Abstract

NCW is a new operational concept for modern warfare to improve the ability to conduct combat by connecting command and control system via network. To realize NCW integrating information sharing system between multiple platforms, CDL is considered as a key component for high-speed transmission of ISR data. Accordingly, further studies to enhance the performance of CDL are being performed around the world, and our government has also developed self-reliant CDL, MPI-CDL. However, the maximum data rate and networking performance of current CDL still fall short of the objective to enable multiple systems to share the large ISR data. Therefore, in this paper, we analyze the development flow and international technical trends of CDL, and present an approach for enhancing data rate and networking capacity of the next generation CDL.

현대전의 전쟁 개념은 정보 통신 기술의 발전과 함께 지휘 통제 과정을 네트워크로 연계하여 전투 수행 능력을 향상시키는 네트워크 중심전 (NCW, Network Centric Warfare)으로 변화하고 있다. 이에 따라, 네트워크를 통한 정보의 우위를 점유하는 NCW의 구현에 있어, 감시 정찰 체계로부터 획득한 정보정찰감시 (ISR, Intelligence Surveillance Reconnaissance) 정보의 고속 전송을 위해 개발된 공용데이터링크 (CDL, Common Data Link) 기술이 핵심 요소로 고려되고 있다. 세계 각국에서는 CDL의 전송속도 및 네트워킹 기능을 향상시키기 위한 기술 개발에 주력하고 있으며, 우리 군도 자립적인 CDL 기술 개발의 필요성을 인식하고 MPI-CDL (Multi-Platform Image and Intelligence Common Data Link)을 개발하였다. 하지만 다수 체계 간 대용량 ISR 정보를 신속하게 수집 제공하기에는 최대 전송속도 및 네트워킹 기능 성능이 해외 장비 대비 미흡한 상황으로, 전체적인 성능을 향상시킨 차세대 CDL 개발이 필요한 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 차세대 한국형 CDL 개발을 위해, 현재까지의 CDL 개발 흐름과 해외 선행 장비의 기술 동향을 살펴보고, 향후 지향해야 할 차세대 CDL 개발 방향에 대해 제시한다.
