- Description
- This is a Sources Sought to be used for a market analysis and not for competitive proposals.� There is no solicitation available for this requirement and no award will be made from this notice.� This notice is to seek interested vendors with the capabilities to design, construct, install and test a new Air Route Surveillance Radar (ARSR) 4 replacement sail. Any interested party would have to provide company capabilities with past experience in the design, fabrication and installation of this or similar products. Past Experience should�be within the past 10 years but older experience will be considered. The components needed for the ARSR-4 antenna sail are the sail, vertical tower components, horizontal box beam components, required connectors, reference antenna, and reference antenna cable.� Drawing is attached for reference purposes only.� The ARSR-4 is a 3-D, long range, L band surveillance radar that provides search height and detection of small targets from 5.0 to 250 nmi. The radar antenna is an array-fed aperture composed of a parabolic reflector and feed array. There two configurations options: Configuration 1- includes the sail panels, vertical tower sections, connecting channels and spacers, reference antenna, reference cable, and hardware. Configuration 2 - includes configuration 1 plus the horizontal box beam sections, hardware, and the beacon mount assemblies. Receive Beams - The radar utilizes a phased array feed system and a reflector antenna that are housed in a radome.� The ARSR-4 antenna produces 9 receive beams.� In addition when in Circular Polarization (CP), the ARSR-4 produces 3 CP weather beams labeled Low, Medium, and High (L, M, and H). Transmit Beams - The ARSR-4 transmit beam consists of two fan beams, one for the lower elevation receive beams called Low Stack and one for the upper elevation beams called High Stack Frequency Operation - The unit shall be capable of operation within specified limits over the frequency range of 1215 to 1372 MHz. Attached drawings are for reference only.� All measurements are in inches unless otherwise specified. Offerors shall provide a Rough Order Magnitude (ROM) for the design, fabrication and testing of a new antenna. Please submit your capabilities along with past experience and a ROM to todd.butler@faa.gov
