High dynamic topology and limited bandwidth of the airborne network make it difficult to provide reliable information interaction services for diverse combat mission of aviation swarm operations. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the elephant flows in the network in real time to optimize the process of traffic control and improve the performance of airborne network. Aiming at this problem, a timeliness-enhanced traffic identification method based on machine learning Bayesian network model is proposed. Firstly, the data flow training subset is obtained by preprocessing the original traffic dataset, and the sub-classifier is constructed based on Bayesian network model. Then, the multi-window dynamic Bayesian network classifier model is designed to enable the early identification of elephant flow. The simulation results show that compared with the existing elephant flow identification method, the proposed method can effectively improve the timeliness of identification under the condition of ensuring the accuracy of identification.

In order to enhance the anti-jamming capability of aeronautic swarm tactical network in the complicated electromagnetic environment, we address the problem of bandit-based cognitive anti-jamming strategy for enabling reliable information transmission. We first present an adversarial multiuser multi-armed bandit model for the aeronautic swarm network employing airborne cognitive radios with the same-frequency simultaneous transmit and receive feature. Then, we utilize the improved energy detection method to perform jamming sensing and derive the closed expression of false alarm probability, false detection probability, and the optimal decision threshold in the case of single and multi-jammer. Finally, using the jamming sensing output to calculate reward and with the objective of maximizing the throughput of each airborne radio, a decentralized selfish doubling trick kl-UCB++ anti-jamming strategy is developed to allocate an optimal configuration of transmitting power and spectrum channel to each radio. This anytime bandit strategy is simultaneously minimaxed optimal and asymptotically optimal. The simulation results validate that the aggregate average throughput, cumulative regret obtained with the proposed anti-jamming strategy outperform the well-known UCB, kl-UCB++ bandit algorithm.
