[0005] But it also has some obvious defects: the randomness of the algorithm will lead to the existence of more redundant nodes, and the generated path is not a smooth path, which cannot be directly followed by an agent with non-holonomic constraints

Embodiment

[0039] The present invention provides a two-way pruning optimization RRT path planning algorithm based on non-holonomic constraints of unmanned vehicles, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0040] S1: Use the RRT algorithm to search for a path:

[0041] Such as figure 1 The schematic diagram of the RRT algorithm node expansion is shown. The algorithm takes the starting point as the root node, generates a sampling node uniformly and randomly each time, and selects the point closest to it on the tree. From this point to the direction of the sampling point, follow a fixed step Long expand the next node, and repeat the above process until the target node is added to the tree, and a path from the start point to the end point is found.

[0042] In the obstacle environment, the path generated by using the above RRT planning algorithm is as follows: figure 2 shown. figure 2 , the black bar area is the obstacle space, the white area is the free space, the dot in the...

Abstract

The invention relates to an improved method for planning paths of driverless vehicles by the aid of rapidly random-exploring trees. The improved method is characterized by particularly comprising steps of 1), searching and acquiring an initial path from a starting point to an end point by the aid of RRT (rapidly random-exploring tree) algorithms; 2), pruning the initial path by the aid of one-waypruning processes to obtain preliminary pruned paths; 3), further reducing the lengths of the preliminary pruned paths by the aid of bidirectional pruning processes; 4), removing sharp included angleson the paths by the aid of peak clipping processes; 5), carrying out smoothing processing on the paths without clipped peaks to obtain follow paths of the driverless vehicles. Compared with the priorart, the improved method has the advantages that the paths are short, non-holonomic constraints are taken into consideration, and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of path planning for unmanned vehicles, in particular to an improved fast search random tree path planning method for unmanned vehicles. Background technique [0002] Due to the advantages of unmanned vehicles in reducing traffic accidents and casualties, alleviating and reducing traffic congestion, and reducing the energy consumed by users in driving, etc., they have received extensive attention from academia and industry. The implementation of autonomous vehicles involves various fields, including perception, planning, decision-making, and control technologies. To realize autonomous navigation of unmanned vehicles, global path planning is of great significance. Path planning capability is the foundation of unmanned vehicles. Only unmanned vehicles with good path planning capabilities can truly liberate humans and autonomously take humans to their destinations. [0003] Path planning refers to finding a path from a...
