Real-Time Biobjective Uav Route Planning
Abstract
Unmanned air vehicles (UAVs) are unpiloted aircrafts that have use for both military andcivilian purposes. They are widely used for many purposes such as reconnaissance,surveillance against crimes, agricultural applications, and minimizing hazardous effects ofnatural disasters. Route planning for these vehicles comprises determining the path of theUAV in visiting the targets. Although a single objective is used in many such problems, thereis usually a tradeoff that needs to be taken into account. Minimizing distance traveled andminimizing radar detection threat are two meaningful conflicting objectives in manyapplications. In the majority of the research where two objectives are considered, a simplelinear aggregation of the two objectives is considered, practically converting the problem intoa single objective problem. In the recent past, we have addressed this bi-objective problem inseveral studies. In those problems, we considered a static setting.
