Communication system functions control conceptual model for detecting conflict situations

Abstract

Introduction: a communication system is an integral part of any control system, which includes subsystems for diagnostics, monitoring and control of its condition. The imperfection of control modern means, diagnostics and monitoring leads to a situation where decision support systems and decision makers carry out their activities in conditions of uncertainty. The process of making a decision and responding to a change in the state of the system due to the influence of various factors can lead to the failure of the system to fulfill its tasks. To effectively solve this problem, the control system must constantly have reliable information about the state of its elements, and the decision support system for the state of the elements must predict the process of functioning of the communication system. The purpose of the study: to develop an approach to monitoring the functioning of the communication system, which allows obtaining reliable and timely information about the controlled object, as well as identifying and responding in a timely manner to deviations from the stable functioning of the communication system. Methods: using the process approach and the mathematical apparatus of the theory of hierarchical decisions to formalize the functioning of the communication system and form the profile of the communication system. Results: an approach for describing a communication system is proposed, including the tasks and functions of the system. Based on the needs of communication and control systems, a profile of the communication system functioning is formed, which is compared with the functioning process profile of the communication system formed in the process of the communication system functioning. The results of the comparison show the presence of conflicts caused by the influence of various destabilizing factors, the conditions of a changing environment and the control actions of a higher management system. The results obtained are used to form the field of decisions required by decision makers. Practical significance: the results of the study can be used in the design and construction of control systems, diagnostics and monitoring of the state of the communication system. The proposed approach can be used to control the fulfillment of tasks and functions of the communication system during its operation.
