文摘How multi-unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)carrying a payload pass an obstacle-dense environment is practically important.Up to now,there have been few results on safe motion planning for the multi-UAVs cooperative transportation system(CTS)to pass through such an environment.The prob-lem is challenging because it is difficult to analyze and explicitly take into account the swing motion of the payload in planning.In this paper,a modeling method of virtual tube is proposed by fus-ing the advantages of the existing modeling algorithm for regu-lar virtual tube and the expansion environment method.The pro-posed method can not only generate a safe and smooth tube for UAVs,but also ensure the payload stays away from the dense obstacles.Simulation results show the effectiveness of the method and the safety of the planned tube.
