Millimeter wave radar-based AGV guiding method

Abstract

The invention discloses a millimeter wave radar-based AGV guiding method. Through deploying a certain number of millimeter wave radar modules, the radar field of view covers all active areas of the AGV, each radar module analyzes and calculates the target information in each field of view, the target information comprises the position information and the speed information of the target, and the target information is transmitted to a central processing unit through communication with the central processing unit. The central processing unit comprehensively analyzes the target information transmitted by each radar module in real time based on the mounting position information of each radar module and the initial position information of each AGV, the real-time position information of each AGVis calculated, and a corresponding motion control instruction is sent to the AGV according to the destination position information of each AGV. The method can reduce the AGV guiding making cost and the AGV application environment requirements.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of radar application technology, in particular to an AGV guidance method based on millimeter wave radar. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the logistics industry and the continuous improvement of the level of factory automation, the automatic guided vehicle (AGV) system has developed into one of the largest professional branches in the production logistics system, and there is a trend of industrialization development, becoming a modern enterprise automation An indispensable part of equipment. Guidance technology is one of the key technologies of the AGV system. Currently, commonly used guidance technologies include magnetic tape guidance, optical guidance, inertial guidance, and laser guidance. Although the first two guidance technologies are low in cost, they have high environmental requirements, poor guidance reliability and low precision; although the latter two guidance technologies hav...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Although the first two guidance technologies are low in cost, they have high environmental requirements, poor guidance reliability and low precision; although the latter two guidance technologies have high precision and more flexible paths, their manufacturing costs are very high. In addition, the use of laser guidance also has relatively strict environmental requirements (external light, ground requirements, visibility requirements, etc.), and is not suitable for outdoors (especially susceptible to rain, snow, and fog)
