Read Abstract +

Designing sensors using Open Architecture (OA) principles enables interoperability and reduces the cost of procuring sensors by permitting a sensor be built by multiple vendors instead of only one. The Sensor Open Sensor Architecture™ (SOSA) Consortium is a consensus-based community of government and industry partners working together to develop the next generation of sensors that have a well-defined set of interfaces for software, hardware, and electro-mechanical components. In total, the SOSA Technical Standard is applicable to any one of the five sensor types (or combination): radar (RADAR), electro-optical (EO/IR), signal intelligence (SIGINT), communications (COMMS), and electronic warfare (EW). The ability of the SOSA Technical Standard to be a pointer to five different sensor types is what sets it apart from other standards available today. Many standards suffer from being application/platform specific, relevant to only one sensor type, and locked to a particular vendor. The SOSA Consortium combats this problem by focusing on being platform, vendor, and sensor agnostic. This paper provides examples of how a sensor system can be designed using the concepts and technologies defined in the SOSA Technical Standard in order to escape the proverbial vendor event horizon
