A Multiagent Frigate Movement Survival Approach
Submitting Author: Mr. Pierrick Plamondon
Abstract:
The position of a frigate to face some threats can augment its survival chances and
consequently it is important to investigate this aspect in order to determine how a
frigate can position itself during an attack. To achieve that, we propose a first method
based on the Bayesian movement which determines the optimal positioning of the frigate by
dividing the defense area into six fundamental sectors for weapon engagement and then, it
makes efficient use of all the weapons available by using the sectors. The second method
that we propose is called Radar Cross-Section Reduction (RCSR) movement and, it aims at
reducing the exposed surface of the frigate to incoming threats before their locking
phase is over. Preliminary results on these two methods are presented and discussed.
Finally, an implementation of a meta-level agent which would make efficient use of both
complementary methods is suggested.
