Abstract

Network centric warfare combines sensors, communications, and computation systems with tactics, techniques and procedures to provide battlespace awareness. An element of this awareness is the ability to identify friendly combat entities, known as combat identification (CID). This paper describes current technologies used in combat identification and defines technology groups that will play a role in both current and future CID implementation.
