Multi mobile robot path planning based on genetic algorithm

Abstract

Genetic Algorithm has implicit parallelism and global optimization, however its computation speed constrains its on-line application. This paper attempts to apply improved genetic algorithm to multi mobile robot path planning. By using based-knowledge genetic operators, the performance of genetic algorithm is improved greatly. Simulation results showed that the improved genetic algorithm can satisfy real-time demand. In the future, it is used on-line to replan the multi mobile robot path.
