TY - THES A1 - Fliegauf, Katharina T1 - Assessment of swarm algorithms for a collision free path planning of a multi UAV scenario N2 - A prerequisite for the application of unmanned air vehicles is the flight path planning. This thesis investigates the applicability and usability of swarm algorithms. On the basis of defined Use Cases and requirements, the Ant Colony Optimization algorithm is implemented and adapted. Evaluation criteria are proposed to serve as basis for the evaluation of swarm algorithms. An exemplary evaluation is performed with the Ant Colony Optimization algorithm which shows weaknesses in the convergence to the solution in large search spaces and partly does not find the optimal solution. For a satisfying application of the Ant Colony Optimization algorithm with regards to the Use Cases and requirements a modification of the algorithm is crucial.
