Title: Air Defence Decision Support System Design Using Fuzzy Logic

Abstract: Since air vehicles move faster than land or sea vehicles, warships must be able to perceive their threats from the air in a limited amount of time and react appropriately. Information from various sensors such as radar, electronic support systems, eyes are used to identify air targets correctly. The determination of the target type and threat level is of great importance in terms of determining the reaction to be shown. In this study, the threat level was determined by using the velocity, altitude, distance and climb rate values of the air targets and the fuzzy logic rules which are obtained by the expert opinion.

Keywords: Fuzzy logic; air defence; decision support system

Başlık: Bulanık Mantık Kullanarak Hava Savunma Karar Destek Sistemi Tasarımı

Özet: Hava araçlarının kara ya da deniz araçlarına göre daha hızlı hareket etmesinden dolayı, savaş gemilerinin havadan gelecek tehditleri kısıtlı sürede doğru algılaması ve uygun reaksiyonu göstermesi gerekmektedir. Hava hedeflerinin doğru şekilde kimliklendirilebilmesi için radar, elektronik destek sistemleri, göz gibi çeşitli sensörlerden gelen bilgiler kullanılmaktadır. Hedef tipinin ve tehdit seviyesinin belirlenmesi, gösterilecek reaksiyonun belirlenmesi açısından büyük önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmada, hava hedeflerine ait hız, irtifa, mesafe ve tırmanma oranı değerleri ile uzman görüşü alınarak oluşturulan bulanık mantık kuralları kullanılarak tehdit seviyesi belirlenmiştir.
