Cruise control method and device of unmanned aerial vehicles and electronic equipment

Abstract

The invention provides a cruise control method and device of unmanned aerial vehicles and electronic equipment. The method comprises a step of obtaining the state information of at least two first unmanned aerial vehicles which execute a first cruise task and obtaining flight parameters needed for executing a second cruise task, a step of comparing the state information with the flight parametersand selecting a second unmanned aerial vehicle executing the second cruise task from the first unmanned aerial vehicles, a step of sending the second cruise task to the second unmanned aerial vehicleto control the second unmanned aerial vehicle to execute the second cruise task according to the flight parameters after executing the first cruise task of the second unmanned aerial vehicle. According to the invention, the state of the unmanned aerial vehicle executing the first cruise task can be referred when the unmanned aerial vehicle executing the second cruise task is selected, so that theunmanned aerial vehicle executing the second cruise task can be selected from the unmanned aerial vehicles executing the first cruise task, the flight time of the unmanned aerial vehicles is saved, and the requirement for the cruising ability of the unmanned aerial vehicles is reduced.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicles, in particular to a cruise control method, device and electronic equipment for unmanned aerial vehicles. 【Background technique】 [0002] Unmanned aircraft, referred to as UAV, has the advantages of flexible maneuvering, quick response, unmanned flight, low operation requirements, and no need for runways or other auxiliary equipment for takeoff. By carrying multiple types of sensors, drones can realize real-time image transmission, detection of high-risk areas, etc., and at present, the scope of use of drones has been expanded to three major fields: military, scientific research, and civilian use, and has a wide range of applications. [0003] In the fields of civil and scientific research, UAVs have many uses, such as offshore surveys, road and railway maintenance, power inspections, etc. In order to achieve these purposes, it is necessary to carry various equipment o...

Problems solved by technology

Among the existing related algorithms, UAV planning algorithms are generally used to plan the cruising route of UAVs. However, this algorithm for planning UAVs’ cruising routes only considers the situation where one UAV performs a cruising task. After the drone performs the second cruise mission after the first cruise mission, the drone needs to return to the control tower after the first cruise mission to receive instructions and cruise routes for the second cruise mission , which greatly increases the flight time of the UAV, and has higher requirements for the endurance of the UAV.
