Abstract

The effects of intersystem interference on an ad-hoc network were investigated by simulating the behaviour and communications of a mechanized battalion. The investigation focused on the risk for fratricide and the battalion commander's ability to control the companies' area of coverage and advice company commanders about the positioning of individual vehicles. The results show that even moderate levels of intersystem interference may hamper the battalion commander's ability to control the companies' area of coverage and provide direct support to company commanders. The investigation did not reveal any risk for fratricide due to intersystem interference.
