An Energy-Balanced Path Planning Algorithm for Multiple Ferrying UAVs Based on GA by Lisong Wang, Xiaoliang Zhang, Pingyu Deng, Jiexiang Kang, Zhongjie Gao, Liang Liu

“…Further, we model the energy-balanced path-planning problem for multiple ferrying UAVs, which actually is a multiobject optimization problem of minimizing the planned path length and minimizing the variance of all ferrying UAVs’ energy-factor. Based on the genetic algorithm, we design and implement an energy-balanced path planning algorithm (EMTSPA) for multiple ferrying UAVs to solve this multiobject optimization problem. …”
