Abstract

The invention provides an unmanned aerial vehicle formation shape forming and maintaining method based on an artificial potential field method. The method specifically comprises the steps of initializing unmanned aerial vehicle attributes; designing an unmanned aerial vehicle formation shape; calculating coordinate positions of expected unmanned aerial vehicles corresponding to formation unmannedaerial vehicles; setting attractive potential field functions of the formation unmanned aerial vehicles and the corresponding expected unmanned aerial vehicles; setting a repulsive potential field function among the formation unmanned aerial vehicles; and enabling the formation unmanned aerial vehicles to make a dynamic response. By means of the artificial potential field algorithm, and in combination with position differences and speed differences between the formation unmanned aerial vehicles and the corresponding expected unmanned aerial vehicles, the unmanned aerial vehicle formation shapeforming and maintaining are realized, and the unmanned aerial vehicle formation shape forming efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of heuristic algorithms, and in particular relates to a method for forming and maintaining a UAV formation based on an artificial potential field method. Background technique [0002] As an extremely important component on the modern battlefield, drones are also a place where cutting-edge technologies of various countries are displayed. The investment in scientific research in the field of drones continues to increase. Multi-UAV coordinated operations are the main form of future UAV operations, and UAV formation is the basis of multi-UAV coordinated operations and an indispensable part of UAV technology. [0003] At the same time, the multi-UAV group is often in an unknown dynamic environment, and the battlefield situation is changing rapidly. During the formation flight, the UAVs may fail or be shot down and quit the formation. At the same time, the mission points may also move dynamically. The formation formation i...
