C2 Analysis of the Effectiveness of the Coyote LRESDExperiment Set-Up Eric Dorion and Maj M Gareau presented by Valdur Pille SAS Symposium – April 23-25 2002
Outline • The C2 Assessment Process • Formulating the LRESD Experiment Problem/Aim • Measures of Merit for the Experiment • Scenario Events to Elicit Coyote Responses • Lessons learned • Conclusion
Formulating the Problem – Aim of the experiment To demonstrate through rigorous experimentation how the Enhanced LAV Recce (ELR) allows for an increased Situation Awareness when compared to a standard LAV Recce. Efforts invested in this experiment are made in conjunction with the ISTAR TD projects

Experiment Surveillance Targets • A wide range of targets were used to measure the capacity of the sensor suites • Different target attitudes were also directed to cover the different capabilities of the sensors: • moving target • immobile target – engine hot • immobile target – engine cold • immobile target - camouflaged • target using optics • critical activities • non-vehicle targets (dismounted infantry and snipers)

Lessons learned • Tight integration of ELR CBMS (Coyote Battle Management System) was an issue • Sensor sweeping/switching influence on timeliness • MoPs not suited to measure the ELR Acoustic advantage • Some events are intrinsically hard to detect (e.g., Snipers on movement mission) • New sensors’ impact on Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
Conclusion • COBP was well suited for the LRESD experiment • We did not apply the COBP in its entirety, just the blocks we needed • Assessment Process has a Steep Learning Curve
