无人机软管式自主空中加油视觉导航技术

近年来,机器视觉技术的迅速发展给无人机自主空中加油提供了一种新思路,克服了传统GPS动态适应能力差的不足。基于双目视觉,提出了一种实用的无人机自主空中加油导航方案,并提出了一种利用深度学习进行检测跟踪配合几何约束进行位姿计算的技术。根据加油机和受油机距离的不同,将导航分为远端导航和近端导航。全程对加油锥套进行检测和跟踪,并在近端进行锥套位姿计算。实验结果表明,该算法满足加油的鲁棒性要求,稳定跟踪锁定目标距离范围大于40m。当与目标距离小于10m时,距离误差优于±10cm。说明本文提出的方法具有较强的应用前景。     

基于Leader-Follower编队的无人机协同跟踪地面目标制导律设计

对地面目标的自动跟踪是无人机在任务应用阶段需要解决的重要问题之一,多无人机协同跟踪能够提高对目标运动状态的估计精度并降低目标丢失的概率,因而具有重要研究意义。本文提出了一种基于Leader-Follower编队的无人机协同跟踪制导方法,解决了传统Standoff跟踪模式对地面目标的速度范围限制问题。首先,通过控制无人机的航向不断趋近于地面目标牵连跟踪圆切线方向的方法设计了Leader无人机自动跟踪地面目标的制导律并完成了稳定性证明;其次,通过控制Follower无人机的速度和航向角逐渐趋近于Leader无人机速度和航向的协同跟踪策略,分别设计了Follower无人机自动跟踪Leader无人机的制导律和编队相位协同制导律并完成了稳定性证明;最后,分别针对静止目标、匀速直线运动目标和变速运动目标的跟踪问题进行了仿真验证,结果表明所提出的制导方法能够实现对不同运动状态地面目标的自动协同跟踪,并且跟踪性能优于基于李雅普诺夫向量法的制导方法。

Unmanned aerial vehicle swarm mission reliability modeling and evaluation method oriented to systematic and networked mission

With the development of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) system autonomy, network communication technology and group intelligence theory, mission execution in the form of a UAV swarm will be an important realization of future applications. Traditional single-UAV mission reliability modeling methods have been unable to meet the requirements of UAV swarm mission reliability modeling. Therefore, the UAV swarm mission reliability modeling and evaluation method is proposed. First, aimed at the interdependence among the multiple layers, a multi-layer network model of a UAV swarm is established. At the same time, based on the system having the following characteristics—using a mission chain to complete the mission and applying the connectivity of the mission network—the mission network model of a UAV swarm is established. Second, vulnerability and connectivity are selected as two indicators to reflect the reliability of the mission, and aimed at random attack and deliberate attack, vulnerability and connectivity evaluation methods are proposed. Finally, the validity and accuracy of the constructed model are verified through simulations, and the model and selected indicators can meet the reliability requirements of the UAV swarm mission. In this way, this study provides quantitative reference for UAV-swarm-related decision-making work and supports the development of UAV-swarm-related work.

一种基于多无人机的中继节点布置问题建模与优化方法

针对战场环境下急需在无法通信的节点间构建有效通信链路的情形,使用多无人机作为中继节点,建立了中继节点布置(RNP)问题模型。模型以中继链路有效和无人机安全为约束,以中继布置点位置及相应的无人机为输出,不但考虑了使用的中继无人机数量,还考虑了构建中继链路花费的时间。考虑到该问题是难以求解的混合整数多目标优化问题,同时在紧急应用情形下,要求求解算法快速有效,建立了一种多项式时间中继节点布置算法(PTRPA)。仿真实验验证了所提模型确实能够在更短的时间内完成有效中继链路构建;通过Monte-Carlo方法对比和分析不同因素对PTRPA算法、随机抽样算法、遗传算法求解该问题的结果性能和时间性能的影响,验证了PTRPA算法不但能够给出接近最优的解,且快速有效,满足战场决策需求。
