초록

전장의 환경이 네트워크 중심전으로 빠르게 변화함에 따라 신속하고 정확한 상황인식을 하기 위해 전술데이터 링크의 필요성이 부각되고 있다. 현재 한국군에서는 Link-16을 전투기에 탑재하여 공중 작전을 수행하고 있으며, Link-16은 멀티넷 구조를 지원함으로써 동시에 다양한 작전 수행이 가능한 장점이 있다. 주파수 자원의 부족으로 인해 다른 체계와 주파수를 공동사용 하는 방안이 연구되고 있으며 레이더가 사용하는 L-대역이 후보 대역 중 하나로 고려되고 있다. 하지만 우리나라의 L-대역은 군사용 장거리 탐지 레이더에 할당되어 있어 주파수를 공동사용하여 전술데이터링크를 운용할 경우 서로 간 간섭에 의한 영향을 받을 것으로 예상된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 L-대역 내에서 레이더와 Link-16과 같은 전술데이터링크가 공동사용 하는 경우 전술데이터링크의 운용 가능성을 평가하였다.

As the trend of future war has been changed to network centric warfare, tactical data link should be needed for fast and accurate situation awareness. Nowadays, Korean air force conducts military operations by using aircrafts equipped with Link-16. The Link-16 can conduct multiple mission at the same time because it supports multi-net capability. Due to lack of frequency resource, the way to share the frequency with other systems has been studied and using L band with radar is considered as one of the candidates bands. However, the data link can be affected by the interference from radars when it shares the L-band because the L-band in Korea is already assigned to long-range detection radars. In this paper, we evaluate operational possibilities of tactical data link in the L-band based on Link-16.
