Multi-Objective Route Planning for UAV
Xing Chen, Rong Xu, Jiabao Zhao · 2017
This study aimed at solving the multi-UAV route planning problem. It is necessary to decompose the mission into sub-goals and to decide which UAV should execute which subgoal (i.e. task). In an application domain, there are sixty-eight fixed locations, which are to be inspected by four UAVs after traveling through the minimum time. An ant colony algorithm (ACO) is used for path planning, and greedy algorithm is used for task allocation.
