Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to aircraft trajectory planning, and in particular to a collaborative trajectory planning method and system for a low-altitude multi-aircraft mixed take-off and landing field. Background Art

[0002] With the gradual opening of low-altitude airspace and the increasing use of low-altitude aircraft such as drones, mixed takeoff and landing scenarios at low altitudes are becoming increasingly common. In these mixed takeoff and landing fields, a large number of different types of aircraft take off and land simultaneously, creating a complex and ever-changing airspace environment and posing numerous challenges to trajectory planning.

[0003] Traditional aircraft trajectory planning methods, which often rely on manual planning or simple rule-based automated planning, struggle to adapt to the highly dynamic and complex low-altitude, multi-aircraft mixed takeoff and landing scenarios. On the one hand, traditional methods lack a detailed understanding of airspace demarcation, failing to accurately and in real time reflect airspace status, making them difficult to meet the requirements of multi-aircraft coordinated operations. On the other hand, during the trajectory planning process, they have limited ability to address issues such as track intersection risks and spatiotemporal conflicts, failing to effectively ensure the safety and efficiency of aircraft flights.

[0004] Furthermore, when faced with spatiotemporal conflicts, there is a lack of scientific and rational conflict resolution strategies. In particular, the avoidance path planning for aircraft of different priorities is not optimized enough, which can easily lead to unreasonable avoidance paths for low-priority aircraft, increasing flight time and energy consumption, and even affecting the operational efficiency of the entire low-altitude flight system. Therefore, a collaborative trajectory planning method and system for low-altitude multi-aircraft mixed take-off and landing fields is urgently needed to address the above issues and ensure the safe, orderly, and efficient operation of the low-altitude flight system. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In response to the above-mentioned shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a collaborative trajectory planning method and system for low-altitude multi-aircraft mixed take-off and landing fields, which can effectively overcome the defects of the existing technology that it is difficult to reasonably plan the avoidance path of low-priority aircraft and cannot effectively ensure the flight safety of aircraft during the take-off and landing phases.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions:

[0007] The collaborative trajectory planning method for a low-altitude multi-aircraft mixed take-off and landing field includes the following steps:

[0008] S1. Divide the airspace into three dimensions based on the Beidou grid code and map the airspace status of the three-dimensional grid cells in real time.

[0009] S2. Divide the three-dimensional grid cells according to the grid state;

[0010] S3. Construct geometric track generation rules to eliminate track intersection risks;

[0011] S4. Introducing the time dimension on the basis of three-dimensional space, performing four-dimensional space-time conflict detection on all tracks, and performing conflict resolution based on the four-dimensional space-time conflict detection results;

[0012] S5. Build a dual-queue dynamic scheduling mechanism to guide the aircraft to land safely through queue separation and polling allocation;

[0013] Among them, when resolving conflicts based on the four-dimensional space-time conflict detection results, for low-priority aircraft, an improved quantum heuristic path planning algorithm is used to perform avoidance path planning to guide low-priority aircraft to bypass the conflict area.

[0014] Preferably, in S1, the airspace is divided into three dimensions based on the Beidou grid code, and the airspace status is mapped in real time to the three-dimensional grid cells, including:

[0015] S11. Use the GeoSOT global earth 3D model to divide the airspace within a preset altitude range into multiple 3D grids, and assign a corresponding Beidou grid code to each 3D grid cell.

[0016] S12. Combined with the low-altitude three-dimensional grid map, each three-dimensional grid unit is marked as "occupied" or "idle", and updated in real time through the Beidou satellite navigation system to achieve real-time mapping of the airspace status of the three-dimensional grid unit.

[0017] Preferably, dividing the three-dimensional grid units according to the grid state in S2 includes:

[0018] By overlaying the Beidou grid code with the Geographic Information System (GIS), the three-dimensional grid cells covering high-risk areas are marked as no-fly zones and marked in red, prohibiting all aircraft from entering.

[0019] The three-dimensional grid cells covered by the free airspace are marked as flyable areas and marked in green, allowing aircraft to pass through according to priority;

[0020] The three-dimensional grid cells covered by the potential conflict area are marked as buffer zones and colored yellow. Passage permissions need to be dynamically adjusted based on the priority weights of the aircraft.

[0021] Among them, the priority weight of the aircraft is set according to the mission type:

[0022] For aircraft performing rescue missions, the first priority weight is set for them, allowing them to pass through the flyable area and buffer zone and enjoy priority passage within the buffer zone;

[0023] For aircraft carrying out manned missions, a second priority weight is set for them, allowing them to pass through the flyable area and the buffer zone, and enjoy the right of way within the buffer zone, second only to aircraft carrying out rescue missions;

[0024] For aircraft performing logistics tasks, a third priority weight is set for them, allowing them to only cross the flyable area and to avoid aircraft with higher priority weights.

[0025] For aircraft performing inspection tasks, a fourth priority weight is set for them, and they are only allowed to pass through the flyable area and must avoid aircraft with higher priority weights.

[0026] Preferably, geometric track generation rules are constructed in S3 to eliminate track intersection risks, including:

[0027] For horizontal trajectory, the aircraft is forced to fly along the edges of the three-dimensional grid cells, and turning is only allowed at the corner points;

[0028] For vertical flight paths, a stepped ascent and descent strategy is adopted, allowing altitude adjustment after crossing a preset number of horizontal three-dimensional grid units. An "oblique landing corridor" is set above the target three-dimensional grid unit. The corridor is 2 three-dimensional grid units wide. The aircraft enters the corridor obliquely at a preset angle to ensure that there is no intersection with the horizontal track.

[0034] S43. Conflict resolution is performed based on the four-dimensional space-time conflict detection result.

[0035] Preferably, in S42, a conflict detection algorithm is used to perform four-dimensional spatiotemporal conflict detection on all tracks, including:

[0036] Spatial conflict detection is performed by checking whether there are multiple tracks occupying the same four-dimensional space-time grid cell at the same time, or whether the vertical distance between tracks is less than the preset safety distance;

[0037] Time conflict detection is performed by calculating whether the minimum time interval between tracks is less than the preset safety time interval.

[0038] Preferably, conflict resolution is performed according to the four-dimensional space-time conflict detection result in S43, including:

[0039] For four-dimensional space-time grid cells with conflict risks, the access permissions are dynamically adjusted according to the priority weights of the aircraft:

[0040] For low-priority aircraft, an improved quantum heuristic path planning algorithm is used for avoidance path planning to guide low-priority aircraft to bypass the conflict area;

[0041] For high-priority aircraft, the safety interval between tracks is expanded by adjusting the flight speed to avoid global replanning.

[0090] Compared with the existing technology, the collaborative trajectory planning method and system for low-altitude multi-aircraft mixed take-off and landing fields provided by the present invention have the following beneficial effects:

[0091] 1) Refined management and dynamic adaptation of airspace resources

[0092] Divide the airspace into discrete three-dimensional grid cells and map the airspace status (such as occupied, idle, and weather anomalies) in real time, achieving high-precision digital modeling of airspace resources. This supports dynamic allocation of airspace for high-density aircraft, avoids resource waste caused by traditional "block" division, and improves airspace utilization by more than 30%.

[0093] 2) Active safety protection under geometric constraints

[0094] Constructing flight path corridors based on spatial geometric topology, forcibly isolating potential flight path intersection risks and eliminating the possibility of aircraft collisions at the source. Compared with traditional reactive obstacle avoidance, the collision rate is reduced by 90% without requiring additional computing resources.

[0095] 3) Accurate prediction and efficient resolution of four-dimensional space-time conflicts

[0096] The time dimension is introduced to construct a four-dimensional space-time model, and four-dimensional space-time conflict detection is performed on all tracks. An improved quantum-inspired path planning algorithm is used to plan avoidance paths for low-priority aircraft. The conflict detection delay is less than 50ms, meeting real-time requirements. At the same time, the quantum algorithm optimizes the avoidance path through parallel search of quantum states, which improves computational efficiency by 40% compared to the traditional A* algorithm and achieves higher path smoothness.

[0097] 4) Differentiated scheduling ensures mixed takeoff and landing efficiency

[0098] Aircraft are divided into a waiting queue (WQ) and a landing queue (LQ). Landing paths are assigned through round-robin, and the queue order is dynamically adjusted to adapt to airspace changes. This reduces emergency mission response time to less than 2 minutes, and the average waiting time for conventional flights is less than 5 minutes. It also supports seamless coordination between vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) and conventional runway take-off and landing, increasing take-off and landing field throughput by 25%.

[0099] 5) Strong adaptability to low-altitude complex scenes

[0100] From airspace modeling to conflict resolution to landing guidance, a closed-loop system covering "planning-detection-scheduling-execution" is formed, which can effectively cope with the unique challenges of low-altitude scenarios such as urban canyons and GPS signal obstruction. In densely built areas, multi-sensor fusion navigation (such as Beidou + vision + UWB) is used to ensure positioning accuracy, and it supports the simultaneous takeoff and landing of hundreds of aircraft, meeting the large-scale operation needs of future urban air traffic (UAM).
