Routing Optimization of Ultra Violet Light Communication Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Formation Based on JAYA Algorithm
Due to its high flexibility, good safety and all-weather work, ultraviolet light communication is considered to be a potential communication solution for the emergency communication Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) formation. Based on the Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) algorithm, and combined with JAYA intelligent optimization algorithm, a novel routing optimization algorithm Rcomp JAYA LEACH (RJLEACH) is proposed to improve the effective operation time of the ultraviolet light communication UAV formation. The algorithm is applied to optimize the formation routing of ultraviolet light communication UAVs with different structures, and the results obtained by other algorithms are compared and analyzed. The results show that RJLEACH algorithm reduces the residual energy variance between UAV nodes in the cluster head election stage, and the search for the optimal route reduces the energy consumption of inter-cluster communication. Finally, the time of the first node's death and half nodes' death in the network are prolonged by 31.8% and 13.8%, respectively compared with the classic LEACH algorithm, and the energy utilization rate is significantly improved, which can gain valuable time for tasks such as disaster relief and emergency communication.
