Unmanned aerial vehicle-based express delivery delivering system and method

Abstract

The invention discloses an unmanned aerial vehicle-based express delivery delivering system and method. The unmanned aerial vehicle-based express delivery delivering system comprises a ground control center, an unmanned aerial vehicle group and an intelligent express delivery cabinet net. During delivering processes, an express delivery company sends an express delivery delivering request to the ground control center, a specific intelligent express delivery cabinet is generated for the order, and a task flight route is generated for an unmanned aerial vehicle. After reaching a target position, the unmanned aerial vehicle applies to the express delivery cabinet for communication verification; after passing the verification, the unmanned aerial vehicle switches to a visual positioning module if the express delivery cabinet is unoccupied; after positioning operation is performed successfully, an electronic door of the express delivery cabinet is automatically opened, and the unmanned aerial vehicle hovers or lands on a landing stage for delivery operation. Deliveries can be transmitted to pre-distributed compartment by the intelligent express delivery cabinet, pick-up codes are generated and sent to users, and the users can pick up the deliveries based on the pick-up codes. Current express delivery delivering efficiency can be greatly improved via the unmanned aerial vehicle-based express delivery delivering system and method, manpower cost and time cost can be lowered, and security and privacy of express delivery can be well guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of logistics transportation and unmanned aerial vehicle applications, in particular to an express delivery system and method based on an unmanned aerial vehicle. Background technique [0002] At present, the existing express delivery methods can be divided into long-distance, medium-distance and short-distance delivery. Among them, long-distance delivery can use vehicles with heavy loads, such as trains, planes, etc. Medium distance can use small means of transportation, its transportation efficiency is relatively high, and the cost is also low, but for the delivery of short-distance express delivery, that is, the so-called last five kilometers of express delivery, it is basically delivered by manpower. When the express delivery arrives at the express company, The courier needs to register, sort, and deliver the parcels. Most of the couriers need the courier to deliver the goods to a centralized point in the custome...

Medium distance can use small means of transportation, its transportation efficiency is relatively high, and the cost is also low, but for the delivery of short-distance express delivery, that is, the so-called last five kilometers of express delivery, it is basically delivered by manpower. When the express delivery arrives at the express company, The courier needs to register, sort, and deliver the parcels. Most of the couriers need the courier to deliver the goods to a centralized point in the customer area, and notify the customer to pick up the package by text message or phone call. The courier has a heavy workload. And it takes a long time to wait for the customer to pick up the package, which consumes a lot of manpower and material resources, and the delivery efficiency of the express delivery is also low. series of questions
