Autonomous navigation and target search for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have extensive application potential in search and rescue, surveillance, and environmental monitoring. Reinforcement learning (RL) has demonstrated excellent performance in real-time UAV navigation through dynamic optimization of decision-making strategies, but its application in large-scale environments for target search and obstacle avoidance is still limited by slow convergence and low computational efficiency. To address this issue, a hybrid framework combining RL and artificial potential field (APF) is proposed to improve the target search algorithm. Firstly, a task scenario and training environment for UAV target search are constructed. Secondly, RL is integrated with APF to form a framework that combines global and local strategies. Thirdly, the hybrid framework is compared with standalone RL algorithms through training and analysis of their performance differences. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method significantly outperforms standalone RL algorithms in terms of target search efficiency and obstacle avoidance performance. Specifically, the SAC-APF hybrid framework achieves a 161% improvement in success rate compared to the baseline SAC model, increasing from 0.282 to 0.736 in obstacle scenarios.

This paper has designed a four-channel wide dynamic microwave rectifier circuit for the shortcomings of uneven output voltage of each branch of the multi-channel rectification technology. A voltage-doubling rectifier circuit with identical structure was used in each branch. The four rectifier branches shared the same load at the output terminal, allowing the rectifier circuit to have an RF-DC conversion efficiency greater than 50% over the input power range from 12mW to 274mW, widened by 274% compared to a single channel. Not only the advantages of multi-channel technology with wide dynamics were retained, but also the output voltage was highly consistent and could be directly output in parallel without complex power electronics conversion.
