Abstract

Space-based systems (SBS) technology has been advancing rapidly in terms of capability, affordability, size, and reliability. As in the commercial sector, defence and military institutions are looking to improve their space capabilities by increasing the number of smaller, more affordable, and more capable satellites that are being put into service. The military is looking to extend these capabilities at the strategic level, the operational and tactical levels. Increasing the number of satellites inevitably increases the complexity of planning for and operating the resulting constellations. Therefore, the benefit of employing more satellites must be evaluated not only to justify the increase in complexity, but also to show the significant improvements that can be achieved. In this paper, we propose a method to evaluate the performance and role of different SBS within the context of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR). An example is also given to demonstrate how different numbers of SBS can improve baseline ISR capabilities.
天基系统性能的分层评估
天基系统(SBS)技术在能力、可负担性、尺寸和可靠性方面发展迅速。与商业领域一样,国防和军事机构正在寻求通过增加投入使用的更小、更经济、更有能力的卫星的数量来提高其空间能力。军方正在寻求在战略层面、作战层面和战术层面扩展这些能力。卫星数量的增加不可避免地增加了规划和操作星座的复杂性。因此,必须评估使用更多卫星的好处,不仅要证明增加复杂性是合理的,而且要表明可以取得的重大改进。在本文中,我们提出了一种在情报、监视和侦察(ISR)背景下评估不同SBS性能和作用的方法。还给出了一个示例来演示不同数量的SBS如何提高基准ISR能力。
