Abstract:

The main challenges in autonomous air combat mission include complex environment, strong gaming, fast dynamics, insufficient information, and uncertain boundaries. Nowadays, artificial intelligence (especially human-machine collaborative intelligence) has provided a good opportunity for addressing these challenges. We thus constructed an Air Combat Engagement Database (ACED). The ACED database is currently focused on Within-Visual-Range (WVR) air combat, which allocates the flight states and controls of experienced human pilots in WVR air combat missions. Based on this database, we first investigate the flight dynamics in air combat missions, and pro-pose that we should primarily analyze the roll angle and vertical load factor for researching the human pilot decision-making. The time window of pilot decision-making in WVR air combat is also studied, and the frequency of pilots maneuvering decision-making is analyzed by energy spectrum method. Moreover, the enemy aircraft trajectory prediction algorithm in WVR air combat is studied, the optimal key parameters of the algorithm are obtained for the trajectory prediction of different types of enemy aircraft. These illustrative applications verify the database established in this paper.
