Abstract

The relevance of the task of developing an architecture for organizing the interaction of onboard software systems of unmanned aerial vehicles in a group and with a control center under conditions of unstable information exchange in the absence of repeaters is substantiated. The composition of the distributed system "a group of unmanned aerial vehicles under the control of a control center" and the belonging of its elements to the hierarchy levels, as well as the target and communicative functions of the system elements are determined. Taking into account these features, the formulation and existing approaches to solving the designated problem are studied. Based on the results of the study, an architecture has been developed for organizing the interaction of on-board software systems of unmanned aerial vehicles in a group and with a control center, based on their representation in the form of nodes of a distributed hierarchical system of a dominant type, taking into account the target and communicative functions of these nodes at various levels of the system under consideration, the conditions and features of using a group of unmanned aerial vehicles in mountainous terrain, as well as reasonable requirements for organizing interaction, characterized in that it is a service-oriented architecture with a cluster partitioning of groups of unmanned aerial vehicles according to the implemented functionality and a peer-to-peer representation of the interaction of nodes within a cluster of reconnaissance unmanned aerial vehicles that are not leaders, which allows for the organization of stable interaction in conditions of unstable information exchange in the absence of repeaters.
