Abstract

A method of multiple sensor processing includes receiving, at a first sensor system, track data from a second sensor system, comparing track data from the first sensor system to the track data from the second sensor system to determine if a track will be within a field of view of the first sensor system during a time period, determining, at a first sensor system, predicted quality of tracks based on the track data and broadcasting the predicted quality of tracks. The method also includes receiving predicted quality of tracks from the second sensor system and determining a first set of tasks based on the predicted quality of tracks determined by the first sensor system and the predicted quality of tracks received from the second sensor system.
