COMBAT SIMULATION METHOD AND SYSTEM UTILIZING LASERS WITH WIRELESS ACTIVATION

摘要

A combat simulation system to be used with models of weapons platforms to simulate firing and target "hits", and to register the firing and the hits, including a remote control, operated by a user, for activating a source of coherent electromagnetic radiation, a target which may be substantially enfilade by the coherent electromagnetic radiation source, an electromagnetic radiation detector situated to receive reflected radiation from the target, and a transmitter for transmitting from the coherent electromagnetic radiation detector to a receiver. According to the present invention, a predator platform including both a coherent electromagnetic radiation source and a coherent electromagnetic radiation detector is maneuvered to a firing position where a target platform is within line of sight of the radiation source. The user activates the radiation source thereby emitting a radiation burst which is reflected from the target platform and picked up by the radiation detector.
