摘要
Owing to the current situations of terminal distribution such as poor traffic conditions and low network coverage in rural areas, and the characteristics of cluster distribution in rural settlements, cluster-based truck and drone routing problem is proposed. Considering the cooperative mode between truck and drone as well as multipackage distribution of drone, a mixed integer programming model is established to minimize the comprehensive distribution cost, and a two-stage hybrid ant colony algorithm is proposed to jointly optimize the truck route and drone route. In the first stage, an improved adaptive ant colony algorithm based on 2-opt local search strategy is designed to calculate the truck path. In the second stage, the nearest clustering mechanism and ant colony algorithm are used to calculate the drone path, and the integrated solution of the truck and drone paths is obtained by combining the two stages. Finally, the feasibility of the built model and the effectiveness of the designed algorithm are verified by numerical examples. The proposed approach also provides decision-making reference and basis regarding cost reduction and efficiency increase of terminal logistics distribution in rural areas. © 2023 Journal of Computer Engineering and Applications Beijing Co., Ltd.; Science Press.
