Abstract:In order to realize the highly coordinated attack of multiple anti-ship missiles in a constant wind, an algorithm of cooperative path planning for multiple missiles in the presence of a known constant wind, based on genetic algorithms, was put forward. Firstly, the effect of a constant wind to the ground velocity and the flight time of a path of missile were analyzed. Secondly, how to evaluate paths was discussed in detail where a synchronism evaluation strategy changed along with the evolution of populations was adopted, and the operators of genetic algorithms were designed. Finally, simulation results indicated that the cooperative path planning algorithm could produce highly cooperative paths, which evaded threats successfully, in the presence of a known constant wind.
