Abstract
The sensors of aircraft are necessity for mission performance and fusion process of data from them is applied for increase of mission efficiency and decrease of aircraft pilot workload. Data fusion is applied and developed to provide pilot a series of more processed data format about a specific target from sensors in aircraft. Military aircraft currently in operation are linked with a tactical data link such as Link-16 to display improved tactical situation to pilots to increase mission efficiency. By fusing the sensor data with improved accuracy obtained as the sensors' performance mounted on the aircraft become higher and the tactical situation information received through the tactical data link, it provides the pilot with a highly reliable tactical situation and mission environment, and expects efficient mission performance and high survivability. In this paper, a fusion architecture to produce fused data with realtime information from the sensors and data through a tactical data link is shown.
