Research on Path Planning for Mobile Robot Based on Improved Ant Colony Algorithm

摘要

Path planning of mobile robots is an important research content in mobile robot design. In view of the characteristics of classic ant colony algorithm, such as long distance, low efficiency and easy to fail into dead zone, a new pheromone updating algorithm and global/local pheromone distribution models are proposed. The grid method is used to construct two-dimensional plane space with obstacles and the simulation experiment is carried out. The simulation results show that under the improved algorithm, the robot path planning efficiency is high and the path distance is short, which verifies the validity of the model.
