Embodiment 1

[0154] A method for time-optimal path planning considering obstacle constraints disclosed in this embodiment, the specific steps are as follows:

[0155] Step 1: UAV kinematics modeling. based on figure 1 As shown, the dimensionless motion equation of UAV three-dimensional obstacle avoidance is expressed as:

[0156]

[0157] where [x, y, z] T is the spatial position of the UAV, z is the height, x, y are the coordinates in the orthogonal direction of the horizontal plane; Vc is the speed of the UAV, which is assumed to be a known quantity; ψ and ϕ are the flight path angle and heading angle, respectively. In equation (1), in addition to ψ and φ, the distance variable [x, y, z] T Using the Euclidean distance L of the initial and end positions 0 to normalize, the velocity is V c Normalized. Both time and specific impulse use L 0 / V c Normalized.

[0158] Step 2: Establish an optimal control problem model for obstacle avoidance path planning:

[0159] The control qua...

Embodiment A

[0275] Embodiment A Barrier-free path planning

[0276] For the special two-dimensional case, that is, the Dubins problem with z=0, the initial and end conditions are detailed in Table 1. For convenience, the maximum turning radius is set to 120m (the maximum curvature is 1 / 120), a max =V c *1 / 120=0.83m / s 2 . Convergent solutions are obtained in 3 iterations, and each iteration only takes 0.01-0.02 seconds to solve SOCP problem P3. Since the values ​​z and ψ are always zero (consistent with the numerical solution), they do not show up in the plot for 2D problems.

[0278]

[0279] The calculation convergence process under the Dubins task is as follows Figure 6 and Figure 7 . It can be seen that after the second iteration, the continuous solution of the path and flight time has little difference in the scale of the figure, and the error between e...

[0283] Embodiment B Three-dimensional path planning considering obstacles

[0284] In this case, set up a path planning task with two obstacle avoidance constraints. As a comparison, this case also gives the solution without obstacle avoidance constraints under the same endpoint conditions and overload constraints. The maximum acceleration is set to 0.8m / s 2 , the initial and termination conditions are shown in Table 3. The radius of the obstacle ball is 80m, centered at [250, 220, 280]m, the radius of the obstacle cylinder is 60m, and its center line passes through the x-y plane at [100, 150, 0]m with and without avoidance. obstacle limit, the minimum flight time is 71.41 seconds and 70.34 seconds respectively. Figure 11-17 The converged solution plotted in shows that the initial, terminal, and acceleration constraints are all satisfied. Figure 11 The optimal paths with and without obstacle avoidance constraints are plotted in . exist Figure 12 In , the top represent...

Abstract

The invention discloses a time optimal rapid three-dimensional obstacle avoidance path planning method, particularly relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle obstacle avoidance path planning method, andbelongs to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle path planning. According to the invention, the method comprises the steps: establishing an unmanned optimal control model which takes the acceleration in each direction as a control variable and contains the flight time sum through considering the maximum acceleration and obstacle constraint conditions; loosening an original non-convex nonlinear optimization problem into a second-order cone programming problem; and finally, solving a series of second-order cone programming problems through iteration to obtain a solution of an original problem andobtain an optimal change strategy in the speed direction. In other words, the obstacle avoidance path planning with the optimal time is realized by coordinating the flight time and the flight speed direction, the online planning of the obstacle avoidance path and the related control quantity can be realized, and the task response capability of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be further improved through the optimized flight path with the optimal time.
