  • Patent number: 10393527
    Abstract: An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) navigation obstacle avoidance system and method thereof are introduced. The UAV navigation obstacle avoidance system provides with functions of automatically controlling the UAV motive power sources to control the flight of UAV and avoid the obstacle. The system comprises a sensing device, a signal processing module, a communication module, a control module. The sensing device detects the relative direction, velocity and distance between a UAV and a dynamic or static obstacle. The sensing device also detects the real-time position, flight attitude and inertia signals of the UAV. The signal processing module generates a UAV flight control signal. The control module receives the UAV flight control signal and controls each of the UAV motive power sources. Therefore, the system achieves the purpose of controlling flight and obstacle avoidance and forward to the original planned follow-on flight route after the avoidance.

  • Patent number: 7474255
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a target tracking method of radar with frequency modulated continuous wave, which transmits a transmitted signal to receive a return wave of the transmitted signal that is used for detecting the target and obtaining the relative distance between the target and the radar. The target tracking method includes transmitting a frequency modulated continuous wave and receiving the reflected wave; getting a reflected wave corresponding to the target by detecting the reflected wave; getting a range gate error by seeking the plurality of the range gates corresponding to the reflected wave; and getting a position and a speed of the target at next time by knowing the position of the target at present time basis of the range gate error. Hence, the relative distance between the radar and the target is got.

  • Publication number: 20040130482
    Abstract: This invention relates to a frequency modulation of continuous wave (“FMCW”) radar altimeter capable of controlled linear sweep modes. The FMCW radar altimeter is characterized by the following functions: (1) adopts sweep up frequency and sweep down frequency to solve problems of distance and doppler signal mixture; (2) injects a random generated variable time delay in between sweep intervals to overcome interferences among different altimeters; and (3) switches different sweep frequency bands in accordance with different altitudes.
