This notice is being issued as a Request for Quotations (RFQ) for a Radio Frequency (RF) Test Instrumentation suite. The U.S. Army Aeroflightdynamics Directorate (AFDD) which operates out of NASA Ames Research Center (ARC) requires an RF parameter performance and spectrum measurement instrumentation equipment suite which must have a level of measurement quality, integration, portability, and ruggedness such that the instrumentation can be effectively utilized within the operational constraints of the T2000 Telemetry Trailer, as well as, the power, volume, portability, and mass constraints of in-flight, in-field portable, and ground based RF telemetry, research, and operational system environments. Equipment operation, data format, and analysis tools require compatibility with existing RF instrumentation for aggregation of equipment and exchange of data sets and analysis products required for joint operations. The equipment must support the following salient characteristics: - Highly integrated form factor and operational features consistent with mass, volume, power, and ruggedness constraints associated with flight and field portable use environments. - Specifications and measurements quality equivalent to bench instruments. - Highly integrated equipment and analysis suite including Vector Network Analyzer (VNA), Spectrum Analyzer, Vector Voltmeter, RF Power Meter, Interference Analyzer, Channel Scanner, AM/FM/PM Protocol Analyzer/Demodulator, and GPS based antenna coverage mapping. - Remote control, interface, and data access utilizing Ethernet. - Ability to store, share, and restore settings, measurements, and analysis results internally and through external media utilizing Ethernet and USB Delivery to NASA Ames Research Center is required no later than 30 days after contract award.
