ABSTRACT:
A system for managing a weapon system is provided. The system includes a number of mobile robotic vehicles (MRVs), a number of squads, each squad having a lead MRV and member MRVs, a number of central control systems, a number of reactive control systems, a central planning control configured to control the plurality of central control systems, a behavior-based reactive control configured to control the plurality of reactive control systems, an intermediated control layer configured to control the central planning control and the behavior-based reactive control, a number of hybrid control models configured to communicate with the intermediate control layer, the hybrid control models including a planning driven model and an adaptation model, a number of synthetic control models configured to communicate with the hybrid control models, and a number of synthetic hybrid control models configured based on combinations of the hybrid control models and the synthetic control models.
