New Concept of Operations Document Details Integration Scenarios for Advanced Defense Systems

Washington, DC, 24 September 2025 – The Wireless Innovation Forum’s (WInnForum) Software Defined Systems Committee today announced the release of a technical report providing a comprehensive Concept of Operations (CONOPS) for integrating Software Communications Architecture (SCA) compliant waveform applications within ecosystems designed under the Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA®) Technical Standard. This initiative is crucial for enhancing military communication systems through improved interoperability. The project was chaired by Kevin Richardson of MITRE.

“This new technical report is a significant step forward in ensuring seamless interoperability between SCA and SOSA standards,” says Sarvpreet Singh of Viavi Solutions, the Software Defined Systems Committee chair. “By detailing the functional operation and providing concrete CONOPS scenarios, we are enabling the stakeholders of the military community to leverage the full potential of both architectures for enhanced communication systems.”

Call for participation is now open in WInnForum's New Transceiver Conformance Project

WASHINGTON, DC, UNITED STATES, July 30, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Wireless Innovation Forum (WInnForum) announces an open call for participation in its new Transceiver Conformance Work Group after a successful kick-off meeting 30 July. Per the group’s charter, the goal is to develop a conformance specification that complements the WINNF Transceiver Facility (WINNF-TS-0008).

“A specification is only as good as its completeness, clarity, and verifiability” says Sarvpreet Singh of Viavi Solutions, the Software Defined Systems Committee chair. “The WInnForum spearheaded the efforts to define the WInnForum Transceiver Facility in the past with contributions from major organizations across the globe. However, there has always been a need to verify the conformance of that specification. The members of the WInnForum Working group are again leading the efforts to define the Conformance Specification for the WInnForum Transceiver Facility adopted by SDR Manufacturers and other RF Users that can be used for testing by procurement agencies and test and evaluation labs".
