  • Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is recently become popular on the internet since we can download and transfer mass data through it. However, transferring data with distances over 100m often causes some troubles. When downloading mass data from moving vehicles such as cars, jeeps, tanks, etc., if the download process from the first AP (Access Point) is not completed then we have to re-start this process from the second AP (from 0%). Therefore, the question is how to maintain the data we have received from the first AP, and then continuously download remaining data from the next APs in a battlefield environment. In this paper, we propose an effective method for receiving mass data separately from the mobile receive nodes in a Delay Tolerant Network (DTN). We carried on an experiment and evaluation by simulation; these simulation results are provided to show the proposed information delivery scheme performance.

  • It is meaningful in that it can be used as valuable data in modern nursing by exploring the meaning and essence of the experiences experienced as women and nurses in the special situation of war to understand their experiences. To find the role of nurses in the war, the research was classified into primary data and secondary data. Among the many data, only those with high external and internal evaluations were selected and analyzed. However subjective opinions were not included. At a time when women's social advancement was difficult, the nurse faithfully fulfilled the role of a nurse on the battlefield, and as a result, it became a new channel for women's social advancement. Nurses performed various roles, such as nursing for soldiers wounded in the Korean War, as well as midwifery and health education for the general public. In this way, during the Korean War, both inside and outside the battlefield, nurses performed all the roles they could in their respective positions. Nursing activities on the battlefield have taken their true value in line with the characteristics of nursing education based on holistic nursing, integrated thinking, love for humanity, and dedication. Recently, disasters and war zones are increasing worldwide, and the number of nurses required in these fields is also increasing. Based on the research results of past nurses' activities, there is a need for interest and research on the new roles of nurses needed in the present and future society. In addition, while not forgetting the sacrifices of nurses in the past, this spirit must be continued and developed.

  • In future complex and diverse battlefield situations, the existing command system faces the challenge of delayed human judgement of strategy and low objectivity. This paper proposes an artificial intelligence model that takes situation information and course of action simulation results as input and automatically assigns scores to various evaluation elements and a comprehensive score. This tool is expected to assist the commander in making decisions, reduce the time required for making judgments, and promote impartial decision-making.

  • With the development of information and communication technology, the amount of information produced and shared in the battlefield and stored and managed in the system dramatically increased. This means that the amount of information which cansupport situational awareness and decision making of the commanders has increased, but on the other hand, it is also a factor that hinders rapid decision making by increasing the information overload on the commanders. To overcome this limitation, this study proposes a method to automatically search, select, and summarize documents that can help the commanders to understand the battlefield situation reports that he or she received. First, named entities are discovered from the battlefield situation report using a named entity recognition method. Second, the documents related to each named entity are discovered. Third, a language model and collaborative filtering are used to select the documents. At this time, the language model is used to calculate the similarity between the received report and the discovered documents, and collaborative filtering is used to reflect the commander's document reading history. Finally, sentences containing each named entity are selected from the documents and sorted. The experiment was carried out using academic papers since their characteristics are similar to military documents, and the validity of the proposed method was verified.

  • The core technologies of the 4th Industrial Revolution, such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, the cloud, big data, and mobile networks, are inspiring major changes and innovations in the defense sector worldwide. The United States, China, and Russia are pursuing defense research and development strategies that seek to maintain their leadership on the battlefield in the future through the overwhelming superiority of defense science technology. Defense science and technology concentrate on the development of challenging new disruptive technologies to efficiently respond to future battlefield environments, where the immediate process of determining the outcome of a war will lead to combat power. In this paper, we first look at the development strategies of the 4th Industrial Revolution in major countries and describe the latest trends in defense science and technology accordingly.

  • Tactical Information Communication Network(TICN) uses both a wireless and wired network. To support mobility in battlefield environments, the application of Ad-hoc networking technology to its wireless communication has been examined. However, Ad-hoc network is faced to many security threats due to its intrinsic characteristics. Therefore, to apply the Ad-hoc networking technology to battlefield environments and TICN, an intensive study on security countermeasure must go side by side with the development of enabling technology. In this paper, we suggest an efficient key management scheme for TICN of which the Ad-hoc networking technology is applied.

  • NCW(Network Centric Warfare) offers BSEs(Battelspace-Entities) the capabilities of sharing information through C4ISRCommand, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance) network and it also improves their combat powers based on information superiority with awareness of common situation in battlefield and self-synchronization. Although the concept of NCW was developed at the end of 1990 and there have been various studies for NCW from the development of its concept, the effort for measuring the synergistic effect of NCW is insufficient at the present time. Therefore, in this paper we reviewed literatures concerning the effectiveness measurement of NCW. The category of our survey is network effect, metrics, simulation, battlefield information, social network analysis and mathematical model. The main purpose of this study is to suggest future researchers a research direction by analyzing the aspects and limitations of existing studies about the quantitative measurement of NCW.

  • The Battlefield Management System(BMS) of Ground Fighting Vehicles has employed its own message format but there have been requirements of using the standard message format, KVMF. To meet these requirements, we analyzed BMS and KVMF and incorporated KVMF into BMS. In this paper, we would like to introduce our implementation of KVMF in BMS.

  • The basic mathematical tools are developed to determine the optimum emplacement of limited numbers of scatterable mines on the infantry battlefield. A deterministic model is developed for heterogeneous infantry battalion level battle using APL version 7.0. The Helmbold-type combat equation is applied to claculate comparative casulties, and range dependency is also considered to establish the correlation between attrition rate coefficients and the distance of opposing forces, Based on this deterministic model the effective range for employment of scatterable mines is determined. Because mines are primarily effective when employed in conjunction with direct fire weapons, it is inferred that minefield are best employed when used within the maximum effective range of infantry weapons systems such as the M16Al rifle. The model developed verifies this fact.
