Abstract In light of the escalating demand and intricacy of services in contemporary terrestrial, maritime, and aerial combat operations, there is a compelling need for enhanced service quality and efficiency in airborne cluster communication networks. Software-Defined Networking (SDN) proffers a viable solution for the multifaceted task of cooperative communication transmission and management across different operational domains within complex combat contexts, due to its intrinsic ability to flexibly allocate and centrally administer network resources. This study pivots around the optimization of SDN controller deployment within airborne data link clusters. A collaborative multi-controller architecture predicated on airborne data link clusters is thus proposed.… More >

Abstract A computer network can be defined as many computing devices connected via a communication medium like the internet. Computer network development has proposed how humans and devices communicate today. These networks have improved, facilitated, and made conventional forms of communication easier. However, it has also led to uptick in-network threats and assaults. In 2022, the global market for information technology is expected to reach $170.4 billion. However, in contrast, 95% of cyber security threats globally are caused by human action. These networks may be utilized in several control systems, such as home-automation, chemical and physical assault detection, intrusion detection, and… More >
