Abstract
A system implementing a proposed framework for using multiple-cooperating-drones in the deployment of a dynamic sensor network is completed and preliminary tests performed. The main components of the system are implemented using a genetic strategy to create the main elements of the framework. These elements are sensor network topology, a multi objective genetic algorithm for path planning, and a cooperative coevolving genetic strategy for solving the optimal cooperation problem between drones. The framework allows for mission re-planning with changes to drone fleet status and environmental changes as a part of making a fully autonomous system of drones.
