A hybrid parallel Harris hawks optimization algorithm for reusable launch vehicle reentry trajectory optimization with no-fly zones

Abstract

Reentry trajectory optimization is a critical optimal control problem for reusable launch vehicle (RLV) with highly nonlinear dynamic characteristics and complex constraints. In this paper, a hybrid parallel harris hawks optimization (HPHHO) algorithm is proposed to address the problem.HPHHO aims to enhance the performance of existing harris hawks optimization (HHO) algorithm by three strategies including oppositional learning, smoothing technique and parallel optimization mechanism. At the beginning of each iteration, the opposite population is calculated from the current population by the oppositional learning strategy. Following that, the individuals in the two populations are arranged in ascending order on the basis of the fitness function values, and the top half of the resulting population is selected as the initial population. The selected initial population is divided into two equal subpopulations which are assigned to the differential evolution and the HHO algorithm, respectively. The both algorithms operate in parallel to search and update the solutions of each subpopulation simultaneously. Then the solutions are smoothed for each iteration by the smoothing technique to reduce fluctuations. As a result, the optimal solution obtained by the parallel optimization mechanism avoids falling into local optima. The performance of HPHHO is evaluated by 4 CEC 2005 benchmark functions and 3 constrained continuous optimal control problems, showing better efficiency and robustness in terms of performance metrics, convergence rate and stability. Finally, the simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is very effective, practical and feasible in solving the RLV reentry trajectory optimization problem.

“…Specifcally, Harris Hawk Optimization (HHO) [37] is an evolutionary algorithm which simulates the hunting process of harris hawk. It has dealt with a wide variety of problems ranging from operational cost optimization, engineering design, to copyright protection and data authentication [38][39][40][41]. However, HHO always stuck in the local optimum due to the nonlinearity of DNN function.…”
