An Efficient Scheduling Algorithm for a Mu1tifunction Radar Albert G. Huizing and Axel A.F. Bloemen TNO Physics and Electronics Laboratory P.O. Box 96864 2509 JG The Hague The Netherlands Abstract -The new generation of air defence frigates multiple radar functions to be carried out concurrently. has to be equipped with a high performance sensor suite to Since each antenna face has only one beam, a scheduling cope with the threat in future maritime scenarios. A mechanism must be devised that multiplexes the requests multifunction radar (MFR) with a single rotating or of each function for transmissiori of energy. multiple fixed phased array antennas is often the key There are several requirements for the scheduling element in this sensor suite because it can perform not only process in an MFR. First, the Combat System (CS) of the surveillance functions but also missile support. Since the air defence frigate must be able to influence the MFR must be able to execute multiple functions scheduling process in such a way that during an overload concurrently, a scheduling mechanism is required that of the time budget less importarit functions are skipped in allocates the time and energy resources of the MFR to the favour of more important functions. Second, the reaction radar functions in such a way that the overall performance time of the scheduling process to, for example, cue of the sensor suite is optimized. Thi
