The Role of Automated Sensing, Information Fusion, Situation Assessment, and Decision Aiding Methods in Assisting Civil Defense Activities

Abstract

Great strides have been made in helping ensure the safety of commercial aircraft operating in controlled airspace across most parts of the globe. Recent investigations into existing avionics systems available to General Aviation aircraft suggests that there are cost effective solutions tothe issues of providing comparable levels of security to the wide range of aircraft operating in very different flight regimes. This paper identifies some of the potential solutions to aircraft operating in unauthorized regions.
