Description

The intent of this RFI is to identify sources that can provide Position, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) instrumentation systems for measuring performance of small (?50 Lbs) Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV) operating in the non-line of site and indoor test environment.� ATC conducts unmanned test missions in the former Army Pulse Radiation Facility (APRF), which provides a subterranean and non-line of site mission area without Global Positioning System (GPS) service.� Instrumentation are required to unobtrusively mount on test assets and accurately track and report the position of small unmanned and robotic test assets in these challenging environments for the purposes of test and evaluation.� This RFI is focused on identifying instrumentation to satisfy MAJOR TEST INSTRUMENTATION PROGRAM ROBOTICS/UNMANNED AUTONOMOUS SYSTEMS (RUAS) instrumentation requirements for indoor testing of small UGVs with regard to precise real-time tracking of systems operating on range; instrumentation that meets the strict SWaP requirements to enable unobtrusive placement onboard the variety of autonomous systems under test; Tools to reduce and visualize unique autonomous data sets.� Collateral goal is to build a qualified list of commercial PNT instrumentation with Size, Weight, and Power (SWAP) characteristics suitable for onboard test and measurement of small unmanned systems operating in conditions similar to these test environments at remote locations.
