Imran Akram and Ahmed Pasha and Nabeel Iqbal}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {In this paper a real-time trajectory generation algorithm for computing 2-D optimal paths for autonomous aerial vehicles has been discussed. A dynamic programming approach is adopted to compute k-best paths by minimizing a cost function. Collision detection is implemented to detect intersection of the paths with obstacles. Our contribution is a novel approach to the problem of trajectory generation that is computationally efficient and offers considerable gain over existing techniques. }, journal = {International Journal of Computer and Information Engineering}, volume = {1}, number = {3}, year = {2007}, pages = {802 - 805}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/8158}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/3}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 3, 2007}, }
