Link 16 Message Processing Based on Transaction

Data link is a key factor for achieving interoperability of combat units to enhance operational capability in modern net-centric operations. Aiming at improving the interoperability between combat units, we propose a general message processing mechanism and construct a transaction based model. Taking a typical function of link 16 for example, the proposed method of message processing is illustrated. Experiment results demonstrate that the transaction based method is able to realize standardization of message processing. Besides, the reachability, coverability and completeness of processing are verified via the executable Petri net model analysis.
