- Description
- I.SUBJECT: Request for Information (RFI) for the software development of moving vehicle classification and man-sized moving target detection modes for the STARLite Synthetic Aperture Radar / Ground Moving Target Indicator (SAR/GMTI). a.The US Army Program Executive Office Intelligence, Electronic Warfare & Sensors (PEO IEW&S) in support of Product Manager Robotics and Unmanned Sensors (PdM RUS) is conducting a market survey to identify sources capable of developing GMTI vehicle classification and man-sized target detection modes for the STARLite radar. This development will not require any changes to the STARLite hardware; only software development approaches will be considered. b.The new modes for the STARLite system will provide the Brigade Combat Team and Division/Corps battlefield commander with the capability to detect man-sized targets and classify vehicles as wheeled or tracked. c.The STARLite production contractor is Northrop Grumman Electronic Systems (NGES), Linthicum, MD. The Government does not have the existing software source code to provide to a third party or the technical data package for the system. II.STARLite vehicle classification and man-sized target detection performance requirements: a.GMTI Vehicle Classification i.Probability of Classification: Provide at least a 70% GMTI probability of classification (wheeled versus tracked) during a single-scan out to a minimum of 10 km. b.GMTI Man-Sized Target Detection i.Slant Range: Operate out to a minimum of 10 km and detect 85% of targets with a minimum detectable velocity of 0.5 m/s at all look angles for a Standard Man-Sized Moving Target (0.5m2 RCS) ii.Target Location Error (TLE): The man-sized target detection mode shall have geolocation accuracy, with Circular Error Probable (CEP) of 50 percent, to 50m at a slant range of 10km. c.Flight Profile for performance requirements i.Air Vehicle Ground Speeds less than or equal to 31 m/s. ii.AV operational flight-altitudes from 10,000 ft above ground level (AGL) up to an altitude equal to the lower of 25,000 ft AGL and 29,000 ft MSL d.Data Formats: i.Target reports shall be in accordance with North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Standardization Agreement (STANAG) 4607 ii.Exporting and Storage of data standards including but not limited to STANAG 4607 iii.Command and Control (C2) message interfaces shall be in accordance with North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Standardization Agreement (STANAG) 4586 III.Responders are requested to provide: a.A technical approach to meeting all of the above requirements for a STARLite system. b.Qualified vendors must provide costs & schedule for the development of the GMTI vehicle classification and man-sized target detection modes. IV.Submission: a.Respondents are requested to submit one electronic copy with "SAR/GMTI Vehicle Classification Man-Sized Detection" in the subject line to Stephen Antunes at stephen.antunes@us.army.mil and Kim Koch at kim.d.koch@us.army.mil b.Respondents are requested to submit one hard copy to: PM RUS ATTN: Kim Koch Bldg 6006, B2-133, Combat Drive Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD 21005 c.Written responses shall be submitted within seven (7) days of announcement. There is a 5MB email limit. Responses shall be limited to no more than 10 pages in length, to include the cover. All RFI responses should include a non-proprietary cover page, which includes your company name, technical point of contact, and contact information. This market survey is not a request for competitive proposals. Capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of conducting market research. Responses will be evaluated for their viability. The determination of procurement strategy, based upon the responses to this market survey, is solely within the discretion of the government. All sources may submit a response, which will be considered by the government. This market survey is for information and planning purposes only, does not constitute a solicitation for bids or proposals, and is not to be construed as a commitment by the government. The government will not pay for any effort expended in response to this market survey. Incremental and follow-on submission may be accepted upon request by email to stephen.antunes@us.army.mil and kim.d.koch@us.army.mil.
