Research on beyond visual range target allocation and multi-aircraft collaborative decision-making

The key technologies for beyond visual range target allocation and multi-aircraft cooperative air combat based on the background of unmanned aerial vehicles air combat are detailed description in this paper. beyond visual range target allocation and cooperative air combat are the main forms of modern air combat, there are some key techniques to be studied in the process of the air combat, such as the target recognition and allocation, multi-aircraft communication and information resource sharing, tactical decision -making and the fire control computation tactical decision-making. Multi-aircraft collaborative decision-making is one of the important parts to realize unmanned aerial vehicles air combat of the one-to-many, many-to-many in the beyond visual range air combat, the methods of multi-aircraft collaborative decision-making mainly include artificial intelligence (expert systems, artificial neural networks and fuzzy combat air system), optimization theory (graph theory, multi-target decision making, genetic algorithm and ant colony algorithm), information theory (for example rough set) and so on. These algorithms are able to realize the reasonable allocation of the battlefield and to obtain the maximum benefit at minimum cost.
