Abstract :
A new measure for survivability of military communication networks based upon topological structures is presented. The proposed measure can be used to evaluate and enhance the survivability of military communication networks, which is illustrated through case studies. The computer simulation results have shown that the new measure can well reflect the survivability of networks. It can be used as a reliable criterion for estimating the survivability of networks and designing networks with high survivability
