Sensor / Network Electronic Attack Kit (S/NEAK)

The proposed effort will focus on the disruption of networks versus particular communications links using powerful optimization and co-design approaches. A technique for assigning target value metrics will be developed an applied to `best effort' extractions of adversary network topologies proposed in this work. Adversary network usage denial is conducted in conjunction with goals that reflect minimization of adverse impact to friendly and neutral communications and networks. By adjusting objective functions, we expect the core underlying algorithms and techniques to also apply to friendly communications planning as well as enemy jamming. All planning will account for location and jammer costs in terms of mobility and availability and resource contention.
