Overview of research on intelligent swarm munitions
This article started with an overview of the current technological status and engineering developments in the field of swarm munitions. It first introduced swarm behaviors and related swarm algorithms, and then provided a comprehensive summary of the research progress in the field of swarm munitions from four aspects: Collaborative perception and detection, collaborative positioning and navigation, task allocation for swarms, and path planning for swarms. In summary, future developments in collaborative perception, planning, positioning, navigation, and decision-making for swarm munitions will trend towards intelligence, adaptability, and collaboration. It can enable swarm munitions to be better adapted to complex and dynamic battlefields, improving operational effectiveness and mission capabilities.
