The authors describe challenges and issues in achieving an integrated sensor suite. PAVE PACE is an initiative in a system avionics for the 21st century. One facet of the program is to explore the integration and architectural concepts that current sensor subsystems are driving towards and assess how future technologies will enable integrated sensor suites to become a reality. The operational requirements that are necessitating the integration, the architectural concepts, and the technologies that need to be exploited to achieve such systems are described.
