Optimization of the Algorithm for the Placement of Reference Points in the Positional Local Navigation System

In this paper, the authors are tasked with selecting the settings of the algorithm for the placement of reference points based on a genetic algorithm (GA), the goal is to create a program: a meta-genetic algorithm (MGA), which automatically selects the input parameters of GA. The algorithm itself is designed to minimize the number of reference points (RP) the local navigation system (LNS) inside the working premises. The criterion for the correctness of the GA operation will be the Geomerty Dilution of Precision (GDOP). The effectiveness of the use of MGA is estimated by comparing with the KG obtained during the operation of the GA with and without input parameter settings under the same initial conditions. The conclusion is made about the applicability of the proposed algorithm for solving the problem and creating an automatic program for the process of setting GA parameters in order to reduce the design time.
