- the referee can be the manager of the network or the simulation of the training. If the laser shot is a shot from a simulator's shooting simulator, then the computer 66 processes and executes at step 102 the instructions contained in the laser shot.
- the computer 66 determines whether the shot is a measurement shot of the distance D or a simulation of real shots. If the laser shot is a measurement shot distance D then the computer 66 returns to standby state in step 101.
- step 103 the computer 66 checks whether the combat actor is only shot at by the shot. To do this, the computer 66 compares the difference between the measured distance D contained in the laser shot and a real distance corresponding to the impact date (ti) of the shot on the actor in combat carrying said target device. If the deviation is greater than a pre-defined set point threshold, then the computer 66 returns to standby state at step 101.

- the size of the signaling may comprise only information concerning the corresponding target device, in which case the signaling may have a size of 16 bytes.
- the signaling is a message of 29 bytes of data. It can be structured as follows: Table 2 Number of bytes Characteristics 1 Nature of the laser shot 2 Participant code of the shooter 1 Type of ammunition 2 Number of shots 2 Difference between actual distance and measured distance 2 Values criteria of discrimination 2 Site / azimuth deviation 1 Number of target devices in the group 2 Target participant code 1 2 Target discrimination criteria 1 2 Target participant code 2 2 Target discrimination criteria 2 2 Target participant code 3 2 Target discrimination criteria 3 2 Target participant code 4 2 Target discrimination criteria 4
- the computer 66 triggers, in a next step 105, a signal listener window received in response to the signaling developed. To do this, he runs a countdown counter, the duration of which is almost equal to the duration of the laser shot, of the order of a few hundred milliseconds, during which time he listens to the waves to make sure that no other detector target device did not detect the same laser shot.
- the calculator 66 finalizes the discrimination at the end of this listening window by applying to the signals received and to that elaborated the discrimination operation of the invention of the steps of the block 200.
- the outcome of the listening window can be obtained either when the countdown timer reaches zero or is triggered manually by a user.

- the computer 66 analyzes a signaling received in response to its elaborate signaling.
- This received signaling may comprise the same types of characteristics as those of the elaborate signaling.
- the computer 66 compares the characteristics of its signaling elaborated with those of the signaling received. If the characteristics of the received signaling are different from that of the elaborated signaling, the computer 66 rejects the signaling received from the discrimination. This received signaling is for example removed from the memory of the computer 66. If the characteristics of the signaling received are identical to those of the signaling elaborated, the computer stores said signaling received in step 109 in the data memory if it does not. is not already registered, at step 108.
- step 201 when the discrimination member is the computer 66, the latter applies to the signaling received and the signaling developed the discriminating operation of the invention.
- the steps of the block 200 allow the computer 66 to determine, from the signals received and recorded, whether the detected laser shot was intended for him or not according to values of discrimination criteria. This determination is made by means of a discriminating operation which is a combination which can be a sum, a maximum, a comparison or a logical operator.
- the discrimination member is the central computer
- the latter applies the discrimination operation of the invention to the signals received.
- it preferably prefers a signaling among those received.
- the discrimination member applies the discrimination operation to the values of discrimination criteria contained in the signaling.
- the discrimination criterion can be the power of the laser shot detected by the target device.
- the discrimination operation can be a maximum. The higher the detected power, the more the target device is privileged as the target.
- the discrimination criterion may also be based on the difference between the measured distance D transmitted by the laser shot and the actual distance calculated by the discrimination member. In this case, the discrimination operation may be a minimum. The smaller the gap, the more the target device is privileged as the target.
- the discrimination criterion is based on the difference between an impact point of the laser shot at the combat actor and a critical point of vulnerability of said actor to the combat previously defined.
- the discrimination operation may be a minimum. The smaller the gap, the more the target device is privileged as the target.
- the discrimination criteria mentioned above may be combined, thus making it possible to refine the identification of the target that must be considered as affected.
- the criteria of discrimination are not limited to those cited, other criteria of discrimination may be used.
- the discrimination member considers said target device 60 not to be hit by the shot.
- the discriminator can refine the result of the discriminating operation using other discrimination criteria such as the laser firing detection power.
- the discrimination member When, the difference between the point of impact of the laser firing and the critical point of vulnerability of one of the signalings issued by a target device is lower than the other differences of the other indications, the discrimination member considers said target device 60 as being the one hit by the shot.
- the computer 66 may optionally transmit a message comprising the result of the discrimination to the control circuit 13 of the firing simulator and / or to the central computer and / or to the other target devices having emitted the received signalings.
- the discriminator determines the consequences of the laser firing on the actor in combat of the target device selected in step 202. To do this, it calculates the destroyed character of the target device having the hit character. according to previously determined vulnerability criteria. Vulnerability criteria may include the area of impact of the laser shot, the number of shots and / or the vital functions.
- the destroyed character of the actor in combat can be obtained via a destruction percentage matrix able to convert a laser shot into a damage value.
- the destruction percentage matrix is obtained by simulation results or by experimental results via vulnerability criteria. It is specific to each type of actor in combat.
- the discriminator After extracting the value of damage, the discriminator calculates the percentage of life consumed by the actor in combat. To do this, it adds this damage value to those already recorded. If the result of the addition is less than 100%, the actor in combat is simply considered as hit otherwise he is considered destroyed.
- the discriminating body When the discriminating body considers as destroyed an actor in combat, then it emits, in step 204, an alarm activation signal 65 of the corresponding target device.
- the discrimination operation of the invention thus meets the need to reproduce operational combat scenarios as they occur in reality.
