All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
The current unmanned aerial vehicle often can appear the circumstances that transmission data was interrupted in the operation in-process, and control terminal can't be according to this corresponding transmission data control unmanned aerial vehicle presents corresponding operation to unmanned aerial vehicle operation is interrupted, leads to unmanned aerial vehicle operating efficiency lower.
The inventor researches and discovers that the existing unmanned aerial vehicle can generally adopt a communication mode of microwave image transmission, an unmanned aerial vehicle operator can remotely control the ground end of the sight distance range, or adopts a 4G/5G cellular communication mode, can remotely control and watch real-time video, or adopts a transmission bandwidth of the microwave image transmission mode to transmit data with higher precision requirements, such as clear video data, but has a short transmission distance, and is easy to disconnect after being blocked; although the 4G cellular network can be controlled remotely, the bandwidth is limited, the transmitted real-time video has low definition, and the connection is easy to break in areas with poor signal coverage; although 5G can transmit large bandwidth video signals, coverage is insufficient and industrial-scale 5G chips are still immature.
Based on the above, the unmanned aerial vehicle communication method and device based on the microwave image transmission and the cellular network provided by the embodiment of the invention are used for switching to the communication mode with stronger signal for data transmission by collecting and evaluating the signal intensity in real time so as to ensure that the data transmission of the unmanned aerial vehicle is not interrupted and further ensure the operation efficiency of the unmanned aerial vehicle.
For the sake of understanding the present embodiment, first, a detailed description is given of a method for communication between unmanned aerial vehicles based on microwave image transmission and cellular network disclosed in the present embodiment.
Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of an unmanned aerial vehicle communication method based on a microwave image transmission and a cellular network according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1, a method for unmanned aerial vehicle communication based on microwave image transmission and cellular network is applied to unmanned aerial vehicle equipment, and mainly comprises the following steps:
step S102, acquiring microwave image transmission signals and cellular network signals in real time.
The embodiment of the invention adopts corresponding base stations and other laying equipment to cover the microwave and cellular networks to a certain range. For example, the microwave map signaling signals may be collected by a microwave map signaling module of the drone, which may be implemented by a cellular network module.
The microwave image transmission can be understood as a wireless transmission mode of data such as images realized by a microwave technology.
Step S104, the microwave map transmission signal and the cellular network signal are evaluated respectively, and the first signal intensity corresponding to the microwave map transmission signal and the second signal intensity corresponding to the cellular network signal are obtained.
It will be appreciated that the signal strengths of the microwave-image signal and the cellular network signal are evaluated here, respectively.
Step S106, if the signal difference between the first signal strength and the second signal strength exceeds the preset signal strength threshold, switching to the target communication mode with higher signal strength in the first signal strength and the second signal strength for communication.
It should be noted that, the communication mode with the higher signal intensity of the first signal intensity and the second signal intensity is used as the target communication mode, and is switched to the target communication mode, for example, if the difference between the first signal intensity and the second signal intensity exceeds the preset signal intensity threshold, and the first signal intensity is higher than the second signal intensity at this time, the microwave image transmission mode corresponding to the first signal intensity has a better effect, and the microwave image transmission mode is used as the target communication mode, and is switched to the mode, and if the second signal intensity is higher than the first signal intensity, the process is similar to the above process, and the description is omitted here.
It should be noted that the signal strength of both the microwave-patterned signal and the cellular network signal can be collectively represented by a reference signal received power (Reference Signal Receiving Power, RSRP), which typically ranges from-105 dBm to-65 dBm. As an alternative embodiment, the preset signal strength threshold is 2dBm, and if the signal strengths of the two signals differ by more than 2dBm, the transmission mode is switched to a better transmission mode.
In a preferred embodiment of practical application, based on a microwave image signal acquired in real time and a cellular network signal, signal intensities of the microwave image signal and the cellular network signal are evaluated respectively, first signal intensities and second signal intensities of the microwave image signal and the cellular network signal are compared, if the difference of the signal intensities of the microwave image signal and the cellular network signal is larger and exceeds a preset signal intensity threshold, the effect of the communication mode with higher signal intensity is considered to be better, the communication mode is determined to be a target communication mode, the current communication mode of the unmanned aerial vehicle is switched to the target communication mode, the switching process can be performed in real time in the unmanned aerial vehicle operation process, the current communication modes of the unmanned aerial vehicle are guaranteed to be better in signal intensity, and further data transmission interruption is avoided, so that the problem of lower unmanned aerial vehicle operation efficiency is caused.
In some embodiments, step S104 may also be implemented by:
step 1.1), evaluating the microwave map signal through a microwave map transmission module in the unmanned aerial vehicle to obtain a first signal strength corresponding to the microwave map signal.
Step 1.2), evaluating the cellular network signal through a cellular network module in the unmanned aerial vehicle to obtain a second signal strength corresponding to the cellular network signal.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the microwave image transmission module and the cellular network module assembled in the unmanned aerial vehicle equipment are used for respectively evaluating the respective signal intensities, and then the evaluated signal intensity results are sent to the control terminal, so that the subsequent operation is realized, and the computing capacity of the control terminal is saved.
In other embodiments, step S104 may be further implemented by:
step 2.1), transmitting the microwave map signal to a control terminal through a microwave map transmission module in the unmanned aerial vehicle, so that the control terminal evaluates and obtains a first signal intensity corresponding to the microwave map signal;
and 2.2), transmitting the cellular network signal to a control terminal through a cellular network module in the unmanned aerial vehicle so as to enable the control terminal to evaluate and obtain second signal intensity corresponding to the cellular network signal, wherein the microwave image transmission module and the cellular network module do not have a signal evaluation function.
In the practical application scene, in order to improve the reliability of signal transmission, the control terminal may evaluate the signal intensity of the corresponding signal sent by the microwave image transmission module and the cellular network module again, so as to ensure that the recognition and evaluation result of the signal intensity is more accurate.
In some embodiments, in order to save the power of the unmanned aerial vehicle or control the resources of the terminal, frequent switching operations on the unmanned aerial vehicle are not expected, and therefore, the method further includes:
step 3.1), if the first signal intensity and the second signal intensity are both within the preset signal intensity range, the original target communication mode is kept for communication.
Here, it should be noted that, in step S106, it may be understood that after the first signal strength and the second signal strength exceed the preset signal strength range and the difference between the two signal strengths exceeds the preset signal strength threshold, the communication mode is switched to the communication mode with the higher signal strength.
In some embodiments, before step S106, the method further includes:
step 4.1), determining a current to-be-selected communication mode according to the accuracy requirement of data transmission of the unmanned aerial vehicle;
because the image or video data with higher precision requirement needs to occupy larger transmission bandwidth, the microwave image transmission mode can be preferentially selected as the current to-be-selected communication mode. If the transmission data has a more general precision requirement, the cellular network communication mode can be used as the current to-be-selected communication mode.
And 4.2), judging whether the current to-be-selected communication mode is used as the target communication mode or not based on the signal strength corresponding to the current to-be-selected communication mode, and switching to the target communication mode.
The level of the signal strength of the current communication mode to be selected is estimated again to determine the final target communication mode to be switched. According to the process of the foregoing embodiment, it may be determined whether the signal strength of the current to-be-selected communication mode is within a preset signal strength range; if yes, determining the current communication mode to be selected as a target communication mode, and switching to the target communication mode; if the communication mode does not exist, comparing the signal intensity of the current communication mode to be selected with the signal intensity of the rest communication mode (if the current communication mode to be selected is microwave image transmission, the rest communication mode is a cellular network and vice versa), and selecting the communication mode with higher signal intensity as the target communication mode. It will be appreciated that the transmission of communication signals is guaranteed to be uninterrupted in preference to being able to meet the transmission accuracy requirements.
As an alternative embodiment, when the transmission accuracy requirement is high in order to ensure that the transmission signal is not interrupted, the method further includes:
step 5.1), if the accuracy requirement of the unmanned aerial vehicle transmission data reaches a preset accuracy threshold, and the first signal intensity and the second signal intensity are both in a preset signal intensity range, switching to a microwave image transmission communication mode with higher accuracy for communication.
In some practical applications, the method further comprises the following steps:
and 6.1), controlling corresponding operation of the unmanned aerial vehicle based on unmanned aerial vehicle transmission data received by a target communication mode.
The control terminal can control the unmanned aerial vehicle to fly to a corresponding position, collect images or spray pesticides and the like according to the transmission data received by the target communication mode. The control terminal may be an intelligent terminal of a worker, a ground station control terminal, or a control device integrated in the control terminal, etc., and may be capable of implementing the control function in the embodiment of the present invention, which is not limited herein.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the microwave image transmission and the cellular 4G/5G network are combined, and the unmanned aerial vehicle has the capabilities of image transmission and 4G/5G communication; and selecting a proper communication mode adaptively according to the signal intensity to transmit data and images. As an alternative embodiment, microwave image transmission communication can be preferentially used, high-definition video data transmission is guaranteed, when an unmanned aerial vehicle flies out of a microwave image transmission range or microwave image transmission is blocked due to physical shielding, the microwave image transmission signal intensity can be lowered, the mode is automatically switched to a 4G/5G cellular network communication mode, the transmission definition is adaptively lowered, the requirement of 4G/5G communication bandwidth is met, and the continuity of the transmission data is guaranteed.
In addition, the embodiment of the invention ensures the normal transmission of the unmanned aerial vehicle signal by combining the 4G/5G cellular network and the microwave image transmission, expands the operation range of the unmanned aerial vehicle, not only absorbs the advantage of high-definition image transmission in the range of the high-definition image transmission line of sight, but also utilizes the characteristic that the cellular network is not limited by the distance, thereby improving the utilization value of the unmanned aerial vehicle.
