- Description
- The Air Force Flight Test Center, Directorate of Contracting, Edwards Air Force Base California, intends to award a sole source commercial purchase order to Nova Engineering. This acquisition is for MMD44 Hypermod with adaptive equalizer. The units are used for the integration of Advanced Range Telemetry (ARTM) developed products into the Edwards Air Force Base telemetry acquisition systems and airborne instrumentation ground stations. Nova Engineering is the only identified source able to provide MMD44 Hypermod with the capability to demodulate Inter Range Instrumentation Group (IRIG) 106 Tier 0 Pulse Code Modulation/Frequency Modulation (PCM/FM), Tier I Shaped Offset Quadrature Phase Shift Keying-Telemetry Group (SOQPSK-TG) and Tier II Advanced Range Telemetry-Continuous Phase Modulation (ARTM-CPM) waveforms. The demodulators will be integrated into the AFFTC telemetry acquisition systems to provide hardware that supports the use of spectrally efficient modulated waveforms and improves the utilization of current legacy waveforms. The unit shall be able to demodulate Pulse Code Modulation/ Frequency Modulation (PCM/FM) waveforms, Shaped Offset Quadrature Phase-Shift Keying-Telemetry Group (SOQPSK-TG) waveforms IRIG 106, and Advanced Range Telemetry Continuous Phase Modulation (ARTM CPM) waveforms per IRIG 106. The demodulator shall include an integrated bit synchronizer. In the PCM/FM mode, the demodulator shall provide at least a 2.5 dB improvement in detection efficiency compared to traditional PCM/FM per IRIG 106. The demodulator must be able to support data rates up to 20 Mbps in all three modes. The demodulator shall operate with 20 MHz and 70 MHz IF Inputs. The demodulator shall include a real-time signal quality display. The demodulator shall include an adaptive equalizer to mitigate the effects of multi-path on all three waveforms. The demodulator shall have separate I and Q test outputs for monitoring purposes. The demodulator shall be computer controllable via RS232/422 interface. The North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) is 334220 and the size standard is 750. The demodulator must be compatible in form, fit and function, with Nova Engineering MMD44 Hypermod. Interested organizations must have an already demonstrated product and may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing. Contractor must be registered with Central Contractor Registration to be eligible for contact award or payment from any DOD activity. Information on registration and annual confirmation requirements may be obtained by calling 1-888-227-2423, or via the Internet at http://www.ccr.gov. All responsible sources may submit a response, which if timely received, will be considered by the AFFTC. Contact: Ronda M. Satori at the Air Force Flight Test Center, Directorate of Contracting, 5 South Wolfe Avenue, Edwards AFB, CA, 93524, by September 07, 2004 by Tel: 661-277-7586, Fax: 661-275-7824, or email ronda.satori@edwards.af.mil. This NOTICE OF CONTRACTING ACTION (NOCA) is for notification purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation for bids or proposals. The Government does not intend to pay for any information provided under this synopsis.
