Comparation of UAV Path Planning for Logistics Distribution

Abstract

AbstractIn recent years, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), has been increasingly applied to research in various fields due to its small size and fast speed. Among them, the path planning of UAV under various actual environmental constraints has been one of the hot issues for the past few years. UAV path planning is to find the optimal or feasible route from the starting point to the target point and meet the UAV performance indicators under specific constraints. The essence of the problem is the optimization problem of multi-objective function to find the extreme value under multi-constraints. In this paper, under the background of logistics distribution, Through the research of UAV path planning model and algorithm, this paper summarizes the UAV path planning problems, analyzes several common path planning algorithms in recent years, and carries out simulation experiments with MATLAB on several algorithms with high attention. On this basis, the future research direction is prospected.KeywordsLogistics distributionUnmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)Path planning modelPath planning algorithm
