摘      要：As a cutting-edge branch of unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)technology,the cooperation of a group of UAVs has attracted increasing attention from both civil and military sectors,due to its remarkable merits in functionality and flexibility for accomplishing complex extensive tasks,e.g.,search and rescue,fire-fighting,reconnaissance,and *** path planning(CPP)is a key problem for a UAV group in executing tasks *** this paper,an attempt is made to perform a comprehensive review of the research on CPP for UAV ***,a generalized optimization framework of CPP problems is proposed from the viewpoint of three key elements,i.e.,task,UAV group,and environment,as a basis for a comprehensive classification of different types of CPP *** following the proposed framework,a taxonomy for the classification of existing CPP problems is proposed to describe different kinds of CPPs in a unified ***,a review and a statistical analysis are presented based on the taxonomy,emphasizing the coordinative elements in the existing CPP *** addition,a collection of challenging CPP problems are provided to highlight future research directions.
