Abstract

Battle Management Language (BML) is defined as an unambiguous language intended to provide for command and control of simulated and live forces in U.S. It has been developed to connect between command and control system and Modeling & Simulation in the U.S., including NATO M&S Working Group. Its goal is to provide situational awareness and offer a path forward for interoperation of C2 systems and simulations. This study deals with BML development in U.S. that begins from army and is being expanded in multinational environment. It also proposes the BML application for C4I and M&S interoperation in the Korean forces. Recent developments of BML in U.S. have shown the potential for interoperation between C2 systems and simulations in a coalition environment. Finally, this study proposes a general BML application method and shows the example of its application to the Korea Joint Command Control System (KJCCS). It provides an architecture and a milestone for BML application in the Korean forces.

전투관리언어인 BML은 미군에서 가상 부대 및 실제 부대를 지휘 및 통제하기 제공하기 위한 명확한 언어라고 정의할 수 있다. BML은 C2 체계와 M&S를 연결하기 위해 미국과 NATO에서 개발되었다. BML이 개발된 목적은 전장정보를 통해 상황인식을 제공하고, C2 체계와 M&S간 상호운용을 위한 해법을 제시하는 것이라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구는 육군에서 시작하여 다국적국으로 구성된 환경으로 확장되고 있는 미국의 BML 개발과정에 대해서 설명하고, 한국군에서 C4I체계와 M&S간 상호운용을 위한 BML 적용 방안에 대해서 제안한다. 최근, 미국에서는 BML을 연합국으로 구성된 환경에서 적용하여 긍정적인 결과를 얻었는데, 이는 C2 체계와 M&S간 상호운용에 대한 가능성을 보여주었다. 마지막으로, 본 연구는 BML을 한국군에 적용하기 위한 방안으로 한국군 합동지휘통제체계를 중심으로 제안하였다. 이는 향후 한국군에서 BML 적용시 밑그림을 제공 할 것이라고 판단된다.
