- Description
- ***UPDATE*** The required due date for propsals has been extended from 1500 on 8 OCT 21 to 1500 on 27 OCT 21. Offerors shall contact the POC outlined herein with any questions.� ***END UPDATE*** Naval Research Lab has a requirement for research and development (R&D) in support of�Precise Antennas Narrow-beam Transmitting Highly Energized Radiation (PANTHER). This solicitation is being issued as a small business set-aside. Proposals are due no later than 3:00PM EST, 8 October 2021. This requirement continues the next phase of research and implementation of prototyped development in signal generation techniques across the radio frequency spectrum employing high levels of power. The Contractor shall refine and implement the techniques, hardware (HW), and software (SW) based upon the prototypes developed and evaluated in the previous contract. These signal generation techniques shall be employed for atmospheric research and spacecraft and/or aircraft calibration.�The Contractor shall continue the research signal generation techniques across the frequency spectrum, with various signal parameters which shall include, but may not be limited to, pulse-widths, pulse repetition intervals, and EIRPs. These pulses shall be turned into radio frequency (energy that shall be transmitted in very narrow beams at extremely high power levels from large (greater than 55 foot) Navy owned, custom-designed apertures, to precisely target centimeter-sized components. There shall be no allowance for signal spillage either to another component on the targeted vehicle or to other vehicles in proximity to the target. The Contractor shall also research, design and develop, and modify associated software and hardware combinations needed to generate the most efficient signals for use with the Navy�s space and airborne assets. All of these requirement and additional requirements are detailed in the attached RFP and attachments. Offerors are hereby notified the opportunity to submit questions in response to this RFP are due to the Contract Specialist no later than�1 September�2021.
