Definitions
- the present invention relates to a weapons composite system and a method for controlling a weapons composite system.
- Observation systems can be stationary or mobile, such as drones or KZOs (small aircraft targeting). They include an observer, such as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), and an observer control station that controls the observer. The observer may also perform the function of a target commander marking a target, for example by means of a laser designator.
- Effective systems are systems that have a military effect on a target. Examples of active systems are loiterable ammunition and end-phase-guided ammunition, but also armed manned or unmanned aerial vehicles.
- An action system includes a caster and an activity control station that controls the caster.
- Both the observing and acting systems have the ability to transmit data to, for example, their condition (self-position, self-location, sensor data, sub-data, and the like), as well as, where appropriate, target location data with systemic latency to a suitable receiving device a corresponding system can be monitored.
- Both the observational and the acting systems have a direct (for example radio) or indirect (for example by means of a laser designator) ability to influence with a given latency on their actions (such as in particular their navigation), so to lead.
- a last possible time for the termination of the use of an active system should be delayed as far as possible.
- the interference with the effect taking into account the latest situation information with the aim of avoiding collateral damage is in the foreground.
- the basis of the present invention is to create an instance that has both the decision-relevant information of the participating observation and active systems with minimal latency and also the instruction of an active system with minimum latency is feasible. This gives the operator the maximum decision time to manage the operation of an agent so that the likelihood of collateral damage can be reduced to the technically possible minimum.
- the present invention comprises a weapon composite system comprising at least one observation system with an observation system control station, at least one active system with an active system control station and a compound control system connected to the control stations of the observation and active systems.
- the compound control system comprises a computing unit and a display device, which are adapted to receive data from the Display control stations of the observation and action systems and display at least one input field for instructions to the control center of an active system.
- a compound system interface computer data from both an observation system and an active system can be simultaneously detected and evaluated by an operator.
- the operator thus has access to target information, such as electro-optical and / or infrared real-time images, sensor target information such as radar or acoustic intensity diagrams, position, behavior, signature or environment, of all systems involved.
- the composite control system is preferably set up to display a subset of the data that can be provided by the control stations of the observation and active systems on the display device. This corresponds to a filtering of the available data. Thus, not all available data is displayed, but in particular only the decision-relevant data, which simplifies the detection of the situation by the operator.
- the filtering of the data occurs in the data providing system prior to transmission to the compound control system, upon receipt in the compound control system or as a combination thereof.
- the compound control system is adapted to display input fields for a subset of the instructions executable by an active system control station on the display device. Thus, a reduced amount of instructions can be transmitted to the active system control station via the compound control system.
- the subset of the data and / or the instructions is determined on the basis of criteria stored in a database.
- the database includes a plurality of criteria records, wherein an appropriate criteria record is retrieved from the database and used to filter the data and / or available instructions.
- the subset of the data and / or instructions is determined on the basis of at least one of the type of an observation system, the type of an active system or the deployment scenario of the weapon composite system.
- a rule can be specified for the determination of the subset of the data and / or instructions.
- the abovementioned parameters are used to search for an associated criterion data record in the database.
- the compound control system has an interface for establishing a data connection to a guidance system, wherein the composite control system is adapted to display data from the guidance system on the display device.
- the guidance system which may be, for example, a fire control system, commands the use of the weapons composite system and, for example, gives clearance for the use of an active system.
- the compound control system indicates in particular on its display device whether the release has been issued or the application is to be terminated.
- an observation system has a work station container housing its control station and an active system has a work station container housing its control station.
- a workstation container which can also be mobile, contains at least one workstation for an operator of the corresponding observation or active system.
- the Verbundkontrolisystem two arithmetic units and two display devices, wherein in each of the two workstation an arithmetic unit and a display device are housed.
- the composite system interface computer is thus divided into two workplaces, which are arranged in the respective workstation containers of the observation and active systems involved.
- the compound control system is configured to display on the display device at least one input field for instructions to the control station of an observation system.
- an observation system can be at least partially controlled by the compound control system.
- input fields for a subset of the instructions executable by the observation system are displayed on the display device. The determination of the subset takes place in an advantageous manner as described above for the instructions for the active system.
- the compound control system is set up to display on the display device the latest possible time for canceling the use of an active system.
- the latest possible time is calculated from at least one of the latency of the communication of the compound control system with the knitter, the properties of the knitter and the application scenario of the knitter.
- the compound control system is adapted to display a Eingefeid an order to cancel the use of an active system. This allows an operator of the compound control system to directly command the use of the active system.
- the Verbundkontrolisystem is set up to display on the display device a map with the positions of the knitter, the observer and any goals and / or the situation situation.
- the compound control system when the compound control system is set up to perform a function, this means that the arithmetic unit of the compound control system is set up to perform the function or is arranged to instruct the performance of the function.
- the present invention further relates to a method for controlling a weapon composite system comprising at least one observation system with an observation system control station, at least one active system with an active system control station and a compound control system connected to the control stations of the observation and active systems, wherein the composite control system comprises a computing unit and a Display device, wherein on the display device data from the control stations of the observation and active systems and at least one input field for instructions to the control station of an active system are displayed.
- a subset of the data that can be provided by the monitoring stations of the monitoring and active systems is displayed on the display device.
- the subset of the data is determined, for example, based on criteria stored in a database.
- the subset of the data is determined on the basis of at least one of the type of an observation system, the type of an active system or the deployment scenario of the weapon composite system.
- the latest possible time for canceling the use of an active system is displayed on the display device.
- Figure 1 is a schematic representation of an inventive
- Figure 2 is an exemplary screen display on a
- FIG. 1 schematically shows the structure of a weapons composite system 1 which contains a composite control system 2, an observation system 3 and an active system 4.
- the composite control system 2 and thus the weapon composite system 1 is connected to a guide system 5.
- the weapon composite system 1 is used in a scenario to enlighten and combat at least one target, so to perform an operation.
- the observation system 3 consists of an observer 32, for example an unmanned mounting drone, and an observation system control station 31, between which a wireless, bi-directional data connection exists.
- the observation system control station 31 controls the observer 32. This sends sensor data and telemetry data to the observation system control station 31.
- the observation system serves to capture information about the target, that is, to clarify the goal.
- the active system 4 consists of a kneader 42, for example loiter-capable or end-phase-controlled ammunition, and an active-system control station 41, between which there is a wireless, bidirectional data connection.
- the control system control station 41 controls the kneader 42, which is also referred to as active agent, in particular with regard to the navigation and the triggering of the effect.
- the knitter 42 sends sensor data and telemetry data to the active system control station 41.
- the action system serves to combat the target.
- the observer 32 and the creater 42 are also referred to as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
- the Verbundkontroilsystem consists of a computing unit 21, which is connected to a display device 22, such as a monitor or a projector, and three interfaces 23, 24 and 25.
- the interfaces 23 to 25 may be separate interfaces or a common interface.
- the composite control system 2 is connected to the control station 31 of the observation system 3.
- the composite control system 2 is connected to the control station 41 of the active system 4.
- the composite control system 2 is connected to the guide system 5, for example a fire control system.
- the guide system 5 is part of the weapon composite system 1.
- the composite control system 2 transmits data on the situation of the scenario to the guidance system 5 and receives commands and information from the guidance system 5, ie is guided by the guidance system 5.
- the arithmetic unit 21 includes, among other things, a processor, a graphics adapter, an input device, a main memory and a mass memory.
- the processor processes and outputs data, such as through interfaces 23 through 25 or the graphics adapter.
- the graphics adapter calculates an image for display on the display device 22.
- the input device for example a mouse, a keyboard or a touch-sensitive surface of the display device 22, serves for the input of data.
- the main memory contains the program code to be processed by the processor and stores the data to be processed and processed.
- the mass storage is used to store larger amounts of data and the program code permanently
- the arithmetic unit 21 receives and transmits data via the interfaces 23 to 25, processes the received data and displays the processed data on the display device 22. Since the control stations 31 and 41 of the observation system 3 and the active system 4 have a plurality of data, however, not all of which are relevant to the operator of the compound control system 2, only a subset of the available data is displayed on the display device 22. The filtering of the available data on the subset of the data takes place either in the compound control system 2 or in the respective control station 31 or 41, in that the compound control system 2 only selectively retrieves data from the respective control station 31 or 41 or notifies the respective control station 31 or 41 which Subset of the data are in particular regularly transferred to the compound control system.
- the subset of data is defined by filter criteria, which in turn depend on one or more parameters. Examples of these parameters are the type of observation system 3, the type of the active system 4, the type of target and the scenario.
- filter criteria are the type of observation system 3, the type of the active system 4, the type of target and the scenario.
- a database with filter criteria records deposited which is searched on the basis of the parameters for a suitable record with filter criteria.
- a record also includes a scheme for arranging the subset of the data on the display device 22.
- the operator of the compound control system may enter or change the filter criteria via the input device.
- the observer 32 and the creater 42 are interconnected via a bidirectional wireless data link. This connection can also be made via a relay.
- sensor data of the observer 32 are shown, for example, an infrared or electro-optical video image, which is preferably enriched with further information, for example on the target.
- sensor data of the warper 42 are displayed, for example an infrared or electro-optical video image, which is preferably enriched with further information, for example about the destination.
- field F02 data on the status and / or the mission of the observer 32, such as the position, the direction of flight, the airspeed and the fuel remaining amount, are displayed.
- data about the status and / or the mission of the warper 42 such as the position, the flight direction, the airspeed and the fuel remaining amount, are displayed.
- the remaining time is displayed in the field F06, during which the use of the warper 42 can be canceled.
- Field F03 displays a table or list of the status of one or more destinations, for example, for n destinations.
- the status of the target is, for example, the speed, the direction of movement or the Condition of the target.
- field F07 a table or list is displayed with the status of one or more active agents, for example for m effectors.
- Field F04 is divided into three subfields, each representing release by one of three instances.
- the field F09 is an input field through which the operator of the compound control system 2 can command or cancel the attack by the operator 42. Depending on the status of the warper 42, the field is deposited in different colors. If the attack is possible, but not yet commanded, the field F09 is deposited with a first color, for example green. An actuation of the field F09 in this state initiates the attack, ie the use of the razor 42. If the attack is ordered, but can still be canceled, the field F09 with a second color, such as red, deposited. Actuation of the field F09 in this state aborts the attack by the caster 42. If the attack is ordered and can no longer be aborted, the field F09 is deposited with a third color, for example black. Actuating field F09 in this state has no effect.
- the composite control system 2 on the display device 22 is preferably a selection field, via which the type of termination of the attack can be selected.
- the available types of demolition are shown, for example, return of the razor 42, self-destruction of the razor 42, rerouting of the razor 42 to an uncritical target area or intercepting flight.
- the operator of the compound control system 2 has all decision essentials information and data with the smallest possible latency, since data of both an observation system and an active system are displayed on the same display device. Since the operator can also influence the action system, for example commanding or canceling the attack, guidance also takes place with the lowest possible latency. Thus, the time until which an operation can be effectively canceled, as far as possible delayed.
