Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of wargaming technology, and in particular to a laser-based wargaming system and method. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of low-altitude, slow-moving, and small target technology, represented by drones, while bringing numerous conveniences to society, it has also posed new threats to public safety. Low-altitude, slow-moving, and small targets are a general term for various small aircraft and aerial objects that fly at low or very low altitudes and have relatively slow speeds. Common low-altitude, slow-moving, and small targets mainly include lightweight drones, model aircraft, multi-rotor drones, and fixed-wing drones. Due to their low cost, low barrier to entry, and ability to be remotely controlled or have pre-programmed flight paths, they are easily used to carry out malicious acts of sabotage, posing a significant challenge to public safety. Faced with this serious situation, countries have taken various measures to address the threat of low-altitude, slow-moving, and small targets. Among these measures, laser hard-destruction technology, as an effective defensive means, is gradually maturing. Many countries have reported their respective laser system solutions, demonstrating the enormous potential of this technology in practical applications.

[0003] To fully leverage the effectiveness of various types of laser systems in the future, targeted education and training are crucial. Wargaming, as an effective means of simulating adversarial actions, is widely used in military, economic, social crisis management, and public security fields. Due to the unique nature of public security crisis management, large-scale laser warfare offensive and defensive drills cannot be organized in a real-world environment. Therefore, establishing a wargaming platform—that is, constructing a laser-based simulated offensive and defensive environment—provides guidance for relevant departments in developing security plans and building protection systems. Wargaming platforms simulate attacks on important security facilities or protected targets by low-speed, small targets, threatening social stability and public safety, and verify the effectiveness of attack blocking and security system protection. Therefore, using wargaming to strengthen daily training and plan optimization for countering low-speed, small target threats with laser systems is of great significance for improving the security defense capabilities of the entire society. However, existing technologies have limitations: they lack a tactical-level wargaming application platform and system specifically designed for maintaining public security and using laser systems to counter and handle low-speed, small target threats. This means they cannot provide relevant departmental decision-makers with a reference for improving their planning, decision-making, and on-the-spot response capabilities in using new equipment to deal with new threats.

[0004] Developing rapid response plans for dealing with low-altitude, slow-moving, and small targets based on the capabilities of laser systems, and conducting thorough feasibility verification in advance, requires efficient and reliable verification methods. Wargaming can not only verify the feasibility of plans but also allow for human-in-the-loop simulations involving those implementing the plans, thereby enhancing the command and decision-making capabilities of relevant departments.

[0005] Therefore, by accelerating the research and development and promotion of relevant wargaming platforms and building a comprehensive wargaming system, we can more effectively enhance our ability to respond to threats from low-speed, small targets and ensure public safety. Summary of the Invention

[0027] Preferably, the laser system unit uses a DE-MSHORAD system; the DE-MSHORAD system is a directed energy mobile short-range laser air defense system.

[0028] Preferably, the laser-based counter-wargaming system is used to simulate a counter-scenario involving small drones harassing VIP convoys in mid-latitude inland areas;

[0029] The simulation map depicts an adversarial environment within a 17km wide and 36km long area, used to locate and regulate the movement of the simulation operators. The terrain pattern on the simulation map is covered with a grid consisting of multiple hexagonal cells, each individually numbered.

[0032] This invention also protects a laser-based wargaming method, which utilizes the laser-based wargaming system described in any of the preceding claims to perform the wargaming process, comprising the following steps:

[0033] Step S110: Based on the information recorded in the simulation scenario module, initialize the position and status information of the simulation operator on the simulation map;

[0034] Step S120: Determine the confrontation period in the simulation and the atmospheric visibility conditions within the corresponding period. Divide the unit time into multiple confrontation periods according to the atmospheric visibility conditions and mark them at the atmospheric visibility mark and the period mark in the laser confrontation war game simulation system respectively.

[0035] Step S130: Initiate a round of simulation process, including using the relevant requirements of the simulation scenario module or the decision table in the simulation rules module to determine the atmospheric turbulence conditions during the execution of one confrontation period, and marking the round number with the simulation round record track in the laser confrontation wargaming simulation system; the simulation process takes atmospheric turbulence as the main influencing factor of atmospheric transmission on laser generation;

If one side initiates an active action first, the other side's passive action is triggered by the active action. The initiation of the round action is determined according to the corresponding adjudication rules in the deduction rule module.

[0037] Step S150: Perform round maintenance. The round maintenance includes clearing the simulation operators lost by each combatant, restoring and correcting the information values ​​and action values ​​of each simulation operator, and determining whether to end the simulation or enter the next round based on the relevant requirements of the simulation scenario module. If the relevant requirements of the simulation are met, the victory condition is triggered and the simulation is determined to end.

The first, fifth and sixth confrontation periods are nighttime confrontation periods, in which infrared detection is used to obtain target information. The second, third and fourth confrontation periods are daytime confrontation periods, in which visible light, infrared or radar is used to detect targets. Atmospheric visibility is selected from three distance standards: 5km, 10km and 23km.

[0054] Specifically, the troop unit operators are used to simulate the troop strength and weapon platforms of various opposing units in a wargame.

[0064] Specifically, the laser system unit is obtained by modeling the existing publicly reported confrontation modes of laser systems against drones to obtain a laser system confrontation behavior model. The laser system confrontation behavior model is used as the simulation process in the wargaming system and incorporated into the entire wargaming rules.

[0065] Specifically, after the simulation begins, the simulation rules module is used to provide simulation constraints.

[0066] The adjudication mechanism in the deduction rules module includes a firepower confrontation adjudication mechanism and a laser confrontation adjudication mechanism. Furthermore, the firepower confrontation adjudication process specifically includes two processes: firepower strike accuracy adjudication and target survival adjudication; the laser confrontation adjudication process specifically includes two processes: laser strike accuracy adjudication and laser strike target survival adjudication.

[0067] Preferably, the laser system unit uses a laser system primarily based on the DE-MSHORAD system, which has been publicly reported abroad; the DE-MSHORAD system is a directed energy mobile short-range laser air defense system developed by the United States.

The laser-based countermeasures wargaming system primarily simulates the process of hostile elements in the region using small drones to continuously harass ground convoys.

[0071] Specifically, Figure 1 A simulation map depicting a confrontation occurring within a 17km wide and 36km long area is provided.

[0074] The most significant feature of the laser-based countermeasure wargaming system described in the second and third embodiments is its ability to simulate real-world security conflicts between traditional forces in a specific region. Based on this, the laser system is incorporated into the simulated confrontation, enabling simulations of laser-based countermeasures against unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). This allows for the evaluation of the laser system's role in localized operations and its potential countermeasure applications. Specifically, the wargaming system models and simulates the laser system as a force unit operator within the wargaming system, used to counter UAVs employing different harassment modes. The laser system and UAV combat and training technologies used represent future trends in new technology equipment development. Laser-based countermeasure wargaming constructs different attack scenarios and strategies for low-, slow-moving, and small targets, simulates the possible paths and attack ranges of these targets, and pre-rehearses defensive strategies using laser systems. It also develops corresponding offensive and defensive contingency plans to evaluate current or predict future security situations. The laser-based countermeasure wargaming process provides a reference for better scheduling and decision-making in dealing with low-, slow-moving, and small threats.

[0075] The fourth embodiment of the present invention provides a laser-based wargaming method, wherein the method utilizes the laser-based wargaming system described in any of the foregoing embodiments to perform wargaming simulations, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the laser-based wargaming simulation method includes the following steps:

[0076] Step S110: Based on the information recorded in the simulation scenario module, initialize the position and status information of the simulation operator on the simulation map;

[0077] Step S120: Determine the confrontation period in the simulation and the atmospheric visibility conditions within the corresponding period. Divide the unit time into multiple confrontation periods according to the atmospheric visibility conditions and mark them at the atmospheric visibility mark and the period mark in the laser confrontation war game simulation system respectively.

[0078] Step S130: Initiate a round of simulation process, including using the relevant requirements of the simulation scenario module or the decision table in the simulation rules module to determine the atmospheric turbulence conditions during the execution of one confrontation period, and marking the round number with the simulation round record track in the laser confrontation wargaming simulation system; the simulation process takes atmospheric turbulence as the main influencing factor of atmospheric transmission on laser generation;

[0079] Step S140: Execute a round action, which includes active and passive actions of the opposing units. If one side initiates an active action first, the other side's passive action is triggered by the active action. The initiation of the round action is determined according to the corresponding adjudication rules in the deduction rule module.

[0080] Step S150: Perform round maintenance. The round maintenance includes clearing the simulation operators lost by each combatant, restoring and correcting the information values ​​and action values ​​of each simulation operator, and determining whether to end the simulation or enter the next round based on the relevant requirements of the simulation scenario module. If the relevant requirements of the simulation are met, the victory condition is triggered and the simulation is determined to end. If the relevant requirements of the simulation are not met, return to step S130 and enter the simulation process of the next round.

[0081] Step S160: After all rounds of simulation are completed, the multi-party adversarial units in the wargame simulation summarize and organize the process data and result data of the aforementioned wargame simulation. The process data and result data are combined with the summary clauses and organized to adjust and update the simulation scenario module and simulation operator module of the laser adversarial wargame simulation system.

[0082] Specifically, the result of the confrontation period determination is given and recorded by the relevant requirements of the simulation scenario module or the adjudication table in the simulation rules module; the result of the atmospheric visibility condition determination within the corresponding period is recorded by the simulation map.

[0083] Furthermore, the atmospheric turbulence condition determination during the adversarial period of the war game simulation is performed only once in step S130, which means that the atmospheric turbulence condition remains unchanged within the same round.

[0084] Preferably, the time resolution of the confrontation period is 10 minutes.

[0085] Furthermore, the adversarial period can be adjudicated through the adjudication table in the deduction rules module, or it can be directly given by the relevant requirements of the deduction in the deduction scenario module.

[0086] Step S160 indicates that the laser counter-war game simulation method of this embodiment can realize the updating and upgrading of the laser counter-war game simulation system, thereby improving the simulation accuracy and evaluation and verification effect of the laser counter-war game simulation system.

[0087] In the fifth embodiment of the present invention, steps S110-S160 of the above-mentioned laser counter-wargaming method are implemented using the laser counter-wargaming system provided in the third embodiment. Specifically:

[0088] In step S120, the day is divided into six confrontation periods, specifically the first to sixth confrontation periods. The first, fifth, and sixth confrontation periods are nighttime confrontation periods, characterized by a dark background, which affects the visible light reconnaissance and detection capabilities of troop units, requiring the use of infrared detection to acquire target information. The second, third, and fourth confrontation periods are daytime confrontation periods, with a bright background, allowing the use of visible light, infrared, and radar to detect targets. During the first and fifth confrontation periods, atmospheric turbulence is likely to have a relatively small impact. During the third confrontation period, atmospheric turbulence is likely to have a significant impact. The organizers or referees of the simulation determine the battlefield atmospheric visibility based on the actual situation, which can be determined by providing an atmospheric visibility adjudication table in the simulation rules module. Here, considering atmospheric visibility as a major influencing factor on laser transmission, the atmospheric visibility in this embodiment (…) Choose three distance standards: 5km, 10km, and 23km.

[0089] Furthermore, in step S130, atmospheric turbulence is considered as the main influencing factor of atmospheric transmission on laser generation. The magnitude of atmospheric turbulence is divided into four categories: weak turbulence (W), moderately weak turbulence (MW), moderately strong turbulence (MH), and strong turbulence (H). Based on the turbulence characteristics under different meteorological conditions and at different times of conflict, a decision table corresponding to different atmospheric turbulence conditions is obtained.

[0090] In step S140 of this embodiment, the active actions in the round of action include conventional ground maneuvering, high-speed ground maneuvering, air maneuvering, optical reconnaissance, electronic reconnaissance, fire strike, laser strike, take-off of low-slow-small targets, altitude adjustment of low-slow-small targets, recovery of low-slow-small targets, and crashing of low-slow-small targets. The passive actions include passive optical reconnaissance, passive electronic reconnaissance, evasion and retreat, fire counterattack, and laser counterattack.

[0091] Specifically, the adjudication rules for the aforementioned round of actions mainly include target information acquisition adjudication, strike accuracy adjudication, and strike effect adjudication. Once the party initiating the action has acquired target information values ​​that meet the attack threshold, it can execute a firepower strike or a laser strike against the target. The outcome of the action is determined by the specific strike accuracy adjudication and strike effect adjudication in the aforementioned deduction rule module.

[0092] For fire strike operations, the accuracy determination assesses whether the active action hit the target. The damage effect determination, following a successful accuracy determination, further assesses the damage effect of the fire strike on the target using a table similar to Table 1. In Table 1, the horizontal header represents the firepower intensity (levels 1-7), and the vertical header represents the defense level of a target (levels 1-5). The data in the table are thresholds (0-10) for damage effects described using damage probability. A threshold between 0 and 10 corresponds to a damage probability between... For example, in Table 1, row 2, column 3 corresponds to a firepower intensity of 3 and a target defense of 2. The threshold for the damage effect on the target is 5. That is, in a real-world scenario during a round-based simulation, if the damage effect obtained by the defending side's target through the random generation device is... (Corresponding damage probability is) ),when If the target is not destroyed, it is determined that the target was not damaged. If the target is damaged, it is determined that the target was destroyed. Each side in the confrontation has multiple targets, so there are multiple firepower strike effect determination tables similar to Table 1.

[0093] Table 1. Example of a fire strike effect determination table for a target in the fifth embodiment.

[0094]

[0095] For laser strike operations, the aforementioned strike accuracy determination is used to determine whether the active action hit the target. The strike effect determination, following the successful strike accuracy determination, further assesses the damage effect of the laser strike on the target. Specifically, since the laser strike effect is directly related to the laser's effective range, the map intervals between different targets on the simulation map are first obtained. These map intervals refer to the projected distance between the unit operator initiating the laser strike and the target on the simulation map. The interval unit is the number of hexagonal grids separating the unit operator and the target on the simulation map. A laser strike intensity level table, similar to Table 2, is obtained through theoretical calculations. Generally, the optical system unit operator corresponds to different laser strike intensity levels (levels 1-5) for targets at different operating altitudes. Specifically, as shown in Table 2, the laser strike intensity level table provides the intensity level of the DE-MSHORAD system with a laser power of HEL=50kW at atmospheric visibility of [missing information]. 23km, altitude is The intensity level (level 1-5) for laser strikes against flying targets at 1km.

[0096] A series of laser strike intensity level tables can be obtained based on different atmospheric visibility and target altitude conditions. By consulting these tables to determine the corresponding laser strike intensity level for the target, and then combining this with the laser strike effect adjudication table shown in Table 3, damage effects can be adjudicated for targets with different defense levels (levels 1-6). Similarly, in real-world simulations, if the laser strike damage effect obtained by the defending side's target through a random generation device is... (Corresponding damage probability is) ),set up The defense strength in Table 3 is Light intensity level is The threshold for the corresponding damage effect, when If the target is not damaged by the laser, it is determined that the target was not destroyed by the laser. If the laser strike is successful, the target is determined to be damaged by the laser. Since each side in the confrontation has multiple targets, there are still multiple laser strike effect determination tables similar to Table 3.
