft path set on the base station. For authenticated aircraft, if its position is not detected at a certain moment, it is judged that the signal of the aircraft is interrupted at that moment, and the actual position of the aircraft is determined by the estimated trajectory information, and compared with the preset trajectory to realize trajectory error detection; for unauthenticated aircraft, if the position information detected at certain consecutive moments deviates greatly from all preset trajectories of authenticated aircraft of the base station, the aircraft is judged to be an intruder aircraft.
