A game-theoretic approach to managing the composition and structure of a bearing-only measurement system in conditions of a priori uncertainty

Abstract

The problem of managing the composition and structure of a bearing-only measurements system (BOMS) in a game-theoretic formulation is considered. An approach of cooperative search for the placement of BOMS points and a method for estimating the work-time indicator of the system are proposed. The search for the placement of BOMS points uses the toolkit of multi-agent potential games. The criteria for selecting the placement of points and the type of potential function are determined. The management of the composition and structure of the BOMS is based on the results of the cluster-variation method. A structural and functional description of the simulation model is presented. The above results of simulation modeling confirm the practical effectiveness of the proposed approaches.
