Abstract

The concept of battlefield deception was developed using a hierarchical framework, a cognitively based decision model, and an act-react cycle to illustrate battlefield flow to help deception planners understand intentions and expected observables. Based on indentified gaps in the current doctrinal planning process, a PC-based battlefield activities analysis tool (BAAT) was designed.
