Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-step optimization method of unmanned aerial vehicle group region coverage based on an ant colony algorithm. The method comprises the following steps: setting the total number of ants in an ant colony algorithm and the number of dimensions of each ant; letting s represent an sth search, wherein s belongs to [1, SearchNum], SearchNum represents the number of searches, and iteration is carried out D times for each search; letting d represent a dth iteration, wherein d belongs to [0, D]; calculating a first data structure AntSwarm (s, d) after the dth iteration of the sth search and a second data structure OptSwarm (s, d) before the dth iteration of the sth search; adding 1 to d until a second data structure OptSwarm (s, D) before the Dth iteration of the sth search is obtained, and getting a complete optimal path of an unmanned aerial vehicle group after the sth search; and adding 1 to s until a complete optimal path of the unmanned aerial vehicle group after a (SearchNum)th search is obtained, and completing a multi-step optimization process of unmanned aerial vehicle group region coverage based on the ant colony algorithm, wherein the complete optimal path of the unmanned aerial vehicle group after the (SearchNum)th search includes the optimal path pSearchNum of the unmanned aerial vehicle group marching forward InnerStep steps after the (SearchNum)th search and the optimal velocity vSearchNum of the unmanned aerial vehicle group marching forward InnerStep steps after the (SearchNum)th search.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of airborne radar technology, and in particular relates to a multi-step optimization method for area coverage of unmanned aerial vehicle groups based on an ant colony algorithm, which is applicable to the track planning problem of real-time optimal coverage monitoring area of ​​unmanned early warning aircraft groups.
