Abstract

Hypernetworks play a very important role in describing command-and-control (C2) networks with complex levels, interleaved links, and dynamic topology. Based on the modeling method of edge-linking strategy and combined with the command hierarchy, a modeling method of C2 hypernetwork based on hierarchy-betweenness edge-linking strategy is proposed. First, the nodes and links of the C2 network are abstracted, and a multi-layer hypernetwork model for intra- and inter-layers is established; second, the definition of hierarchy-betweenness is given, and the hierarchy-betweenness edge-linking strategy is proposed; finally, model simulation experiments are designed to analyze the network performance of different edge-linking strategy models. The simulations show that the model built by this method exhibits approximate scale-free characteristics and small-world features, and has better invulnerability.
