The Expanding Role of Sensor Fusion

James L. Farrell

Abstract:	In marked contrast to the modest data rates involved with nav update, the fusion of image sensor responses requires extraction of information from data streams of several megabyteslsec. The need for thics operation arises primarily in situations wherein large numbers of objects (many of which are extraneous) respond to the sensors, and the responses are not readily dtitinguishable (e.g., no Mode S). Air-to-Ground operations are particularly demanding, due to potentially huge density of sensor responses. An introductory overview k presented here, with no claims of originality.
