- Statement of Work for Solid-State Dual-Band Amplifier 1. SCOPE This statement of work defines the tasks, deliverables, and general goals for the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL} a Solid-State Dual-Band Amplifier that is capable of amplifying a radio frequency (RF) signal over the 4-40 GHz frequency range, and that has a single RF input over the 4-40 GHz range, and that has two RF outputs over the 4-40 GHz frequency range. Non-recurring design and analysis shall be conducted for the amplifier to meet the specifications that are described in "Specification for Solid-State Dual-Band Amplifier." This effort includes the delivery, at a Preliminary Design Review (PDR}, of a prototype high band amplifier that operates at the high band only. The prototype high band amplifier shall include a prototype dual-band driver that operates both at the high band, and at the low band. The contractor shall also deliver, at the PDR, design documents, and measured data, for the prototype high band amplifier, and for the prototype dual-band driver. The contractor shall also deliver, at the PDR, measured data for high band MMIC amplifiers, and for low band MMIC amplifiers, that are representative of those used to fabricate the prototype high band amplifier, and that are representative of those used to fabricate the prototype dual-band driver. The PDR shall be held no later than 12 months after contract award. This effort includes the delivery, at a Critical Design Review (CDR), of a prototype dual-band amplifier that operates both at the high band, and at the low band. The prototype dual-band amplifier shall operate as designed when driven by the prototype dual-band driver that was delivered at the PDR. This effort also includes the delivery of three (3) final dual-band amplifiers that operate both at the high band, and at the low band, and that each include a dual-band driver that operates both at the high band and at the low band. The contractor shall also deliver, at the CDR, design documents, and measured data, for the prototype dual­ band amplifier. The contractor shall also deliver, at the CDR, measured data for high band MMIC amplifiers, and for low band MMIC amplifiers, that are representative of those used to fabricate the prototype dual-band amplifier. The CDR shall be held no later than 18 months after contract award. This effort includes the delivery, by the end of the period of performance, of three (3), final dual-band amplifiers that meet all the requirements specified in "Specification for Solid-State Dual-Band Amplifier." The contractor shall also deliver, by the end of the period of performance, the final design documents, and measured data, for the final dual-band amplifiers.
