Return flight control system for unmanned plane cluster

Abstract

The invention relates to a return flight control system for an unmanned plane cluster, and the unmanned plane cluster comprises N unmanned planes, wherein the N unmanned planes are located in a hovering flight space. The system comprises a centralized control, and each of the N unmanned plane comprises a return flight control module, a first communication module, a second communication module, a controller, a switching module, a main battery and a standby power supply, wherein the return flight control module comprises a distance detection unit, an electric quantity detection unit, a comparison judgment unit, and an adjustment unit. Each adjustment unit is used for adjusting the return flight mode or adjusting a return flight destination, and each controller can switch the power supply mode between the main power supply and the standby power supply through the corresponding switching module according to a received signal of the corresponding return flight control module. The system cancontrol the return flight efficiency of a large unmanned plane cluster, achieves the real-time adjustment of the return flight strategy according to the remaining capacity of the battery of the unmanned plane, can reduce the restrictions on the area of a return flight place during the return flight of a large number of unmanned planes, reduces the cluster control cost, and saves the manpower costof the return flight cluster control.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a control method for unmanned aerial vehicles, in particular to an unmanned aerial vehicle cluster return control system. Background technique [0002] Unmanned aircraft, referred to as unmanned aerial vehicle, or UAV in English, is an unmanned aircraft controlled by radio remote control equipment and its own program control device. From a technical point of view, it can be divided into: unmanned helicopter, unmanned fixed-wing aircraft, unmanned multi-rotor aircraft, unmanned airship, unmanned parawing aircraft, etc. [0003] UAVs are widely used in power inspection, crop monitoring, environmental monitoring, film and television shooting, street view shooting, express delivery, post-disaster rescue, remote sensing mapping and other fields. In the prior art, a huge number of unmanned aerial vehicles are used to form a whole for information display and advertisement placement to gradually form a trend. [0004] UAV clu...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

In the prior art, the establishment of the cooperation group of the UAV cluster is not flexible enough, and a large amount of manpower is required to carry out the equipment maintenance in the early stage. A lot of manpower and preparation time

In the prior art, UAV swarm flight and return flight need plane unfolding for take-off and return flight, resulting in a large footprint, high cost, and high requirements for UAV swarm flight application scenarios
