Abstract: In this paper, we consider a frequency assignment problem occurring in a military context. The main originality of the problem pertains to its dynamic dimension: new communications requiring frequency assignments need to be established throughout a battlefield deployment. The problem resolution framework decomposes into three phases: assignment of an initial kernel of communications, dynamic assignment of new communication links and a repair process when no assignment is possible. Different solution methods are proposed and extensive computational experiments are carried out on realistic instances.
