2 System Description
The Urban Training Package is a upgrade kit to facilitate instrumented
tactical urban training and enable instrumented players to be tracked
inside buildings where normally they cannot receive a GPS signal. The
package permits the simulation of indirect and direct fires on building
occupants taking in to account varying levels of structural ballistic
protection.
3
The system is designed for tactical urban training, typically up to
company level. At the tactical level, instrumented players are depicted
centrally in the room they occupy but not exactly where within the
room. An instrumented urban exercise is viewed via the Command
and Control C2 computer console in real time or in the AAR replay.
The exercise map/aerial photo of the urban training area in the C2
node requires a 2D or 3D depiction of the site buildings to be loaded.
The Urban Training Package is made up of three primary devices:
• Structural Information Device (SID)
• Room Association Device (RAD)
• Structure Effects Simulator (SES)
Structural Information Device (SID)
The SID is a short range radio device that is used to transmit
programmed building characteristics to instrumented players in the
vicinity prior to them entering the building. The Personnel Detection
Device (PDD) worn by a player receives data from the SID regarding
the following:
• Synthetic GPS positions of rooms, stair wells and corridors
• The ballistic protection of each room or zone for simulated indirect
or direct fires
4
A SID is placed in each building of interest in an urban exercise where
players are required to be tracked. A SID is programmed with the
building characteristics via a software Building Setup Tool loaded in to
a laptop and data transfer device called a WLN Adapter. Setup
information is contained in Chapter 4.
Room Association Device (RAD)
The RAD is used to identify which room or zone an instrumented
player has entered. It sends out a unique optical code to the PDD and
this data is compared with the stored SID data to establish which room
or zone the player is in. RADs are programmed with their location ID
via the Building Setup Tool.

Structure Effects Simulator (SES)
The SES is a device to enable the simulation of direct fire weapons
effects simulators (DFWES) on building occupants in primary and
secondary rooms. This enables for example an instrumented sniper in
an up stairs room to be suppressed by a TWGSS or MILES 120mm
main gun engagement.

4 Setup
The player field position is based on a GPS receiver. The WinExcon
Building Setup Tool provides the player with additional data when
inside or adjacent to a building in situations when signals from the
GPS-satellites are unavailable or not reliable. The GPS position for
each room or part of a (larger) room will instead be communicated to
the player system from the added Urban Training package. This
enables the player system to react independently to AWES in the
same way as for outdoor positions. Once the player leaves the house
and has a good GPS-signal again the GPS receiver is used to position
the player. Hence the positioning technique is seamlessly integrated in
the player. The Room Association Function is implemented by Room
Association Devices (RAD) and Structure Information Devices (SID).
8
To perform Setup of the system, necessary required GPS information
and room attributes, has to be provided for chosen structure and
rooms.
The required information for each structure is:
• Reference point for each structure (GPS coordinates).
• RAF prio area for each structure (coordinates for P1 - P4). A
selected area, where the GPS is not allowed to override the Room
Association Function, when leaving building due to risk of bad GPS
coverage.
The required information for each room is:
• Relative position (north, east and altitude)
• AWES Protection (0-100%)
• Wall type (for example concrete, brick or wood)
• Room attributes (Confined Space, non Confined Space or outdoor)
