Design of Gas Monitoring Terminal Based on Quadrotor UAV.

The problem of air pollution is an increasingly serious worldwide. Therefore, in order to better monitor the gas components in the atmosphere, the design of a gas monitoring terminal based on a quadrotor UAV, including software and hardware design, is hereby carried out. Besides, a pump-suction series cavity is designed to reduce the influence of airflow disturbance on the UAV, which is verified to possess a certain anti-interference ability through Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) simulation experiments. In addition, a linear regression algorithm is used for sensor calibration and a polynomial piecewise regression method is used for temperature compensation. The experimental results show that the R of the model reaches 0.9981, the fitting degree is rather high, and the output is closer to the real gas concentration value after calibration. At the same time, the temperature compensation parameters are determined, which considerably improves the accuracy of the entire hardware terminal. Finally, the vehicle exhaust monitoring experiment is conducted, and the experimental results show that this scheme can successfully detect the exhaust position of the vehicle exhaust under the interference of the downwash flow of the UAV, thereby proving the reliability and accuracy of the monitoring terminal.
