  1. 1. Democratization of Intelligence? Comparing Vietnam and Ukraine

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Björn Erik Almroth; [2023]
    Keywords : Covert intervention; Vietnam War; Russia-Ukraine War; implausible deniability; democratization of intelligence; Law and Political Science;

    Abstract : This study explores how a contemporary systemic shift regarding secrecy and intelligence is affecting the strategic performance of states engaged in overt or covert intervention. These changes are conceptualized by researchers as “implausible deniability”, “delayed disclosure” and “the democratization of intelligence” and their significance are applied to limited-war theory with a theoretical focus on acknowledgment and open secrets.

  4. 3. High-Performance Beamforming for Radar Technology : A Comparative Study of GPU Beamforming Algorithms

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Oscar Lindgren; [2022]
    Keywords : Accelerated signal processing software; Beamforming; Electronic warfare; Electromagnetic waves; Emitter identification; Radar technology; Accelererad signalbehandlingsmjukvara; Beamforming; Elektronisk krigsföring; Elektromagnetiska vågor; Sändaridentifikation; Radarteknologi;

    Abstract : Radar technology is widely used in today´s society, whether it is the localisation and identification of aircraft in air traffic control systems, ships in harbour management systems, or the weather forecast presented on the news. In military applications, such as in fighter jets or missile lock-on systems, the speed at which the radar processes incoming data is essential to ensure a successful outcome. READ MORE

  5. 4. At the Heart of the Critical Vulnerability : Exploring Organizational and Technological Flexibility in Coastal Defense Anti-Ship Missile Warfare

    University essay from Försvarshögskolan

    Author : Jan-Erik Linell; [2022]
    Keywords : Anti-Ship Missile; Coastal Defense; Naval Tactics; Anti-Surface Warfare; Organizational Flexibility; Technological Flexibility; Redundancy; Versatility; Balance; Missile Salvo Model;

    Abstract : In coastal defense operations, anti-ship missile (ASM) attacks on amphibious assault high value targets (HVT) constitutes a window of opportunity with decisive potential. However, in war, the availability and performance of ASM-forces is uncertain and most likely less than ideal. READ MORE

  6. 5. Genetic Algorithms for optimizing behavior trees in air combat

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Artificiell intelligens och integrerade datorsystem

    Author : David Ångström; [2022]
    Keywords : Genetic Algorithm; Behavior Tree; Behavior Model; Simulation; Optimization;

    Abstract : Modelling and simulating entities in virtual environments are tools commonly used by companies to test, validate and verify their products in close to real scenarios; effectivelyreducing the cost, time and effort compared to real life testing. This is especially the case in the area of air combat where realistic behaviors are not only a necessity, but paramount to replace the costs of fuel and operation time. READ MORE
