MAVROS에서 PX4로 사용자 정의 메시지 전송

WARNING

This article has been tested against:

• Ubuntu: 20.04
• ROS: Noetic
• PX4 Firmware: v1.13

그러나 이러한 단계는 상당히 일반적이므로 수정이 거의 없이 다른 배포판/버전에서 작동합니다.

MAVROS 설치

Follow Source Installation instructions from mavlink/mavros to install "ROS Kinetic".

MAVROS

1. We start by creating a new MAVROS plugin, in this example named keyboard_command.cpp (in workspace/src/mavros/mavros_extras/src/plugins) by using the code below:

   The code subscribes a 'char' message from ROS topic /mavros/keyboard_command/keyboard_sub and sends it as a MAVLink message.

    #include <mavros/mavros_plugin.h>
    #include <pluginlib/class_list_macros.h>
    #include <iostream>
    #include <std_msgs/Char.h>
   
    namespace mavros {
    namespace extra_plugins{
   
    class KeyboardCommandPlugin : public plugin::PluginBase {
    public:
        KeyboardCommandPlugin() : PluginBase(),
            nh("~keyboard_command")
   
       { };
   
        void initialize(UAS &uas_)
        {
            PluginBase::initialize(uas_);
            keyboard_sub = nh.subscribe("keyboard_sub", 10, &KeyboardCommandPlugin::keyboard_cb, this);
        };
   
        Subscriptions get_subscriptions()
        {
            return {/* RX disabled */ };
        }
   
    private:
        ros::NodeHandle nh;
        ros::Subscriber keyboard_sub;
   
       void keyboard_cb(const std_msgs::Char::ConstPtr &req)
        {
            std::cout << "Got Char : " << req->data <<  std::endl;
            mavlink::common::msg::KEY_COMMAND kc {};
            kc.command = req->data;
            UAS_FCU(m_uas)->send_message_ignore_drop(kc);
        }
    };
    }   // namespace extra_plugins
    }   // namespace mavros
   
   PLUGINLIB_EXPORT_CLASS(mavros::extra_plugins::KeyboardCommandPlugin, mavros::plugin::PluginBase)

2. Edit mavros_plugins.xml (in workspace/src/mavros/mavros_extras) and add the following lines:

   <class name="keyboard_command" type="mavros::extra_plugins::KeyboardCommandPlugin" base_class_type="mavros::plugin::PluginBase">
        <description>Accepts keyboard command.</description>
   </class>

3. Edit CMakeLists.txt (in workspace/src/mavros/mavros_extras) and add the following line in add_library.

   add_library( 
   ...
     src/plugins/keyboard_command.cpp 
   )

4. Inside common.xml in (workspace/src/mavlink/message_definitions/v1.0), copy the following lines to add your MAVLink message:

   ...
     <message id="229" name="KEY_COMMAND">
        <description>Keyboard char command.</description>
        <field type="char" name="command"> </field>
      </message>
   ...

PX4 수정사항

1. Inside common.xml (in PX4-Autopilot/src/modules/mavlink/mavlink/message_definitions/v1.0), add your MAVLink message as following (same procedure as for MAVROS section above):

   ...
     <message id="229" name="KEY_COMMAND">
        <description>Keyboard char command.</description>
        <field type="char" name="command"> </field>
      </message>
   ...

   WARNING

   Make sure that the common.xml files in the following directories are exactly the same:

   • PX4-Autopilot/src/modules/mavlink/mavlink/message_definitions/v1.0
   • workspace/src/mavlink/message_definitions/v1.0 are exactly the same.

:::

2. Make your own uORB message file key_command.msg in (PX4-Autopilot/msg). 이 예에서 "key_command.msg"에는 다음 코드만 있습니다.

   uint64 timestamp # time since system start (microseconds)
   char cmd

   Then, in CMakeLists.txt (in PX4-Autopilot/msg), include:

   set(
   ...
        key_command.msg
        )

3. Edit mavlink_receiver.h (in PX4-Autopilot/src/modules/mavlink)

   ...
   #include <uORB/topics/key_command.h>
   ...
   class MavlinkReceiver
   {
   ...
   private:
       void handle_message_key_command(mavlink_message_t *msg);
   ...
       orb_advert_t _key_command_pub{nullptr};
   }

4. Edit mavlink_receiver.cpp (in PX4-Autopilot/src/modules/mavlink). 여기에서 PX4는 ROS에서 보낸 MAVLink 메시지를 수신하고, 이를 uORB 주제로 게시합니다.

   ...
   void MavlinkReceiver::handle_message(mavlink_message_t *msg)
   {
   ...
    case MAVLINK_MSG_ID_KEY_COMMAND:
           handle_message_key_command(msg);
           break;
   ...
   }
   ...
   void
   MavlinkReceiver::handle_message_key_command(mavlink_message_t *msg)
   {
       mavlink_key_command_t man;
       mavlink_msg_key_command_decode(msg, &man);
   
   struct key_command_s key = {};
   
       key.timestamp = hrt_absolute_time();
       key.cmd = man.command;
   
       if (_key_command_pub == nullptr) {
           _key_command_pub = orb_advertise(ORB_ID(key_command), &key);
   
       } else {
           orb_publish(ORB_ID(key_command), _key_command_pub, &key);
       }
   }

5. 예제 구독자 모듈처럼 자신만의 uORB 주제 구독자를 생성합니다. 이 예에서는 (/PX4-Autopilot/src/modules/key_receiver)에서 모델을 생성할 수 있습니다. In this directory, create three files CMakeLists.txt, key_receiver.cpp, Kconfig Each one looks like the following.

   -CMakeLists.txt

   px4_add_module(
       MODULE modules__key_receiver
       MAIN key_receiver
       STACK_MAIN 2500
       STACK_MAX 4000
       SRCS
           key_receiver.cpp
       DEPENDS
   
       )

   -key_receiver.cpp

   #include <px4_platform_common/px4_config.h>
   #include <px4_platform_common/tasks.h>
   #include <px4_platform_common/posix.h>
   #include <unistd.h>
   #include <stdio.h>
   #include <poll.h>
   #include <string.h>
   #include <math.h>
   
   #include <uORB/uORB.h>
   #include <uORB/topics/key_command.h>
   
   extern "C" __EXPORT int key_receiver_main(int argc, char **argv);
   
   int key_receiver_main(int argc, char **argv)
   {
       int key_sub_fd = orb_subscribe(ORB_ID(key_command));
       orb_set_interval(key_sub_fd, 200); // limit the update rate to 200ms
   
       px4_pollfd_struct_t fds[] = {
           { .fd = key_sub_fd,   .events = POLLIN },
       };
   
       int error_counter = 0;
   
       for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
       {
           int poll_ret = px4_poll(fds, 1, 1000);
   
           if (poll_ret == 0)
           {
               PX4_ERR("Got no data within a second");
           }
   
           else if (poll_ret < 0)
           {
               if (error_counter < 10 || error_counter % 50 == 0)
               {
                   PX4_ERR("ERROR return value from poll(): %d", poll_ret);
               }
   
               error_counter++;
           }
   
           else
           {
               if (fds[0].revents & POLLIN)
               {
                   struct key_command_s input;
                   orb_copy(ORB_ID(key_command), key_sub_fd, &input);
                   PX4_INFO("Received Char : %c", input.cmd);
                }
           }
       }
       return 0;
   }

   -Kconfig

    menuconfig MODULES_KEY_RECEIVER
    bool "key_receiver"
    default n
    ---help---
    	Enable support for key_receiver

   For a more detailed explanation see the topic Writing your first application.

6. Lastly, add your module in the default.px4board file correspondent to your board in PX4-Autopilot/boards/. For example: -for the Pixhawk 4, add the following code in PX4-Autopilot/boards/px4/fmu-v5/default.px4board: -for the SITL, add the following code in PX4-Autopilot/boards/px4/sitl/default.px4board

    CONFIG_MODULES_KEY_RECEIVER=y

Building

Build for ROS

1. In your workspace enter: catkin build.

2. Beforehand, you have to set your "px4.launch" in (/workspace/src/mavros/mavros/launch). Edit "px4.launch" as below. If you are using USB to connect your computer with Pixhawk, you have to set "fcu_url" as shown below. But, if you are using CP2102 to connect your computer with Pixhawk, you have to replace "ttyACM0" with "ttyUSB0". And if you are using the SITL to connect to your terminal, you have to replace "/dev/ttyACM0:57600" with "udp://:14540@127.0.0.1:14557". Modifying "gcs_url" is to connect your Pixhawk with UDP, because serial communication cannot accept MAVROS, and your nutshell connection simultaneously.

3. Write your IP address at "xxx.xx.xxx.xxx"

   ...
     <arg name="fcu_url" default="/dev/ttyACM0:57600" />
     <arg name="gcs_url" default="udp://:14550@xxx.xx.xxx.xxx:14557" />
   ...

ROS 빌드

1. Clean the previously built PX4-Autopilot directory. In the root of PX4-Autopilot directory:

   make clean

2. Build PX4-Autopilot and upload in the normal way.

   예:

   • to build for Pixhawk 4/FMUv5 execute the following command in the root of the PX4-Autopilot directory:

   make px4_fmu-v5_default upload

   • to build for SITL execute the following command in the root of the PX4-Autopilot directory (using jmavsim simulation):

   make px4_sitl jmavsim

빌드

이제 작업을 빌드할 준비가 되었습니다!

PX4 빌드

1. In a terminal enter

   roslaunch mavros px4.launch

2. In a second terminal run:

   rostopic pub -r 10 /mavros/keyboard_command/keyboard_sub std_msgs/Char 97

   This means, publish 97 ('a' in ASCII) to ROS topic "/mavros/keyboard_command/keyboard_sub" in message type "std_msgs/Char". "-r 10" means to publish continuously in "10Hz".

ROS 실행

1. Enter the Pixhawk nutshell through UDP. Replace xxx.xx.xxx.xxx with your IP.

   cd PX4-Autopilot/Tools
   ./mavlink_shell.py xxx.xx.xxx.xxx:14557 --baudrate 57600

2. After few seconds, press Enter a couple of times. You should see a prompt in the terminal as below:

   nsh>
   nsh>

   Type "key_receiver", to run your subscriber module.

   nsh> key_receiver

Check if it successfully receives a from your ROS topic.
