Virtual motion camouflage based phantom track generation through cooperative electronic combat air vehicles
Yunjun Xu, Gareth Basset · 2010
As an example of complex cooperative missions, coherent phantom track generation through controlling multiple electronic combat air vehicles is currently an area of great interest to the defense agency for the purpose of deceiving a radar network. However, it has been a challenge to design optimal coherent trajectories for this type of problems due to the high dimensionality and kinematic, dynamics, and geometric constraints. This paper describes how an interesting bio-inspired motion strategy can be used to design real-time trajectories for a (1) feasible constant speed coherent mission, (2) maximum-duration constant speed coherent mission, and (3) optimal trajectory mission for general cases.
