<strong>Integrated</strong> <strong>Air</strong> <strong>Surveillance</strong> <strong>Concept</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Operations</strong><br />
Mode <strong>of</strong> Operation, Augmented: A mode <strong>of</strong> operation whereby the normal mode <strong>of</strong> operation<br />
is enhanced with additional capability, when special circumstances require. This augmented<br />
mode would also serve to mitigate degradation due to loss <strong>of</strong> facilities.<br />
Mode <strong>of</strong> Operation, Degraded: A mode <strong>of</strong> operation whereby a reduced level <strong>of</strong> capability<br />
results when some or all <strong>of</strong> the sensors, digital components, communication links, etc., are<br />
degraded due to either natural or manmade causes.<br />
Mode <strong>of</strong> Operation, Exercise: A mode <strong>of</strong> operation whereby the system is exercising scenarios.<br />
This mode is done for the training <strong>of</strong> operators, supervisors and managers in a realistic ―train as<br />
you fight‖ environment.<br />
Mode <strong>of</strong> Operation, Nominal: see Normal <strong>Operations</strong><br />
Mode <strong>of</strong> Operation, Off-Nominal: see Non-Normal <strong>Operations</strong><br />
Mode <strong>of</strong> Operation, Training: A mode <strong>of</strong> operation utilized for educating and training<br />
operators.<br />
Multilateration: The process involved in locating and tracking a target through computation <strong>of</strong><br />
the difference <strong>of</strong> time in the arrival <strong>of</strong> a signal emitted from the target to multiple receivers. (7)<br />
National <strong>Air</strong>space System: The common network <strong>of</strong> U.S. airspace including air navigation<br />
facilities, equipment, services, airports or landing areas, aeronautical charts,<br />
information/services, rules, regulations, procedures, technical information, manpower and<br />
material. Also, please see Domestic <strong>Air</strong> Space. (6), (7), (8), (29), (53)<br />
National <strong>Air</strong>space System Automation: An automated anomaly analysis algorithm that will<br />
precipitate anomaly alerts. In order to better identify potential threats and thereby prevent<br />
catastrophic events, the automation will detect and correlate anomalous travel patterns into a<br />
pr<strong>of</strong>ile. (1)<br />
Net-Centric Information Management Service: see Service<br />
Net-Centric <strong>Operations</strong>: An approach which allows for the integration <strong>of</strong> all existing and future<br />
surveillance inputs through a collection <strong>of</strong> self-synchronized networks. (10)<br />
Net-Centricity: A robust, globally interconnected network environment in which data and<br />
information are shared in a timely and consistent manner among users, applications and<br />
platforms. (8)<br />
Network Enabled Architecture: Computational architecture utilizing net-centric operations.<br />
