contents Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVS) are limited by the onboard energy. Refinement of the navigation strategy directly affects both the flight velocity and the trajectory based on the adjustment of key parameters in the UAVS pipeline, thus reducing energy consumption. However, existing techniques tend to adopt static and conservative strategies in dynamic scenarios, leading to inefficient energy reduction. Dynamically adjusting the navigation strategy requires overcoming the challenges including the task pipeline interdependencies, the environmental-strategy correlations, and the selecting parameters. To solve the aforementioned problems, this paper proposes a method to dynamically adjust the navigation strategy of the UAVS by analyzing its dynamic characteristics and the temporal characteristics of the autonomous navigation pipeline, thereby reducing UAVS energy consumption in response to environmental changes. We compare our method with the baseline through hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation and real-world experiments, showing our method 3.2X and 2.6X improvements in mission time, 2.4X and 1.6X improvements in energy, respectively.
