Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle control, in particular to a method for intercepting unmanned aerial vehicles by collision based on monocular vision and a collision unmanned aerial vehicle. BACKGROUND

[0002] An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is a pilotless aircraft that is controlled by radio remote control equipment and self-provided program control device. The booming UAV industry, mature technology and greatly reduced production cost have made UAVs deeply integrated into people's lives. However, the wide application of UAVs has also brought many safety hazards. Illegal "black flight" occurs frequently, and UAVs intrude into airports and air defense identification zones, seriously threatening aviation safety. After modification, the load capacity of UAVs can be converted into offensive weapons, endangering public safety. Therefore, it has become a social problem to be solved to implement effective UAV countermeasures in low-altitude airspace.

[0003] The current mainstream UAV countermeasures include net gun / net bomb launching, laser attack and counter UAV collision. The net gun / net bomb launching captures the propeller of a UAV by launching a winding net to make the UAV lose power and force-land. The laser attack uses a high-power laser beam to irradiate the photoelectric sensor, battery or fuselage of a UAV to make it paralyzed or crash. The counter UAV collision deploys a counter UAV with autonomous navigation capability, which is not affected by weather conditions and radio signals and can realize over-the-horizon operation.

[0004] Compared with the net gun / net bomb and laser attack, the counter UAV collision technology has unique advantages in adaptability to complex environments and cost-effectiveness. The net gun needs to rely on manual or auxiliary aiming systems, and when multiple targets invade simultaneously, there are problems of slow response speed and untimely ammunition replenishment. Although the laser attack can achieve long-distance precision attack, the equipment cost is high, and the effectiveness is greatly reduced in extreme weather (such as sandstorm and heavy rain). However, the traditional UAV collision method brings many challenges due to complex sensors. To achieve precise attack, multiple high-precision sensors are often needed to cooperate, which not only greatly increases the cost but also reduces the reliability of the equipment. SUMMARY

[0058] The technical solutions of the application are described in detail below with specific embodiments and drawings.

[0059] As shown in the figure, a method for estimating the position of a UAV and intercepting a collision based on monocular vision information, calculates the azimuth angle of the target UAV through a monocular vision-based target detection algorithm, then estimates the position of the target UAV using a pseudo-linear Kalman filter algorithm, and controls the collision UAV to achieve the interception of the target UAV using a UAV maneuvering strategy. Figure 1

[0060] I. Vision-based target detection algorithm

[0061] A monocular camera is used to image the target UAV, tiny-YOLOv4 is used to extract 2D targets from the imaging obtained by the monocular camera, the bounding box of the target UAV is obtained, and the composite measurement information is calculated using the bounding box information. The composite measurement information includes direction measurement information g and angle measurement information .

[0062] The center pixel coordinates of the bounding box are used , the three-dimensional direction vector g is calculated through the camera intrinsic matrix and the rotation matrix :

[0063]

[0064] wherein, is the pixel coordinates of the center point of the bounding box.

[0065] The bounding box size is converted into angle measurement information, i.e. the included angle (see Figure 2 ):

[0071] Through the above monocular camera imaging, target detection and calculation using the boundary box pixel coordinates and size, the key measurement quantity for describing the relative relationship between the target and the tracker is obtained.

[0072] Further analysis from the perspective of target motion state, the azimuth vector and the included angle are nonlinear functions of the target state , , is the three-dimensional position of the target, is the three-dimensional position of the tracker, is the physical size of the target.

[0073] II. Pseudo-linear Kalman filtering algorithm

[0074] Using the above azimuth measurement information and the angle measurement information , if the Kalman filtering method is directly used to estimate the position of the target unmanned aerial vehicle, large errors will be introduced, especially in the target close range or high maneuvering scene, which is easy to cause filter divergence. The present application converts the nonlinear measurement into a "pseudo-linear" form through the orthogonal projection matrix and algebraic transformation, and carries out pseudo-linear Kalman filtering.

[0075] Augmented state vector definition: a ten-dimensional state vector

[0081] Pseudo-linear measurement conversion: through the orthogonal projection matrix , the nonlinear measurement of the azimuth vector and the included angle , are the measurement noises of the direction vector and the included angle respectively)

[0082]

[0083]

[0084] Transforming to pseudo-linear equations:

[0085]

[0086] .

[0087] Pseudo-linear measurement equation is represented as:

[0088]

[0089] where,

[0090]

[0091]

[0092] .

[0093] The state transition matrix and the measurement matrix are obtained.

[0094] (1) Prediction stage

[0095]

[0096]

[0097] To predict the current time prior state, is the previous time state estimate, is the input matrix, is the input. Combined with the previous time state covariance , state transition matrix and process noise covariance , the prior state covariance is updated, reflecting the prediction uncertainty.

[0098] The residual is calculated by subtracting the observation value from the observation value based on the prior state prediction, obtaining the residual , measuring the deviation between prediction and actual observation:

[0099] .

[0100] The forgetting factor (Balance new and old information weights), combined with the previous time observation noise covariance estimation Update observation noise covariance online with residual information Let the filter adapt to the observation noise changes:

[0101] .

[0102] Calculate the Kalman gain, weighing the state prediction uncertainty and observation noise uncertainty , calculate the Kalman gain , determine the contribution of observation information to state update:

[0103] .

[0104] (2) State update

[0105] Use the prior state combined with the Kalman gain , residual , get the posterior state estimate , fusion prediction and observation information. Among them,

[0106] .

[0107] Update the posterior state covariance , reflecting the uncertainty of the state estimate after fusion observation, identity matrix:

[0108] .

[0109] After the pseudo-linear Kalman filter algorithm, the final estimated target position information , target speed , target acceleration , target size can be obtained from the posterior state estimate obtained in the state update stage.

[0110] Three, the maneuvering strategy of the UAV

[0111] After obtaining the position information of the target, autonomous guidance impact on the target is realized by using reinforcement learning decision. The input of the reinforcement learning guidance decision module is the target state (position , speed ) obtained by the pseudo-linear Kalman filter target position estimator and the countermeasure UAV's own state (position , speed ), and the output is the flight control command of the countermeasure UAV (the countermeasure UAV , , axial acceleration ), and finally forces the counter-UAV to approach and impact the target along the optimal trajectory through continuous decision-making.

[0112] The structure of the reinforcement learning guidance decision module is shown in Fig. 2. Figure 1 The state space is defined as:

[0113]

[0114] where, is the three-dimensional relative position of the counter-UAV and the target, obtained by subtracting the target position from the counter-UAV position . is the three-dimensional relative velocity of the counter-UAV and the target, obtained by subtracting the target velocity from the counter-UAV velocity .

[0115] The output of the guidance decision module is the axial acceleration , , axial acceleration .

[0116] To guide the counter-UAV to quickly and accurately impact the target while avoiding off-target or pre-impact instability, the reward function is designed as:

[0117]

[0118] where, is the distance reward, encouraging the counter-UAV to continuously approach the target, inversely proportional to the relative distance; is the direction reward, encouraging the counter-UAV to fly towards the target, based on the relative bearing angle (the angle between the counter-UAV's heading direction and the line connecting the counter-UAV and the target), where the closer to 1 (the more consistent the direction), the greater the reward, is a positive coefficient; is the impact reward, giving a positive reward if successful impact.

[0119] In terms of reinforcement learning methods, the proximal policy optimization (PPO) algorithm is chosen. It includes a policy network (Actor) and a value network (Critic). The policy network inputs the state and outputs the probability distribution of the action , where, is the policy network parameter, is the mean function, is the standard deviation function. The value network input state , the output state value , where is the value network parameter.

[0120] The algorithm update process is as follows:

[0121] First, use the current policy to interact with the environment and collect data

[0122]

[0123] Discount report is calculated by the following formula:

[0124]

[0125] where, is the discount factor, , is the terminal time step.

[0126] The generalized advantage estimation is calculated by the following formula:

[0127]

[0128] where, is the time difference residual, is the generalized advantage estimation parameter, which balances the bias and variance of the advantage estimation.

[0129] Update the policy network parameters by maximizing the Clip objective function , limit the difference between the new and old policies, the update formula is:

[0130]

[0131] where, is the probability ratio of the new and old policies, is the clipping parameter, is the old policy parameter before updating.

[0132] Update the value network parameters by minimizing the mean square error loss:

[0133] .

[0134] Through the above design, the policy network and value network of the PPO algorithm work together to form a closed loop of "state awareness - action decision - reward feedback", enabling the counter unmanned aerial vehicle to have the autonomous guidance capability of self-adaptive target motion.

[0135] Four, simulation experiment

[0136] To compare the performance of adaptive pseudo-linear Kalman filter and non-adaptive pseudo-linear Kalman filter in dynamic target pursuit scenario, and verify the robustness of adaptive filter to system noise, the accuracy of target state estimation and the improvement of pursuit efficiency. A single pursuit experiment is designed.

[0137] (1) Experimental method

[0138] The target moves at a constant speed v t = [2m / s, 2m / s]T, and the pursuer controls the motion using the proportional navigation guidance law (PNG) with a navigation gain of 1, with a constant speed of 3 m / s, and only adjusts the direction to approach the target. The simulation is terminated when the pursuit is successful; the initial estimation conditions of the two filtering methods (adaptive Kalman filter, non-adaptive Kalman filter) are consistent, including the initial estimated values of target position, velocity, size and noise covariance parameters (as shown in Table 1 and Table 2), and the trajectory estimation error and convergence are used as indicators to compare the performance of the two methods in the pursuit of escaping target scenario.

[0139] (2) Parameter setting

[0140] Table 1 Basic simulation parameters

[0141]

[0142] Table 2 Initial parameters of filter

[0143] .

[0144] (3) Results and discussion

[0145] Figure 3 The results show that in the case of pseudo-linear Kalman filter (PLKF) ( Figure 3 left), the tracker shows obvious deviation and oscillation behavior, which is a direct result of the filter's inability to adapt to the statistical fluctuations of monocular noise. In contrast, the trajectory of AKF guidance ( Figure 3 right) closely follows the true value of the target position in a smooth and stable manner, highlighting the stabilizing effect of adaptive covariance adjustment.

[0146] AKF is superior to non-adaptive PLKF in terms of position error, target size, estimation error, velocity estimation error and cumulative error (see Figure 4 ). During the entire pursuit process, the position error under AKF remains bounded and low, while the PLKF error accumulates rapidly, eventually leading to divergence. The velocity and target size estimates under AKF also converge stably to the true value, while the PLKF results fluctuate greatly. The cumulative error curve further confirms that the adaptive strategy effectively suppresses long-term error propagation.

[0147] In the three key dimensions of capture efficiency, estimation accuracy and state stability, the adaptive Kalman filter (AKF) is significantly better than the pseudo-linear Kalman filter (PLKF). First, AKF reduces the average estimation error by 43.7% and shortens the capture time by 19.8%, indicating that its adaptive mechanism effectively improves the overall performance of the filtering algorithm. Second, AKF shows stronger robustness by dynamically adjusting the noise covariance matrix, significantly enhancing the ability to adapt to observation noise fluctuations and target motion uncertainty, making it more suitable for scenarios where noise parameters are unknown or time-varying in real environments. Finally, AKF has good engineering practicability - its algorithm complexity is comparable to that of non-adaptive PLKF, only adding residual calculation and parameter adjustment steps in the basic process, without the need for additional hardware resources, making it easy to implement and deploy in practical systems.

[0148] Five, the design of the impact drone

[0149] An impact drone comprises a 5MM carbon fiber frame 1 and a machine arm 2 arranged on the side of the frame 1, and the number of machine arms 2 can be four, six or eight.

A battery shell 12 is sleeved outside the battery fixing support 4.
