Detection of hostile aircraft behaviors using dynamic Bayesian networks

摘要

Aircraft Combat Survivability in military air operations is concerned with survival of the own aircraft. This entails analysis of information, detection and estimation of threats, and the implementation of actions to counteract detected threats. Beyond visual range weapons can today be fired from one hundred kilometers away, making them difficult to detect and track. One approach for providing early warnings of such threats is to analyze the kinematic behavior of enemy aircraft in order to detect situations that may point to malicious intent. In this paper we investigate the use of dynamic Bayesian networks for detecting hostile aircraft behaviors.
