Abstract

The Army is making efforts to increase combat power by incorporating technologies related to the Fourth Industrial Revolution into the field of defense. In order to utilize these technologies, it is necessary to develop a military tactical communication system that enables transmission and reception of data between command and control system and weapon systems. Therefore, in this paper, we analyze the tactical communication systems of the other countries, derive the limitations of the tactical communication system currently operating in the military. And, a multi-layered integrated operation structure centered on satellites and plans to provide communication on the move to small units are reviewed. Then, we present the necessity of a large-capacity transmission speed by predicting the amount of data that will be generated from weapon systems of the future, and a plan to efficiently manage the network using intelligent network technology.

육군은 4차 산업혁명과 관련된 기술들을 국방분야에 접목시켜 전투력을 증대시키기 위한 노력을 하고 있다. 초지능, 초연결 기동화 부대 양성을 목표로 Army TIGER 4.0 체계 구축을 추진하고 있으며, 육군비전 2050에서는 인공지능 기반의 미래 지휘통제체계 및 감시정찰체계 운용 개념을 제시하였다. 이러한 기술들을 활용하기 위해서는 지휘통제체계 및 무기체계간 데이터를 유기적으로 송수신할 수 있도록 하는 군의 전술통신체계를 발전시켜나가야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 해외의 전술통신체계를 분석하고 현재 군에서 운용하고 있는 전술통신체계의 제한사항을 도출하여 우리 군의 미래 전술통신체계에 접목시킬 수 있는 요소들을 제시한다. 이를 토대로 위성 중심의 다계층 통합운용 구조 및 소규모 부대에 기동간통신을 제공하기 위한 방안들에 대해 살펴보고, 미래에 활용될 무기체계들로부터 발생될 데이터의 양을 예측하여 대용량 전송능력이 확보되어야 하는 필요성을 제시하며 지능형네트워크 기술을 활용하여 네트워크를 효율적으로 관리하는 방안을 제시하고자 한다.
