SOSA UPDATE JUNE 2023

The SOSA Update bimonthly E-newsletter from the editorial staff of militaryembedded.com covers the news, blogs, columns, feature articles, videos, podcasts, and more on the activities of the Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) Consortium, via the Military Embedded Systems collaboration with The Open Group, who manages the consortium, and the SOSA Outreach Committee. The SOSA Consortium enables government and industry to collaboratively develop open standards and best practices to enable, enhance and accelerate the deployment of affordable, capable, interoperable sensor systems.

IAN FERGUSON, LYNX SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGIES
 
Lynx Software Technologies and RTI have successfully worked together for over two decades, with a wide range of industry design wins and use cases. As we reflect back over those years, we have found three challenges our joint customers face that Lynx and RTI address, which when combined deliver immense benefits to the creators of connected mission-critical systems.

RODGER HOSKING, MERCURY SYSTEMS
 
As technologies evolve, government defense organizations steadily evolve electronic warfare (EW) solutions to counteract and then surpass capabilities of their adversaries by leapfrogging each other in an ongoing mission imperative to maintain dominance. Essential functions of EW systems are acquiring RF [radio frequency] signals of interest and then performing the required signal-processing tasks to deliver an effective response. This fosters new technologies and architectures that boost performance levels in both operations.

DAN TAYLOR, TECHNOLOGY EDITOR
 
In the defense industry, the right choice of technology can be a game changer, affecting everything from mission readiness to the tactical capabilities of our armed forces. One critical choice that often faces defense contractors is the selection between different standards for embedded systems.
