Path Planning Based on the Ant Algorithm for a Reconnaissance UAV
Bai Jun-qiang · Flight Dynamics · 2005
To improve the efficiency of the UAV's mission, the highly effective path the UAV will fly during the execution of the mission should be planned before the mission carrying out, which give a promise for the UAV to arrive at the target with a higher survivalbility and an acceptable path length. For this requirement, this paper presents a method based on the ant algorithm to plan the path. Simulation results preliminarily show that the optimal method has some good characteristic.
