SOSA and VITA Working Together for Next-Gen Defense Systems
April 14, 2022
SOSA is designed to improve sub-system reconfigurability, upgradability, and re-use and to shorten cycle times to counter emerging threats in SIGINT, radar EW and communications applications.
The SOSA hardware standard draws primarily from OpenVPX and other related VITA standards. The new technologies, topologies and environmental requirements critical to meeting SOSA objectives must be supported by extensions to these VITA standards. This paper is an overview of the SOSA and VITA organizations and how they interact, along with the challenges, successful strategies, and illustrative examples.
This article describes the advantages of open-loop sensors over closed-loop current sensors. Examples of LEM and Honeywell open-loop sensors are described.
Chemiresistive sensors provide a low-cost means of measuring concentrations of a wide range of gases in applications such as industrial control, HVAC systems, and health and safety...
