| Abstract | This paper outlines an agent based approach for UAV (Unmanned Air Vehicles) mission route planning problem. In this context, mission route planning can be defined as finding the “best” set of waypoints for the UAV that will enhance its probability of success in its mission. Mission route planning may be carried out either in premission or in mission time. It may be done either by an onboard control system or by a ground mission planning system. Regardless of these considerations, a problem solving agent for UAV mission route planning problem is proposed in this research. Mission Route Planning Agent in UAV mission route planning context needs to perceive the elements in its environment and comprehend the meaning of this situation to compute a route. In other words, it will use target, threat, terrain and air space restrictions to compute the “best” route for that UAV mission. In a dynamic replanning environment, it will compute its new route again and again each time the situation has changed. To compute the “best” route, an A* based graph search algorithm is used. For a node, while real cost is computed using fuel and threat costs with determined weightings, heuristic cost is selected as the geometric distance. Network is constructed in the search time. Consecutive nodes are determined by spanning range and azimuth with determined increments. The values of weightings for fuel and threat costs and the increments used to construct the network have a great effect on the resulting route and the computation time. While common practice is to use default or user defined values for those, this paper presents a situation aware UAV Mission Route Planning Agent that uses the tactical situation to determine these values. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
