This document discusses using the Data Distribution Service (DDS) middleware for video streaming in an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) image exploitation system. It outlines how DDS enables location transparency and redundancy for transmitting sensor data like video over topics with quality of service guarantees. Specifically, it proposes encapsulating MPEG-2 transport stream packets within DDS data types and topics to stream live and recorded UAV video footage in a decentralized manner using DDS.
This document provides information about MilSOFT, including:
- It was established in 1998 and operates facilities in Ankara and Istanbul, Turkey.
- It has expertise in areas like C4I, data links, image exploitation, electronic warfare, training and simulation, and embedded systems.
- It has experience providing systems integration and software development for military programs to Turkish and international clients.
- It maintains various quality certifications including CMMI Level-5, ISO 9001:2008, and NATO AQAP-160.
The document describes MilSOFT DDS middleware, including its features, architecture, and tools. Key points:
- MilSOFT DDS implements the DDS specification and uses RTPS as the underlying communication protocol. It supports profiles including minimum, persistence, and content filtering.
- The architecture is decentralized with no shared memory or services. It uses multicast for high performance communication and zero-copy for efficiency.
- Tools include an automatic code generator, spy for viewing live data, and a tester for validating applications.
- Performance tests show latencies of around 125-160 microseconds and throughput of 26.5 MB/second for reliable communication of 1KB messages.
Mil-INTEL supports all phases of the intelligence cycle from the tactical to strategic levels, provides seamless integration between levels, and manages intelligence resources, collection, processing, and dissemination. It also integrates intelligence from different sources like imagery, signals, open sources, and humans. Mil-INTEL is designed to be network-centric, adaptable to organizational changes, and allows collaboration between civilian and military intelligence systems.
Mil-INTEL supports all phases of the intelligence cycle from direction to collection, processing, and dissemination. It manages intelligence resources, plans collection, handles task management and monitoring, and manages target and intelligence information at tactical, strategic, armed forces, and counter intelligence levels. Mil-INTEL also provides a common intelligence picture and situational awareness through the integration of intelligence data sources and systems at both the tactical and strategic levels.
The document discusses the Data Distribution Service (DDS) middleware specification and MilSOFT's implementation of a DDS middleware. DDS is a publish-subscribe middleware standard that provides data-centric communication for distributed real-time systems. It uses a decentralized architecture that is fault-tolerant with no single point of failure. MilSOFT has developed its own DDS implementation that complies with the DDS and RTPS standards and provides tools like a data modeler and spy for developing, testing, and monitoring DDS-based systems.

İstihbarat, çok değişik alanlarda ve çok fazla sayıda bilginin toplanması, işlenmesi ve değerlendirilmesini gerektirir. Bu alanlar, stratejik seviyedeki çok üst karar mekanizmalarından, en alt seviyedeki teknik elemanlara kadar geniş bir ylepazeyi ilgilendirir ve hem askeri ve hem de sivil yönlari vardır.
İstihbarat çarkı dört ardışık safhadan oluşmaktadır; * İlk safha, ihtiyaçların bilgi toplama taleplerine dönüştürüldüğü ve bilgi toplama kaynakları için planlama yapıldığı yönlendirme safhasıdır, * İkinci safhada, haızrlanan plan kapsamında bilgi toplama kaynaklarından bilgiler toplanır ve bu işlem sürekli olarak gözlemlenir, * Üçüncü safha, toplanan bilgilerin işlendiği, birleştirildiği ve anlamlı bir istihbarat bilgisinin üretildiği işleme safhasıdır, * Son safhada, oluşturulan istihbarat bilgisinin doğrulaması yapılarak onaylanır ve kullanıcılara dağıtılır. Kullanıcıların müteakip istihbarat ihtiyaçlarına göre, istihbarat çarkı tekrarlanır.
Taktik seviyedeki tipik bir askeri istihbarat, harekat personeli tarafından istihbarat bilgi ihtiyaçlarının tespit edilmesi ve bu bilginin istihbarat birimlerinden talep edilmesi ile başlar. İstihbarat birimi, harekat merkezlerindeki bir istihbarat şubesi olabileceği gibi, müstakil bir istihbarat merkezi de olabilir. Bilgi talebinin alınması üzerine istihbarat birimi, gereken bilginin nasıl toplanacağı konusunda, mevcut bilgi toplama kaynaklarını göz önünde bulundurarak planlama yapar. Bilgi toplama kaynakları, istihbarat biriminin komutası altındaki kaynaklar olabileceği gibi, harici kuruluşlara ait kaynaklar da olabilir. Toplanan bilgi, kullanıcılara dağıtılmadan önce işleme tabi tutulur ve doğrulaması yapılır. Harekat personeli, alınan bilgiler ışığında, harekat planlarını gözden geçirir ve gerekli güncellemeleri yaparak, harekatı bu plana göre icra eder. Harekat devam ettikçe, ortaya çıkan istihbarat bilgi ihtiyaçlarının karşılanması için aynı döngü tekrarlanır.
İstihbarat sadece askeri alanla sınırlı olmayıp, sivil alanda da geniş ölçüde uygulanmaktadır. Bu yansıda, istihbaratın genel anlamda nasıl başladığı ve nasıl bir döngü içinde gerçekleştiği resimlenmiştir. İstiharatın amacı, üst seviyedeki siyasi veya askeri makamların niyetlerine paralel olarak, istenilen bilgilerin temin edilmesidir. İstihbarat bilgisi, karar mekanizmalarında yer alan personelin “en iyi” hareket tarzını seçmesine ve buna bağlı olarak harekatın başarısına büyük katkı sağlar. Harekat, askeri bir harekat olabileceği gibi, insani yardım veya siyasi yaptırım gibi sivil amaçlı bir harekat da olabilir. Üst seviyedeki makamların hangi alanlarda bilgiye ihtiyaç duydukları istihbarat teşkilatlarına aktarılır [Sol üst köşe Politika ve Komutan/Başkan] . Diğer taraftan, planlanan veya icra edilmekte olan bir harekata yönelik bilgi ihtiyaçları da harekat personeli tarafından bildirilir [Sağ alt köşe “Muharebe Sahası”] Bu bilgi ihtiyaçları, istihbarat personeline yönlendirilir ve istihbarat personeli tarafından istihbarat taleplerine dönüştürülür. Bu talepler, kendine ve/veya dış birimlere bağlı kaynaklara yönlendirilir ve talepleri karşılaması beklenir. Bilgi toplama kaynakları farklı istihbarat disiplinlerine ait olabilir (OSINT, SIGINT, IMINT ve HUMINT gibi) Farklı kaynaklardan ve farklı disiplinlerden bilgi toplamak istihbaratın güvenilirliğini artırır. [Sol alt köşe] Toplanan bilgiler, kullanıcıya dağıtılmadan önce, analiz edilir, işleme tabi tutulur, doğrulanır ve uygun şekilde birleştirilir. Bu şekilde oluşturulan istihbarat bilgisi, ancak yetkili makamlar tarafından onaylandıktan sonra yayımlanır. Bu sayede sadece doğruluğu teyit edilmiş bilgilerin kullanıcıya ulaşması sağlanır. Dağıtılan istihbaratın bir kısmını “Müşterek İstihbarat Resmi” oluşturur. İşlenmiş ve doğrulanmış bütün istihbarat bilgileri coğrafi bir altyapı üzerinde bir araya getirilerek, kullanıcıların farkındalıkları artırılır. { Bilmesi gereken prensibine göre kullanıcı bazında filtreleme yapılarak herkesin kendi gizlilik kleransına uygun bilgileri görmesi sağlanır.]
As the bottom-line; Mil-INTEL solution provides a strategic level, joint intelligence system. Due to its Turkuaz architecture, Mil-INTEL enables network centricity which increases situational awareness through textual, graphical and other formats. Mil-INTEL is independent of organizational structure, therefore it can be easily implemented in any organization and be adapted to organizational changes. Mil-INTEL provides interoperability by integrating different systems, and on a wider scope by bringing civilian and military systems together. On technological side, it provides interoperability between legacy systems, that use comparably old technologies, and future systems that shall be based on evolving technologies. Mil-INTEL has been built on Turkuaz capability and developed through Spiral Life Cycle Development model.
