Analytical Models for Battlespace Information Operations (Bat-IO). Part 2

Abstract

Modern warfare uses information gathering resources ("sensors") and C4ISR capabilities to detect, acquire, and identify targets for attack ("shooters"). This report provides analytical state-space models that include the capabilities of the above functional elements in order to guide their appropriate balance; this includes attention to the effect of realistic errors, e.g., of target classification and battle damage assessment (BDA). Also, an analytic stochastic model that illustrates multiple attractor/steady states is presented.
