This paper introduces the Heuristic Bidirectional Rapidly-exploring Random Tree (HB-RRT) algorithm, a 4D approach integrating three spatial dimensions and time, specifically designed for obstacle avoidance in dynamic settings. Unlike traditional RRT, RRT*, and PF-RRT, HB-RRT leverages heuristic sampling, greedy connections, and lightweight RRT* reconnection to enhance path quality and reduce computational effort, employing temporal sampling and collision prediction for safe navigation amidst moving obstacles. Simulations demonstrate HB-RRT’s superiority, reducing path length by 18% and computation time by over 90% compared to RRT, with collision-free paths validated in a UAV base station inspection scenario under dynamic conditions. Its adaptive strategy ensures enhanced responsiveness, making it suitable for dynamic environments.

摘要

This paper introduces the Heuristic Bidirectional Rapidly-exploring Random Tree (HB-RRT) algorithm, a 4D approach integrating three spatial dimensions and time, specifically designed for obstacle avoidance in dynamic settings. Unlike traditional RRT, RRT*, and PF-RRT, HB-RRT leverages heuristic sampling, greedy connections, and lightweight RRT* reconnection to enhance path quality and reduce computational effort, employing temporal sampling and collision prediction for safe navigation amidst moving obstacles. Simulations demonstrate HB-RRT’s superiority, reducing path length by 18% and computation time by over 90% compared to RRT, with collision-free paths validated in a UAV base station inspection scenario under dynamic conditions. Its adaptive strategy ensures enhanced responsiveness, making it suitable for dynamic environments.
