用于多无人机控制的无人机数据链系统

UAV Datalink System Overview

UAV Datalink System is designed to enable reliable, real-time communication, 控制, and monitoring for multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (无人机). The system consists of four UAVs, each equipped with a Datalink Air Unit, 一种 飞行控制计算机 (联邦通信委员会, 例如。, 假V5+), and a camera/seeker, as well as a Datalink Ground Unit connected to a 地面控制站 (地面站).

主要特征

  • 组态: 1 Ground Unit communicating with 4 Air Units via a point-to-multipoint bidirectional link (以太网 + 串口).
  • 范围 & 表现: ≥ 80 km line-of-sight with robust video and telemetry links, supporting 1080p video at 30 fps and telemetry/control data at up to 921600 基点.
  • 接口: Air Units provide 1 UART port for FCC telemetry and 1 Ethernet port for camera data. The Ground Unit aggregates these streams and presents a single UART and Ethernet interface to the GCS.
  • 电缆 & Wiring: Straight-through TTL UART connections minimize latency and complexity. Ethernet cables support standard Cat5e/Cat6 connections with shielding for EMI protection.
  • 可靠性 & 潜伏: Bit error rate < 8×10⁻⁸, data delay < 1 小姐, 丢包 < 1%, with FEC, CRC, and ARQ mechanisms to ensure continuous operation.
  • System Flexibility: Each data stream is tagged with a unique Bird ID, allowing the GCS to identify and manage individual UAVs. The system continues operating even if one or more UAVs temporarily lose connection.

This Datalink System ensures seamless integration between UAVs, 相机, and ground control, providing a lightweight, high-performance solution for real-time multi-drone operations.

笔记:

  • For seamless integration between the CUAV V5+ flight controller and external peripherals, UART 织机保持一个至关重要 direct and uncomplicated wiring structure. 具体来说, 来自 UART 端口的织机应设计为 single straight line connection without introducing any additional converters or intermediary boards. 这最大限度地减少了潜在的故障点, 减少延迟, and ensures a lightweight and reliable wiring architecture.
    • 此外, 织机必须以晶体管-晶体管逻辑运行 (TTL) voltage levels, V5+飞控通过TTL UART进行通信. 与 TTL 的任何偏差 (例如 RS-232 或 RS-485 电平) would necessitate external level shifters or converters, 这与直接织机的要求相矛盾. By adhering to TTL standards, 保持信号兼容性, 确保:
      • Direct communication between the V5+ and connected modules.
      • Reduced hardware complexity by eliminating converters or translators.
      • Lower weight and improved reliability, as fewer components are involved in the signal path.
      • Improved signal integrity, since additional conversion stages can introduce noise or timing mismatches.

综上所述,the loom design should strictly provide a straight-through UART wiring harness operating at TTL voltages,aligning with the CUAV V5+electrical specifications and guaranteeing optimal performance in airborne applications.

数据流 (概述): Video and sensor data from each camera is provided to its associated Datalink Air Unit via the camera’s Ethernet port. Telemetry and control data between the FCC and the Air Unit is carried over a UART link. The Datalink Air Unit transmits these streams over the data link to the Ground Unit; the Ground Unit demultiplexes the streams and presents them to the GCS as a single Ethernet stream (摄像头视频和数据) 和一个连续剧 (串口/USB) telemetry stream.

空气装置要求:

每个数据链空中单元 (每架无人机一台) 应满足以下强制性要求:

1. 接口 & 港口 (最低限度):

  • 1 × 串口 (最低限度). This port shall be used for telemetry/control connectivity to the FCC (遥测端口 Telem1 / Telem2 在 FCC 上的发言).
    • 1 × 以太网端口 (最低限度). This port shall be used to receive camera/seeker Ethernet data.

2. 电缆连接 (delivered with the AirUnit):

  • 1 × 串口线 (基本的) - 长度: 1.0 米 (±5%). 电缆应携带 TX, 接收, GND and VCC. Cable must be terminated to match the Datalink UART connector on one end and the FCC telemetry connector on the other.
    • 1 × 以太网电缆 (基本的) - 长度: 1.0 米 (±5%). Cable shall be standard shielded Cat5e or Cat6 patch cable with RJ45 connectors.
    • 2 × 备用套 (每空气单位) - IE。, two additional UART cables and two additional Ethernet cables shall be supplied with each Air Unit (total supplied per unit = 3 串口线, 3 以太网电缆).

3. 机械的 & 身体的:

地面单位要求:

The Ground Unit performs demultiplexing of data from all four Air Units and presents a unified interface to the GCS. 强制性要求是:

1. 接口 & 港口 (最低限度):

  • 1 × 串口 (提交给 GCS). The Ground Unit shall aggregate telemetry streams from all four air units and present them to the GCS as a single UART/USB interface (例如。, 连接到 GCS 上 USB 接口的地面单元 UART).
    • 1 × 以太网端口 (提交给 GCS). The Ground Unit shall aggregate camera/video and data streams from the four air units and present them as a single Ethernet interface to the GCS.

2. 聚合行为:

  • The Ground Unit shall accept four independent incoming data streams (one from each Air Unit) and demultiplex them to a combined Ethernet stream and a combined serial stream. 来自全球气候系统’ perspective there shall be only one Ethernet link and one UART link to configure and monitor.
    • Aggregation must preserve source addressing, so the GCS can identify which stream is from which Bird. The Ground Unit shall not lose per-bird identification information.

3. 电缆连接 (与地面装置一起交付):

  • 1 × 串口线 (基本的) - 长度: 400 毫米 (0.4 米). Cable shall allow connection from the Ground Unit UART port to the GCS USB port (if the Ground Unit UART is a direct UART, 提供 USB-UART 适配器电缆). The cable must carry TX, 接收, GND and VCC.
    • 1 × 以太网电缆 (基本的) - 长度: 400 毫米 (0.4 米). Cable shall be shielded Cat5e/Cat6 patch cable with RJ45 connectors.
    • 2 × spare sets — two additional UART and two additional Ethernet cables supplied as spares with the Ground Unit.

4. 电气 / 主芯片组:

  • Aggregation shall be transparent with respect to Ethernet frames for video; where needed the Ground Unit may repackage streams into a single transport stream but must preserve timing information and per-bird source identification.

遥测复用: The Ground Unit shall time-multiplex or packetize telemetry streams into a single UART stream with clear framing and optional tags to distinguish messages by bird ID. The protocol used for multiplexing must be documented and supported by the GCS software.
