Naval ISR Fusion Principles, Operations and Technologies

Книга на английском языке.
With its unique focus on advanced approaches to naval intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) and the critical underlying technologies needed to empower distributed maritime operations (DMO), this book provides a complete discussion of the operational requirements for current and future naval applications. Readers will find sufficient details to enable the design and development of technical solutions to achieve advanced information fusion as well as command and control concepts. The book approaches distributed naval operations and the role of ISR by applying advanced technologies and addressing future conflicts, providing naval officers and engineers with the information needed to plan and develop advanced systems. This is a great resource for anyone in the ISR, intelligence, space, antisubmarine warfare, electronic warfare, and surface warfare disciplines who are looking for an in-depth understanding of advanced ISR operations and technologies.
