KR-102964521-B1 - Apparatus and Method for real-time sharing drone mission information including streaming

Abstract

The present specification describes a mission sharing system including a real-time video streaming mission of a drone, comprising: a drone that captures video of a flight surrounding a flight performing a mission in real time, receives link information generated by a mission management server to stream the captured video in real time prior to flight, and periodically advertises a remote ID message including drone identification information, drone location information, drone flight time information, and the received link information during flight through a first communication channel; a mission management server having the function of receiving mission information including the captured video from the drone, generating the link information before flight and providing it to the drone, and providing mission information including streaming to a desired person through link information sent by a terminal during the flight of the drone; and a user terminal that receives the remote ID message from the drone through the first communication channel, outputs drone icons corresponding to one or more drones performing a mission by overlapping them on a map based on the remote ID message, and, when a specific drone icon is selected, receives mission performance information including video of the drone corresponding to the specific drone icon in real time from the mission management server through a second communication channel using the link information included in the remote ID message.

1. In a mission sharing system for sharing mission information of a drone, including video streaming, in real time, A drone that prepares to generate and provide mission information, including capturing video of a flight surrounding area in real time before a flight to perform a mission, receives link information from a mission management server to provide mission information including said streaming, provides mission information including said streaming during a flight, and periodically advertises a remote ID message including drone identification information, drone location information, drone flight time information, and said link information through a first communication channel; A mission management server that receives mission information including streaming and related information, along with the identification information of the drone, from the drone or the drone's ground control system via a second communication channel before the flight of the drone, generates link information using the drone's identification information and the mission information related information including streaming and provides it to the drone, and, when receiving a mission information sharing request based on the link information from a user terminal during flight, provides mission information including real-time streaming to the user terminal; and The system includes a user terminal that receives the above remote ID message from the drone through the first communication channel, outputs drone icons corresponding to one or more drones performing a mission on a map by overlapping them based on the remote ID message, and, when a specific drone icon is selected, receives mission information including video streaming of the drone corresponding to the specific drone icon in real time from the mission management server through the second communication channel using link information included in the remote ID message. The above remote ID message includes a message type field indicating the message type, a version field indicating the version of the message, and a message field, and A mission sharing system in which, when the above message type is set to a value representing a self-ID message, the message field includes a description field representing link information (URL) capable of providing mission information including drone streaming in real time, and a description type field having a private use value representing the link information included in the description field.

Description

Apparatus and Method for real-time sharing drone mission information including streaming and system supporting the same This specification relates to a mission sharing system, and more specifically, to a mission sharing system for sharing mission information of a drone, including streaming, in real time. Currently, in the United States and Europe, technology represented by Remote ID for drone traffic management has been standardized (ASTM F3411) and codified (Part 89), and Korea is also preparing for research and introduction regarding this. In the United States, if a drone does not implement the aforementioned Remote ID technology, the drone will not be allowed to fly in the airspace starting from September 2023. To date, there is no system in place to identify flying drones by assigning them a standardized identification ID, similar to a vehicle's registration number, allowing relevant parties to identify drones currently in flight. Therefore, while there are many systems that display and control/monitor the drones (UAVs) operated by the user on a map, there is no system that displays all drones flying within a single airspace. However, by utilizing the ‘Remote ID’ standard technology for drones, which has been standardized and institutionalized in the U.S. and Europe, anyone will be able to create and provide a screen that displays all drones flying within a given airspace on a map. Before flying, the drone can register a method to send its real-time mission information to a relevant server with the help of a terminal such as a smartphone, and a channel to process that information and provide it in real-time to a desired person. Previously, when a drone attempted to share video information with multiple people in real time while flying, sharing was only possible via pre-announced link information. However, it was difficult to locate the specific drone's information within a pre-established link table, and there was an even greater challenge in adding mission information for a drone joining the field mission midway, especially when other drones were already on missions. The accompanying drawings, which are included as part of the detailed description to aid in understanding the present invention, provide embodiments of the present invention and explain the technical features of the present invention together with the detailed description. FIG. 1 shows an example of a conceptual diagram of a mission sharing system for providing mission information, including streaming of a drone, in real time as proposed in this specification. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of an internal block diagram of a drone proposed in this specification. FIG. 3 shows an example of an internal block diagram of a wireless device to which the wireless communication technology proposed in this specification is applied. FIG. 4 is a figure illustrating an example of a method for providing mission information, including streaming of a drone, in real time as proposed in this specification.
