Unmanned-aerial-vehicle-based internet-of-things communication system and method

Abstract

The application relates to an unmanned-aerial-vehicle-based internet-of-things communication system and method. The system comprises an internet-of-things terminal, an unmanned aerial vehicle, and anunmanned aerial vehicle base. The unmanned aerial vehicle is provided with a first data transceiver unit in communication with the internet-of-things terminal, an artificial intelligence unit for planning a flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and a basic flight control unit for controlling the flight operation of the unmanned aerial vehicle. A second data transceiver unit in communicationwith the unmanned aerial vehicle and a power management unit for charging the unmanned aerial vehicle are arranged on the unmanned aerial vehicle base. And the unmanned aerial vehicle base is in communication connection with a background. The communication between the internet-of-things terminal and the background is realized by carrying data by the unmanned aerial vehicle; and problems that the internet of things can not be built in an area without signal coverage, configuration is not flexible, the system is only compatible with one kind of communication mode, the cost and environment requirement are high in large-area application and networking, and the animals are affected according to the existing internet-of-things communication system are solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to an unmanned aerial vehicle-based Internet of Things communication system and method. Background technique [0002] Most of the existing IoT solutions rely on 4G networks, or need to use IoT bridges to connect devices to the Internet. However, there is no network coverage in many areas, and the cost of building bridges is very high, and it will affect the environment. For example, in many protected areas, there is no signal, and building bridges requires high costs, and high-power electromagnetic waves will have adverse effects on some wild animals. It is difficult to deploy some environmental monitoring IoT devices or agricultural IoT devices in such protected areas. In addition to agricultural IoT in protected areas, in some large areas, such as deserts, some oil pipelines or road IoT systems require all wiring to be in place and the cost is very high.

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, there is no network coverage in many areas, and the cost of building bridges is very high, and it will have an impact on the environment

For example, in many protected areas, there is no signal, and building bridges requires high costs, and high-power electromagnetic waves will have adverse effects on some wild animals

It is difficult to deploy some environmental monitoring IoT devices or agricultural IoT devices in such protected areas

In addition to agricultural IoT in protected areas, in some large areas, such as deserts, some oil pipelines or road IoT systems need to be fully wired in place and the cost is very high

[0003] To sum up, the existing Internet of Things communication system cannot establish the Internet of Things in areas without signal coverage; the configuration is not flexible, and it is often only compatible with a certain communication method; when the network is applied in a large area, the cost is high and the environment is damaged. Demanding and can have adverse effects on animals
