THE METHOD OF EFFICIENT DISTRIBUTION OF DIFFERENT ELEMENTS OF A COMPLEX SYSTEM OF CONTROL

Abstract

Context. An important prerequisite for reliable protection of the state border of Ukraine is the effective detection of violators of the border. For this purpose, various state-of-the-art systems and observation complexes are used at the border agency, and some border dresses are equipped with the latest technical means of border guarding. The diversity of possibilities of individual means of observation in their complex use makes it important to determine the effective location of observation points, taking into account the features of the terrain. Objective. The purpose of the work is to develop a method for effective placement of elements of complex surveillance systems of the border agency. Method. The work proposes a heuristic approach to solving the problem of determining the effective placement of different capabilities of technical means of observation. The developed method is based on the cyclic use of the known method of combinatorial optimization of placement of observation points for all components of a complex surveillance system of the border agency with adjustment after each iteration of the overburden. At the same time, with the use of geo-processing takes into account the barrier to the negative impact of terrain and the possibility of different technical means of surveillance in different conditions. To assess the effectiveness of the functioning of the components of the surveillance system, an indicator is used reflecting the share of the area of the strip of overlap, which provides the identification of objectives. Results. As a result of using the proposed methodology, a rational structural construction of a complex surveillance system of the border guard body and a set of uncontrolled points of the area are obtained. This plurality can be used in planning the service of the units of the border guard. The description of algorithmic and program realization of the proposed method is given. Using the developed software, the optimization of the placement of three types of elements of a complex observation system (towers of the system of optoelectronic observation, mobile thermal imaging complexes, observation posts) was carried out. Conclusions. Modern construction of complex surveillance systems of the border agency in many cases is not optimal. To increase the efficiency of their operation, it is possible to use the proposed method of placement of elements of these systems on the ground.
