摘要

In this paper a real-time cooperative path decision algorithmfor UAV surveillance is proposed. The surveillance mission includesmultiple objectives: i) navigate the UAVs safely in a hostile environment;ii) search for new targets in the surveillance region; iii) classifythe detected targets; iv) maintain tracks on the detected targets.To handle these competing objectives, a layered decision frameworkis proposed, in which different objectives are deemed relevant atdifferent decision layers according to their priorities. Compared toprevious work, in which multiple objectives are integrated into asingle global objective function, this layered decision frameworkallows detailed specification of the desired performance for eachobjective and guarantees that an objective with high priority willbe better satisfied by eliminating possible compromises from otherless important ones. In addition, specific path decision strategiesthat are suited to the individual objectives can be used at differentdecision layers. An important objective of the path decision algorithmis to navigate the UAV safely in the hostile environment. Toachieve this, it is shown necessary to increase the time horizon of thepath decisions. In order to overcome the computational explosion ofan optimal multi-step look-ahead path decision strategy, a RolloutPolicy is proposed. This policy has moderate complexity and, whenused in the layered decision framework, it is able to find safe pathseffectively and efficiently. When the number of UAVs is large, theformation of UAV decision groups based on a nearest neighbor ruleis proposed to control the complexity of the path decision algorithm.Further flexibility of assigning different objectives to the UAVs isalso discussed. Simulation results show that the proposed path decisionalgorithm can guide the group of UAVs efficiently and safelyfor the multi-objective surveillance mission.
