That is, the flight information is transmitted from the central control server to the unmanned airplane before the unmanned airplane flew to the management area, and the unmanned airplane assigns the unmanned airplane a route point that is a flight path of the unmanned airplane.
At this time, the flight information includes information about one or more route points included in the management area, and the route point is located at more than one point in the management area where the managed object is located.
That is, the central control server transmits to the microcomputer of the unmanned airplane the flight information including one or more route points required for managing a plurality of managed objects located in the management area, and the microcomputer of the unmanned airplane, After storing the flight information in the database, the microcomputer controls the flight of the unmanned airplane based on the stored flight information to essentially fly the route point.
At this time, the unmanned airplane flying at the route point acquires the managed object identification number included in the sensor device attached to the managed object, stores it in the database connected to the micom of the unmanned airplane, or transmits it to the central control server.
In addition, the microcomputer of the unmanned aerial vehicle that acquires the managed object identification number as described above not only acquires the information on the managed object identification number, but also associates the acquired managed object identification number with the location information of the managed object, Time information at the time of acquiring the water identification number, information about the communication method of the sensor device attached to the object to be managed, or the like can be further calculated or acquired and stored in the database or transmitted to the central control server.

The flight information may further include flight altitude information for controlling the flight altitude of the UAV according to the communication method of each sensor device attached to the managed object located at the route point of the management area.
Specifically, when the communication method of the sensor device attached to the object to be managed located in the management area is composed of a plurality of communication methods, the object to which the sensor device having the different communication method is attached, Information for improving the communication between the sensor device attached to the object to be managed and the sensor reader provided in the unmanned airplane by changing the flight altitude of the unmanned airplane according to a certain portion of the managed area.
That is, when the sensor device attached to the object to be managed is composed of an RFID communication method, a WiFi communication method, and a short-range wireless communication method using BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy), the communication distance of the sensor devices is determined by RFID communication method <WiFi communication method And the short range wireless communication method using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). At this time, the unmanned air vehicle equipped with the sensor reader adjusts the flight altitude using the flight altitude information, So that it is possible to obtain a more improved communication performance.
That is, the flight altitude information further includes sensor type information for each communication method of sensor devices attached to each of a plurality of managed objects located at a plurality of route points, and the microcomputer of the unmanned air vehicle uses the sensor type information, It is possible to check the sensor type of the sensor device according to the route point so that the unmanned airplane can fly so as to be capable of communicating with the corresponding sensor device.
At this time, when the sensor device of a different communication method is attached to each of the plurality of managed objects located at one of the plurality of route points in the management area, And the sensor reader of the unmanned aerial vehicle is able to acquire the identification number of the entire object to be managed located at the route point.
Of course, it should be apparent that the UAV must not fly at a higher flight altitude than the communication distance of the sensor device having the maximum communication distance among the plurality of communication type sensor devices.
The process of delivering the managed object information located in the management area to the central control server through the unmanned air vehicle having the above configuration is as follows.
That is, the unmanned airplane is a requesting step in which the control unit of the unmanned aerial vehicle microcomputer generates a managed object identification number request signal; The managed object identification number request signal is transmitted to the sensor reader, and the sensor reader converts the managed object identification number request signal into a managed object identification number request signal according to the communication method of each sensor device, A collection step of collecting a managed object identification number of the sensor device after generating the converted managed object identification number request signal to one or more sensor devices located in the sensor device; And a transfer step of transferring the collected management object identification number to the control unit of the microcomputer and the microcomputer transmitting the management object identification number to the central control server. It can be forwarded to the central control server.
The sensor device attached to the object to be managed can be divided into an active method, a semi-active method and a passive method depending on the power supply method of the sensor device. An active sensor device attached to the managed object has a power source including a battery itself and periodically sends the managed identification number so that the sensor reader of the unmanned airplane receives the signal and transmits the information to the microcomputer. In addition, the semi-active and passive sensor devices receive the transmitted power from the sensor reader to the antenna, and then transmit the identification number of the managed object. The sensor reader of the unmanned airplane can receive and manage the identification number of the purgant from these various sensor devices.
Specifically, the requesting step is a step in which the controller of the unmanned aerial vehicle microcomputer generates a request signal for requesting the managed object identification number. That is, when the UAV is adjacent to the route point included in the flight information received from the central control server before the flight of the UAV, the controller of the microcomputer generates the UAV signal and sends it to the sensor reader.
When a single sensor reader is configured to collectively implement a plurality of communication methods, the managed object identification number request signal generated by the controller of the microcomputer is transmitted to the sensor reader as it is In the case where the sensor reader is constituted by a plurality of sensor readers capable of implementing the respective communication methods, only the sensor reader having the same communication method as the sensor device attached to the managed object located in the route area Signal. ≪ / RTI >
It will be appreciated that when a plurality of sensor devices having different communication methods are located at any one of the path points, the managed object identification number request signal must be transmitted to the plurality of sensor devices.
In the collecting step, the managed object identification number request signal is transmitted to the sensor reader, and the sensor reader transmits the managed object identification number request signal to the managed object identification number request signal according to the communication method of each sensor device And transmits the converted identification number request signal to at least one sensor device located in the vicinity of the unmanned airplane to collect the identification number of the sensor device.
At this time, the managed object identification number request signal converted by the sensor reader is converted into a frequency of the communication method corresponding to the communication method of the sensor device located at the path point, and is oscillated to the sensor device.
In addition, the sensor device that receives the request signal of the managed object number includes the previously stored managed object identification number in the requested identification number of the managed object, and returns it to the sensor reader. The sensor reader reads the returned managed object identification number And receives the included identification number request signal to collect the managed identification number of the sensor device.
In addition, when the sensor device is constituted by a radio frequency oscillation capable communication method including an identification number of the managed object that can notify itself of its existence, A sensor reader of an unmanned aerial vehicle may directly receive a radio frequency including an identification number of a managed object.
Thereafter, in the transmitting step, the sensor reader transmits the collected object identification number to the controller of the microcomputer, and the microcomputer transmits the object identification number to the central control server, And acquiring the managed object information.
In addition, the microcomputer may transmit the managed object identification number acquired from the sensor reader directly to the central control server, or may transmit the location information of the managed object, time information at the time of acquiring the managed object identification number, Information on the communication method of the mobile communication terminal can be further calculated and stored in a database connected to the microcomputer or transmitted to the central control server.
At this time, the location information of the managed object and the time information at the time of acquiring the managed object identification number can be generated by associating the acquired satellite coordinates and the satellite time acquired from the satellite navigation apparatus provided with the unmanned airplane with the obtained managed object identification number have.
Further, the managed object information may be included in the managed object identification number as additional information such as the type and quantity of the managed object, the arrival time, the scheduled departure time, the input time of the manpower, the expected time of withdrawal of the manpower, The database of the central control server stores additional information such as the type, quantity, arrival time, estimated time of release, input time of personnel or expected time of withdrawal of personnel from the controlled object, and the central control server stores the additional information It is possible to obtain necessary managed information by matching the managed identification number with the stored additional information.
In addition, between the unmanned air vehicle and the central control server, one or more communication base stations for communicating the unmanned air vehicle and the central control server may be further included.
That is, the unmanned aircraft and the central control server can communicate with each other by a general wireless communication method, and when a building or a structure that causes communication disturbance in a management area is located, one or more communication base stations Can be installed.
In this case, the communication base station may be configured to be capable of communicating in at least one of a short-range wireless communication, a wireless mobile phone communication, and an internet communication through a wireless LAN, and a concrete communication base station configuration capable of realizing the above- A known technique can be applied.
In addition, the unmanned airplane can be configured to fly at a flight point where a cause of flight interruption occurs when the unmanned airplane crash causes the suspension.
In other words, the unmanned airplane flying in the management area may not be able to fly for mission execution. In contrast, the present invention can be applied to an unmanned airplane performing missions, such as a failure of a driving device, a failure of a global positioning system (GPS) , Failure of the wireless communication device, or receipt of the flight stop command by the central control server, it is possible to fly at the spot where the cause of the flight interruption occurs.
At this time, the atmospheric flight refers to a state in which the power supply to the unmanned airplane is minimized and the vehicle is flying in a hovering state.
Also, the unmanned airplane can continuously fly after the cause of the stoppage is restored by the automatic recovery function of the microcomputer of the UAV or the recovery by the central control server. At this time, the automatic restoration function of the microcomputer is performed by controlling the signals such as the flight control signal, the sensor reader operation signal, the satellite navigation device operation signal or the operation signal of the wireless communication device for the driver for flight of the UAV, It is a function that the microcomputer can automatically calculate, judge, control and recover when a cause of flight interruption occurs due to an electronic problem.
In addition, the recovery by the central control server causes the flight disconnection reason to be transmitted to the central control server when the reason for the flight interruption occurs in the unmanned airplane, and the microprocessor or the manager of the central control server transmits the programming information for restoring the cause of the flight interruption to the unmanned airplane To solve the electronic problem of the unmanned aerial vehicle.
In the event of flight interruption due to failure of a physical device such as a failure of a driving device, a sensor reader failure, a failure of a sensor, or a failure of a wireless communication device, the automatic recovery function of the unmanned airplane microcomputer or the center It is difficult to solve the problem by the method of restoration by the control server. Therefore, when the flight is possible, it is configured to return to the first starting point of the unmanned airplane or the central control station where the central control server is located. It can be configured to make an emergency landing after the parachute is deployed.
Especially, when the unmanned airplane in the waiting flight lacks the power for the atmospheric flight and the cause of the flight interruption is the failure of the GPS (global positioning system), the unmanned airplane is deployed in the unmanned airplane, .
If the unmanned airplane in the waiting flight lacks power for airplane flight, it may be configured to return to the first starting point of the unmanned airplane or to the central control station where the center pipe server is located. Of course, it should be clear that the reason for the flight stopping of the UAV that returns to the central station where the initial departure point or the central terminal server is located should not be caused by the failure of the device for flight.
The following is a preferred embodiment for managing goods and manpower using the system according to the present invention.
Firstly, the management area is an outside yard of a factory that forms a certain area, and the raw material for producing the product and the manufactured product are loaded on the yard. In addition, a sensor device such as a short-range wireless communication method using Bluetooth low energy (BLE), an RFID communication method, or a WiFi communication method is attached to the raw materials and products.
