Abstract

To this end, the ROK military is developing a Korean Tactical Data Link (Link-K) in two stages: Basic and Completion types. Currently, the basic type of the Link-K has a limitations for supporting Mission Group(MG)s, such as to share unnecessary information and inefficient routing, because all RICCs simply broadcasts the same information in the basic type of the Link-K. In this paper, we propose a Zone-based Wireless Link-K network structure and a routing algorithm. To improve the effectiveness of the proposed routing algorithm, we have studied a filtering method that adjusts the message data according to the priority of the message and a method of controlling the load of the network. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme, it is proved that it is effective to support the mission task group compared with the existing wireless Link-K routing algorithm according to the operational scenario situation.

한국군은 현재 한국형 전술데이터링크(Link-K)를 2단계(기본형과 완성형)에 걸쳐 개발 하고 있다. 현재 Link-K 기본형에서는 모든 RICC들이 단순하게 같은 정보를 브로드캐스팅하기 때문에 불필요한 정보 공유와 비효율적인 라우팅과 같이 작전임무그룹을 지원하는데 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 작전임무그룹을 지원하기 위한 Zone 기반의 무선 Link-K 네트워크 구조와 라우팅 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 또한, 제안하는 라우팅 알고리즘의 효과를 증대시키기 위한 방안으로, 우선순위에 따라 메시지의 데이터를 조절하는 필터링 기법과 네트워크의 부하를 조절하는 기법을 연구하였다. 제안하는 기법의 성능을 평가하기 위하여, 작전 시나리오상황에 맞추어 기존 무선 Link-K 라우팅 알고리즘과 비교하여 작전임무그룹을 지원하는데 효과적임을 입증하였다.
