Specific Embodiments

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Currently, a radio altimeter obtains the true height of an aircraft relative to the ground by receiving the frequency change of a signal. However, under the influence of environmental interference, the signal-to-noise ratio of the received echo signal may be relatively low, resulting in invalid output of altimeter data, such as data loss or invalid data.

[0021] Based on this, a data prediction method, device, equipment, and storage medium for a radio altimeter provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Considering that the measurement signal of the altimeter consists of two parts: the altitude measurement signal from the movement of the aircraft and the altitude measurement signal from the terrain undulation, the embodiment of the present invention specifically provides a data prediction method for a radio altimeter based on multi-source auxiliary information. On the basis of the altitude measurement function of the radio altimeter, an information fusion scheme is proposed by combining wind field data, temperature data, and pressure data to correct the measurement data of a single altimeter sensor, realizing altitude measurement under the condition of altimeter data loss, and improving the continuity and effectiveness of the data.

[0022] For ease of understanding of this embodiment, first, a data prediction method for a radio altimeter disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention will be introduced in detail.

[0023] Embodiment 1: An embodiment of the present invention provides a data prediction method for a radio altimeter. Refer to Figure 1 the flowchart of a data prediction method for a radio altimeter shown. The data prediction method for the radio altimeter includes the following steps: Step S102, obtain the measurement data of the radio altimeter of the aircraft, and determine the first altitude information of the aircraft based on the measurement data.

[0024] In this embodiment, the radio altimeter can determine the absolute altitude of the aircraft relative to the ground by measuring the delay between the transmitted electromagnetic wave and the received electromagnetic wave. The radio wave propagates at a constant speed in a uniform medium in a straight line. The relationship between the flight altitude H (i.e., the first altitude information), the radio wave propagation speed c, and the radio wave propagation time t is as follows: (1) The delay time t of the radio altimeter transmitted signal relative to the received signal H is: (2) Therefore, in this embodiment, the first altitude information of the aircraft can be determined based on the measurement data of the radio altimeter through formulas (1) and (2).

[0025] Step S104, obtain the wind field data, temperature data, and pressure data of the aircraft, and determine the second altitude information, the third altitude information, and the fourth altitude information based on the wind field data, temperature data, and pressure data respectively.

[0026] In this embodiment, the wind field data, temperature data, and pressure data of the aircraft can also be obtained, and the corresponding altitude information (i.e., the second altitude information, the third altitude information, and the fourth altitude information) can be determined based on the wind field data, temperature data, and pressure data respectively.

[0027] The barometric sensing element on the aircraft can sense the atmospheric pressure, while the temperature sensor can sense the ambient temperature. Generally, the atmospheric pressure decreases with the increase of the aircraft's altitude and is related to factors such as temperature, location, season, and weather. Therefore, the altitude of the aircraft can be determined according to the specific functional relationship. Assuming that the air is an ideal gas, the relationship between the atmospheric pressure and the standard pressure altitude is: (3) where: P b is the lower limit of the air pressure in the relevant altitude layer, T b is the lower limit of the atmospheric temperature in the relevant altitude layer, H b is the standard pressure altitude of the relevant altitude layer, β is the vertical change rate of the atmospheric temperature, g = 9.8 m / s2 is the gravitational acceleration, and R = 287.05 m2 / K·s2 is the air gas constant.

[0028] According to Equation (3), the altitude measurement information of the aircraft based on the air pressure and temperature is: (4) Therefore, in this embodiment, the third altitude information and the fourth altitude information can be determined based on the temperature data and the air pressure data through Equations (3) and (4) respectively. Among them, the air pressure data can be set as a fixed value when calculating the third altitude information, and the temperature data can be set as a fixed value when calculating the fourth altitude information.

[0029] The change of the wind speed with altitude is relatively significant, and the change law can be represented by the wind shear index α: (5) where H1 is the altitude at position 1, H2 is the altitude at position 2, V1 is the wind speed at altitude H1, and V2 is the wind speed at altitude H2. The wind shear index α can be determined according to the wind field data.

[0030] Therefore, in this embodiment, the second altitude information can be determined based on the wind field data through Equation (5).

[0031] Step S106, determine the final altitude information of the aircraft based on the first altitude information, the second altitude information, the third altitude information, and the fourth altitude information.

[0032] Since the measurement signal of the radio altimeter is affected by the movement of the aircraft and the terrain undulation, while the wind field data, the temperature data, and the air pressure data are not affected by the terrain change but are easily affected by the atmospheric environment. Therefore, a data fusion algorithm can be used to fuse multiple measurement data (i.e., the first altitude information, the second altitude information, the third altitude information, and the fourth altitude information) to obtain the best altitude measurement result and improve the continuity and effectiveness of the measurement data.

[0033] An embodiment of the present invention provides a data prediction method for a radio altimeter. The method includes obtaining measurement data of the radio altimeter of an aircraft, and determining first altitude information of the aircraft based on the measurement data; obtaining wind field data, temperature data, and air pressure data of the aircraft, and respectively determining second altitude information, third altitude information, and fourth altitude information based on the wind field data, temperature data, and air pressure data; and determining final altitude information of the aircraft based on the first altitude information, the second altitude information, the third altitude information, and the fourth altitude information. In this way, on the basis of the altitude measurement function of the radio altimeter, an information fusion scheme can be proposed by combining the wind field data, temperature data, and air pressure data to correct the measurement data of a single altimeter sensor, realize altitude measurement under the condition of altimeter data loss, and improve the continuity and effectiveness of the data.

[0034] Embodiment 2: This embodiment provides another data prediction method for a radio altimeter. This method is implemented on the basis of the above embodiment, and focuses on describing the specific manner of fusing various measurement data through a data fusion algorithm. Refer to Figure 2 the flowchart of another data prediction method for a radio altimeter shown in. The data prediction method for the radio altimeter includes the following steps: Step S202: Obtain measurement data of the radio altimeter of the aircraft, and determine first altitude information of the aircraft based on the measurement data.

[0035] Step S204: Obtain wind field data, temperature data, and air pressure data of the aircraft, and respectively determine second altitude information, third altitude information, and fourth altitude information based on the wind field data, temperature data, and air pressure data.

[0036] Step S206: Determine whether the measurement data of the radio altimeter at the current moment is invalid.

[0037] In this embodiment, it can be first determined whether the measurement data of the radio altimeter at the current moment is invalid.

[0038] In some embodiments, if the measurement data of the radio altimeter at the current moment is lost, it is determined that the measurement data of the radio altimeter at the current moment is invalid; if the measurement data of the radio altimeter at the current moment is not lost, it is determined that the measurement data of the radio altimeter at the current moment is valid.

[0039] According to different selected reference planes, the measurement values of the radio altimeter at the same vertical position are also different. The radio altimeter obtains the absolute altitude of the aircraft at the vertical position. In a specific environment, the signal-to-noise ratio of the echo signal received by the altimeter may be relatively poor, resulting in low receiving sensitivity and further causing the phenomenon of measurement data loss.

[0040] Step S208, if the measurement data of the radio altimeter at the current moment is invalid, determine the final altitude information of the aircraft at the current moment based on the first altitude information, the second altitude information, the third altitude information, and the fourth altitude information at the previous moment, as well as the second altitude information, the third altitude information, and the fourth altitude information at the current moment.

[0041] Suppose that at the previous moment t0 when the altimeter information is lost, the altitude of the aircraft is H ALT-0 (i.e., the first altitude information at the previous moment); see Figure 3 the schematic diagram of a data prediction method of a radio altimeter shown in, at the current moment t1, the information H ALT-1 (i.e., the first altitude information at the current moment) output by the altimeter is H ALT-0 on the basis of superimposing the altitude change ΔH: (6) The embodiment of the present invention provides a multi-source altitude measurement data filling scheme. The improved multi-source altitude measurement data filling scheme proposed in this embodiment combines wind field data, temperature data, and air pressure data on the basis of the altitude measurement function of the radio altimeter to jointly obtain altitude measurement data, realizes altitude measurement under the condition of altimeter data loss, and improves the continuity and effectiveness of the data.

[0042] As Figure 3 shown, suppose that at the moment t0, the altitude information obtained from the wind field data, temperature data, and air pressure data is respectively H Wind-0 (i.e., the second altitude information at the previous moment), H Temp-0 (i.e., the third altitude information at the previous moment), and H Press-0 (i.e., the fourth altitude information at the previous moment); at the moment t1, the flight altitude information obtained from the wind field data, temperature data, and air pressure data is respectively H Wind-1 (i.e., the second altitude information at the current moment), H Temp-1 (i.e., the third altitude information at the current moment), and H Press-1 (i.e., the fourth altitude information at the current moment).

[0043] In some embodiments, the difference between the second altitude information at the current moment and the second altitude information at the previous moment can be used as the second altitude change information; the difference between the third altitude information at the current moment and the third altitude information at the previous moment can be used as the third altitude change information; the difference between the fourth altitude information at the current moment and the fourth altitude information at the previous moment can be used as the fourth altitude change information; determine the final altitude change information based on the second altitude change information, the third altitude change information, and the fourth altitude change information; and use the sum of the final altitude change information and the first altitude information at the previous moment as the final altitude information of the aircraft at the current moment.

[0044] AsFigure 3 As shown, let the height changes corresponding to the wind field data, temperature data, and barometric pressure data be denoted as ΔH Wind (i.e., the second height change information), ΔH Temp (i.e., the third height change information), and ΔH Press (i.e., the fourth height change information), respectively. Then, we have: (7) In some embodiments, if the measurement data of the radio altimeter at the current moment is valid, the height information at the current moment is used as the final height information of the aircraft at the current moment.

[0045] Reference can be made to Figure 4 the schematic diagram of another data prediction method of the radio altimeter shown, and the following flag bits are defined: a) Flag bit is 0: Use the altimeter data and external data, where the external data includes wind field data, temperature data, and barometric pressure data; b) Flag bit is 1: Judge the validity of the altimeter data. When it is judged as "valid", directly output the measurement data of the altimeter itself. When it is judged as "invalid", use the altimeter data and external data.

[0046] Furthermore, a data filling scheme under the condition of altimeter information loss is established as Figure 4 shown. When using external data, that is, applying formula (5) to obtain the altimeter output information, the actual height change ΔH should be obtained by fusing ΔH Wind , ΔH Temp and ΔH Press .

[0047] In some embodiments, the above aircraft is provided with N sensors, and the N sensors are used to detect the wind field data, temperature data, and barometric pressure data of the aircraft. The measured values of the N sensors are the second height change information, the third height change information, or the fourth height change information respectively, and N is greater than or equal to 3.

[0048] Considering that the N sensors respectively correspond to 1 local filter, for the wind field data, temperature data, and barometric pressure data, N = 3.

[0049] Let the observed value of the i-th local filter, i.e., the height of the aircraft, be Z i , then the measured values of the N sensors form Z1, Z2 ……, Z N .

[0050] In some embodiments, the minimum value among the measurement values of N sensors can be used as the optimal height value; based on the measurement values of the N sensors, a preset resolution coefficient, and the optimal height value, the correlation coefficients of the N sensors are determined; based on the correlation coefficients of the N sensors and the preset weight values of the N sensors, the correlation degree between the measurement values of the N sensors and the optimal height value is determined; the sensor with the highest correlation degree is used as the target sensor; and the difference between the measurement value of the target sensor at the current moment and the measurement value of the target sensor at the previous moment is used as the final height change information.

[0051] In this embodiment, according to the grey relational analysis method, the correlation coefficient e of the i-th sensor can be obtained i : (8) where 0 < ρ < 1, ρ is the resolution coefficient, representing the identification ability of the system. The smaller the ρ value, the greater the identification ability. Preferably, ρ = 0.5 can be taken; Z0 = min(Z1, Z2……, Z N ).

[0052] According to e i the correlation coefficient vector E is obtained: (9) Calculate the correlation degree R between the measurement value of the i-th sensor and the optimal height value Z0 i : (10) where w i is the weight value.

[0053] The larger the correlation degree R i , it indicates that the measurement value Z i of the sensor i is closer to the optimal height value Z0.

[0054] Finally, the sensor with the largest correlation degree is selected as the target sensor to determine the final height change information ΔH, and substituting it into formula (6) to obtain the measured height value as the final height information.

[0055] The embodiment of the present invention provides a multi-sensor fusion algorithm based on grey relational analysis. The measurement accuracies and usage conditions of wind field data, temperature data, and air pressure data are all different. The multi-sensor fusion algorithm based on grey relational analysis proposed in this embodiment can obtain the superposition height change value most suitable for the current flight conditions, and then correct the measurement data of a single altimeter sensor.

[0056] In summary, the above method provided by the embodiments of the present invention specifically provides a radio altimeter data prediction method based on multi-source auxiliary information. On the basis of the altitude measurement function of the radio altimeter, an information fusion scheme is proposed by combining wind field data, temperature data, and air pressure data to correct the measurement data of a single altimeter sensor, realizing altitude measurement under the condition of altimeter data loss, and improving the continuity and effectiveness of the data.

[0057] Embodiment 3: Corresponding to the above method embodiment, the embodiment of the present invention provides a data prediction device for a radio altimeter.
