Abstract

The present invention discloses a wireless perception system energy and information transmission method of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarm, comprising: building a wireless perception system architecture based on multi-UAV energy supply, wherein the system comprises a plurality of wireless powered sensors and a UAV swarm, and each sensor establishes connection with a UAV based on random access to realize network construction; designing energy and information transmission protocols in the swarm and between the swarm and the sensors, designing a joint optimization algorithm and solving optimal system configuration to obtain optimal transmission strategies. The present invention firstly proposes a joint optimization method of multi-network power allocation, time slot design and beam forming under the condition of multi-UAV autonomous collaborative energy supply, and also provides an efficient and reliable communication means for autonomous cooperative control of the UAV swarm.
