Although traditional mechanized operations have significantly improved agricultural production efficiency, they are also accompanied by problems such as soil compaction and uneven distribution of crop residues, posing threats to land quality and long-term agricultural production. A baler is an important piece of equipment in agricultural production, and the reasonable planning of its operation path is of great significance for reducing soil compaction, optimizing operation efficiency, and realizing the resource utilization of straw.

In addition, with the advancement of large-scale farmland management, the number of irregular fields is gradually increasing, and the existing path planning methods are difficult to meet the operation requirements of complex fields. Therefore, how to dynamically optimize the operation path of the baler based on field characteristics and crop distribution, reduce soil compaction, and improve operation efficiency has become one of the important research directions in the development of agricultural mechanization.

[0045] Figure 2 is the flow chart of the artificial bee colony algorithm. Detailed Embodiments

[0046] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0048] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but it is not limited to the present invention.

[0049] Specific Embodiment 1: The following will be described in conjunction with Figure 1 and Figure 2 to illustrate this embodiment. The method for in-field path planning of a baler for soil mechanical compaction reduction described in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0050] Step 1: Obtain the in-field ridge and furrow information and boundary point information of the irregular field.

[0051] Step 2: Set the path planning rules.

[0052] Step 3: Use the artificial bee colony algorithm to perform path planning for the harvester and baler on the irregular field. This step includes:

[0053] Step 1: Nectar source coding and initialization;

[0054] The nectar source coding represents a scheduling scheme, including the starting ridge sequences of the harvester and the baler, and initializes the path planning rules.

[0055] Step 2: The fitness function aims to minimize the total compaction times, and at the same time considers the number of times of overlapping working areas and the number of times the baler starts processing before the harvester finishes as penalty terms.

[0056] Step 3: The leading bee search adopts neighborhood generation strategies such as direction adjustment, path exchange, insertion, or deletion, verifies the constraints after generating a new solution, and retains the better solution.

[0057] Step 4: The follower bee search selects the nectar source according to probability and executes the neighborhood search strategy of the leading bee.

[0058] Step 5: In the scout bee stage, the nectar sources that have not been improved for a long time are regenerated, and the paths of the harvester and the baler are randomly reset to ensure starting from the middle and meeting the constraint conditions.

[0059] Step 6: Constraint handling and repair include spatial constraint adjustment, time constraint delay, and redundant operation deletion of compaction constraints.

[0060] Step 7, end when the termination condition is reached, and output the optimal solution. The termination condition is reaching the maximum number of iterations or fitness convergence.

[0061] Step 1: Apply GNSS technology to obtain the in-field ridge and furrow information and boundary point information of the irregular field block, including: the total number of ridges n in the field block, the length Li of the i-th ridge, i , the ridge spacing W, and the total area A of the field block. The total area A is calculated according to the formula . The field block targeted by the present invention is irregular in shape, and the length of each ridge can be different.

[0062] The path planning rules in Step 2 include the settings of the starting ridge, working time sequence, constraint conditions, and turning paths:

[0063] Starting ridge: the initial position of the harvester ridge, the initial position of the baler ridge; both start from the middle ridge. The number of ridges crossed by the harvester and the baler can be the same or different.

[0064] Working time sequence: The harvester starts from ridge and gradually expands to the left or right until all ridges are covered; the path of the baler lags behind the harvester. After the harvester completes the work of one ridge, the baler starts to work; the time ti of the baler to complete the i-th ridge b (i) and the time ti of the harvester to complete the i-th ridge h (i) satisfy the condition ti b (i) ≥ ti h (i), Eh is the efficiency of the harvester, E b is the efficiency of the straw baler;

[0065] Constraint conditions: satisfy the constraint condition that each ridge can be compacted at most once. In the formula, T is the total time required to complete the harvesting and baling of the plot, xi i (t) = 1 indicates that the i-th ridge is compacted, i = 1, 2,..., n, xi i (t) = 0 indicates that it is not compacted, t = {ti p} ∪ {ti q}; when the harvester and the baler work simultaneously, they satisfy the non-overlapping working ridge constraint condition;

[0066] In order to minimize the number of compactions, it is limited that the number of compactions of the ridge within the entire operation range is less than or equal to 1. The moment when the harvester starts the p-th work at each field head is ti p , and the set of all operation start moments of the harvester is {ti p}, similarly, the set of all operation start moments of the baler is {ti q} The union of the two represents the starting moment when all machines start working in the field, and based on this, it is determined whether the i-th ridge is pressed.

[0067] Turning path: Every time a job is completed and the machine reaches the end of the field, it needs to turn to start the next job. If there is enough space at the end of the field, Ackermann turning is selected; if there is insufficient space at the end of the field: in-situ turning is selected.

[0068] Ackermann turning is a turning method with continuous curvature during driving. When the machine turns, the front and rear wheels travel along different arcs to ensure that the rear wheel is tangent to the front wheel's trajectory. It is applicable to relatively wide field end spaces: the steering center of the machine is O, and the turning radius of the left front wheel is R left , and the right side is R right , the wheelbase of the machine (the distance between the front and rear wheels) is L, the track width of the front wheels (the distance between the left and right wheels) is W, and the distances from the steering center to the two front wheels satisfy The turning radius of the rear wheel is Define the steering angle of the left front wheel as θ left , and the right side is θ right , satisfying The total path length of the turn is determined by the arc lengths of the left and right wheels L turn =R center ·Δθ, where Δθ is the turning angle, and the turning radius must be greater than the minimum turning radius R min , to avoid excessive turning of the vehicle body R center ≥R min . In-situ turning is applicable to the situation where there is insufficient space at the field head. The machine advances with one side's wheels and retreats with the other side's wheels, forming a turning method that rotates around its own center: the center of the machine is O, the left wheel advances at a speed of v left , and the right wheel advances at a speed of v right , the track width of the machine is W, and the speeds of the two sides' wheels during turning satisfy v left =-v right , that is, the speed directions of the two sides' wheels are opposite and the magnitudes are equal. The angular velocity ω of the machine around the center O is The time t required for the machine to complete a turn of Δθ is The path length is Turning method selection rule. If there is enough space at the end of the field, Ackermann turning is selected. The width D of the field head space field satisfies Advantages: low energy consumption and less compaction of the field. If there is insufficient space at the end of the field: in-situ turning is selected. The width D of the field head space field does not meet the Ackermann turning condition It is applicable to narrow field head spaces and has high flexibility.

[0069] Step 3: Use the artificial bee colony algorithm (ABC) to solve the regular path. Specifically, it includes:

[0070] Step 1, nectar source coding and initialization;

[0071] The nectar source coding is as follows: Each nectar source X x represents a path planning and scheduling scheme, where x = 1, 2,..., NP, and NP is the number of nectar sources. The path planning and scheduling scheme includes the harvester starting ridge sequence S h = [s h (t1), s h (t2),..., s h (t h )] and the baler starting ridge sequence S b = [s b (t1), s b (t2),..., s b (t b )], where sh(tp), p = 1, 2,..., h represents the starting ridge of the p-th harvester operation, h represents the total number of harvester operations, and t p represents the starting time of the p-th harvester operation; sb(tq), q = 1, 2,..., b represents the starting ridge of the q-th baler operation, and b is the total number of baler operations, and t q represents the starting time of the q-th baler operation;

[0072] The working range Work h (t p ) of the harvester starting ridge sequence Sh is {s h (t p ), s h (t p ) + 1,..., s h (t p ) + w h -1 ≤ n}, where w h is the number of ridges across which the harvester operates;

[0073] The working range Work b (t q ) of the baler starting ridge sequence Sb is {s b (t q ), s b (t q ) + 1,..., s b (t q ) + w b -1 ≤ n}, where w b is the number of ridges across which the baler operates;

[0074] And it satisfies

[0075] Nectar source initialization: The harvester starts from Start, gradually expand to the left or right to cover all ridges; the initial position of the baler The path lags behind the harvester and avoids overlap; generate a feasible solution under the setting rules as the initial solution.

[0076] Step 2: The fitness function aims to minimize the total number of compactions, and at the same time considers the number of overlaps in the working area and the number of times the baler starts processing before the harvester finishes as penalty terms;

[0077] The fitness function fitness(X x ) is:

[0078]

[0079] In the formula,

[0080] Z is the objective function, In the formula, OverlapPenalty is the number of overlaps in the working area; TimePenalty is the number of times the baler starts processing before the harvester finishes, α is the working area overlap penalty coefficient, and β is the penalty coefficient for the baler starting processing before the harvester finishes.

[0081] Step 3: The leading bee search adopts a neighborhood generation strategy of direction adjustment, path exchange, insertion or deletion. After generating a new solution, verify the constraints and retain the better solution;

[0082] The direction adjustment is: randomly select a certain time step t p or t q Modify s h (t p ) or s b (t q ) to shift the starting ridge 1 ridge to the left or right to ensure the effectiveness of the working range;

[0083] The path exchange is: exchange the starting ridge order of two time steps to optimize the coverage efficiency;

[0084] Insertion / deletion is: add or remove time steps to shorten the total time.

[0085] Step 4: The follower bee search selects the nectar source according to the probability and executes the neighborhood search strategy of the leading bee;

[0086] The nectar source is selected according to the probability for, in the formula, p x is the selection probability of the xth nectar source by the follower bee, fitness(X x ) and fitness(X y ) represent the fitness values of the xth nectar source and the yth nectar source, x, y = 1, 2,..., NP, and x ≠ y.

[0087] Step 5: During the scouting bee stage, the nectar sources that have not been improved for a long time are regenerated, and the paths of the harvester and baler are randomly reset to ensure starting from the middle and meeting the constraints.

[0088] Step 6: Constraint handling and repair include spatial constraint adjustment, time constraint delay, and redundant operation deletion for compaction constraints.

[0089] Constraint handling and repair include spatial constraints, time constraints, and compaction constraints:

[0090] Spatial constraint: If Adjust s b (t q ) to the nearest non-overlapping position;

[0091] Time constraint. If t b (i) < t h (i), delay the processing time step of the baler;

[0092] Compaction constraint: If a ridge is compacted multiple times, delete the redundant operations.

[0093] Step 7: End when the termination condition is reached, and output the optimal solution. The termination condition is reaching the maximum number of iterations or fitness convergence.

[0094] The termination condition is: reaching the maximum number of iterations H or fitness convergence, and the fitness convergence means that the optimal solution has not been improved for K consecutive times.

[0095] The optimal solution generated by using the method of the present invention is the final path, and the harvester and baler work according to this scheme to achieve the optimal effect.
