Abstract
In this paper, we designed a beacon-based hybrid routing protocol to adapt to the new forms of intelligent warfare, accelerate the application of unmanned vehicles in the military field, and solve the problems such as high maintenance cost, path failure, and repeated routing pathfinding in large-scale unmanned vehicle network communications for new battlefields. This protocol used the periodic broadcast pulses initiated by the beacon nodes to provide synchronization and routing to the network and established a spanning tree through which the nodes communicated with each other. An NS3 platform was used to build a dynamic simulation environment of service data to evaluate the network performance. The results showed that when it was used in a range of 5 ~ 35 communication links, the beacon-based routing protocol’s PDR was approximately 10% higher than that of AODV routing protocol. At 5 ~ 50 communication links, the result was approximately 20% higher than the DSDV routing protocol. The routing load was not related to the number of nodes and communication link data and the protocol had better performance than traditional AODV and DSDV routing protocol, which reduced the cost of the routing protocol and effectively improved the stability and reliability of the network. The protocol we designed is more suitable for the scenarios of large-scale unmanned vehicle network communication in the future AI battlefield.
Highlights
A modern battlefield considers large-scale unmanned vehicle network (LUVN) operations, with a single unmanned vehicle (UV) as the basic task unit
(1) Packet Delivery Rate (PDR) PDR is the ratio of packets received by the target node to packets sent by the source node

Summary
A modern battlefield considers large-scale unmanned vehicle network (LUVN) operations, with a single unmanned vehicle (UV) as the basic task unit. In large-scale specific application scenarios, the network could stably and reliably execute information interaction [2,3]. Considering LUVN communication in future military applications, it is important to design a network routing protocol that can satisfy the requirements of a large-scale network of 100 or more nodes while maintaining good network performance with the topology of the network changing rapidly.
