Chart of Status of the Unmanned Aviation Complex

Abstract

A scheme of interrelationships of external and internal macro- and microenvironmental factors and their influence on the states of the unmanned aerial vehicle system has been developed. It is proposed to use an approach with elements of graph theory and set theory to analyze the states of an unmanned aircraft complex. The given graph of the functioning of the man-machine system of a sample of the unmanned aircraft complex of the “micro UAS unmanned aircraft system” class sets the transitions that determine the closed cycle of the execution of a combat mission.
 An example of building a structure of functional indicators of unmanned aerial vehicles with life cycle elements using graph theory for the analysis of “bottlenecks” in ensuring reliability is given. The analysis of “bottlenecks” in the control systems of unmanned aerial vehicles in the area of the ground control station – unmanned aerial vehicle is aimed at determining directions for increasing reliability, flight safety, increasing functionality, flight range and improving ergonomic characteristics.
 A comprehensive analysis of the functioning and dynamics of changes in reliability indicators with relevant data for previous periods of operation will allow us to draw specific conclusions about the actual level of reliability of the UAS un manned aircraft system fleet and identify bottlenecks for further improvement and the possibility of transitioning to the use of third-generation BpAK (autonomous devices) with self-learning systems with artificial intelligence.
 The theoretical rationale and the given practical recommendations should be taken into account when developing new prospective models of unmanned aerial vehicles for the Armed Forces of Ukraine in accordance with their official purpose.
