A Novel Method of Modeling the Electromagnetic Spectrum Management System for the Fleet

A dynamic distributed ship electromagnetic spectrum management system model based on multi-agent system (MAS) was presented in this article. The proposed system model was comprised of five kinds of agent: data-collector agent, device-operator agent, analyze-expert agent, decision-maker agent and require/command agent. Through the cooperation of agents, the system could solve spectrum apportionment for the formation of ships automatically. A well-organized central-plan with hierarchical management architecture was implemented by grading the agents into flagship and the other ships' decision-maker agents groups. It satisfies the distributed and dynamic requirement of ship formation in combined operation.
