SIC is 3823. Size standard is 500 employees. (v) A list of contract line item number(s) and items are: CLIN 0001: Metraplex Corporation Digital Frequency Demultiplexer Master Subsystem, Model Number DFD-08-01, or equal, 2 each. (vi) Salient Characteristics for an FM Data Digital Signal Processor (DSP) 1.0 General Specifications 1.1 The DSP shall be capable of digitally demodulating all IRIG 106-93 Telemetry Standard constant bandwidth (CBW) and proportional bandwidth (PBW) FM subcarrier multiplexed formats in either mixed CBW/PBW or single CBW or PBW format configuration. These FM subcarriers are supplied directly from an L-Band telemetry receiver or 4 MHz analog magnetic tape recorder. 1.2 The DSP shall provide programmable output filtering for the demodulated FM data. 1.3 The DSP shall provide programmable data output conditioning of gain and offset. 1.4 The DSP shall be capable of standalone and remote control operation via RS-232C or GPIB as a master unit. 1.5 19 inch rack mount. 1.6 120 VAC 60 Hz nominal input power. 1.7 Weight limit of 50 lbs maximum for single person transportation. 1.8 The DSP shall have interchangeable programmable demodulators. 1.9 Minimum of 8 digital signal processing demodulators per unit, expandable to at least 16 digital signal processing demodulators per unit. 2.0 Input Characteristics 2.1 Up to 2 FM multiplex inputs with flexible demodulator channel assignment. The input connectors shall be BNC. The input bandwidth shall be high enough to accommodate 4 MHz analog tape recorders and inputs from conventional modulators and telemetry receivers. 2.2 Maximum input voltage shall be + 10V. 2.3 Input impedance shall be 50 Ohms. 2.4 Maximum operating multiplexed subcarrier input voltage of 4 V peak to peak. 2.5 The analog input shall be conditioned with a de-emphasis filter, automatic gain control, low pass filter (anti aliasing), and an analog to digital converter having a high sampling rate to provide the highest quality digital signal with a high signal to noise (S/N) ratio prior to digital demodulation. 3.0 Demodulator 3.1 Employs digital signal processing to eliminate fixed frequency analog plug-in modules for demodulating and filtering. 3.2 Digital demodulator center frequency accuracy of 0.1 ppm or better. 3.3 Capable of decoding IRIG Standard 106-93 subcarrier frequency range and deviation FM multiplexed data. 3.4 Subcarrier deviation accuracy at least 0.05% of full bandwidth. 3.5 Center frequency accuracy of 0.1 ppm or better. 3.6 Subcarrier frequency temperature stability of 0.001% per degrees C. 3.7 Output squelching for low subcarrier signal levels. 4.0 Output Characteristics 4.1 Provision of PCM/clock output and analog outputs for demodulated channels (all outputs are time correlated). 4.2 PCM output format shall have 16 bit word size with a minimum of a 32 bit synchronization pattern. 4.3 Programmable analog bipolar voltage output level of +5 V maximum, -5 V minimum or unipolar voltage output of 10 V. 4.4 Programmable output for normal or inverted polarity. 4.5 Analog current output up to 10 mA for a 1 Kohm load. 4.6 Analog output noise of 0.2% or less of full output level. 4.7 Analog output frequency response from 0 to 100 kHz providing programmable maximally flat or minimum overshoot response characteristics. (vii) Delivery shall be made no later than 120 days ADC. The contractor shall provide on an FOB destination basis. Inspection and acceptance shall be made at destination.
