A study on the system structure of multi-UCAV cooperation mission planning

Mission planning for multi-UCAV cooperation is one of the keys to take the advantages of multiple UCAVs combating cooperatively and to maintain harmonies between the mission complexities and UCAV abilities. A distributed and concentrated composite architecture of multi-UCAV cooperation mission planning system was constructed. Based on the analysis of the cooperative UCAVs mission hierarchy, a hierarchical and iterative mission planning frame was introduced. The logic architecture of multi-UCAV cooperation mission planning system was put forward, and two key sub-problems, that is mission assignment and path planning, were analyzed.
