DAP 2212: Development of a tool to predict the performance and the risk of C-sUAS systems

In this research project, we want to develop a tool able to predict the performance of C-UAS systems on the one side and the risk (induced collateral damage) on the other side, along the kill chain DTIN (Detection-Track-Identification-Neutralization). The project is divided into two distinctive parts, sensors and effectors, which are investigated by two researchers. Our objectives are to create realistic models for sensors and effectors, with increasing complexity, to match with practical field results. Those models will finally be integrated into a software for 3D coverage visualisation, sensor/effector optimal position, performance and risk predictions and scenario’s illustration.

dazzled-2

Illustration of the C-UAS Planning andVisualization Tool (CPVT) integrated within Blender environment. It shows the 3D coverage, of a fixed detection range sensor.

dazzled-2

Illustration of the python code implementing the Johnson model. This model can run different level of complexity, depending on the known information regarding the different parameters of the system.

dazzled-2

The Johnson model allows to get a rough approximation of detection range given some inputs parameters of the systems.
