It is generally used for the period in the summer of 1940 when the German air force (Luftwaffe) tried to destroy British air power. This was important for Germany as they would then have felt powerful enough to invade Britain. The Germans under Herman Goering thought they had built an air force which would easily be able to overcome the British, but they didn't realise how good the British planes and pilots were. By the end of September 1940, the Germans realised they were not winning and plans to invade Britain were shelved.
Of course bombing of Britain continued, but only by night, and therefore not so effectively. At that time there were no means of fighter planes being able to find planes in the air at night. Airborne radar was developed later in the war.
