Dynamic Air Mission Plan Management System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing air mission plan management systems are inadequate in adapting to changes in the mission context, such as modifications in objectives, constraints, or unexpected events during the mission.
Innovation Solution
A system that includes a mission calculation engine capable of transforming objectives into tasks, distributing tasks among platforms based on availability and operational state, and generating detailed mission plans with flight trajectories and resource allocation, while also allowing for real-time adjustments and automatic proposal of new mission plans in response to changing conditions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a mission plan management system is designed to be simple to use, then ease of operation is improved, but the system's ability to adapt to changes in mission context during the mission deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The mission plan management system implements dynamic adaptability by allowing real-time modifications to mission objectives and constraints during mission execution. The system can recalculate and update mission plans on-the-fly when changes are detected, transforming a static system into a dynamic one that adapts to evolving mission contexts while maintaining user-friendly operation through automated adjustment mechanisms.
2Reliability
If existing mission management systems are used, then current mission plans can be executed, but they cannot adapt to modifications in objectives, constraints, or unexpected events during the mission
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements continuous feedback mechanisms by monitoring mission execution status, platform operational states, and environmental conditions. When changes are detected in mission context or unexpected events occur, the system automatically triggers recalculation of mission plans, creating a closed-loop control system that maintains reliability through adaptive response to changing conditions.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary calculations of alternative mission plans and prepares adjustment strategies in advance. When changes occur during mission execution, the pre-calculated options and automated recalculation capabilities enable rapid adaptation without compromising mission reliability, as the system is already prepared with potential response options.
