Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly used in different military missions. In this paper, we focus on the autonomous mission allocation and planning abilities for the UAV systems. Such abilities enable adaptation to more complex and dynamic mission environments. We first examine the mission planning of a single unmanned aerial vehicle. Based on that, we then investigate the multi-UAV cooperative system under the mission background of cooperative target destruction and show that it is a many-to-one rendezvous problem. A heterogeneous UAV cooperative mission planning model is then proposed where the mission background is generated based on the Voronoi diagram. We then adopt the tabu genetic algorithm (TGA) to obtain multi-UAV mission planning. The simulation results show that the single-UAV and multi-UAV mission planning can be effectively realized by the Voronoi diagram-TGA (V-TGA). It is also shown that the proposed algorithm improves the performance by 3% in comparison with the Voronoi diagram-particle swarm optimization (V-PSO) algorithm.

Mission planning problem for remote sensing satellite imaging is studied. Firstly, the time constraint satisfaction problem model is presented after analyzing the characteristic of time constraint. Then, An optimal path searching algorithm based on the discrete time window is proposed according to the non-uniqueness for satellite to mission in the visible time window. Simulation results verify the efficiency of the model and algorithm.

The motion planning problem of a nonholonomic multibody system is investigated. Nonholonomicity arises in many mechanical systems subject to nonintegrable velocity constraints or nonintegrable conservation laws. When the total angular momentum is zero, the control problem of system can be converted to the motion planning problem for a driftless control system. In this paper, we propose an optimal control approach for nonholonomic motion planning. The genetic algorithm is used to optimize the performance of motion planning to connect the initial and final configurations and to generate a feasible trajectory for a nonholonomic system. The feasible trajectory and its control inputs are searched through a genetic algorithm. The effectiveness of the genetic algorithm is demonstrated by numerical simulation.
