Abstract：This paper proposes the Parallel Multi-UAV framework as a solution to the upcoming challenges of control and management on multi-UAV systems. This paper incorporates the ACP theory into multi-UAV systems and proposes the Parallel Multi-UAV concept and its digital quadruplet structure. Afterwards, we suggest its basic framework and working logic. Meanwhile, related technologies are also discussed, including parallel sensing, parallel learning, parallel network and parallel block-chain. Finally, we present some perspectives on the stages and applications of the proposed framework in future battlefields.
