Abstract

A crop growth monitoring device based on multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle platform includes a multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle, a payload and a ground receiver; the payload part includes a multispectral crop growth sensor module, a signal amplification module, a controller module, a wireless data transmission module, and a power module for power supply and a power supply control module, which are connected in sequence; further comprising a gimbal. The crop growth monitoring device based on the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle platform overcomes the influence on measurement caused by the down-wash flow field of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and can transmit the measured data to the ground receiver in real time for online analysis and processing, realizing continuous, real-time, convenient and large-scope acquisition of crop growth information.
