Abstract:

Finite state machines are a standard tool to model event-based control logic, and dynamic programming is a staple of optimal decision-making. We combine these approaches in the context of radar resource management for Naval surface warfare. There is a friendly (Blue) force in the open sea, equipped with one multi-function radar and multiple ships. The enemy (Red) force consists of missiles that target the Blue force's radar. The mission of the Blue force is to foil the enemy's threat by careful allocation of radar resources. Dynamically composed finite state machines are used to formalize the model of the battle space and dynamic programming is applied to our dynamic state machine model to generate an optimal policy. To achieve this in near-real-time and a changing environment, we use approximate dynamic programming methods. Example scenario illustrating the model and simulation results are presented.
