Abstract
- The unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) path planning problem is a complex global optimization problem that aims to seek an optimal flight route that avoids the threats and constraints on the battlefield. However, as the number and degree of the path threats increases, the recent UCAV path planning algorithms all suffer from being trapped into local optima with a low convergence rate, which leads to the poor performance. Therefore, to resolve these problems, we propose a Cooperative co-Evolution (CE)-based Spider Monkey Optimization (SMO) algorithm, named CESMO to address UCAV path planning problem for avoiding obstacles. First, a cooperative co-evolution strategy is proposed to prevent the algorithms from falling into local optima easily, enhancing the coherence of the path. After that, a further division is applied to the algorithm for diversifying the search direction of each individual in the sub-groups. Finally, the spider monkey optimization-based search mechanism is designed to further strengthen the search efficiency and boost the convergence rate. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method is more competitive than other state-of-the-art evolutionary algorithms for UCAV path planning problem considering the quality and stability of the final paths.
