Cooperative Detection-Oriented Formation Design and Optimization of USV Swarms via an Improved Genetic Algorithm

Efficient and adaptive formation planning is critical for unmanned surface vehicle (USV) swarms equipped with sensor networks and smart sensors to perform cooperative detection tasks in complex marine environments. Existing formation optimization methods often overlook the nonlinear coupling between...
