Modeling and performance analysis of military communication network based on complex network.

Aiming at the characteristic of the complexity and the network structure of the military communication system, the component elements of the communication network model are extracted by analyzing the equipment entities and the communication relationships among equipments in the system, and then a graph structure model for military communication network is proposed. On the basis, the measurement indexes based on graph theory are designed, and the performance of the military communication network is analyzed, which includes equipment entities importance, link communication importance and network invulnerability. Finally, an example is calculated to verify the feasibility of the proposed model and the evaluation method, which positively supports for constructing complex systems in the network centric warfare.
