Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio Systems (SINCGARS) Evaluation Model

Abstract

This report describes the development, validation, and utilization of a multi-attribute utility model and a probabilistic cost model for use by the SINCGARS Special Task Force (STF) in evaluating the military utility and cost of a series of alternative radio systems. These models were programmed to be interactive and were made available to the SINCGARS STF in order to permit additional analyses. A separate report was submitted to the SINCGARS STF on the development of these models. The major difference between that report and this report was the inclusion of appendices in the SINCGARS STF report providing more detailed information with respect to such factors as utility functions, importance weights, values of system parameters, and technical performance characteristics.
