Abstract In order to maintain electromagnetic silence and avoid external interference, UAV clusters usually use purely azimuthal passive positioning methods to adjust the position of UAVs when attempting formation flights. However, due to the large number of UAVs flying in formation, it is difficult to perform effective localization, although they can keep flying at an altitude based on their own sensors. Therefore, this paper establishes a passive positioning model based on the triangulation method under the condition of pure azimuthal passive positioning, solves the coordinates of the UAV position of the received signal by using the least squares problem, and designs the UAV position adjustment scheme by using the optimal scheduling model based on the immune-genetic algorithm, so as to improve the positioning accuracy and survivability of the UAV.
