Abstract

The scale of the global power system is constantly expanding. In order to ensure the safe operation of transmission lines, power line inspection and insulator cleaning are essential. The traditional power line inspection and insulator cleaning methods are low efficiency, high cost and low safety. With the development of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), the application scope of UAV is constantly expanding. This paper envisages the design of an autonomous and perfect UAV system to detect power lines and clean insulators. Firstly, this paper reviews the algorithm of visual tracking control UAV, and then seeks the best design scheme of the cleaning tool composed of water pump, nozzle and cleaning liquid. Finally, combined with the ground base station of automatic wireless charging and adding cleaning agent, a perfect UAV system of independent detection of power lines and cleaning insulator is built. Readers of this review can get familiar with the vision algorithm of controlling UAV, have a deeper understanding of the application of a perfect autonomous UAV system in power line, and also put forward solutions to the problems that may be encountered in future power line maintenance, and propose future research directions.
