Patent ID: 8005657

Claim:
A method of determining survivability comprising: selecting a first mission scenario for a vehicle and providing data associated with the first mission scenario as input to a plurality of low-level modeling tools each associated with a unique corresponding spectrum; performing a first spectral analysis of the first mission scenario using each of the low-level modeling tools and a low-level model for each unique corresponding spectrum; generating a first event probability matrix for each unique analyzed spectrum based on output of the corresponding low-level model, the first event probability matrix including a first probability of detection, a first probability of tracking, and a first probability of engagement for each of a plurality of first mission scenario reference points; performing a first constructive analysis by providing the first event probability matrix as input to a high-level simulation system configured to simulate actual event outcome for a first mission scenario simulation run; determining a first probability of survival based on a result of the first constructive analysis; providing as output a first report based on the determining of the first probability of survival; selecting a second mission scenario for the vehicle and providing data associated with the second mission scenario as input to the plurality of low-level modeling tools each associated with a different corresponding spectrum; performing a second spectral analysis of the second mission scenario using each of the low-level modeling tools and a low-level model for each different corresponding spectrum; generating a second event probability matrix for each different analyzed spectrum based on output of the low-level model, the second event probability matrix including a second probability of detection, a second probability of tracking, and a second probability of engagement for each of a plurality of second mission scenario reference points; performing a second constructive analysis by providing the second event probability matrix as input to a high-level simulation system configured to simulate actual event outcome for a second mission scenario simulation run; determining a second probability of survival based on a result of the second constructive analysis; and providing as output a second report based on the determining of the second probability of survival.
