Abstract
In order to improve the patrol efficiency of border patrol drones, based on unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) border patrol missions in multiple complex environments, this article proposes a whale algorithm based on chaos theory to plan patrol missions for multiple drones. First, according to the terrain the corresponding environmental model is established for the topography and then solved in layers to obtain the number of drones and other information that each base needs to send to the patrol area. Further, the use of drones with cameras and other detection equipment to patrol the scene information and images extract and transfer to the terminal in real time, and further detect suspicious persons and vehicles on the screen. The final simulation results show that the proposed scheme can be effectively applied to the planning of multi-UAV coordinated missions for border patrol.
