In order to solve the problem of path planning for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) in complex battlefield environment, an improved whale optimization algorithm (IWOA) is proposed in this paper. The algorithm is improved by adding adaptive weights. Then, the linear convergence factor of the algorithm i...
