Priority-based routing of unmanned combat aerial vehicles

摘要

This paper considers routing of unmanned combat aerial vehicles to destroy a set of targets characterized by priorities, munitions levels, and time windows. Some additional constraints to be considered are the unmanned combat aerial vehicles' dynamics and collision avoidance. This paper illustrates an integrated formulation of such a routing problem. The complexity of the problem is addressed through a receding horizon strategy and a decomposition method. Using some test problems, we have established the applicability of these approaches to solve the routing problem.
