Background:

  • Uninhabited Combat Air Vehicle (UCAV) path planning is a complex, high-dimensional optimization challenge.
  • Existing methods struggle with dynamic battlefield constraints and optimizing flight routes for safety and fuel efficiency.
  • The original Bat Algorithm (BA) has been applied but requires enhancement for improved performance.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel Bat Algorithm with Mutation (BAM) for UCAV path planning.
  • To enhance global convergence speed and maintain robustness in UCAV navigation.
  • To enable UCAVs to find safe paths, avoid threats, and minimize fuel consumption.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of the original Bat Algorithm (BA) for UCAV path planning.

  • Development and application of a modified Bat Algorithm with Mutation (BAM), incorporating inter-bat mutation during solution updates.
  • Comparative analysis of BAM against BA and other population-based optimization algorithms (ACO, BBO, DE, ES, GA, PBIL, PSO, SGA).

    • Main Results:

    • The proposed BAM algorithm demonstrates accelerated global convergence compared to the basic BA.
    • BAM effectively finds safe UCAV flight paths by connecting coordinates while avoiding threat areas and minimizing fuel costs.
    • Experimental results show BAM is more effective and feasible for UCAV path planning than other compared optimization methods.

    Conclusions:

    • The Bat Algorithm with Mutation (BAM) is a superior metaheuristic approach for UCAV path planning.
    • BAM offers significant improvements in convergence speed and robustness for complex navigation tasks.
    • This enhanced algorithm provides a practical and effective solution for safe and fuel-efficient UCAV operations in challenging environments.
