[0085] The data acquisition module uses a drone equipped with multiple sensor components, including a wide-angle camera, lidar, and infrared thermometer, to collect environmental data such as fire source coordinates, wind speed, and wind direction. After onboard edge preprocessing, the environmental data is transmitted to the cloud computing module via the MAVLink protocol.

It features a conventional layout with high tail volume and strong static stability margin, combined with a high aspect ratio rectangular wing (AR=10) and a V-tail design, aiming to provide excellent pitch stability and directional control efficiency in complex flow fields. The main wing uses the NACA6412 airfoil, which exhibits a high lift coefficient and good stall characteristics at low and medium speeds, with a stall angle of attack of 13.7°, ensuring that it is not easily stalled under strong disturbances. The V-tail uses the NACA0012 airfoil, reducing structural weight and simplifying the control surface configuration through aerodynamic coupling, thus improving the system's response reliability in turbulent flow.

With real-time environmental data (such as obstacle locations and wind speed), the IAO algorithm leverages its information perception advantage to continuously adjust path points through a weighted fusion model, generating an initial path solution. The solution is a sequence of path points, represented as , of which each It is a three-dimensional coordinate point. Among them, the weighted fusion model dynamically fuses the multi-sensor input data... The weights of each sensor are:

[0108] ;

[0109] in, Indicates the task time. This indicates energy consumption, used to evaluate and filter pathways. , The weighting coefficients are used to update the position of the solution in CFOA. ;

[0110] Secondly, the solution is iterated. During the iteration, the position update formula is used to update the solution. The position update formula is:

[0111] ;

[0112] in, As a tendency factor, it controls the intensity with which an individual learns towards the current optimal solution. As a disturbance factor, it controls the strength of random disturbances; for example, the random disturbance term. , For the updated path solution, For the current generation's path solution, This is the optimal path solution found in the entire population.

[0113] By continuously iterating and updating, we find solutions with lower fitness and generate compensation path solutions. .

[0144] Example 1

[0145] To verify the effectiveness of the fusion algorithm in UAV path planning, multiple fire scenarios were constructed for testing. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The flight trajectories of the drone swarm in the experiment were shown.

[0146] To quantitatively evaluate the performance of different path planning strategies in dynamic fire environments, traditional A... The core differences between the algorithm, Information Acquisition Optimizer (IAO), Fishing Optimization Algorithm (CFOA), and the IAO-CFOA fusion algorithm are discussed. Experiments were conducted in a simulated complex fire environment that integrates dynamically spreading fire sources, random obstacles, and non-uniform wind interference.

[0147] From the basic performance analysis of path planning, A While the paths generated by the algorithm possess structural stability, their path length and task completion time are the longest among all compared algorithms, especially exhibiting sluggish performance in complex scenarios such as forest and industrial fires. The algorithm's inherent grid search mode struggles to effectively adapt to dynamic changes in the fire scene and lacks real-time response capabilities to sudden fires and obstacles. The IAO algorithm alone significantly shortens task completion time through dynamic information filtering and adaptive adjustment mechanisms. However, due to its limitations in group collaboration and global optimization, the total length of the paths planned by IAO is not optimal. In contrast, the CFOA algorithm alone demonstrates superior global exploration capabilities, but its convergence speed relies on population iteration and random search, thus creating a bottleneck in computational efficiency, resulting in a slightly slower task completion time compared to the IAO algorithm.

[0148] The IAO-CFOA fusion algorithm forms a complementary and collaborative mechanism. The IAO component, acting as the front-end perception and rapid response unit, processes environmental information in real time and makes preliminary dynamic adjustments to the path, effectively avoiding invalid search intervals that CFOA might encounter. The CFOA component, acting as the back-end optimization engine, performs in-depth development and fine-tuning based on the high-quality solution space provided by IAO, ultimately generating a global path that is superior in both path length and energy efficiency. Experimental data shows that this fusion strategy achieves optimal levels in both total path length and task completion time, achieving a balance between planning efficiency and solution quality.

[0149] The group collaboration mechanism within the fusion algorithm avoids path conflicts and uneven resource allocation that may occur with multiple drones, thereby improving task execution efficiency at the system level. For example... Figure 6 As shown, the UAV swarm using the IAO-CFOA fusion algorithm for collaborative path planning exhibits significantly higher firefighting support efficiency than other comparative groups. The IAO-CFOA fusion algorithm enables the overall planning of swarm collaborative behavior, allowing multiple UAVs to execute tasks in a highly coordinated manner, significantly shortening the overall firefighting time and improving task completion.

[0150] Example 2

[0151] Using Monte Carlo simulation on traditional A The proposed fusion algorithm was used to simulate the planning paths of the algorithm, the Information Acquisition Optimizer (IAO), the Fishing Optimization Algorithm (CFOA), and the IAO-CFOA fusion algorithm. The Monte Carlo simulation data are shown in Table 1. The prevention efficiency of the proposed fusion algorithm is significantly higher than that of the baseline method, with an overall improvement of 11%-30%.

[0152] The classification of northern and southern forest regions in the table is based on the "Classification of Forest Fire Risk Zones in China" standard issued by the National Forestry and Grassland Administration. The northern forest region is represented by the temperate natural forest region of Northeast China, while the southern forest region is represented by the subtropical planted forest regions of Southwest and South China. Forest restoration year data are taken from the "China's Forest and Grassland Resources and Ecological Status" published by the National Forestry and Grassland Administration. The restoration cycle of northern natural forests is approximately 40 years, influenced by vegetation type, climate conditions, and ecological restoration rate. Southern planted forests have a relatively simpler community structure and higher restoration efficiency, with a restoration cycle of approximately 15 years.

[0153] The mean fire area is a statistical result of the average burned area of ​​a single fire in the northern and southern forest areas over the past 10 years. The standard deviation is the fluctuation range of the fire area scenario simulated based on the IAO-CFOA fusion algorithm, combined with factors such as the complexity of forest terrain, vegetation flammability, fire spread patterns, and spatial heterogeneity of historical fires. It is a quantitative characterization of the uncertainty of fire spread. The prevention efficiency is the statistical mean of Monte Carlo simulations under a specified number of experiments, calculated using the indicator function method. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0154] ;

[0155] In the formula, Indicates the critical time for a fire to spiral out of control. Represented as the first The response time of the fusion algorithm in this simulation This is an indicator function.

[0156] The carbon emission factor is scientifically derived based on the carbon emission accounting standards in the IPCC report "2021 Climate Change: The Natural Science Basis". The accounting formula is as follows:

[0157] ;

[0158] in, This is the baseline data for forest carbon density in the North and South Forest Regions published by the IPCC. For the forest restoration cycle in the forest area, The fire spread area coefficient is 0.9 for natural forests and 1.2 for planted forests. CF=3.667 is the standard conversion coefficient from carbon to carbon dioxide. The standard deviation of the index is a comprehensive correction value that combines the spatial variation of regional carbon density, the fluctuation of fire scenarios, and the differences in vegetation types.

[0159] The carbon sequestration rate was derived using the IPCC-recommended baseline value for annual carbon sequestration rates in East Asian temperate and subtropical forests, and was further localized by considering the climate characteristics, vegetation growth rate, stand structure, and ecosystem carbon sequestration capacity of the northern and southern forest regions. Among these, southern plantations have shorter growth cycles and higher carbon sequestration efficiency, resulting in higher carbon sequestration rates than northern natural forests. The standard deviation of this indicator is a quantitative result of the differences in carbon sequestration capacity under different stand types and site conditions within the region.

[0160] Simulation parameters include the fire zone extent. (Unit: hectares), Regional carbon density (Unit: tons of carbon per hectare) and number of simulations (For example Second-rate).

[0161] Fire area The fire boundary can be calculated by combining the fire scene boundary detected by drones with GIS topographic data. In the simulation, it can be set as a random variable that follows a normal distribution, for example... , indicating an average area of ​​1000 hectares and a standard deviation of 200 hectares.

[0162] carbon density Based on forest type (north / south), for example, northern forest is... Tons of carbon per hectare, Southern forests are Tons of carbon per hectare.

[0163] The ecological benefits of fire rescue are assessed using an evaluation model, where the average net emission reduction is calculated for N simulations. and standard deviation And set a 95% confidence interval, the formula is:

[0164] Confidence interval = .

[0165] Table 1 Monte Carlo simulation data

[0166]

[0167] Although the disaster prevention effectiveness of forests in the south is significantly inferior to that in the north, this is mainly due to the predominantly planted forests in the south—areas prone to fires and with relatively high carbon exchange rates. Therefore, a multi-machine collaborative model should be adopted in southern forest areas to improve disaster prevention efficiency. Figure 7 This shows the distribution of net emission reduction probability of forest systems in different regions of China. Figure 8 This reveals the relationship between the disaster prevention efficiency of the environmental system and net emission reduction.

[0168] Therefore, this invention employs the aforementioned UAV path planning system based on forest fire intervention. It utilizes the IAO algorithm to improve the dynamic fusion of multi-sensor data, enhancing environmental perception accuracy, and uses the CFOA algorithm to compensate for path calculation errors in real time, reducing transmission errors. The IAO-CFOA fusion algorithm effectively overcomes the limitations of traditional UAV path planning algorithms in dynamic wildfire environments. The coupling strategy is superior to traditional algorithms, achieving high fire source coverage in dynamic scenarios, improving response speed and flight stability. At the same time, it further quantifies the ecological benefits of UAV intervention systems in different regions, providing a supplement to the dynamic research on forest carbon sequestration.

[0169] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to the technical solutions of the present invention, and these modifications or equivalent substitutions cannot cause the modified technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
