PURCHASE DESCRIPTION: 1.0: DEFINITION. 1.1 The FM Microwave communication system shall be capable of simplex or duplex transmission with any one of three different data streams or a composite analog signal. The three required data rates are 1) DS-1 to DS-2, 2) DSA or 3) DS-3. The composite analog signal contains: 1) a NTSC video signal, 2) a narrow band audio channel, and 3) an analog representation of a T-1 data signal. The microwave communication system shall be capable of operating in the 14.4 - 15.2 GHZ frequency band. 1.2 The microwave transmitter and receiver terminals shall be housed in portable, ruggedized enclosures. Two-foot parabolic antennas shall be mountable on air masts. The microwave terminal enclosures should be mountable in EIA standard 19-inch equipment racks removed from the antenna system up to a distance of 40 feet. Each microwave terminal must be housed in a single ruggedized enclosure for the transmitter and a single ruggedized enclosure for the receiver. 2.0: PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS 2.1 Existing commercial off-the-shelf equipment and software shall be used to the greatest extent possible when meeting the following general performance characteristics. 2.2 The microwave terminal equipment shall have built-in test equipment circuitry that allows for the nondisruptive test of equipment parameters. It shall indicate equipment faults and provide control of equipment functions and tests. 2.3 All equipment shall be able to operate from plug-in AC power sources. When AC powered, the input AC power shall be 105-130 volts or 210-250 volts AC at 45-430Hz. Maximum power consumption for a transmitter or receiver terminal shall not exceed 95 watts. 2.4 The FM microwave system shall be rapidly and continuously tunable across the full 14GHz band (i.e. 14.4 to 15.2Ghz) in the field without the use of any external equipment. The ability to change frequencies and be continuously tunable across the full 14Ghz band in 1 GHz steps is mandatory. Preset channelized tuning is not acceptable. Co-located transmitters/receivers shall be able to operate with a minimum of 100Mhz separation between operating frequencies. 2.5 Transmitter power output shall be at a minimum of 1.0 watts. Frequency stability for the transmitter shall be at least 0.002% or better. 2.6 Receiver noise figure shall be no greater than 7.0 db with an RF filter provided. Frequency stability in the receiver terminal shall be a least 0.002% or better. 2.7 The microwave equipment shall have the ability to transmit/receive digital or analog information. The three different required digital data rates are: 1) DS-1 to DS-2, 2) DSA and 3) DS-3. The microwave terminal must accommodate the three different mission data types by rapid reconfiguration of the terminal using front access plug-in modules. When configured as a digital system, the microwave system shall be capable of transmitting a DS-3 digital signal with a threshold of -68dbM at a BER of 10E-6. The system shall accept data and clock inputs. The composite analog signal contains: 1) a NTSC video signal 2) a narrow band audio channel and 3) an analog representation of a T-1 data signal. These three analog signals described are combined into one composite analog signal occupying 15Mhz of baseband bandwidth. 2.8 The two foot antenna shall have a minimum gain of 29 dB with a front to back ratio of 30 dB. 2.9 All associated cables which connect the microwave terminal to the antenna feed, interconnect cables, circulators, couplers, filters and any other cable shall be furnished by the manufacturer and shall be rugged and capable of operating in a full range of operating temperatures and climates as referenced in paragraph 2.10 below. 2.10 The microwave equipment shall be ruggedized and designed to operate in an unsheltered environment under the following conditions: a. operating temperature: -20 to +50 Deg Celsius; b. storage temperature: -25 to +75 Deg Celsius; c. humidity: 95% relative at +25 Deg noncondensing; d. Altitude: to 15,000 feet operational to 40,000 feet storage. 2.11 The microwave equipment shall conform to the following mechanical parameters: a. Weight: 50 pounds maximum (transmitter or receiver); b. Connectors: 1) RF input receiver: Type N, 2) RF output transmitter: Type N; 3) Baseband output receiver: Type BNC; 4) Baseband input transmitter: Type BNC; 5) AC/DC power in: 5 pin male plug; 6) Service in channel: 4 pin connector; 7) Service out channel: 4 pin connector; 8) Data in, out: 3 pin connector; 9) Clock in, out: 3 pin connector.
