Detailed Description
In order that those skilled in the art will better understand the technical solutions of the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention are further described below with reference to specific examples.
An unmanned aerial vehicle patrol path planning method for national parks and natural conservation places, referring to the attached figure 1, comprises the following steps:
step 1: inputting three-dimensional terrain data to generate a bounded three-dimensional region

And the unmanned aerial vehicle is required to complete the visual coverage task after traversing all path points.
Step 2: and establishing a constraint formula, taking the flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle as an optimization target, adding constraint conditions such as unmanned aerial vehicle traversal path points, unmanned aerial vehicle electric quantity limitation, unmanned aerial vehicle self-service charging circuit planning and the like, and establishing an unmanned aerial vehicle path planning model without considering uncontrollable factors such as wind power, visibility and unmanned aerial vehicle faults. The method comprises the following specific steps:
step 2.1: definition of noMan-machine flight path decision variablesx ij
x ij =1, representing unmanned aerial vehicle from a waypointiFly to the waypointj
x ij =0, meaning that the drone is not following a waypointiFly to the waypointj
Defining an objective function:

whereind ij Representing points of a pathiAnd a waypointjThe linear distance between the unmanned aerial vehicle and the target of the task is to optimize the flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle, so that the unmanned aerial vehicle can be minimized on the premise of completing the target of the task. Meanwhile, flight path decision variables need to ensure that a complete and feasible one-time traversal path can be formed, and the specific constraints are as follows:

secondly, when unmanned aerial vehicle leaves automatic airport, the electric quantity is full, and the formula is as follows:
Figure 925285DEST_PATH_IMAGE010
(6)
in addition, considering the flight distance between the unmanned aerial vehicle at the automatic airport and the path point, the number of times that the unmanned aerial vehicle comes and goes to the automatic airport and the distance that the unmanned aerial vehicle leaves the traversal path and flies to the automatic airport to charge are reduced as much as possible, and the objective function is updated:
Figure 524893DEST_PATH_IMAGE011
(7)。
in conclusion, an unmanned aerial vehicle path planning model is established, and comprises an objective function (7) and constraint formulas (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6).
And step 3: solving the unmanned aerial vehicle path planning model established in the step 2 by using a branch and bound algorithm, wherein the basic principle of the branch and bound algorithm is shown in the attached figure 2, the branch and bound algorithm has the main idea that a solution space is divided by enumerating feasible solutions of partial variables, the process is called as branch (branch), the number of the solution spaces after the branch is the same as the enumerated number, each branch represents a sub-solution set after the branch is divided, and the sub-solution sets are subsets of the solution space and are not intersected with each other. After each new branch is obtained, the lower bound of the objective function is calculated on the solution set corresponding to the branch, and the process is called as 'bound' (bound), and the generation of the new branch is accompanied by the bound of the solution space. After delimiting all branches, comparing the delimitations of all branches with the objective function values of the known feasible solutions, if the delimitations of the branches are larger than the objective function values of the known feasible solutions, it is indicated that no more optimal feasible solution exists in the solution set, the optimal solution of the objective function cannot exist in the solution set, the solution set is not further branched, and the process is called pruning; the above is the basic idea of the branch delimiting method. In order to improve the solving efficiency, the method also combines methods such as linear relaxation and greedy algorithm to improve the solving speed and quality, and obtains the traversal path of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The specific process of solving comprises the following steps:
step 3.1: the MIP is taken as the unmanned plane path planning problem to be solved,best sol the current optimal solution is used for continuously updating the searched optimal solution in the solving process, and any feasible solution in the MIP is taken as an initial value; and recording Lb as a lower boundary of a current solution space, and recording an objective function value corresponding to a current optimal solution searched in a solving process, wherein an initial value of Lb is- ∞.
Step 3.2: branch of
And S is a solution space of the MIP, and comprises each feasible solution meeting MIP constraint conditions. Consider thatx ij For one of the fixed unmanned aerial vehicle flight path decision variables, the solution space S can be divided into two mutually disjoint sub-solution spaces S 0 And S 1 Wherein S is 0 All feasible solutions inx ij The value is 0; s 1 All feasible solutions inx ij The value is 1; the sub-solution space partitioned by enumerating the flight path decision variable values is called a branch node.
Step 3.3: delimitation
In the divided two sub-solution spaces S 0 And S 1 The existence of feasible solutions and the lower bound of the objective function values in the two sub-solution spaces are analyzed.
1, searching whether a feasible solution exists in a sub-solution space according to a constraint condition in the MIP problem;
2, carrying out 'delimitation' operation on the sub-solution space with feasible solution to obtain a sub-solution space S 0 For example, a greedy algorithm is used in the sub-solution space S 0 Searching feasible solution, if the objective function value of feasible solution is less thanbest sol The objective function value of (2) is updatedbest sol (ii) a A linear relaxation method is introduced to calculate the lower bound of the feasible solution objective function value, and the flight path decision variable of the unmanned aerial vehicle with the unfixed value is taken as the variablex kl The value range of (1) is converted from {0,1} to [0,1]Expanding the sub-solution space S 0 The value range of flight path decision variables with no fixed value in the middle and the relaxed sub-solution space
Figure 663751DEST_PATH_IMAGE014
The CPLEX solver is used for calculation, and the value range of the variable is enlarged, so that the obtained value is obtained
Figure 43916DEST_PATH_IMAGE014
Must not be greater than the sub-solution space S 0 So the relaxed solution result is taken as the lower bound of the branch node and is marked as the lower bound of the objective function value of the feasible solutionLb 0 . The sub-solution space S 1 The same way of delimiting, updatingbest sol Calculate its corresponding lower boundLb 1
Further, the method for searching the feasible solution of the solution space by using the greedy algorithm is divided into three algorithms, which are respectively as follows: the system comprises a greedy algorithm based on unmanned aerial vehicle position starting, a greedy algorithm based on end point backtracking to the unmanned aerial vehicle position, and a greedy algorithm based on global shortest path point distance.
Algorithm 1, greedy algorithm based on unmanned aerial vehicle position: recording the current position of the unmanned aerial vehicle, searching the nearest non-traversed path point away from the unmanned aerial vehicle, if so, the unmanned aerial vehicle flies to the path point, updating the current position of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and continuing searching; if not, outputting the flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and ending.
Algorithm 2, greedy algorithm based on endpoint backtracking to unmanned aerial vehicle position: the position of the end point in the feasible solution of the flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle is fixed, so that the feasible solution can be searched from the backtracking angle, namely the unmanned aerial vehicle is understood to return to the initial position from the end point. The algorithm records the backtracking position of the unmanned aerial vehicle, searches the nearest non-traversed path point away from the unmanned aerial vehicle, if yes, the unmanned aerial vehicle flies to the path point, updates the backtracking position of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and continues searching; if not, outputting the flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and ending.
Algorithm 3, a greedy algorithm based on global shortest path point distance: the algorithm is different from the former two methods, does not track the current position of the unmanned aerial vehicle, but searches the edges among path points contained in the current solution space, selects the edge with the minimum Euclidean distance as an element in the traversal path of the unmanned aerial vehicle, updates the current solution space, continues to search the edge with the minimum distance, and stops searching when the solution space is an empty set.
When the lower bound of the branch node is calculated, the 3 greedy algorithms are used for calculating a plurality of local optimal solutions, a union set is taken, and flight path decision variables are defined in the union set, so that the search space of feasible solutions is greatly reduced; and then linearly relaxing, and rapidly obtaining an optimal solution through a CPLEX solver, thereby improving the precision of the lower bound.
Step 3.4: pruning
Screening out proper branch nodes according to the information obtained by the solution, wherein the screening process should meet the requirement that the optimal solution of the original MIP is reserved in the screened sub-solution space, and the deleted branch nodes do not have a more feasible solution than the known MIPbest sol Preferably, or the lower bound is larger than the known solution space lower bound, this process of deleting branch nodes is called "pruning" and is essentially a process of narrowing the search space. Specifically, when the branch node
Figure 824790DEST_PATH_IMAGE015
When the following conditions are met, pruning is required:
1,
Figure 810064DEST_PATH_IMAGE015
no feasible solution exists;
2,
Figure 854243DEST_PATH_IMAGE015
lower boundary of (1)
Figure 472438DEST_PATH_IMAGE016
Not less thanbest sol The objective function value of (1);
3, among all the branch nodes which are not pruned,
Figure 260265DEST_PATH_IMAGE015
is one of the largest lower bound nodes.
Step 3.5: iterative process of branching → delimiting → pruning for tree search
Updating the current solution space lower bound Lb sum according to the remaining branch nodes after pruningbest sol And then, iteratively performing operations of branching, delimiting and pruning, namely repeating the steps of 3.2 to 3.4, and completing tree search of the solution space. When there is no node that can continue branching, orbest sol When the objective function value of Lb is obtained, the search of the solution space is finished, the branch-and-bound algorithm is finished, and the branch-and-bound algorithm is outputbest sol As a result of the MIP solution.
Furthermore, in the iterative process, branching is performed by a depth-first or breadth-first search method, that is, the following two methods are available for selecting a branch node.
1, a depth-first search method: and comparing all the delimited branch nodes, selecting the branch node with the minimum lower bound for branching, and in planning the unmanned aerial vehicle path, if the branch nodes corresponding to all the flight paths in the current state of the unmanned aerial vehicle are pruned or are not selected as the branched nodes, ending the search.
2, breadth-first search method: and branching all newly generated branch nodes, and sequentially branching from small to large according to the size of the lower bound of the branch nodes.
The invention has been described in an illustrative manner, and it is to be understood that any simple variations, modifications or other equivalent changes which can be made by one skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention fall within the scope of the invention.
