Algorithm for Low Altitude Penetration Aircraft Path Planning with Improved Ant Colony Algorithm

Abstract

The ant colony algorithm is a new class of population basic algorithm. The path planning is realized by the use of ant colony algorithm when the plane executes the low altitude penetration, which provides a new method for the path planning. In the paper the traditional ant colony algorithm is improved, and measures of keeping optimization, adaptively selecting and adaptively adjusting are applied, by which better path at higher convergence speed can be found. Finally the algorithm is implemented with computer simulation and preferable results are obtained.
