Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of meteorological monitoring and relates to a Tianhai Zhimou meteorological perception system based on real-time correction of airspace weather forecast by unmanned aerial vehicles. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of the low-altitude economy, emerging industries such as drone logistics and urban air traffic are placing higher demands on the refinement and real-time nature of airspace meteorological services. Traditional meteorological monitoring relies on satellite remote sensing and sparsely distributed ground-based observation stations, which have insufficient spatial resolution and are unable to capture key meteorological phenomena such as micro-scale turbulence and localized severe convection in complex terrain. Numerical forecast models, due to their high computational complexity and long update cycles of several hours, cannot meet the minute-by-minute risk avoidance needs of low-altitude aircraft. While unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) mobile platforms can fill observation gaps, existing technologies often focus on collecting a single atmospheric parameter, failing to achieve deep coupling of air, sea, and land data, making it difficult to track the detailed evolution of severe convection.

[0003] Current technical bottlenecks primarily arise from the disconnected processing of ocean circulation data and atmospheric sounding data, which results in distorted simulations of air-sea interaction processes. Furthermore, the high-dimensional, heterogeneous data transmitted by drones lacks an efficient assimilation mechanism, and traditional Kalman filters are inadequate for processing three-dimensional wind fields that update at the second level. Furthermore, AI-powered meteorological models exhibit significant physical distortion when applied to complex terrain, and their warning results have yet to be effectively integrated with airspace control systems. While CN120044638 addresses drone-based meteorological monitoring, it fails to establish a dynamic closed-loop "detection-correction-redetection" mechanism. Purely data-driven models, such as CNN-LSTM, exhibit high false alarm rates in mountainous areas.

[0004] To address these challenges, the present invention innovatively utilizes drones to revise airspace weather forecasts in real time: the system uses a swarm of drones equipped with Doppler lidar and microwave radiometers to achieve high-temporal-resolution scanning of turbulence structures and temperature and humidity gradients in low-altitude areas below 1,000 meters. The core technological breakthrough lies in the establishment of an air-sea-land intelligent coupling mechanism, which uses the ensemble Kalman filter algorithm to integrate meteorological ground-based observations, ocean circulation fields, and drone detection data in real time to construct an efficient three-dimensional wind field reconstruction engine. It also adopts a physically enhanced AI correction strategy, uses the LSTM-Transformer hybrid model to drive forecast updates, and introduces a gradient constraint mechanism to effectively suppress non-physical mutations in the meteorological field. The ultimate value of the system is reflected in the deep coordination of airspace control. It can automatically generate risk heat maps, plan obstacle avoidance paths, and link with the air traffic management system to trigger control instructions. The comprehensive application of this system breaks through the limitations of traditional methods in temporal-spatial resolution, providing high-temporal-spatial resolution early warning support for scenarios such as port scheduling and drone logistics.
