Abstract

For charging problem in Automatic Guided Vehicle(AGV) scheduling in automated container terminals, a mixed integer optimization model is constructed considering the shallow charging and shallow discharging charging strategy. The model aims to minimize the final completion time of the AGV. Under the constraints of considering the change of AGV battery power and the difference in power consumption in different states of the AGV, the model uses the AGV idle time and the end time of a work cycle to make up power, reducing the number of AGV charging times, and thus reducing the total completion time. The model is solved by Wolf-PHC reinforcement learning, and the results are compared with GAMS solver, Q-learning algorithm and Genetic Algorithm (GA) respectively to verify the effectiveness of the model and superiority of the algorithm. The example analysis shows that AGV utilization efficiency is higher under the shallow charging and shallow discharging charging strategy, and the combination of Wolf-PHC and GA is better for the model solution.
