摘要:
针对无人驾驶航空器在城市空中交通(UAM)场景下的避让问题,提出了一个基于运行时保证的探测与避让模块(RTA-DAAM),通过探测外部环境信息源判断航空器状态,并提供控制指令和告警信息,保证航空器在UAM场景下执行任务的高效性和安全性。对RTA-DAAM中的先进避让模块和备用避让模块的控制方法进行设计,同时考虑探测、决策和告警功能协同配合的重要性,定义航空器自身的净空边界、预防边界、障碍物的安全边界,划分不同的航空器状态,完成决策与告警逻辑的设计。仿真实验结果表明,RTA-DAAM可使航空器在仅损失3.40%效率的基础上,确保其始终存在期望分离距离,以保障DAA系统运行安全。小型无人机的实飞结果表明,RTA技术的引入可提升无人机的安全时间占比至96.9%,最大限度地确保了无人机的运行安全。
Abstract:A runtime assurance-detect and avoid module (RTA-DAAM) is proposed to address the avoidance issue of unmanned aerial vehicles in the urban air mobility (UAM) scenario. It does this by identifying external environmental information sources and providing control commands and alarm information to guarantee the effectiveness and safety of aircraft in the UAM scenario. The control methods of advanced and standby collision avoidance modules in RTA-DAAM are designed. Considering the importance of coordination of detection, decision-making and warning functions, defining the aircraft’s own clearance boundaries, prevention boundaries, and obstacle safety boundaries, and dividing the different aircraft states so as to complete the design of the decision-making and warning logics. The simulation results show that RTA-DAAM can ensure the desired separation distance of the aircraft at a loss of only 3.40% of efficiency, so as to ensure the safety of the DAA system. The implementation of RTA technology can increase UAV safety time to 96.9%, providing UAV safety to the greatest extent possible, according to the real flight results of tiny UAVs.
