- Description
- Innovative Space Based Radar Antenna Technology (ISAT) Space Experiments. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has designated the Air Force Research Laboratory Space Vehicles Directorate (AFRL/VS) to execute the ISAT Demonstration System flight experiment program. AFRL/VS is requesting proposals (technical and cost) in response to this Broad Agency Announcement (BAA). The objective of this BAA is the system design and risk reduction activities of the ISAT flight demonstration system through Preliminary Design Review (PDR) only. The ISAT flight demonstration system will demonstrate in a realistic space environment (specific orbit based on proposals received) the key risk reduction technologies that are critical to the development and fielding of an objective Space Based Radar (SBR) system capable of providing tactical-grade Ground Moving Target Indication (GMTI) from a medium earth orbit (MEO). Key demonstration technologies include space-capable structural materials, mechanisms for the deployment and control of large apertures, and calibration and compensation across structures several hundred meters in length for coherent transmit beam forming. This effort shall include system design, system trade studies; trade studies quantifying linkage and relevance to the ISAT objective system goals; design, development, fabrication, integration and test of prototypes for ground and space evaluation; and the design for a dedicated space experiment. Refer to the attachments for additional information regarding requirements and proposal preparation instructions.
