The method of planning the flight route of unmanned aerial vehicles while monitoring the behavior of dynamic objects in the forest-steppe area

Abstract

The flight route planning method for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to search for a dynamic object in a forest-steppe area was developed. Indicators and criteria of search efficiency with the participation of UAV were proposed. They allow you to choose the route that most fully meets the goals and objectives of the search. A numerical estimates of the search efficiency indicator were obtained for choosing a rational UAV flight route under conditions of uncertain behavior of a dynamic object.
