Modelling Team Adversarial Actions in UAV Operations

Abstract

The problems of modelling and control design for teams of adversarial forces in unmanned air vehicle (UAV) operations are discussed. A team is a group of cooperating entities which may evolve through different organizations, named configurations. To each configuration there corresponds a set of different properties for the entities in the team. The problem of configuration control is addressed by structuring the design in a hierarchical control structure where the properties of the system can be formally analyzed. The overall system is modelled in the framework of dynamic networks of hybrid automata. This is discussed in the context of the attack of a Blue force of unmanned air combat vehicles against a Red s ground force of SAM sites and radars.
