Abstract

Display subsystem is an important part of command, control, communication and intelligence(C31) system. The display used in C31 system for air defence should provide a panoramic view of thecomplete air segment under its command and control in real-time. The necessary information requiredfor taking a quick decision should be available to the commander in easily understandable graphicformat This paper describes salient features of the display known as synthetic radar situation display(SRSD) developed by the Defence Electronics Research Laboratory (DLRL), Hyderabad, for such applications
