Research on task allocation and path planning algorithms in Multi-UAV cooperative combat
With the rapid development of UAV technology,multi-UAV cooperative operation has become an important development direction of UAV system.In multi-UAV cooperative operations,mission assignment and path planning are two key issues,and their quality directly affects the operational effectiveness of the whole system.This paper studies the task allocation and path planning in multi-UAV collaborative operation.The mathematical model of multi-UAV cooperative operation is established,and the problem is formally described.We propose a task assignment algorithm based on mixed integer programming and a path planning algorithm based on an improved A∗ algorithm.The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by simulation experiments and compared with other classical algorithms.The experimental results show that the task assignment and path planning algorithm can improve the effectiveness of multi-UAV cooperation.
