Popis: The three-dimensional path planning of UAVs is a relatively complex global optimization problem.Its goal is to obtain the optimal or close to optimal flight path considering threats and constraints.Aiming at the problems of whale algorithm in the three-dimensional trajectory planning of UAVs,it is easy to fall into the local optimum,and the convergence speed is slow,and the convergence accuracy is not high enough.A whale optimization algorithm based on Lévy flight is proposed to solve the pro-blem of UAV three-dimensional path planning.In the iterative process of the algorithm,Levy flight is added to randomly disturb the optimal solution;an information exchange mechanism is introduced to update the individual's position through the current global optimal solution,the individual memory optimal solution and the neighborhood optimal solution;better trade-offs local convergence and global development.The simulation results show that the path planning algorithm proposed in this paper can effectively avoid the threat zone,the convergence speed is faster,the convergence accuracy is higher,and it is less likely to fall into the local optimal solution.When the number of iterations is 300 and the number of populations is 50,the cost function value obtained by the LWOA algorithm is 91.1% of the PSO algorithm,92.1% of the GWO algorithm,95.9% of the WOA algorithm,and the track cost is smaller.
