Evaluation of MAVUAV Collaborative Combat Capability Based on Network Structure

Abstract EN

The collaborative combat of manned/unmanned aerial vehicles (MAVs/UAVs) is a popular topic in combat application research.

It maximizes the autonomous combat capability of UAVs and the control capability of MAVs.

Furthermore, it improves the comprehensive combat effectiveness.

The quantitative description of intercommunication in different aircrafts along with the evaluation of the collaborative combat capability is an emphasis in military research.

This paper analyzes the collaborative combat process.

Node and edge models are established in the MAV/UAV collaborative network.

The intercommunication and combat behaviors among combat entities are analyzed.

Based on the information entropy, the effect of capability uncertainties on the collaborative combat is described quantitatively.

An evaluation method of the MAV/UAV collaborative combat capability is proposed.

Finally, an example is given to demonstrate the proposed model and evaluation method that prove its feasibility and effectiveness.
