- Description
- This is a sources sought request only, not a solicitation announcement. This is NOT a request for proposals or quotes and in no way obligates the Government to award any contract. The United States Coast Guard (USCG) Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) is conducting market research seeking antenna solutions to enable connectivity to the Iridium/Iridium NEXT network (L Band), and also provide Global Position System (GPS) (L1 and/or L2) connectivity. Iridium asset tracking, voice communications, and data transfer/connectivity are all capabilities that the USCG is potentially planning to incorporate into their aviation fleet: MH-65D/E, MH-60T, HC-130J/H, HC-144 and C-27J aircraft. USCG aviation utilizes a number of antenna solutions to access a wide variety of operating frequencies. All of these antennas require a mounting solution to the aircraft. The USCG is seeking information of any unique/flexible mounting solution to utilize existing mounting interfaces or antennas providing access to multiple frequency bands. The USCG is likely moving towards utilizing the Mobile User Objective System (MUOS) SATCOM network. An antenna solution allowing connectivity to L Band, GPS, and MUOS would be desirable. For reference USCG currently utilizes: •1616 - 1626.5 MHz for Iridium •L1 1228.60 MHz and L2 1575.42 MHz for GPS •243 - 380 MHz (planned for MUOS) When responding to this RFI, please include the following information: NOTE: THIS NOTICE WAS NOT POSTED TO FEDBIZOPPS ON THE DATE INDICATED IN THE NOTICE ITSELF (19-MAR-2019); HOWEVER, IT DID APPEAR IN THE FEDBIZOPPS FTP FEED ON THIS DATE. PLEASE CONTACT 877-472-3779 or fbo.support@gsa.gov REGARDING THIS ISSUE.
