Leveraging the SOSA™ Architecture to Enable AI Solutions for EW/ISR Applications

January 27, 2021

As AI becomes more pervasive in computing solutions, it’s only natural that it would become part of the conversation when discussing the implementations within the world of SOSA. This webinar examines how it is being designed into SOSA modules, with a specific focus on RF and AI solutions.

Elma’s expert was joined by speakers from partners Concurrent Technologies and EIZO Rugged to discuss in-depth how different components of a modular open architecture system can deliver convincing AI solutions – where do GPGPUs excel along with their software options; what advantages do CPU and FPGA designs have in AI, and what challenges can occur when integrating a system aligned to SOSA to meet the inevitable cooling challenges. 

A deeper dive will discuss how the Expansion Plane is used for PCIe GPGPU solutions, how accelerators can be implemented on FPGA-enabled plug-in cards (PICs), examine the architecture topologies are needed to select the right backplane, and review the heat dissipation required in an integrated subsystem. Specific target applications are also addressed.
