提出一种兼顾几何精度与距离约束的连续空间路径图生成方法

Continuous-Space Roadmap Generation for Mobile Robot Fleets with Distance Constraints and Geometry-Aware Discretization

  • 在自由空间凸角点和交互点布设节点,结合局部网格扩展离散化
  • 满足机器人尺寸要求的节点间距与边距约束,路径长度接近最优(1.03-1.05)
  • 适合大规模移动机器人集群在仓储场景中高效、无冲突调度

移动机器人集群的高效路径规划需要具备高冗余性、短路径长度及充足节点与边间隙以实现无冲突运行。现有基于网格的方法牺牲几何保真度并施加曼哈顿距离路径长度约束,而现有连续空间方法忽略最小间距约束和运输需求。本文提出一种连续空间路径图生成方法:将节点放置于自由空间的凸角点与站点交互点,通过局部网格扩展进行空间离散化,根据机器人尺寸强制实施节点间及节点-边的最小距离约束,并采用运输需求驱动的K最短路径剪枝。在三个仓库环境中,使用两种多智能体取送货(MAPD)求解器对三种基线(反应-扩散采样法GSRM、8连通网格、随机采样)进行评估。在优先继承回溯(PIBT)策略下,该方法在最大车队规模时相比GSRM提升1.2%-23.4%,优于网格至少9.1%,优于随机采样超10.4%;时空A*求解器验证了结果。路径长度归一化值达1.03-1.05,接近最优,且站点间连通性最高,地图复杂度相当。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Efficient routing of mobile robot fleets requires roadmaps with high redundancy, short path lengths, and sufficient node and edge clearance for conflict-free operation. Existing grid-based methods sacrifice geometric fidelity and impose Manhattan-distance path length constraints, whereas existing continuous-space methods neglect minimum distance constraints and transport demand. This paper proposes a continuous-space roadmap generation method that addresses this gap by placing nodes at convex corner points of the free space and at station interaction points, discretizing free space via local grid expansion, enforcing minimum inter-node and node-edge distance constraints derived from robot dimensions, and applying transport demand-driven K-shortest path pruning. The method is evaluated across three intralogistics environments using two multi-agent pickup and delivery (MAPD) solvers against three baselines: a reaction-diffusion sampling method (GSRM), an 8-connected grid, and random sampling. Under Priority Inheritance with Backtracking (PIBT), the proposed method outperforms GSRM by 1.2-23.4 % at maximum fleet size, the grid by at least 9.1 %, and random sampling by more than 10.4 % across all environments, with a space-time A* solver confirming these results. It further attains near-optimal normalized path lengths of 1.03-1.05 and the highest inter-station connectivity at comparable roadmap complexity.
