We report on a systematics of fusion cross section data at energies above the reaction threshold to those of disappearance of fusion process. By an appropriate scaling of both cross sections and energy, a fusion excitation function common to all the data points is established. A universal description of the fusion excitation function relying on basic nuclear concepts is proposed and its dependence on the reaction cross section used for the cross section normalization is discussed.
