Abstract

The article is devoted to the development of a comprehensive system of environmental monitoring and navigation using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which ensures functional stability in conditions of active enemy counteraction. The authors propose conceptual principles for the development of an integrated system that combines a subsystem of sensory monitoring of the combat line and a subsystem of autonomous navigation based on GPS signals. The system includes mobile sensors, pseudolites, ground control servers and information receivers located both on the UAV and on the ground. The key idea is to ensure the system's resistance to radio-electronic interference and combat damage by using a flexible structure, where elements can dynamically change their state (active/passive) and location using the UAV. In order to implement adaptive network control under uncertainty, the use of a neuro-fuzzy ANFIS system is proposed, which provides increased stability of the network's functioning to external destabilizing influences by combining the advantages of fuzzy inference and neural network learning.

The authors analyze existing approaches to building such systems, in particular methods of protection against interference and algorithms for network control, but emphasize the need to take into account factors of active enemy countermeasures, which is new compared to previous studies. Particular attention is paid to the use of artificial intelligence for adaptive network control in conditions of uncertainty. The results of the study show that the proposed system provides a navigation error within 5–25 meters and the reliability of monitoring information up to 0.9 on an area of up to 150 km². This makes it an effective tool for increasing the defense capability of Ukraine. The work is of great importance for the development of information technologies in the field of national security, offering innovative solutions for protecting critical infrastructure and increasing the effectiveness of combat operations.
