Abstract
In Korean peninsular, Air Defense with SAM(Surface-to-Air Missile) is very important, because of threatening by North Korea's theater ballistic missiles installed with nuclear or biochemistry. Effective and successful defense operation largely depends on two factors, SAM's location and the number of SAM for each target based on missile's availability in each SAM's location. However, most previous papers have handled only the former. In this paper, we developed Multi-heuristic algorithm which can handle both factors simultaneously for solving allocation problem of the batteries and missile assignment problem in each battery. To solve allocation problem, genetic algorithm is used to decide location of the batteries. To solve missile assignment problem, a heuristic algorithm is applied to determine the number of SAM for each target. If the proposed model is applied to allocation of SAM, it will improve the effectiveness of missile defense operations.
