Research on Multi UAV Collaborative Trajectory Optimization Based on User Priority

A trajectory optimization algorithm based on user priority for multi UAV collaborative conditions (TOUP) is proposed to address the trajectory problem of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) base stations collecting data from users of different priority levels. We divided the combat area and calculated the optimal data collection path. Based on the number of drone base stations, we divided the tasks and constructed a utility function based on user priority, drone energy consumption, and task completion time factors to optimize the movement trajectory of drone base stations. Simulation analysis shows that, considering user priority, the algorithm effectively balances the overall performance of drone energy consumption and task completion time.
