A group of UAVs can never accomplish difficult tasks without formation because if disordered they do not work any better than a single vehicle,and a single vehicle is limited by its undeveloped intelligence and insufficient load. Among the many formation methods,consensus has attracted much attention because of its effectiveness and simplicity. However,at the beginning of convergence,overshoot and oscillation are universal because of the limitation of communication and a lack of forecasting,which are inborn shortcomings of consensus. It is natural to modify this method with lots of optimizers. In order to reduce overshoot and smooth trajectories, this paper first adopted particle swarm optimization( PSO), then pigeon-inspired optimization( PIO) to modify the consensus. PSO is a very popular optimizer,while PIO is a new method,both work but still retain disadvantages such as residual oscillation. As a result,it was necessary to modify PIO,and a pigeon-inspired optimization with a slow diving strategy( SD-PIO) is proposed. Convergence analysis was performed on the SD-PIO based on the Banach fixed-point theorem and conditions sufficient for stability were achieved.Finally,a series of comparative simulations were conducted to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed approach.展开更多

文摘This paper proposes a comprehensive design scheme for the extremum seeking control(ESC)of the unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)close formation flight.The proposed design scheme combines a Newton-Raphson method with an extended Kalman filter(EKF)to dynamically estimate the optimal position of the following UAV relative to the leading UAV.To reflect the wake vortex effects reliably,the drag coefficient induced by the wake vortex is considered as a performance function.Then,the performance function is parameterized by the first-order and second-order terms of its Taylor series expansion.Given the excellent performance of nonlinear estimation,the EKF is used to estimate the gradient and the Hessian matrix of the parameterized performance function.The output feedback of the proposed scheme is determined by iterative calculation of the Newton-Raphson method.Compared with the traditional ESC and the classic ESC,the proposed design scheme avoids the slow continuous time integration of the gradient.This allows a faster convergence of relative position extremum.Furthermore,the proposed method can provide a smoother command during the seeking process as the second-order term of the performance function is taken into account.The convergence analysis of the proposed design scheme is accomplished by showing that the output feedback is a supermartingale sequence.To improve estimation performance of the EKF,a improved pigeon-inspired optimization(IPIO)is proposed to automatically tune the noise covariance matrix.Monte Carlo simulations for a three-UAV close formation show that the proposed design scheme is robust to the initial position of the following UAV.

文摘Aiming at the complex and restrictive characteristics of human resource allocation in multiple scientific university research projects, an improved pigeon-inspired optimization(IPIO) algorithm is proposed wherein loss minimization and the shortest project delay time are considered as optimization goals. Firstly, mathematical modelling of the problem is carried out, and the multi-objective optimization problem is transformed into a single-objective optimization problem by means of a weighted solution. In the second step, the traditional pigeon-inspired optimization(PIO) algorithm is discretized, and an adaptive parameter strategy is adopted to improve the shortcomings of the algorithm itself. Finally, by comparing the simulation results with the original algorithm and the genetic algorithm in the optimization of human resource allocation in multiple projects, the feasibility and superiority of the proposed algorithm in the optimization of human resource allocation in multi-scientific research projects is verified.

文摘In this paper, a novel approach is proposed for solving the parameter design problem of brushless direct current(BLDC) motor, which is based on the membrane computing(MC) and pigeon-inspired optimization(PIO) algorithm. The motor parameter design problem is converted to an optimization problem with five design parameters and six constraints. The PIO algorithm is introduced into the framework of MC for improving the global convergence performance. The hybrid algorithm can improve the population diversity with better searching efficiency. Comparative simulations are conducted, and comparative results are given to show the feasibility and effectiveness of our proposed hybrid algorithm for high nonlinear optimization problems.

文摘This paper models the Mars UAV formation exploring the surface of Mars,and then the formation obstacle avoidance is brought up with the assumptions of the Mars circumstance and the UAVs.Based on their specialty,constrained Delaunay triangulation,Yen-K shortest path algorithm,the collaborative function,and the improved pigeon-inspired optimization(PIO)algorithm are integrated to solve the obstacle avoidance for the formation.Since the steering maneuver costs much energy and increases instabilities vulnerable in extraterrestrial exploration,the paper focuses on the route smoothness problem.The PIO is improved to be suitable for smooth routes and is compatible with other PIO variants.The simulation results show that the sum of the steering angle,namely the performance index,is e®ectively reduced and satises the obstacle avoidance requirements for Mars UAV formation.
文摘Purpose–The purpose of this paper is to simplify the Explicit Nonlinear Model Predictive Controller(ENMPC)by linearizing the trajectory with Quantum-behaved Pigeon-Inspired Optimization(QPIO).Design/methodology/approach–The paper deduces the nonlinear model of the quadrotor and uses the ENMPC to track the trajectory.Since the ENMPC has high demand for the state equation,the trajectory needed to be differentiated many times.When the trajectory is complicate or discontinuous,QPIO is proposed to linearize the trajectory.Then the linearized trajectory will be used in the ENMPC.Findings–Applying the QPIO algorithm allows the unequal distance sample points to be acquired to linearize the trajectory.Comparing with the equidistant linear interpolation,the linear interpolation error will be smaller.Practical implications–Small-sized quadrotors were adopted in this research to simplify the model.The model is supposed to be accurate and differentiable to meet the requirements of ENMPC.Originality/value–Traditionally,the quadrotor model was usually linearized in the research.In this paper,the quadrotormodel waskept nonlinear and the trajectorywill be linearizedinstead.Unequaldistance sample points were utilized to linearize the trajectory.In this way,the authors can get a smaller interpolation error.This method can also be applied to discrete systems to construct the interpolation for trajectory tracking.
文摘Purpose-With increasing demand of localization service in challenging environments where Global Navigation Satellite Systems(GNSS)signalsare considerably weak,a powerful approach,the collective detection(CD),has been developed.However,traditional CD techniques are computationally intense due to the large clock bias search space.Therefore,the purpose of this paper is to develop a new scheme of CD with less computational burden,in order to accelerate the detection and location process.Design/methodology/approach-This paper proposes a new scheme of CD.It reformulates the problem ofGNSS signal detection as an optimization problem,and solves it with the aid of an improved Pigeon-Inspired Optimization(PIO).With the improved PIO algorithm adopted,the positioning algorithm arrives to evaluate only a part of the points in the search space,avoiding the problems of grid-search method which is universally adopted.Findings-Faced with the complex optimization problem,the improved PIO algorithm proves to have good performance.In the acquisition of simulated and real signals,the proposed scheme of CD with the improved PIO algorithm also have better efficiency,precision and stability than traditional CD algorithm.Besides,the improved PIO algorithm also proves to be a better candidate to be integrated into the proposed scheme than particle swarm optimization,differential evolution and PIO.Originality/value-The novelty associated with this paper is the proposition of the new scheme of CD and the improvement of PIO algorithm.Thus,this paper introduces another possibility to ameliorate the traditional CD.
