Detecting and segmenting diffuse targets in laser ranging data is a critical problem for tactical reconnaissance. In this study, we propose a new method that facilitates the characterization of diffuse irregularly shaped objects using "spin images," i.e., local 2D histograms of laser returns oriented in 3D space, and a clustering process. The proposed "cluster-based spin imaging" method resolves the problem of using standard spin images for diffuse targets and it eliminates much of the computational complexity that characterizes the production of conventional spin images. The direct processing of pre-segmented laser points, including internal points that penetrate through a diffuse object's topmost surfaces, avoids some of the requirements of the approach used at present for spin image generation, while it also greatly reduces the high computational time overheads incurred by searches to find correlated images. We employed 3D airborne range data over forested terrain to demonstrate the effectiveness of this method in discriminating the different geometric structures of individual tree clusters. Our experiments showed that cluster-based spin images have the potential to separate classes in terms of different ages and portions of tree crowns.

Currently, the Underwater Sensor Networks (UWSNs) is mainly an interesting area due to its ability to provide a technology to gather many valuable data from underwater environment such as tsunami monitoring sensor, military tactical application, environmental monitoring and many more. However, UWSNs is suffering from limited energy, high packet loss and the use of acoustic communication. In UWSNs most of the energy consumption is used during the forwarding of packet data from the source to the destination. Therefore, many researchers are eager to design energy efficient routing protocol to minimize energy consumption in UWSNs. As the opportunistic routing (OR) is the most promising method to be used in UWSNs, this paper focuses on the existing proposed energy efficient OR protocol in UWSNs. This paper reviews the existing proposed energy efficient OR protocol, classifying them into 3 categories namely sender-side-based, receiver-side-based and hybrid. Furthermore each of the protocols is reviewed in detail, and its advantages and disadvantages are discussed. Finally, we discuss potential future work research directions in UWSNs, especially for energy efficient OR protocol design.

The Republic of Korea Army is using R-NAD of MIL-STD-188-220 as a Media Access Control protocol. Under urgent situations, almost all stations transmit data frames and then the network will reach a saturation state. Several articles have been devoted to the study of R-NAD performance. However, most of them focus on comparing the performance of some NADs using network simulation tools. We propose an analytical model to compute the throughput of R-NAD under the assumption of a network traffic saturation. Analytical results were verified by Monte Carlo methods. We have shown that the performance of a success probability and an average idle time remains almost unchanged as the total number of stations increases. We have also shown that Type 1/2/4 operation mode outperforms Type 3 operation mode in throughput. The results showed that the system with a squelch detection achieved a better performance than the one without it. The longer DATA time had a higher throughput.

Development of high technology especially in telecommunication and precise weapon systems will impact the future battle field environment. So it is not difficult to anticipate the environment of military command and control system will be changed rapidly. Considering these future battle field environment, military needs automated C4I (Command, Control, Communication, Computer and Intelligence) system, namely real time decision support system which is combined high technologies. Most of advanced countries have been studied and developed these kinds of systems and already applied these systems in real military operations. In order to take a military initiative in Korea peninsula it is essential to catch up with this trend and procure C4I system. The purpose of this research is to present the method and the direction of optimal C4I system development model. First we survey the related theory about C4I systems. Second we present the conceptual framework for C4I system concept development. Third we model the system using Timed Petri-Net and perform simulation. Finally we analyze the through-put time and suggest alternatives. If we model using the real organization structure, operational tasks and various situations then optimal C4I system would be developed.

To develop a high-resolution electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) payload to be mounted on a high-speed and performance fighter aircraft in an external POD for acquiring daytime and nighttime image information on tactical targets, simulations, including flight environments and maneuvers, should be performed. Such simulations are pertinent to predicting the performance of several variables, such as aerodynamic force and inertia load acting on the payload. This paper describes the development of a flight data acquisition and analysis system based on flight simulation software (SW) for mission simulation of super-maneuverability fighter equipped with EO/IR payload. The effectiveness of the system is verified through comparison with actual flight data. The proposed flight data acquisition and analysis system based on FlightGear can be used as an M&S tool for system performance analysis in the development of the EO/IR payload.

With the rapid evolution of communication technology, it became possible to overcome the spatial and temporal limitations faced by humans to some extent. Furthermore, the quality of personal life was revolutionized with the emergence of the personal communication device commonly known as the smart phone. In terms of defense networks, however, due to restrictions from the military and security perspectives, the use of smart phones has been prohibited and controlled in the army; thus, they are not being used for any defense strategy purposes as yet. Despite the current consideration of smart phones for military communication, due to the difficulties of network configuration and the high cost of the necessary communication devices, the main tools of communication between soldiers are limited to the use of flag, voice or hand signals, which are all very primitive. Although these primitive tools can be very effective in certain cases, they cannot overcome temporal and spatial limitations. Likewise, depending on the level of the communication skills of each individual, communication efficiency can vary significantly. As the term of military service continues to be shortened, however, types of communication of varying efficiency depending on the levels of skills of each individual newly added to the military is not desirable at all. To address this problem, it is essential to prepare an intuitive network configuration that facilitates use by soldiers in a short period of time by easily configuring the strategy network at a low cost while maintaining its security. Therefore, in this article, the author proposes a Zigbee-based local strategic network by using Opnet and performs a simulation accordingly.

미래전을 대비하는 군의 통신환경은 상용 통신환경에 대비 매우 열악하나 높은 요구사항을 갖고 있다. MANET은 기존의 인프라구조 없이 쉽게 배치가 가능하고 제한적인 환경에서 다이나믹한 토폴로지를 지원하기 때문에 미래 군사 네트워크 활용에 큰 장점을 갖고 있다. 하지만, MANET에서의 가장 큰 이슈는 노드들의 빈번한 이동에 따른 다이나믹한 경로설정과 그로 인한 간헐적인 링크단절로 인한 자료전송의 어려움이다. CCN은 기존의 IP 중심의 네트워크 구조가 갖는 여러 가지 문제점을 해결할 수 있다는 점에서 미래 인터넷기술로 각광을 받고 있다. 이에 본 논문은 군 MANET과 요구사항에 부합하는 미래 군 통신아키텍처를 CCN을 활용하여 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 노드 수 증가 및 이동성 증가 측면에서 기존의 기법보다 제어 메시지 오버헤드가 낮고 콘텐츠 다운로드속도가 빠르다.

본 논문에서는 Mobile WiMAX 기반 군전술정보통신네트워크 (TICN)의 성능을 시스템 레벨에서 평가한다. 전시에 정지상태의 기지국 (BS: Base Station)들이 불규칙적으로 분포되어 있는 환경에서 이동 기지국 (BS-OTM)이 투입되었을 때 인접 기지국 및 가입자 (SS: Subscriber Station)가 받는 영향을 분석한다. 이동기지국이 추가적으로 사용되었을 때 서비스를 제공하는 기지국이 변함없는 가입자 관점에서는 간섭이 증가하여 CINR(Carrier To Interference and Noise Ratio)이 감소하고 이동 기지국에 의해 가입자가 두 기지국으로 분산되어 다중사용자 다이버시티가 감소하는 단점이 있음을 밝힌다. 그러나 통신 환경이 열악했던 가입자 주변에서 이동 기지국이 작동하게 되어 새롭게 서비스 받게 되는 가입자들은 큰 CINR 이득을 얻게 되며, 셀 전체적인 수율관점에서는 이동기지국에 의해 성능이 크게 향상된다. 또한, 반송파주파수, 이동기지국의 이동속도 및 위치에 따른 성능을 평가한다.

미래전은 Sensor-to-Shooter 개념에 기반한 네트워크 중심전(NCW : Network Centric Warfare) 양상을 지닌다. 이러한 NCW의 핵심적인 요소들 중 하나로 무선 비디오 센서 네트워킹 기술이 군 감시정찰용으로 활발히 적용되고 있다. 감시정찰 센서 네트워크에서는 침입탐지 및 추적정보의 신뢰성 향상을 위하여 이미지 센서가 결합된 복합 센서가 사용되고 있으나 대용량의 네트워크 자원 및 에너지 소비를 요구하는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 자원 예약을 통한 이미지 데이터 전송 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 네트워크 자원가용성을 고려하여 이미지 데이터 해상도 및 압축률 조정을 시도하는 동시에 다중 인터페이스의 적절한 선택을 통하여 안정적인 이미지 데이터 전송을 가능토록 한다. NS-3 시뮬레이션 기반의 성능분석을 통해서 제안기법의 전송 안정성 및 에너지 효율성의 증가를 확인하였다.
