Research on Operation Simulative Training in Information Age

Abstract:

The military operations in information age emerged new characteristics, and the traditional simulative training ways couldnt meet the requirements of information age anymore, so the new simulative training ways need to be researched. Therefore, the paper proposed a three fields view of operation simulative training suitable for information age at first, which established the research framework for now and future. Secondly, the paper designed the simulative training system, including the HLA-based architecture and running mode, it resolved the implement issue of system. Thirdly, the paper proposed the network-in-the-loop idea, and resolved the network simulating by OPNET EMA technique. Network simulating is the critical part for information field simulating. Lastly, with IP filter hook technique and etc, the paper proposed a new C2 training way based on object-in-the-loop, the new way overcame the shortages in traditional C2 training ways effectively. The papers work has been applied successfully in the Tactical Internet simulative training system.
