[0026] Obtain the difference between the interference index value and the stability index value, and determine the stability value of the functional index under the predicted radio signal interference based on the difference between the index values.

[0027] Based on the stability value, the current inspection path is adjusted.

[0028] Secondly, this application also provides an inspection path planning device, the device comprising:

[0043] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0044] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, a patrol path planning method is provided. This embodiment illustrates the method applied to a terminal. It is understood that this method can also be applied to a server, and further to a system including both a terminal and a server, and implemented through interaction between the terminal and the server. In this embodiment, the method includes the following steps:

[0045] S102. For historical inspection operations of power lines in the target area by the inspection equipment, acquire historical radio data of historical radio signals received by the inspection equipment during the historical inspection operations; wherein, the historical radio data includes the peak signal strength and peak duration of the historical radio signal.

[0046] Optionally, the inspection equipment may be, but is not limited to, drones; if the target area is an industrial park, and the total length of the power grid in the industrial park is 50 kilometers, including 35 kilometers of main lines and 15 kilometers of branch lines, then the power lines inspected in the historical inspection operation can be any part of the total power lines; the power lines inspected by the inspection equipment can be extracted from the electronic map.

[0047] Optionally, during the historical inspection operation performed by the inspection equipment, the radio receiving device mounted on the inspection equipment can continuously collect historical radio signals. For example, if the historical inspection operation was performed from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM on a certain day, during this period, the radio receiving device detected a total of 12 radio signals, including 3 2.4GHz signals transmitted by factory equipment, 5 900MHz signals transmitted by civilian radio equipment, and 4 unknown signals. Using a background signal filtering algorithm, authorized signals are removed from these 12 radio signals, leaving 5 target signals. Among these, the signal strengths of 3 target signals are -35dBm, -38dBm, and -32dBm, respectively, all exceeding the preset threshold of -40dBm. The authorized signals can be, but are not limited to, base station signals. These 5 target signals are then converted into radio data, which can be, but is not limited to, radio data. The data includes the transmission frequency, reception time, and signal strength of radio signals. For example, a 2.4 GHz target signal has a transmission frequency of 2400 MHz and a signal strength of -35 dBm at 8:30:00. By continuously monitoring the 2.4 GHz target signal, it was found that the signal strength of this target signal fluctuated drastically between 9:00 and 10:00. During this period, the signal strength rose from -50 dBm to -30 dBm, and the peak value repeated every 15 minutes. By recording the signal strength changes of this target signal during this period as a change curve, it was found that the peak duration of the target signal was 2 minutes, and the fluctuation amplitude reached 20 dBm. By analyzing the radio data of all target signals during the inspection period, radio change data including the signal strength change rate, fluctuation period, peak signal strength, and peak duration were finally obtained.

[0048] S104. Based on historical radio data, obtain the signal disturbance amount of the historical radio signal, the spatial range covered by the signal disturbance amount, and the distance between the inspection equipment and the transmitting equipment that transmitted the historical radio signal. Based on the signal disturbance amount, spatial range, and distance, determine the first interference assessment value of the inspection equipment being interfered with by the historical radio signal.

[0049] Specifically, for any radio signal transmitted by a transmitting device, the actual strength of the radio signal received by the inspection device is determined, and the reference strength of the radio signal transmitted by the transmitting device is determined when the transmitting device is not interfered with and the signal transmission process is not interfered with. The signal disturbance is the strength difference between the actual strength and the reference strength. For example, if the transmitting device is factory equipment, the interference experienced by the transmitting device can be the frequent start-up and shutdown of the equipment. The interference assessment value is used to assess the degree of impact of the radio signal received by the inspection device on the inspection process of the inspection device when at least one of the interferences exists, namely, interference to the transmitting device or interference to the signal transmission process.

[0050] Optionally, a multi-band joint scan is performed on the five target signals, wherein the transmission frequencies of the five target signals are 2400MHz, 900MHz, 2400MHz, 850MHz, and 2400MHz, respectively. Using a spectrum analyzer, three of the five target signals are identified as being distributed in the 2.4GHz band, one in the 900MHz band, and one in the 850MHz band, forming a frequency band set. Radio data of the target signals within each frequency band is extracted, and the signal disturbance amount for the corresponding frequency band is calculated based on the radio data. The spatial range covered by the signal disturbance amount is then determined; for example, the signal disturbance amount in the 2.4GHz band is 15. The signal disturbance in the 2.4 GHz band is 8 dB, and the spatial range covered by the signal disturbance is 200 meters. The signal disturbance in the 900 MHz band is 8 dB, and the spatial range covered by the signal disturbance is 50 meters. Based on the signal disturbance, spatial range, and distance between the inspection equipment and the transmitting equipment, the first interference assessment value of the target signal in each frequency band is determined. The three frequency bands are sorted in descending order of the first interference assessment value, and the target signal in each frequency band is detected in the order from front to back according to the sorting result. For example, the detection priority of the 2.4 GHz band is the highest, the detection priority of the 900 MHz band is the second highest, and the detection priority of the 850 MHz band is the lowest.

[0051] S106. Obtain the interference tolerance of the inspection equipment, and based on the interference tolerance, peak signal strength and peak duration, determine the second interference assessment value of the inspection equipment affected by historical radio signal interference.

[0052] Interference tolerance refers to the maximum interference signal strength that the inspection equipment can withstand without affecting its function.

[0053] Optionally, the intensity difference between the interference tolerance and the peak signal strength, the peak duration, and the detection priority of the frequency band where the radio signal is located can be used as the coordinate values ​​of the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis in the three-dimensional coordinate system, respectively. The second interference evaluation value is determined based on the region where the coordinate point formed by the intensity difference, peak duration, and detection priority is located in the three-dimensional coordinate system.

[0054] S108. Plan the current inspection path for the power lines to be inspected in the target area, and predict the interference hotspot change map of the transmitting equipment based on historical radio data; wherein, the interference hotspot change map represents the spatial distribution and signal disturbance timing characteristics of the radio signals transmitted by the transmitting equipment.

[0055] Optionally, based on historical radio data, the spatial distribution of predicted radio data during the inspection process of the inspection equipment along the current inspection path can be predicted, and an interference heat map can be drawn based on the spatial distribution. For example, if a radio signal with a frequency in the 2.4 GHz band forms a high-intensity interference zone in a certain area of ​​the target area with a coverage radius of 200 meters, an interference heat map of this high-intensity interference zone can be drawn. By combining the interference heat map and the time series of predicted radio data, an interference heat map change map can be generated.

[0056] S110. When there is an overlap between the current inspection path and the interference hot zone change map, predict the electric field strength of the overlapping part when the inspection equipment is located in the corresponding spatial area of ​​the interference hot zone change map, and adjust the current inspection path based on the first interference assessment value, the second interference assessment value and the predicted electric field strength.

[0057] Optionally, based on the first and second interference assessment values, the interference risk level of historical radio signals to the inspection equipment is first determined. The higher the interference risk level, the greater the degree of interference to the inspection equipment. If the current state of the inspection equipment is standby and it has not yet started inspection, and the interference risk level is high, it is determined that the inspection equipment cannot start inspection immediately. Subsequently, the changes in the predicted electric field strength of the overlapping part in the interference hotspot change map are analyzed. If it is predicted that the predicted electric field strength will decrease and the interference risk level will decrease in a certain period of the future, the inspection equipment is scheduled to perform the inspection task in that period. If the current inspection equipment is already in the inspection state and the interference risk level is high, an inspection path adjustment request is sent to the control console to adjust the current inspection path to avoid high interference areas.

[0058] In the aforementioned inspection path planning method, for historical inspection operations conducted by the inspection equipment on power lines within the target area, historical radio data of historical radio signals received by the inspection equipment during these operations is obtained. This historical radio data includes the peak signal strength and peak duration of the historical radio signals. Based on this historical radio data, the signal disturbance amount, the spatial range covered by the disturbance, and the distance between the inspection equipment and the transmitting equipment emitting the historical radio signals are obtained. Based on the signal disturbance amount, spatial range, and distance, a first interference assessment value for the inspection equipment due to historical radio signal interference is determined. The interference tolerance of the inspection equipment is then obtained, and based on… Based on interference tolerance, peak signal strength, and peak duration, a second interference assessment value for historical radio signal interference to the inspection equipment is determined. A current inspection path is planned for the power lines to be inspected within the target area, and an interference heat map of the transmitting equipment is predicted based on historical radio data. The interference heat map characterizes the spatial distribution and temporal characteristics of the radio signals emitted by the transmitting equipment. If there is overlap between the current inspection path and the interference heat map, the predicted electric field strength of the overlapping portion is predicted when the inspection equipment is located in the corresponding spatial region of the interference heat map. Based on the first interference assessment value, the second interference assessment value, and the predicted electric field strength, the current inspection path is adjusted. The method provided in this application, by adjusting the inspection path of the inspection equipment, enables the inspection equipment to avoid radio signals that may interfere with its inspection operations, thereby ensuring the safe and stable completion of the inspection work.

[0059] In some embodiments, historical radio data may also include the reception time of historical radio signals, as well as the rate of change of signal strength and fluctuation period of signal strength; obtaining the signal disturbance of historical radio signals includes: obtaining the signal disturbance based on signal strength, rate of change of signal strength, fluctuation period, peak duration and reception time.

[0060] Optionally, the signal disturbance amount can be determined first based on the signal strength of historical radio signals, and the signal strength and signal disturbance amount can be aligned based on the reception time. Then, the interference characteristics of the signal disturbance amount can be verified based on the rate of change of signal strength, fluctuation period, and peak duration. For example, the greater the rate of change of signal strength, the more severe the interference to the inspection equipment; the longer the peak duration, the greater the interference impact on the inspection equipment.

[0061] In this embodiment, the signal strength and signal disturbance are time-sequentially aligned based on the reception time to ensure data correlation and lay the foundation for interference characteristic analysis; combined with multi-parameter interpretation of the nature of interference, the accurate determination of interference impact is enhanced.

[0062] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2As shown, based on the signal disturbance amount, spatial range, and distance, the first interference assessment value of the inspection equipment due to historical radio signal interference is determined, including:

[0063] S202. Determine whether the inspection equipment is within the spatial range based on distance.

[0064] S204. If the inspection equipment is located within a spatial range, determine the location of the inspection equipment within the spatial range and the amount of signal disturbance at that location.

[0065] S206. Determine the interference evaluation coefficient based on the location, and determine the first interference evaluation value based on the interference evaluation coefficient and the signal disturbance at the location.

[0066] Optionally, the interference assessment coefficient characterizes the degree of influence of the signal disturbance of the inspection equipment; the first interference assessment value may be, but is not limited to, the product between the interference assessment coefficient and the signal disturbance. For example, if the signal disturbance of the historical radio signal in the 2.4 GHz band is 15 and the interference assessment coefficient is 5.7, then the first interference assessment value may be 85.

[0067] In this embodiment, spatial location is used as the core associated interference parameter to improve the targeting of the assessment; the position coefficient and disturbance amount are integrated to achieve a quantitative assessment of the interference impact.

[0068] In some embodiments, determining a second interference assessment value for the inspection equipment affected by historical radio signal interference based on interference tolerance, peak signal strength, and peak duration includes: obtaining the signal strength difference between the peak signal strength and the interference tolerance; and determining the product of the signal strength difference and the peak duration as the second interference assessment value.

[0069] Optionally, based on the previously determined frequency band detection priority, the radio signal in the 2.4 GHz band is detected first. The peak signal strength of the 2.4 GHz band radio signal between 9 and 10 o'clock is -30 dBm, and the duration of each peak is 2 minutes. The anti-interference capability of the inspection equipment is obtained from the manufacturing parameters of the inspection equipment. For example, if the UAV uses frequency hopping technology, the interference tolerance is -25 dBm. Then the second interference assessment value of the 2.4 GHz band radio signal can be (30-25)×2=10.

[0070] In this embodiment, interference tolerance and core signal characteristics are integrated to quantify the actual impact of interference, assess a more accurate assessment of the equipment's tolerance, and take into account both interference intensity and duration to comprehensively reflect the degree of interference hazard.

[0071] In some embodiments, adjusting the current inspection path based on a first interference assessment value, a second interference assessment value, and a predicted electric field strength includes: determining the interference risk level of historical radio signals to the inspection equipment based on the first and second interference assessment values; if the interference risk level is not greater than a level threshold, determining whether the predicted electric field strength at any predicted time during the predicted overlapping period in the spatial region where the inspection equipment is located is greater than an interference tolerance; if the predicted electric field strength is not greater than the interference tolerance, determining various functional indicators of the inspection equipment and the importance values ​​of the functional indicators during the operation of the inspection equipment; and adjusting the current inspection path based on the functional indicators and the importance values.

[0072] Optionally, the first interference assessment value and the second interference assessment value each correspond to multiple preset assessment ranges. The interference risk level can be determined by judging which preset assessment range the first interference assessment value and the second interference assessment value fall within. For example, the first interference assessment value corresponds to the first preset assessment range and the second preset assessment range, and the second interference assessment value corresponds to the third preset assessment range and the fourth preset assessment range. If the first interference assessment value is within the first preset assessment range and the second interference assessment value is within the third preset assessment range, or if the first interference assessment value is within the first preset assessment range and the second interference assessment value is within the fourth preset assessment range, the interference risk level is determined to be low. If the first interference assessment value is within the second preset assessment range and the second interference assessment value is within the third preset assessment range, or if the first interference assessment value is within the first preset assessment range and the second interference assessment value is within the fourth preset assessment range, the interference risk level is determined to be high.

[0073] In this embodiment, multi-dimensional fusion evaluation can improve the scientific nature of path adjustment; graded risk assessment can accurately screen adjustment scenarios and avoid over-adjustment.

[0074] In some embodiments, adjusting the current inspection path based on functional indicators and importance values ​​includes: for functional indicators whose importance values ​​are greater than a threshold, obtaining the interference index value of the functional indicator under predicted radio signal interference at the prediction time, and the stable index value when there is no radio signal interference; obtaining the index value difference between the interference index value and the stable index value, and determining the stability value of the functional indicator under predicted radio signal interference based on the index value difference; and adjusting the current inspection path based on the stability value.

[0075] Optionally, the functional indicators may include, but are not limited to, image transmission, positioning and navigation, and power monitoring. The functional indicators are sorted in descending order of importance, resulting in the following order: positioning and navigation, image transmission, and power monitoring. If the radio signal strength is -30dBm, the stability of positioning and navigation under this radio signal interference is 60%, image transmission is 70%, and power monitoring is 90%. If the corresponding stability thresholds for positioning and navigation, image transmission, and power monitoring are 80%, 85%, and 80%, respectively, then the stability values ​​for positioning and navigation, image transmission, and power monitoring are all below their respective thresholds, while the stability value for power monitoring is above its threshold. Since the stability values ​​of more than half of the functional indicators are below their corresponding thresholds, the current inspection path needs to be adjusted.

[0076] Optionally, if, during the inspection process along the current inspection path, more than 50% of the monitored functional indicators are found to have stability values ​​below the corresponding stability threshold, and the signal strength of the interfering radio signals received by the inspection equipment is higher than the interference tolerance, then the inspection equipment shall immediately stop the inspection process and return to the base as quickly as possible. If more than 50% of the monitored functional indicators are found to have stability values ​​below the corresponding stability threshold, but the signal strength of the interfering radio signals received by the inspection equipment is not higher than the interference tolerance, then the non-essential functions of the inspection equipment shall be shut down, only the basic functions required for inspection shall be maintained, and the inspection task shall continue to be performed.

[0077] In this embodiment, the focus is on core functional indicators, and the priority of path adjustment is precisely anchored to ensure key inspection capabilities; the path is adjusted according to the actual impact of interference on the function to improve the stability and reliability of inspection.

[0078] In one exemplary embodiment, another inspection path planning method is provided, including the following:

[0079] (1) Obtain the inspection range of the UAV, extract the route of the inspection range to obtain the inspection route range of the UAV; collect multiple wireless signals within the inspection route range, filter the background signals of the multiple wireless signals to obtain multiple target wireless signals, convert the multiple target wireless signals into signal data to obtain multiple radio data; monitor the multiple radio data within the inspection route range to obtain the change of each radio data; record the change of the radio data to generate a change curve, obtain the change law based on the change curve, and generate radio change data by combining the change law and the radio data.

[0080] (2) Perform multi-band joint scanning on the radio data to obtain the frequency bands mixed in the radio data, and aggregate the multiple frequency bands to generate the frequency band set of the radio data; extract the frequency band parameters of each frequency band in the frequency band set, and obtain the signal disturbance amount and signal disturbance range generated by each frequency band during use based on the frequency band parameters; perform frequency band interference assessment on each frequency band in the frequency band set based on the signal disturbance amount and signal disturbance range, and obtain the interference assessment value of each frequency band; perform priority identification on each frequency band in the frequency band set based on the interference assessment value, and obtain the detection priority of each frequency band.
