Flight path optimization with application to in-flight replanning to changing destinations
Flight path optimization with application to in-flight replanning to changing destinations is a scholarly work, published in 2018 in ''Aircraft Engineering and Aerospace Technology''. The main subjects of the publication include path, flight planning, grid, real-time computing, motion planning, computer science, air traffic control, missile guidance, simulation, range, flexibility, shortest path problem, trajectory, and engineering. The trajectory has to avoid obstacles and no-fly zones and must take into account the kinematic constraints of the air vehicle.Design/methodology/approachA discrete routing model is proposed that represents the airspace by a sophisticated network.
