Description
Summary:Aiming at the limitation of the traditional four-dimensional (4-D) trajectory-prediction model of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), a 4-D trajectory combined prediction model based on a genetic algorithm is proposed. Based on historical flight data and the UAV motion equation, the model is weighted dynamically by a genetic algorithm, which can predict UAV trajectory and the time of entering the protection zone instantly and accurately. Then, according to the number of areas where the tangent line of the current trajectory point intersects with the collision area, alarm area, alert area, and the time of entering the protection zone, the UAV’s behavior intention can be estimated. The simulation experiments verify the dangerous behaviors of UAV under different danger levels, which provides reference for the subsequent maneuvering strategies.
