  • 摘要: 针对无人机集群系统, 提出了一种性能函数引导的深度强化学习控制方法, 同时评估性能函数的示范经验与学习策略的探索动作, 保证了高效可靠的策略更新, 实现了无人机集群系统的高性能控制. 首先, 利用领航-跟随集群框架, 将无人机集群的控制问题转化为领航-跟随框架下的跟踪问题, 进而提出了基于模型的跟踪控制方法, 利用性能函数将集群编队误差约束在给定范围内, 实现了无人机集群的模型驱动控制. 接下来, 为了解决复杂工况下性能函数极易失效难题, 将深度强化学习方法和性能函数驱动方法结合, 提出了性能函数引导的深度强化学习控制方法, 利用性能函数的示范经验辅助训练强化学习网络, 通过同时评估探索与示范动作, 保证学习策略显著优于性能函数驱动控制方法, 有效提高了无人机编队控制精度与鲁棒性. 实验结果表明, 该方法能够显著提升无人机集群的控制精度, 实现了兼顾鲁棒性与飞行精度的高性能集群控制.
