Abstract:This paper introduces the concept of operation loop, and a network model of combat networks of Weapon System-of-systems based on operation loop. Then the concept of directed natural connectivity is proposed and is used to investigate the robustness of combat networks. To verify the feasibility and effectiveness of directed natural connectivity in evaluating the robustness of combat networks, three scenarios are designed: edge destruction, edge increasing and connection probability increasing. The robustness of combat networks measured by spectral radius of Laplacian matrix and directed natural connectivity are compared under the three scenarios. The results suggested that the directed natural connectivity allows a sensitive and precise quantitative analysis for the robustness of combat network. It is also showed that robust of combat networks will decrease dramatically if intelligence reconnaissance and acquisition capabilities of sensor nodes are restrained. Our results may lead to useful insights on designing a more robust combat networks, such as improving the accuracy of intelligence acquisition, ensuring instructions delivered accurately, strengthening the capability of precision strike, and enhancing communication capabilities of armaments etc.
