Abstract :
There is some confusion in terminology concerning the architectures and algorithms of air situation picture generation (ASPG). Therefore, two aspects concerning the ASPG are distinguished: the method of ASPG (single- or multi-radar tracking) and the concept (distributed or central) of ASPG within an air defense region, consisting of several control and reporting centers. The evolution from single-radar tracking to multi-radar tracking and from a distributed concept to a central concept is discussed.
