The wake-homing underwater guided weapon that detects and tracks wake generated during voyage of a surface ship is impossible to avoid with the present acoustic deception torpedo defense system. Therefore, research on bubble-generating wake decoy is necessary to deceive wake-homing underwater guided weapon. Experiments in various environments are required to verify the effective operation method and performance of the wake decoy, but performance verification through underwater experiment is limited. In this paper, we develop a simulator for an torpedo defense system of surface ship, which is applied bubble-generating wake decoy, against acoustic, wake, and hybrid homing underwater guided weapon attack. The simulator includes surface ship model, acoustic decoy(static, mobile) model, bubble-generating wake decoy model, search and motion model of underwater guided weapon and so on. By integrating various models, MATLAB GUI simulator was developed. Through the simulation results for various environmental variables by this simulator, it is judged that effective operation method and performance verification of the bubble-generating wake decoy can be performed.

The risk management is a method to identify and to handle risk factors. In this paper, we introduce a methodology that can be used to measure of system's performance risk by combining system's TPM(technical performance measures) in the R&D(research and development) program for defense acquisition. By applying the suggested procedure, we can monitor risk trends in R&D program by calculation of system's overall TPM and find out where management should target to reduce or remove the system's performance risk.

The defense industry plays a larger role than merely maintaining national security; it also has ripple effects in society, such as employment growth through increased domestic demand and advancement of industrial structures. In this study, the factors affecting the defense industry were divided into military support and government support. Previous research dealing with the correlation of management of the defense industry and each of these important factors was then investigated and analyzed. These results are believed to contribute to growth of the defense industry through building an environment that positively affects the defense industry's growth, profitability and productivity, and achieves higher business performance.

We present the results of performance test and analysis of a laser radar system prototype for mapping applications. The laser radar system consisting of fiber laser and avalanche photo-detector and other related component modules was designed and manufactured. The laser radar system now has the status of a prototype for the testing of laboratory performance. Main performance parameters of the system such as laser source characteristics, range accuracy, extinction ratio, and false alarm rate were experimentally measured and the results were analyzed. It confirmed that the laser radar system prototype is performing at a proper level.

There is a description that you cannot manage what you do not measure. The Korea Ministry of National Defense (MND) is conducting evaluations in various fields to obtain meaningful effects from IT investments, and views that the evaluation of the defense informatization sector is divided into defense informatization policy evaluation and defense informatization project evaluation. The defense informatization level evaluation can measure the informatization level of MND and the armed forces or organizations. Since the evaluation system being studied to measure the level of defense informatization is composed mainly of qualitative metrics, it is necessary to reconstruct it based on quantitative metrics that can guarantee objectivity. In addition, for managing the level of change by evaluation objects, the evaluation system should be designed with a focus on homeostasis of metrics so that it can be measured periodically. Moreover, metrics need to be promoted in terms of performance against targets. To this end, this study proposes to measure the level of defense informatization by dividing it into defense information network, computer systems, interoperability and standardization, information security, information environment, and information system use, and suggests their metrics.

The defense venture support program supports development so that it can be applied to the defense sector based on their technology and ideas to revitalize the private advancement of small and medium-sized enterprises to the defense sector. Since 2015, it has been operated with contributions from the Defense Acquisition Program Administration and has supported 84 projects. Moreover, it is an early stage in which results have been derived after 2018. In this study, the R&BD efficiency derived according to the budget for each project was compared using data envelopment analysis and classified and analyzed according to the characteristics of each project to identify the performance factors for each outstanding project. Based on the analysis results, this study considered support plans for efficient support programs and continuous performance creation in the future. As a result, it is expected that the effectiveness of the defense venture support project will be strengthened, and excellent performance will be expanded based on this study.

Defense R&D is an essential investment for the national security. Recently our nation has also begun to initiate a number of defense R&D projects. As a lot of fund and resources are allocated to these projects, we need to identify which projects to initiate and then how to manage these projects well. Though there have been a number of studies on R&D projects in commercial sector, there are only a few studies in defense R&D sector. Moreover, these existing defense R&D studies mainly deal with the former issues, which are occurring at the stage of project planing. We are more concerned with project management issues, such as how to manage projects that had already been evaluated to undertake at the planning stage. Specifically our study aims to identify project management factors leading to the success of defense R&D projects. Results of the empirical analysis indicate that management support, user-driven requirements management, and project planning capability are key elements for project performance.

In this paper, a study result to decide the accuracy specifications of inertial sensors satisfying the performance requirements of SINS(ship's inertial navigation system) is proposed. To do this, the performance specifications of overseas SINS is surveyed and the detailed error analysis of SINS at stationary condition is performed. Also, a new performance index to indicate the performance of SINS is derived. Modelling and simulation results show that the accuracy specifications of inertial sensors to meet the performance requirements of SIGMA40XP, a typical overseas SINS, can be determined through the newly derived performance index in this paper.

In this paper, we suggest a quantitative management scheme to accomplish effective weapon systems test and evaluation service(T&E). The Capability Maturity Model Integration(CMMI) process model has been introduced and applied for that purpose by the 8th directorate, Agency for Defense Development(ADD). Although a CMMI process model was developed focusing on the software development, systematic approaching scheme in the CMMI process model can be utilized for the quantitative management implementation of a weapon systems T&E service. To manage a T&E service quantitatively, at first, organizational performance objectives and sub processes are established, and then each performance indicators and performance base lines are followed.

Recently many studies of Radar systems mounted on ground vehicles for autonomous driving, SLAM (Simultaneous localization and mapping) and collision avoidance are reported. In near field, several hits per an object are generated after signal processing of Radar data. Hence, clustering is an essential technique to estimate their shapes and positions precisely. This paper proposes a method of grouping hits in range-doppler domains into clusters which represent each object, according to the pre-defined rules. The rules are based on the perceptual cues to separate hits by object. The morphological connectedness between hits and the characteristics of SNR distribution of hits are adopted as the perceptual cues for clustering. In various simulations for the performance assessment, the proposed method yielded more effective performance than other techniques.
