Description

Method for distributing reconnaissance tasks in unmanned aerial vehicle cluster air area
Technical Field
The invention relates to a task allocation method, in particular to an allocation method of a reconnaissance task in an unmanned aerial vehicle cluster aerial region, and belongs to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle control.
Background
The distribution problem of the reconnaissance tasks in the aerial region of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster is essentially that regions with different reconnaissance values are reasonably distributed to multiple types of unmanned aerial vehicles carrying sensors with different performances, so that the efficiency and the benefit of completing the reconnaissance tasks are the largest, and the cost is the smallest.
In the prior art, a CBAA algorithm (consensus based allocation algorithm) with a single task allocation problem is improved to a CBBA algorithm (consensus based allocated bundle algorithm) suitable for a multi-task allocation problem, and the methods can better react to task situations of each node of a cluster based on a distributed auction algorithm and a consistency idea. However, these methods are only suitable for the task allocation process, but are not suitable for the need of recovering the unmanned aerial vehicle in the actual reconnaissance task.
Moreover, the task allocation problem of the multi-unmanned aerial vehicle applying the CBBA algorithm focuses on solving the mathematical scheduling problem of task allocation, when the target of 'low and slow' is faced in the actual reconnaissance task, the target has probability, the benefits of the reconnaissance tasks allocated to different areas are not accurate values, and the recovery of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster is also important except the completion of the task allocation in the actual reconnaissance task. Particularly, for widely dispersed 'low-slow small' targets, a large number of unmanned aerial vehicles need to consume a large amount of energy to complete the return flight requirement after the reconnaissance mission is finished, and the start of the next reconnaissance mission is indirectly influenced, so that the reconnaissance efficiency and the benefit are greatly reduced.
On the other hand, in consideration of constraints of two influences of the total flight distance of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster and the task distance reached by each unmanned aerial vehicle, an optimal task decision method is adopted in the prior art, but in the optimal task decision method, the effect that each unmanned aerial vehicle tends to execute a task closer to the takeoff position of the unmanned aerial vehicle is not obvious. Particularly, when the target is low, slow and small, the detection area is scattered and uncertain due to the wide target dispersion range, and the traditional optimal task decision method is not suitable.
Therefore, it is necessary to provide a method for allocating the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster aerial area reconnaissance missions to solve the above problems.

The elements in the set are used to represent the last time of information interaction between drone i and its neighboring drone, which is the exclusion of this nullAll unmanned aerial vehicles except man-machine.
Before task allocation, a bundle set is initialized, and all sets are set as empty sets.
In step S3, the following substeps are included:
s31, obtaining marginal benefits of the unmanned aerial vehicle i to the reconnaissance area j;
s32, judging whether the unmanned aerial vehicle i can obtain the task of the reconnaissance area j;
s33, determining the path sequence P of the scout area jiThe insertion position in (1);
and S34, updating the beam set of the unmanned aerial vehicle i.
In step S31, the marginal benefit is that the drone i follows the path sequence piThe benefit of reconnaissance area j can be expressed as:

wherein,

Figure BDA0003027576620000101

By taking the starting point of unmanned aerial vehicle i as a task and inserting the starting point of unmanned aerial vehicle i in the path sequence PiThe last position of (a) is constrained by the last need to return to the starting point when calculating the benefit of drone i to perform the task.
Further, an unmanned aerial vehicle i starting point is used as a reconnaissance area and inserted into the path sequence PiAfter the last position, drone i executes the order of path PiThe total revenue obtained for all tasks allocated can be expressed as:
Figure BDA0003027576620000102
wherein, mujThe probability of the target to be detected in the detection area j is represented, namely the existence of the flight target with low speed and small speed in the actual detection task is considered to be uncertain, and the probability mu is needed for the calculated fixed income valuejCorrecting;

According to the formulas (two) - (four), the unmanned aerial vehicle i follows the path sequence PiGain of scouting jth scout areaIs determined by the marginal benefit and path consumption constraint for completing the task and the existence probability correction, the marginal benefit cij(Pi) Can be simplified as follows:
Figure BDA0003027576620000111
wherein, tijIndicating the order of unmanned plane i along path PiTime spent to scout area j;

Valjvalue coefficients inherent to the scout area j, typically 0 < ValjAnd < 1, further, different scout areas j have different value coefficients, the larger the target hazard in the scout area j is, the higher the value coefficient of the scout area j is, and the specific coefficient value can be set by a person skilled in the art according to actual requirements.
In the invention, the takeoff position of the unmanned aerial vehicle is fixed at the end point of the task path, so the recovery consumption of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster is also considered, the return voyage of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster also belongs to the task, the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster is more suitable for actual reconnaissance task distribution, and the task path of each unmanned aerial vehicle approaches to form a closed loop, which is in line with the aim of facilitating recovery.
In step S32, the drone i determines whether the reconnaissance area j exceeds its flight range, which is determined by the remaining power or fuel of the drone, the flight speed of the drone, and the like, which are not described in detail herein.
Further, if the flight range is exceeded, the unmanned aerial vehicle i cannot obtain the mission of the reconnaissance area j, and if the flight range is within the flight range, the unmanned aerial vehicle i can obtain the mission of the reconnaissance area j.
Repeating the process, judging all the missions of the reconnaissance area of the unmanned aerial vehicle i, and updating the missions to a mission beam set.
In step S33, the scout area j is inserted into different positions in the route order, the profit is calculated, and the position at the time of the maximum profit is taken as the scout area jThe order of the paths P of the region of interest jiThe insertion position in (1) can be expressed as:
Figure BDA0003027576620000112
wherein,
Figure BDA0003027576620000121
indicating the location of n where the benefit is greatest.
And further, updating the obtained path sequence to a task time sequence set, and further updating the obtained marginal profit to a winner bid set.
In step S34, steps S31 to S33 are repeated, reconnaissance area allocation and route order determination are performed for each drone, and the task bundle set, the task time sequence set, the winner set, and the winner bid set in the bundle set are updated to complete task allocation.
In step S3, since the task allocation is realized based on the maximum benefit of each drone to the reconnaissance area, which may cause the situation of task duplicate allocation, in step S4, the resolution of the duplicate allocation task is performed, which includes the following sub-steps:
s41, all unmanned aerial vehicles communicate with each other, and the unmanned aerial vehicle corresponding to the maximum bid value in the winner bid set is selected to execute the task of the reconnaissance area j;
and S42, repeating the step S41 and completing the distribution of all conflict tasks.
In step S41, the drones communicate with each other, share their respective winner and winner bid sets, and record the time of communication.
Further, if a plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles successfully bid on the same reconnaissance area j in the winner set, selecting the unmanned aerial vehicle corresponding to the maximum bid value in the winner set to execute the task of the reconnaissance area j;
specifically, by comparing the marginal benefit of the unmanned aerial vehicle i with the marginal benefits of other unmanned aerial vehicles, whether the unmanned aerial vehicle i obtains the mission of the reconnaissance area j is determined, which may be expressed as:
Figure BDA0003027576620000122
wherein, yijRepresents the highest of the marginal gains of other drones:
if the profit of the unmanned aerial vehicle i in the reconnaissance area j task is higher than the maximum value of the marginal profits of other unmanned aerial vehicles, the auction succeeds, and the reconnaissance area j task is obtained;
if the income of the j task of the unmanned aerial vehicle i in the reconnaissance area is lower than the maximum value of the marginal income of other unmanned aerial vehicles, the auction fails, and the j task of the reconnaissance area is not executed
Further, for other drones not obtaining the task of the reconnaissance area j, the task in the reconnaissance area j and the tasks after the reconnaissance area j are emptied, and step S3 is repeated to re-distribute the task after the reconnaissance area j, so as to update the drone bundle.
Further, after unmanned aerial vehicle i communicates with other unmanned aerial vehicles each other, the timestamp that unmanned aerial vehicle i restrainted in the set is updated, and the expression is:
Figure BDA0003027576620000131
wherein, gikRepresenting the communication connectivity situation of drone i and drone k, gikIf the communication between drone i and drone k is possible, the interaction time τ at this time is recorded as 1r
If communication is not possible, the beam set of drone k is obtained from other drones, for example, drone m, and the latest interaction time when drone k information is obtained from drone m is recorded.
The mode of communication between the machine and update time stamp avoids many unmanned aerial vehicles to carry out close task respectively, avoids the repeated execution of task.
In step S42, after each drone updates the beam set, step S41 is repeated multiple times until all reconnaissance areas j complete a single allocation, completing conflict resolution.
Further preferably, after the conflict resolution is completed, the unmanned aerial vehicles in some reconnaissance areas may not execute, and at this time, the steps S3 to S4 are repeated, so that the reconnaissance areas can be allocated to the executable unmanned aerial vehicles, and thus conflict-free task allocation is completed.

In step S32, the drones U1, U2, and U3 respectively determine whether the reconnaissance areas T1 to T9 exceed their flight ranges, and if not, it indicates that the reconnaissance area mission can be obtained, and if it exceeds the flight range, the drones cannot obtain the reconnaissance area mission.
In step S33, the drone U1 inserts the reconnaissance area j into different positions in the route order, calculates earnings according to the earnings index in step S1, and takes the position at which the maximum earnings are obtained as the route order P of the reconnaissance area jiThe insertion position in (1) can be expressed as:

and updating the obtained path sequence to a task time sequence set, and updating the obtained marginal profit to a winner bid set.

In step S41, U1, U2 and U3 communicate with each other, share the respective winner and winner bid sets and record the time at which the communication took place.
For the reconnaissance area T1, the drone corresponding to the maximum bid value in the winner bid set is selected to perform the reconnaissance area mission by comparing the marginal profit of the drone with the marginal profit of other drones, which may be expressed as
