New standard defines modular open systems approach (MOSA) for architecting deployed sensor processing systems.

The Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) seeks to ensure rapid upgrades and technology insertion, no vendor lock, and accommodation of existing standards.

One of the main benefits of Modular Open Systems Approach is leveraging common standards to ensure interoperability between sensors and systems.

Backed by broad support from government and industry, the release of SOSA Technical Standard 1.0 promises a new era of open standards-based system integration with flexibility and interoperability as its hallmarks.

The paper, entitled “Applying Open Standard Electronic Architectures for Ground Vehicles,” provided an in-depth introduction and overview of the advantages of MOSA open architecture solutions and the best practices for bringing new capabilities to ground vehicles.

Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) expertise is a key characteristic of the team Raytheon Technologies is putting together to support development of the U.S. Army’s Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node (TITAN) program.

Curtiss-Wright’s Defense Solutions division, a trusted, proven supplier of rugged modular open systems approach (MOSA) solutions, announced its participation on the Raytheon Technologies (NYSE: RTX) team to support the development of the U.S. Army’s Tactical.

The advent of unmanned systems reflects a huge aspect of warfare – that of protecting the warfighter – through the development of platforms that can be operated by humans from a distance, keeping them out of harm’s way.
