Abstract

Recently, developments in the field of communication and network technologies induced new paradigm in the defense weapon system. As a consequence, military authorities develop the Tactical Information Communication Network(TICN) system to adapt to the changing paradigm. One of the most important functions of TICN is real-time communication. As a result, TICN system needs to receive real-time information from the battlefield, and the key technology to support these features is MANET(Mobile Ad-Hoc Network) routing protocol. In this paper, we analyze problems of the shortest path scheme in tactical Ad-Hoc networks, which is widely used in common Ad-Hoc networks. We propose efficient routing protocol for tactical MANET by considering the environment of small combat units, such as node position, speed and data size. The proposed algorithm shows reliable data transfer and low latency in battlefield.

최근 정보통신 산업 및 네트워크 분야의 기술발달로 국방 무기체계에 새로운 패러다임 변화가 형성되었고, 군에서도 이러한 전쟁양상에 변화에 맞추어 TICN(Tactical Information Communication Network)이라는 통신체계를 도입하여 구축 중에 있다. TICN체계가 그 기능을 갖추기 위해서는 전장의 소규모 전투로부터 신뢰성 있는 정보를 실시간으로 전송 받아야 하는데, 이러한 기능을 지원해 주는 기술의 핵심적인 요소가 바로 MANET(Mobile Ad-Hoc Network) 라우팅 프로토콜이다. 본 논문에서는 일반 MANET 라우팅 프로토콜에서 주로 사용되는 최단경로 설정 기법의 전술네트워크 적용에 따른 문제점을 식별하고, 소규모 전투부대의 전술환경을 바탕으로, 중계 노드들의 위치와 속도, 데이터 크기 등을 고려하여 경로의 신뢰성과 데이터 지연 시간을 계산함으로써, 신뢰성 있는 정보를 실시간으로 전송 받을 수 있는 효율적인 전술 MANET 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안해 보고자 한다.
