Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to an autonomous obstacle avoidance system for flying cars based on vehicle-road-cloud collaboration, specifically an autonomous obstacle avoidance system for flying cars that integrates vehicle-mounted edge computing, 5G-V2X communication and cloud-based collaborative control. It is applicable to multi-agent collaborative traffic management scenarios in urban low-altitude airspace and belongs to the field of intelligent transportation and low-altitude travel technology. Background Technology
[0002] The existing obstacle avoidance systems for flying cars have the following defects: (1) Limited perception: Traditional millimeter-wave radar has a blind zone rate of >40% in rainy and foggy weather, and lidar has a point cloud missing rate of ≥15% due to strong light interference. (2) Decision delay: In dynamic obstacle scenarios, the perception-planning time delay link is too long, resulting in a minimum obstacle avoidance distance of ≥400m when driving at high speed, which seriously restricts the utilization rate of low-altitude airspace. (3) Lack of a unified cloud scheduling mechanism: When obstacles suddenly appear, the single-vehicle potential field algorithm cannot predict the trajectory of multiple vehicles, making it difficult to cope with sudden group obstacle threats and easily leading to airspace conflicts. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To overcome the aforementioned technical bottlenecks faced by existing flying cars during low-altitude cruise, this invention provides an autonomous obstacle avoidance system for flying cars based on vehicle-road-cloud collaboration.

[0017] The single-vehicle obstacle avoidance module introduces a velocity direction derivative by improving the gravitational field function in the artificial potential field method and introduces a collision risk index by introducing a repulsive field function. It triggers a vertical climb command by using an emergency gradient field when the TTC is less than a set threshold.
[0018] Artificial potential field method, a classic intelligent algorithm in path planning, achieves autonomous obstacle avoidance and path navigation for flying cars by simulating the gravitational and repulsive forces in a physical potential field. This invention improves upon the traditional artificial potential field method by considering the vertical obstacle avoidance algorithm of the flying car obstacle avoidance system and introducing an emergency gradient field function. When the TTC (Total Traction Time) is less than a set threshold, a vertical climb command is triggered, solving the failure problem of traditional horizontal obstacle avoidance in space-constrained or high-speed approach scenarios.
[0019] The improved artificial potential field method specifically includes:
[0020] Gravitational field function introduces partial derivatives in velocity direction Solving the oscillation problem of traditional APF in narrow channels; introducing a collision risk index e into the repulsive field function. -α·TTC Traditional repulsive field By relying solely on distance, the dynamic collision risk is transformed into repulsive force intensity, achieving an exponentially enhanced repulsive force against high-speed approaching obstacles and automatically weakening the repulsive force interference against obstacles far away.

[0027] The emergency gradient field specifically includes:
[0028] Acceleration from 10 m / s² is achieved through multi-stage coordination of the power system. 2 Up to 30m / s 2 Precise control solves the problem of failure of traditional horizontal obstacle avoidance in space-constrained or high-speed approach scenarios;
[0029] Emergency gradient field function:
[0030]
[0031] In the formula, g is the acceleration due to gravity; The direction of velocity is z; when TTC < 5s, vertical climb is forcibly triggered.
[0032] The perception enhancement module uses a meteorological compensation model to couple and model the three parameters of rainfall intensity, dust concentration, and visibility, thereby reducing compensation errors and improving roadside perception accuracy. It also integrates environmental sensor data through a roadside perception calibration mechanism to perform multi-dimensional attenuation compensation and distance inversion on radar echoes, calibrating detection values to eliminate environmental interference and improve perception accuracy in complex scenarios.
[0033] The meteorological compensation model reduces compensation errors and improves roadside sensing accuracy by coupling three parameters: rainfall intensity, dust concentration, and visibility. The core formula of the meteorological compensation model is:
[0034]
[0035] In the formula, R raw k represents the raw echo intensity of the millimeter-wave radar. r is the rainfall attenuation coefficient, with a value of 0.015; RI is the rainfall intensity, in mm / h; k d is the dust attenuation coefficient, with a value of 0.02; DC is the dust concentration, in μg / m³. 3 MOR stands for meteorological optical distance, measured in meters (m). base The baseline visibility is set at 10000m.
[0036] The roadside perception calibration mechanism takes the original radar echo as input and integrates environmental parameters such as rainfall, dust concentration, and visibility. It eliminates environmental interference from the radar echo through three modules: rain attenuation compensation, dust attenuation compensation, and visibility compensation, generating a compensated echo. Based on the characteristics of the compensated signal, a distance inversion algorithm is performed to accurately analyze the actual distance information of the target object. Through cross-validation between the distance inversion results and the original radar detection values, a closed-loop calibration model is constructed to dynamically correct the radar detection data. This improves the target detection accuracy, distance measurement reliability, and scene adaptability of the roadside perception system under complex weather conditions, ensuring consistency between the perception results and the real traffic environment.
[0037] The multi-vehicle collaboration module uses a risk quantification model to calculate a comprehensive risk value based on the distance between aircraft and time to collision (TTC), combined with spatial distance sensitivity factors. This quantifies the collision risk level in multi-vehicle collaboration and uses a graded response mechanism to divide the risk value into four levels: monitoring, fine-tuning, replanning, and takeover. It matches the gradient execution time to achieve dynamic risk management of multi-level collaboration in the cloud.
[0038] The risk quantification model is based on the distance-to-collision-time (TTC) between aircraft, combined with a spatial distance sensitivity factor, to calculate a comprehensive risk value that quantifies the collision risk level in multi-vehicle collaboration. The core formula is:
[0039]
[0040] In the formula, β is a spatial distance sensitivity factor with a value of 0.1; The distance between the i-th pair of aircraft; TTC i Let i be the collision time of the i-th pair;
[0041] The hierarchical response mechanism specifically includes:
[0042] When the risk value exceeds the set threshold, global path replanning is triggered. When the risk value is in the range of 0-0.3, monitoring measures are implemented: when the risk value is in the range of 0.3-0.7, path fine-tuning suggestions are implemented with an execution time of ≤200ms; when the risk value is >0.7, replanning is forcibly executed with an execution time of ≤50ms; when the risk value is >0.9, control is taken over and airspace is urgently isolated with an execution time of ≤20ms.
[0043] The collaborative decision-making design principles for vehicle-side systems, road-side systems, cloud-based systems, and system integration platforms are as follows: (1) Dynamic allocation of responsibilities, dynamically adjusting decision-making leadership based on risk level; (2) Time sensitivity guarantee, enabling the shortest communication path in emergency scenarios; (3) Redundancy verification mechanism, with the cloud performing millisecond-level arbitration for high-risk decisions.
[0044] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0045] This invention achieves efficient obstacle avoidance and airspace management for flying cars in complex low-altitude environments through a three-level collaborative architecture of vehicle-road-cloud: the vehicle deploys a dynamic potential field model and an emergency gradient field, combined with 5G ultra-low latency communication, to shorten local decision-making response time; the roadside eliminates perception blind spots through a weather compensation model and 4D radar networking; and the cloud-based digital twin dynamically predicts multi-vehicle trajectory conflicts and implements hierarchical risk control, thereby improving low-altitude airspace traffic density and multi-aircraft collaborative safety.
[0046] This invention improves the artificial potential field method by introducing a velocity direction partial derivative into the gravitational field function. Solving the oscillation problem of traditional APF in narrow channels; introducing a collision risk index e into the repulsive field function. -α·TTC Traditional repulsive field By relying solely on distance, the dynamic collision risk is transformed into repulsive force intensity, achieving an exponentially enhanced repulsive force against high-speed approaching obstacles and automatically weakening the repulsive force interference against obstacles far away.
[0047] The meteorological compensation model of this invention introduces rainfall intensity, dust concentration, and visibility parameters on the basis of the original echo intensity of millimeter-wave radar. Through three-parameter coupling modeling, the compensation error is reduced and the perception accuracy is improved.
[0048] The vehicle-road-cloud collaborative architecture for obstacle avoidance of flying cars in this invention achieves a comprehensive effect of reducing decision-making latency, eliminating perception blind spots, and improving airspace efficiency through cross-layer optimization of dynamic potential field model (vehicle-side), meteorological perception fusion (road-side), and digital twin prediction (cloud-side).
