58 -- RADAR, DOWNCONVERTER(S)/IF RECEIVER SOL N00163-96-SS04 DUE 020896 POC Contact Point, David M. Barry, (317)306-3660, Contracting Officer, C. William Borders, (317)306-3623, Additional Contact, Fax: D. Barry, (317)306-3066 This is a market survey requesting information to satisfy a requirement for a radar downconverter(s)/IF Receiver covering the radio frequencies of 7.5 - l0.0 GHz and 14.0 - 17.0 GHz. This item will be used in a US Navy airborne, 20 inch diameter podded, electronic countermeasure system. The Navy intends to investigate availability of qualified sources that have a commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) or non-developmental item (NDI) that can be used in a cost effective manner. Potential vendors must have a radar downcoverter(s)/IF Receiver assembly that meets the following criteria: a) Provide RF frequency conversion to an IF frequency between 60-400 MHz, b) Provide two-three matched channels of linear and logarithmic amplification, c) Have integral received signal limiting automatic frequency control, automatic gain control and sensitivity time controlalong with single/dual channel phase detection for monopulse operation, and, d) Operate with a magnetron pulsed radar system with variable pulse widths from 0.1to 2.0 usec at peak powers greater than 100kW. Responding parties should provide a description of their proposed hardware, identify its present utilization, status of production, qualification, lead time, and production cost predicated upon an initial procurement of 4-8engineering models beginning in FY-98. Only written responses will be accepted as this market survey is for informational and planning purposes only and does notconstitute a request for bids or proposals and is not to be construed as a commitment by the government nor does the government intend to pay for any expense incurred by any of the respondent to this market survey.
