Background Art
[0002] The existing "low-altitude flight service system hardware and software platform" primarily focuses on "communication, navigation, and surveillance," but lacks integration with systems such as the "ground-based platform (vertical takeoff and landing point)" meteorological safety positioning, monitoring, early warning, and ground resistance and ground grid status monitoring modules. With the rapid development of the low-altitude economy, the number of drones and manned aircraft will increase exponentially, making low-altitude flight safety a pressing issue that must be addressed. Our company integrates meteorological safety analysis components with communication, navigation, and surveillance analysis components within the software platform. Through a combined algorithmic solution, we achieve highly accurate positioning and advanced warning of meteorological threats around low-altitude aircraft, providing a safe, scientific, and accurate early warning decision-making management solution and enabling the development of reasonable flight plans for aircraft management.

[0004] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0005] The low-altitude flight service software and hardware platform integrating meteorological safety algorithms consists of: ground-based platform: vertical take-off and landing points / airports, etc., ground / satellite / and various private networks, aircraft communication and monitoring modules, and the low-altitude flight service software and hardware platform integrating meteorological safety algorithms;
[0006] The low-altitude flight service software and hardware platform integrating meteorological safety algorithms includes the following steps:
[0007] In step 1, the weather positioning module collects data such as the longitude and latitude, location, and time of lightning strikes through sensors and special algorithms. The weather monitoring module collects data such as lightning amplitude, lightning current, and time rate of change through sensors and acquisition modules. The weather warning module collects data such as atmospheric electric field distribution, wind speed, wind direction, rainfall, temperature, humidity, and air pressure through sensors. The ground resistance and ground grid status monitoring module collects ground resistance and ground grid status data such as vertical take-off and landing points through sensors. All of this weather safety data is ultimately uploaded to ground / satellite / and various private networks via interfaces such as RJ45 / fiber optic / wireless 4G5G / WI-FI / RS485 / RS422 / LoRa / satellite.

[0009] Step 3: The manned aircraft communication / sensor / radar module data is simultaneously broadcast via the ADS-B transmitter, including identity, high-precision position, speed, altitude, heading, status code, and other information, to the ADS-B ground station. The ADS-B ground station then forwards this information to the proprietary network via the ASTERIX CAT021 interface protocol.
[0010] Step 4: Ground / satellite / and various dedicated networks aggregate and transmit meteorological safety module data, drone / manned aircraft module data, and ADS-B data to the cloud database server;
[0011] Step 5: Software for weather positioning, monitoring, early warning, ground resistance and grounding network analysis, and communication navigation
[0012] The monitoring and analysis module obtains data from the cloud data server in real time and generates analysis data through a specific joint algorithm and reports it to the early warning decision management module;
[0013] Step 6: The software early warning decision management module makes early warning decision management based on the data in step 5 and outputs the result to the scheduling execution management software module;
[0014] Step 7: The scheduling execution management software module outputs the results to the flight plan management software module, and the flight plan management software module outputs a schedule for the aircraft's flight time, route, etc.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0016] First: Integrate the "ground-based platform: vertical take-off and landing point" meteorological safety: positioning, monitoring, early warning and ground resistance and grounding grid status monitoring module systems to provide a safe, scientific and accurate early warning decision-making management plan and formulate a reasonable flight plan for aircraft management.

[0021] The implementation process of the low-altitude flight service software and hardware platform integrating meteorological safety algorithms is as follows:
[0022] The meteorological positioning module collects data such as the longitude and latitude, location, and time of lightning strikes through sensors and special algorithms. The meteorological monitoring module collects data such as lightning amplitude, lightning current, and the rate of change over time through sensors and acquisition modules. The meteorological warning module collects data such as atmospheric electric field distribution, wind speed, wind direction, rainfall, temperature, humidity, and air pressure through sensors. The ground resistance and ground grid status monitoring module collects ground resistance and ground grid status data such as vertical take-off and landing points through sensors. All of this meteorological safety data is ultimately uploaded to ground / satellite / and various private networks via interfaces such as RJ45 / fiber optic / wireless 4G5G / Wi-Fi / RS485 / RS422 / LoRa / satellite.

[0029] Example 2:
[0030] The low-altitude flight service software and hardware platform integrates meteorological safety algorithms. Its characteristics are as follows: the flight service software platform integrates meteorological safety analysis components and communication, navigation, surveillance and analysis components. Through the three core technologies of airborne-ground collaborative perception, quantum intelligent optimization and dynamic grid, it can achieve high-precision positioning and advanced warning of meteorological threats around low-altitude aircraft. The specific implementation process is as follows:
[0031] Process 1: Dynamic Mesh Adaptation Technology (Solving Aircraft Mobility Issues)
[0032] A 3D grid is dynamically constructed based on the real-time position of the aircraft. The center of the grid moves along the trajectory, and the resolution is adaptively adjusted according to the threat level.
[0033] 1. Grid center binding formula
[0034] (λ_c(t), φ_c(t)) = (λ_u(t) + v_u·Δt·cosθ, φ_u(t) + v_u·Δt·sinθ), where vu is the vehicle velocity, θ is the heading angle, and Δt is the update time interval.
[0035] 2. Resolution Adaptive Rules
[0036] Res = {
[0037] 0.5km × 0.5km × 100m if E > 5kV / m
[0038] 1km × 1km × 200m if 1kV / m < E ≤ 5kV / m
[0039] 2km × 2km × 500m otherwise
[0040] }
[0041] The electric field strength threshold E is obtained in real time by the airborne sensor.
[0042] Process 2: Quantum-Genetic Hybrid Optimization Positioning Engine (Breaking Through Traditional Optimization Bottlenecks)
[0043] 1. Quantum-encoded lightning location probability
[0044] Map the lightning position (x,y,z) to a superposition of quantum states:
[0045] |ψ〉 = α0|0〉 + α1|1〉, |α0|² + |α1|² = 1, where αi represents the probability amplitude of the position existing in grid cell i.
[0046] 2. Hybrid fitness function design
[0047] Fusion of TOA error, multimodal feature similarity and terrain attenuation factor
[0048] L = ∑[k=1→K](Δt_k - ||x - x_k|| / c)² (This part is the TOA error)
[0049] + β·||F_model(x) - F_obs||² + γ·exp(-κ·H(x))
[0050] Fmodel: simulated electromagnetic / electric field / topographic characteristics at position x
[0051] H(x): SAR terrain elevation data (to suppress false positives in mountainous areas)
[0052] κ: Terrain attenuation coefficient (measured and calibrated)
[0053] 3. Quantum revolving door and genetic crossover collaborative update
[0054] Quantum Gate Update:
[0055] U(θ) = [ cosθ -sinθ ]
[0056] [ sinθ cosθ ]
[0057] θ = η·exp(-(L_i - L_best) / σ)
[0058] Genetic operation: Differential evolution (DE / best / 1 strategy) is introduced to the particle swarm that has stagnated in convergence to avoid local optimality.
[0059] Process 3: Cross-modal feature fusion model (improving robustness in low-altitude complex environments)
[0060] 1. Multi-source input features
[0061] Electromagnetic pulse time-frequency spectrum (STF) (VLF / LF band), atmospheric electric field gradient ∇E, radar reflectivity Z and SAR terrain elevation HSAR
[0062] 2. Gated Cross-Modal Attention Mechanism
[0063] F_fusion = ∑[i=1→N] g_i·W_i·F_i
[0064] g_i = σ(W_g · [F_i || F_ref])
[0065] gi: gate weight (sigmoid activation)
[0066] Fref: Reference features of the aircraft's surrounding environment (extracted from the dynamic grid)
[0067] Residual connections are introduced to prevent gradient disappearance.
[0068] Process 4: Reinforcement Learning-Optimized Detection Node Deployment (Improving System Perception Coverage)
[0069] For the layout of ground mobile detection nodes, build a virtual environment to train the intelligent agent:
[0070] 1. State Space
[0071] Deployed node coordinates {(xi,yi)}, real-time lightning activity heat map D(x,y)
[0072] 2. Action Space
[0073] Node movement, addition and deletion, and power adjustment
[0074] 3. Reward Function
[0075] R = λ·[∑[(x,y)∈G] D(x,y)·I_cover(x,y)] / ∑D(x,y)- μ·Cost_nodes-ν·Overlap_ratio
[0076] Icover: Whether the grid point (x,y) is covered
[0077] Overlapratio: Node detection overlap ratio (needs to be minimized).
[0078] Process 5: Real-time verification driven by sudden changes in the atmospheric electric field (reducing the false alarm rate)
[0079] Based on the sudden change characteristics of the atmospheric electric field before lightning occurs, the verification constraints are constructed:
[0080] Verification pass conditions:
[0081] |∂E(x,t) / ∂t| > Γ_E ∧ ∇²E(x,t) < 0 ∧ max_k(∂Z_k / ∂t) > Γ_Z
[0082] ΓE, ΓZ: Electric field / radar reflectivity change threshold (dynamic calibration using machine learning)
[0083] Positioning results that fail verification are directly filtered.
[0084] By combining the software algorithms of each part from process one to process five, the data is finally output to the early warning decision management module for decision-making.
