SALIENT CHARACTERISTICS - RF Vector Signal Generator: Operational Frequency Range: 40 GHz Frequency Resolution: <.001 Hz Output Impedance: 50 Ohms VSWR: <1.75 @ 2000 MHz to 2400 MHz, <2 @ 22.5 GHz to 27.5 GHz, 0 dBm leveled pwer Amplitude Resolution: <.01 dB Amplitude Error: <.5 dB @ 2000 MHz to 2400 MHz, <1.1 dB @ 22.5 GHz to 27.5 GHz Frequency Reference: Internal and External 10 MHz (50 ohm input and output) Triggering: External, Single, Stepped and Free Run Spectral Purity: Harmonics <-30 dBc, Sub Harmonics <-60 dBc Noise floor: <-130 dBc Other functions are listed below: Capable of interruption free monotonic amplitude sweep of 30 dB with at least.01 dB step resolution and dwell times from at least 1 ms to 60 s.; Internal Baseband Generator Specifications: >1 Gsample memory; 160 MHz RF Bandwidth;Predefined ready to use modulation waveforms: BPSK, QPSK, OQPSK, 16/32QAM,8/16PSK; Configurable Digital transmit filter: LAN Interface with remote SCPI commanding; Adjustable signal to noise control using an internal AWGN source; Primary Power uses 110 VAC @ 60 Hz and draws <10 amps. SALIENT CHARACTERISTICS - RF Signal Analyzer: Operational Frequency Range: 67 GHz Frequency Resolution: <.001 Hz Frequency Reference Accuracy: <5 x 10-9 SSB Phase Noise: <-90 dBc @ 10 Hz, 15 dBm Displayed average noise level:<-140 dBm Measurement level uncertainty:<1.7 dB Triggering: External, Single, Stepped and Free Run Frequency Reference: Internal and External 10 MHz (50 ohm input and output) Other functions are listed below: External LO for use with external harmonic mixers to achieve increased operational frequency range; Calibrated IF output for use with digital o-scope to achieve increased analysis bandwidths; Must also have the capability to calibrate the 2 units as a system; Measurement applications: Multi tone group delay for use with VSG; Phase noise; Noise figure; Vector Signal Analysis for digitally modulated signals: BPSK, QPSK, Offset-QPSK, DQPSK, 8PSK, D8PSK, /4-DQPSK, /8-8PSK, /8-D8PSK,16QAM, 32QAM, 64QAM, 128QAM, 256QAM, 512QAM, 1024QAM, 2048QAM, 4096QAM; Error Vector Magnitude; Modulation error ratio; Magnitude and Phase Error; Bit Error Rate of known sequences; IQ offset; IQ imbalance; Gain imbalance; Quadrature Error; Amplitude droop; Carrier Frequency Error; Pulse analysis; Analogue Modulation analysis; Nonlinear distortion analysis; LAN Interface with remote SCPI commanding; Primary Power uses 110 VAC @ 60 Hz and draws; <10 amps RF Test and Measurement Instruments as a System It is desired to have only 2 commercially available off the shelf (COTS) components that work as a standalone VSG and SA. There are however measurements that may require the 2 instruments to interact. For example the multi tone group delay measurement will require a source (the VSG) and receiver (the SA). For all measurements that require more than one piece of equipment to work as a system the entire system must be capable of a single calibration routine. NASA/GRC intends to purchase the items from Rohde & Schwartz, 6821 Benjamin Franklin Drive; Columbia, MD 21046 as they are the authorized dealer to meet all the specifications required for the RF Vector Signal Generator and Signal Analyzer. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on July 6, 2015. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/p ub_library/Omb.html.
