Abstract

The invention discloses an unmanned aerial vehicle route dynamic planning method based on A* search, which is used for solving the technical problem that the existing method has poor adaptability for the situation that long-strip shaped polygonal threatening regions or no-fly zones exist in the complex environment. The unmanned aerial vehicle route dynamic planning method comprises the steps of: constructing circumscribed circles of polygonal threatening regions or no-fly zones at first, and judging whether a line segment formed by a starting point and a target point intersects with each polygonal circumscribed circle; further judging whether the line segment and the polygonal threatening regions or no-fly zones have an intersection point or not if the line segment intersects with the polygonal circumscribed circles; and if so, planning and generating a route directly avoiding the polygonal threatening regions or no-fly zones based on an A* search algorithm, wherein a dead zone escaping and two-step optimizing strategies is adopted during the route planning process for planning and generating route points in sequence. The unmanned aerial vehicle route dynamic planning method can adapt to the situation that the long-strip shaped polygonal threatening regions or no-fly zones exist in the complex environment, and can adapt to the situation that the circular or polygonal threatening regions or no-fly zones are overlapped with one another.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a dynamic planning method for a path of an unmanned aerial vehicle, in particular to an A* search-based dynamic planning method for a path of an unmanned aerial vehicle. Background technique [0002] UAV path planning is to find an optimal or feasible path from the starting point to the end point for the UAV under given constraints within the planning area. When there is a sudden danger / threat that needs to be avoided or a task change occurs during the flight of the UAV, a safe and feasible path needs to be dynamically generated. The path dynamic programming problem is essentially a multi-objective optimization problem with many constraints. [0003] The document "Self-optimized A* UAV route planning algorithm based on Laguerre graph, Systems Engineering and Electronic Technology, 2015, Vol.37(3), p577-582" discloses a LA-Star algorithm for UAV route planning. The algorithm first simplifies the polygonal threat area and the p...
