Simulation Development for Dynamic Situation Awareness and Prediction II
Abstract
The objective of this effort was to create a closed-loop simulation environment in which detailed mission plans can be developed, used as input to a set of distributed simulations, and be executed within the simulation environment. These simulations provide feedback to prototype C4ISR systems in the form of mission status reports, sensor tracks, and other ISR mission results reports, which can be used to maintain situation awareness and to dynamically adjust mission plans in response to events. This work was carried out within the context of the Joint Synthetic Battlespace for Research and Development (JSB-RD), a distributed C4ISR modeling and simulation environment at the AFRL Rome Research Site. The JSB-RD distributed simulation environment includes Joint Semi-Automated Forces (JSAF) simulation, a weather federate, a dynamic terrain federate, a culture/clutter simulation, a visualization architecture for controlling the simulation/mission and the GIESim communication simulation which provides Link-16 network modeling. The environment also includes tools for creating scenarios from existing Air Battle Plans, extracted from the Air Operations Data Base (AODB) within the Theater Battle Management Core System (TBMCS), as well as gateways for connecting simulations communicating using DMSO s HLA and/or the earlier DIS protocol, with C4ISR systems.
