Abstract
The limitations of the Amazon environment require technological developments to improved data acquisition and military systems for managing, processing and sharing information, ensuring to military operations greater flexibility, interoperability and helping the decision-making. This paper proposes a hardware-software architecture for Command, Control, Computing, Communication, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Systems (C4ISR) that is being designed within the scope of Brazilian Armed Forces. This architecture is based in an Unmanned Aerial Platform and comprises the technologies of (1) Command and Control Interoperability (INTERC2), an intelligent communication middleware; (2) Mission-Oriented Sensors Array (MOSA), which automates and optimizes data acquisition, data fusion and data sharing; (3) InFFlight Awareness Augmentation System (IFA2S), that provides security for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) navigation; (4) Data Mining techniques to work with data patterns; and (5) an adaptive system, composed by a Software Defined Radio (SDR) that promote the electromagnetic signals identification. This paper also presents a case study that describes the operational requirements for the application of a solution to increase the capability of defense of the Amazon rainforest using already existing infrastructures of the Brazilian defense monitoring systems.
