Optimal Routing of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for Joint Goods Delivery and In-Situ Sensing

Bin Liu et al.

Summary: This paper introduces a new application of UAV for joint goods delivery and in-situ sensing, and proposes an algorithm that optimizes route and sensing task selection to minimize energy consumption, maximize sensing reward, and ensure timely goods delivery. The problem is challenging due to mixed integer programming. The key idea is to interpret UAV's waypoints as location-dependent tasks, and a new task-time graph is constructed to describe the process. Validated by a real-world case study, our approach outperforms alternatives by over 18% in task reward.
