10 -- COMMUNICATION RECEIVER SIMULATOR - SOURCES SOUGHT POC Wendell Raum, Contract Specialist, phone (301) 342-1830; ext. 140, FAX (301) 342-1864/1847. SOURCES SOUGHT for a simulator to emulate foreign communication receivers, consisting of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware and specialized digital signal processing (DSP) programming. The communications receiver simulator hardware shall have the following attributes: (a) be re-programmable; (b) support real-time operation; (c) provide RF pathways for real communication systems to operate simultaneously with the simulated entities; and (d) emulate the majority of analog and digital communication techniques. The Government prefers equipment proven to be highly reliable and easily maintainable. The communication receiver simulator software is considered to be its most critical component. This software shall include: (a) the ability to translate intelligence data to DSP algorithms; and (b) the ability to support real-time operations. Potential sources should note that work in this area will require security access to highly classified intelligence data. The simulator is to support the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division's (NAWCAD's) Air Combat Environment Test & Evaluation Facility's (ACETEF's) Communications, Navigation and Identifiication Laboratory. This request is for informational literature (e.g., technical data, schematics, part numbers, estimated costs, etc.) ONLY AT NO COST TO THE U.S. NAVY. Please provide responses by 15 April 1996 to Mr. James Harris (Code 5.1.6.3), Mail Stop 3, Building 2109, NAWCAD, Patuxent River, MD 20670-5304, phone (301) 342-6414. (0064)
