摘要
Purpose - It is aimed to provide an efficient algorithm for path planning in guidance of autonomous unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) through 3D terrain environments. Design/methodology/approach - As a stochastic search method, vibrational genetic algorithm (VGA) is improved and used to accelerate the algorithm for path planning. Findings - Using VGA, an efficient path planning algorithm for autonomous UAV was obtained under low population rate and short generation cycle conditions. Originality/value - VGA decreased the required time for optimal path solution beside its simplicity. Low population rate and short generation cycle are the main benefits of VGA.
