Abstract
For multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), real-time task allocation is essential in cooperative and persistent tracking of multiple ground moving targets (GMTs) in urban. In this paper, an integrated dynamic task allocation method via event-triggered is proposed. Firstly, a time-varying zero–one integer programming (ZOIP) model is built for task allocation and the receding horizon framework is proposed for path planning such that a mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problem is formulated. Using the relaxed order of satisfactory degrees, a fuzzy satisfaction goal programming model with three objectives and priorities is designed as the time-varying reward in the integrated task allocation. Secondly, in order to reduce the computational load, an event-triggered mechanism with three triggering conditions is designed to conduct switch of integrated optimization and pure path planning. Thirdly, in view of the difficulty of solving the integrated task allocation MINLP model, a binary hybrid particle swarm optimization (BHPSO) algorithm is employed. Finally, simulations validate that the proposed method is effective and efficient.
