一、Linux/ROS Nodes单机仿真
1.安装ROS-Kinetic（参考http://wiki.ros.org/kinetic/Installation/Ubuntu）
1.1 添加软件源
sudo sh -c ‘echo “deb http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu (lsbrelease−sc)main”>/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros−latest.list′1.2安装密钥sudoapt−keyadv–keyserverhkp://ha.pool.sks−keyservers.net:80–recv−key421C365BD9FF1F717815A3895523BAEEB01FA1161.3更新软件源sudoapt−getupdate1.4安装ROS−Kineticsudoapt−getinstallros−kinetic−desktop−full1.5初始化rosdepsudorosdepinitrosdepupdate1.6环境变量设置echo“source/opt/ros/kinetic/setup.bash”>> /.bashrcsource /.bashrc1.7创建ROS工作空间mkdir−p /catkinws/srccd /catkinws/catkinmake1.8检查是否安装成功sourcedevel/setup.bashecho
若结果是：/home/catkin_ws/src:/opt/ros/kinetic/share:/opt/ros/kinetic/stacks 则表明一切正常，可以继续
2.安装MAVROS（参考https://dev.px4.io/en/ros/mavros_installation.html）
2.1安装mavros
sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-mavros ros-kinetic-mavros-extras
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mavlink/mavros/master/mavros/scripts/install_geographiclib_datasets.sh
./install_geographiclib_datasets.sh
2.2下载mavros源码
cd ~/catkin_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/mavlink/mavros.git
2.3编译mavros
cd ~/catkin_ws
catkin_make
3.安装Gazebo（参考https://dev.px4.io/en/setup/dev_env_linux.html#jmavsimgazebo-simulation）
3.1安装Gazebo和jMAVSim仿真器
下载ubuntu_sim.sh（https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PX4/Devguide/master/build_scripts/ubuntu_sim.sh）
source ubuntu_sim.sh
3.2安装Gazebo在ROS上的开发工具链
下载ubuntu_sim_ros_gazebo.sh（https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PX4/Devguide/master/build_scripts/ubuntu_sim_ros_gazebo.sh）
source ubuntu_sim_ros_gazebo.sh
4.编写外部控制程序
4.1 建立一个外部控制程序包
这个程序包依赖于roscpp 、mavros以及geometry_msgs。可以理解为一个ROS的一个节点
pip install catkin_create_pkg #不一定需要
cd ~/catkin_ws/src/
catkin_create_pkg offb roscpp mavros geometry_msgs
4.2 外部控制程序
cd ~/catkin_ws/src/offb/src/
gedit offb_node.cpp
将官网的示例程序https://dev.px4.io/en/ros/mavros_offboard.html复制粘贴进来或者编写自己的控制程序
4.3 修改Cmakelists
cd ~/catkin_ws/src/offb/
gedit CMakeLists.txt
修改后##build##部分如下所示#####
Build ##
#####
Specify additional locations of header files
Your package locations should be listed before other locations include_directories(
include ${catkin_INCLUDE_DIRS}
)
Declare a C++ library
add_library(${PROJECT_NAME}
src/${PROJECT_NAME}/offb.cpp
)
Add cmake target dependencies of the library
as an example, code may need to be generated before libraries
either from message generation or dynamic reconfigure
add_dependencies(PROJECTNAMEPROJECTNAME{undefined{PROJECT_NAME}_EXPORTED_TARGETS}{PROJECT_NAME}_EXPORTED_TARGETS}{catkin_EXPORTED_TARGETS})
Declare a C++ executable
With catkin_make all packages are built within a single CMake context
The recommended prefix ensures that target names across packages don’t collide
add_executable(offb_node src/offb_node.cpp)
Rename C++ executable without prefix
The above recommended prefix causes long target names, the following renames the
target back to the shorter version for ease of user use
e.g. “rosrun someones_pkg node” instead of “rosrun someones_pkg someones_pkg_node”
set_target_properties(${PROJECT_NAME}_node PROPERTIES OUTPUT_NAME node PREFIX “”)
Add cmake target dependencies of the executable
same as for the library above
add_dependencies(PROJECTNAMEnodePROJECTNAMEnode{undefined{PROJECT_NAME}_EXPORTED_TARGETS}{PROJECT_NAME}_EXPORTED_TARGETS}{catkin_EXPORTED_TARGETS})
Specify libraries to link a library or executable target against target_link_libraries(offb_node
${catkin_LIBRARIES}
5.仿真测试
5.1 编译
cd ~/catkin_ws
catkin_make
5.2 开始仿真
打开终端1，启动gazebo仿真：
cd ~/src/Firmware
make posix_sitl_default gazebo
打开终端2，运行mavros
roslaunch mavros px4.launch fcu_url:=”udp://:14540@127.0.0.1:14557”
打开终端3，启用外部控制程序
source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash
rosrun offb offb_node
二、多机仿真（参考http://wiki.ros.org/hector_quadrotor）
1.安装
mkdir -p hector_quadrotor_tutorial/src cd hector_quadrotor_tutorial wstool init src https://raw.github.com/tu-darmstadt-ros-pkg/hector_quadrotor/kinetic-devel/tutorials.rosinstall
2.编译
cd hector_quadrotor_tutorial
catkin_make
3.编写多机模型（四架）
cd ~/hector_quadrotor_tutorial/src/hector_quadrotor/hector_quadrotor_gazebo/launch/
gedit spawn_four_quadrotor.launch
编写模型代码
