Tactical Forward Area Surveillance and Control Internetting Study. Volume II. Technical Details.
Abstract
This volume describes in detail the analyses and results of a study of an automated, netted tactical forward area air surveillance and control system concept that has potential for operating in the complex tactical air environment of the near future. The three study tasks can be summarized as follows: (1) define and analyze alternative system configurations to determine the tradeoffs, with emphasis on the different possible locations for performing the various tracking functions. Define the data processing and communications loads for each configuration; (2) describe the real-time data processing functions to be performed, and recommend solutions to any problem areas. Functions to be considered in detail include track initiation, association (correlation) of measurements with tracks, association of tracks with tracks, and track filtering; and (3) define requirements on the information that must be provided by the radars to support an automated netted surveillance system.
