  • The small and silent Force Multiplier: A swarm UAV-electronic attack
    Journal of Intelligent and Robotic Systems: Theory and Applications, 2013
    Co-Authors: Polat Cevik, Abdullah S. Akgul, Ibrahim Kocaman, Barbaros Akca
    Abstract:

    At the last two decades, according to UAVsconcepts and technological advances, there have been lots of unimagined improvements. Nowadays there are serious works and researches about the usage of UAVs in military operations at electronic warfare (EW) missions. But most of the work on UAV platforms is based upon the advantages of a single, big, expensive, and non- expendable platform. In this study, to get rid off the disadvantages of a stand alone platform a new concept is developed consisting of multiple UAVs with smaller dimensions, at a cheaper price and a wider coverage. According to clarify the study, firstly the EWand RADAR systems and then the swarm UAV concepts are explained. In this man- ner the current and previous works are pointed out and then the use of the swarm UAVs for EA in military operations is stated. Objectively, the swarm UAV concept’s advantages and some outstanding challenges to the intra-theater space have been put forward regarding the information mentioned above. As a result it is considered that the swarm UAV systems will be tasked important EW missions in the future operation theatres, as soon as the technical handicaps are solved.

  • the silent Force Multiplier the history and role of uavs in warfare
    IEEE Aerospace Conference, 2007
    Co-Authors: K L B Cook
    Abstract:

    Many don't realize that the history of UAVs started nearly a century ago, and that the modern era of UAVs goes back nearly four decades. It often goes unnoticed that UAV development and employment is being pursued by more than 50 countries world-wide. This paper examines the history of unmanned aerial vehicles including the initial concepts and employment and the role of UAVs in warfare, providing examples from several conflicts throughout the world. An analysis of the reasons for the underutilization of UAV capabilities, the reasons why UAV missions have been successful, and basis for continuing to fund UAV development and employment is given. Finally, current UAV trends are discussed.
