Research on Collaborative and Confrontation of UAV Swarms Based on SAC-OD Rules

Published: 02 December 2021 Publication History

Abstract

With the introduction of the new generation of artificial intelligence technology into the military field, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarm operation, as an important form of intelligent operation, has attracted the attention of various countries. In this paper, we consider the problem of coordinated confrontation between UAV swarms in the plane area. An improved “SAC-OD” rules and combat strategy of UAV swarm are employed to establish the decision-making model for UAV swarm conflict where each UAV in the swarm is regarded as an independent individual. With the introduction of SAC-OD, each UAV keeps on interacting with its neighboring environment and the UAV swarm conflict is dynamic. Simulation experiments are conducted using MATLAB and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of the built decision-making model for UAV swarm conflict.
