Research Status and Prospect of UAV Swarm Combat Mission Planning
UAV has such combat advantages as low cost,no casualties,easy operation and high flexi-bility,etc.It has yield unusually brilliant results in many local conflicts,and UAV swarm is a new type of combat style with a lot of UAVs as the basic nodes.It has recently attracted continuous attentions from each military powers.As the core of the execution of combat mission of UAV swarm,mission planning is also one of the keys of giving full play to UAV swarm combat capability.The basic concept and process of UAV swarm combat mission planning are expounded,and then the two important parts of the task plan-ning model and constraints are emphatically analyzed from two aspects of task allocation and trajectory planning and the advantages and disadvantages of various classes of typical methods are compared.Final-ly,the key issues and development trend of UAV swarm combat mission planning are expounded from five aspects:scene construction,planning model,planning elements,deduction evaluation,and planning mode,which has reference significance for an exploration of combat style of UAV swarm and mission planning research of UAV swarm.
