New VLBI systems are under development in many countries in preparation for large dedicated arrays, including orbiting radio telescopes to be launched in the 1990s. In particular, several new recording systems and correlators are being constructed: the VLBA in the U.S., the S2 in Canada, and the K4/VSOP in Japan. This paper reviews the issues of technical compatibility among these systems in an effort to facilitate global VLBI experiments.
