Sensor fusion applications are particularly difficult if a sensor pod is located remotely relative to the sensor fusion engine. In applications where weight, bandwidth, or electro-magnetic interference are a problem, putting the sensor data onto a single high-speed fiber optic link is desired. This tech note describes how the new ARINC 818 protocol can be used to time multiplex three different sensor outputs onto a single fiber for transmission to the sensor fusion processing engine. ARINC 818 is a new video interface and protocol standard developed for high bandwidth, low latency
