A new model for optimal TF/TA flight path design problem

Abstract: This paper focuses on the three dimensional flight path planning for a UAV on a low altitude terrain following/terrain avoidance mission. Using an approximate grid-based discretisation scheme, we transform the continuous optimisation problem into a search problem over a finite network, and apply a variant of the shortest-path algorithm to this problem. In other words using the three dimensional terrain information, three dimensional flight path from a starting point to an end point, minimising a cost function … Show more

“…In this paper a modified model was proposed to formulate the multi-objective optimal and dynamic constraint 4D trajectory planning for TF/TA flight. This is a continuation of the previous work (23) in which by using only kinematic parameters and single objective optimisation, 3D path was generated. In the proposed work, according to the optimality conditions of a multi objective problem combining flight time, fuel consumption and the path length, a variant of the constrained .…”

“…The interested reader is referred to (3,4) for more discussion about different route planning approaches. In work (23) , a model of the route planning problem based on a layered network flow structure and shortest path criterion, was presented. By using the kinematic model of a UAV, only kinematic constraints of the UAV were considered.…”

“…. (12) Where v is the UAV speed, γ is the climb angle, ψ is the heading angle, and x, y, z are the inertial co-ordinates of the UAV position. This discrete UAV model is based on the assumption that there exist inner and outer loop navigation control laws, which enable the UAV to track an acceptable and safe trajectory as long as speed, climb angle and heading angle rates satisfy the physical constraints.…”
