Decentralized Weapon Target Assignment Against High-Speed Enemy Missiles

A Novel Heterogeneous Sensor-Weapon-Target Cooperative Assignment for Ground-to-Air Defense by Efficient Evolutionary Approaches

“…In the missile defense scenario, the multi-layered defense system is considered the most suitable air defense system for large-scale incoming missiles [22]. Taking the National Missile Defense (NMD) as an example, it conducts early warning and classification of incoming missiles based on the spacebased infrared system (SBIRS) and upgraded early warning radar (UEWR).…”

“…A complement coding method based on the greedy strategy is presented to obtain the optimal fitness of type II coding solution. The calculation steps of greedy fitness are: 1) Based on the type II coding solution, generate weapon complement code for each platform by maximizing damage return; 2) Convert the completed type II codes into the 0-1 sparse decision matrix X III and Y III , which are the decision variables X and Y in Equation 22; 3) Calculate solution fitness by Equation (22).…”

“…end if 13: end for 14: Calculate the fitness J(P, Q, A, X III , Y III , t) of solution {X, Y } by Equation (22). plane coordinates.…”

“…Summers et al [21] formulated a dynamic WTA model of theater ballistic missile defense (TBMD) problem, and utilized an approximate dynamic programming (ADP) approach to solve it. Kim et al [22] established the time-dependent SWTA model for high-speed enemy missile and presented the decentralized decision making algorithm. Hocaoglu [23] formulated the allocating the air defense missiles to incoming air targets of land-based air defense systems.…”
