论文摘要
目前，无人机研发在全球范围内受到了极大的关注。特别是，送货服务采用无人机，因为这是一种可行的方法，可以通过使用几个无人机来提高交付效率。已经进行了研究，以实现无人机控制以实现此类服务的完全自动化。但是，关于无人机的起飞和着陆港，传统方法集中在单个无人机的着陆操作上，并且尚未实现多个无人机的持续着陆。为了解决这个问题，我们提出了一个完全新颖的港口系统“ Eagles Port”，该系统允许几个无人机在短时间内连续着陆并起飞。实验证明，所提议的端口的着陆时间效率理想的是7.5倍，比常规垂直着陆系统高7.5倍。此外，系统可以耐受270 mm的水平位置误差，无人机进近的角误差的 +-30度（与建议的门机构 +-40 ver），以及无人机接近速度的1.9 m/s。该技术极大地有助于无人机使用的可扩展性。因此，对于开发未来的无人机端口而言，这对于自动无人机群的登陆至关重要。
Currently, drone research and development has received significant attention worldwide. Particularly, delivery services employ drones as it is a viable method to improve delivery efficiency by using a several unmanned drones. Research has been conducted to realize complete automation of drone control for such services. However, regarding the takeoff and landing port of the drones, conventional methods have focused on the landing operation of a single drone, and the continuous landing of multiple drones has not been realized. To address this issue, we propose a completely novel port system, "EAGLES Port," that allows several drones to continuously land and takeoff in a short time. Experiments verified that the landing time efficiency of the proposed port is ideally 7.5 times higher than that of conventional vertical landing systems. Moreover, the system can tolerate 270 mm of horizontal positional error, +-30 deg of angular error in the drone's approach (+-40 deg with the proposed gate mechanism), and up to 1.9 m/s of drone's approach speed. This technology significantly contributes to the scalability of drone usage. Therefore, it is critical for the development of a future drone port for the landing of automated drone swarms.
