In order to speed up logistics distribution efficiency and reduce distribution costs, logistics companies around the world began to use drones for related distribution work. In addition to upgrading the hardware technology of UAV, optimizing the distribution path is also one of the ways to reduce the distribution cost of UAV distribution center. In this paper, the location of UAV distribution center will be studied theoretically based on the economic optimization and equipment maintenance optimization. Finally, the feasibility of the algorithm is verified by simple simulation application.
