Threat Coping System No-Coping Area Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems lack the capability to effectively suppress misfiring when dealing with threats like drones or UAVs, especially in scenarios where commercial aircraft are present, as they fail to differentiate between targets and non-targets accurately.
Innovation Solution
A threat coping system is introduced, which includes a control device with a no-coping area setting means and a coping instruction means. This system sets a no-coping area around non-targets, such as passenger planes, and generates instruction signals to the threat coping device based on this area, ensuring that only designated targets are engaged.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the threat coping device is activated to engage all detected targets, then the effectiveness of countermeasure is improved, but the risk of misfiring at non-targets increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the operational space by defining a no-coping area around non-target objects. This spatial segmentation allows the threat coping device to engage threats while automatically excluding protected objects, thus resolving the contradiction between effective countermeasures and misfiring prevention.
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies different quality rules to different spatial zones: within the no-coping area, engagement is prohibited regardless of threat level, while outside this area, normal engagement rules apply. This local quality differentiation enables selective protection of non-targets without compromising overall threat response effectiveness.
2Object-affected harmful factors
If the system sets restrictions to avoid engaging non-targets, then the safety of non-targets is improved, but the ability to respond to threats is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The no-coping area is dynamically adjusted based on the position and movement of non-target objects. As non-targets move, the protected zone moves with them, ensuring continuous protection without creating static restrictions that would unnecessarily limit threat response capabilities in other areas.
Solution Approach 2:
The control device acts as an intermediary between the detection device and the threat coping device. It processes spatial information to determine whether targets fall within no-coping areas, thereby mediating between the desire to protect non-targets and the need to maintain effective threat response capability.
3Measurement precision
If the system monitors and adjusts coping actions in real-time, then the precision of target discrimination is improved, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by pre-defining no-coping areas around non-target objects before engagement decisions are made. This advance preparation of protected zones eliminates the need for complex real-time calculations during engagement, thereby improving target discrimination accuracy without proportionally increasing system complexity.

AI summary
A threat coping system (10) is provided with a threat coping device (300) that copes with a coping target (30) and a control device (200) that controls the threat coping device. The control device (200) is provided with a no-coping area setting means (514) and a coping instruction means (526). The no-coping area setting means (514) sets a no-coping area (12) based on information of a no-coping target that is not to cope with. The coping instruction means (526) generates an instruction signal, that instructs the threat coping device to cope a coping target, based on the no-coping area.
