Application of UAV in intelligent patrol inspection of transmission line

In view of the low efficiency and high cost of the current line patrol method, as well as the cumbersome technology and weak operability of the helicopter power patrol inspection, this paper describes the UAV system in detail. At the same time, combined with the application of UAV in the line operation and maintenance management, it introduces the process of UAV patrol inspection in detail, and focuses on the path planning, line fault detection and line evaluation and prediction in the transmission line patrol inspection. It is concluded that UAV inspection can effectively improve the efficiency of inspection and maintenance of transmission lines, and promote the process of intelligent operation and maintenance of transmission lines.
