66 -- MILLIMETER WAVE MODULES SOL NB813000003215MB DUE 080400 POC Michelle Bernal, Purchasing Agent, (303) 497-3983 or FAX (303) 497-3163 E-MAIL: NOAA; MASC Acquisition Management, Michelle.A.Bernal@noaa.gov. The National Institute of Standards & Technology(NIST) has a requirement for millimeter wave modules as part of a millimeter wave measurement system (50 to 110 Ghz). The critical specifications are as follows: (A) WR-15 Specifications (transmit): 1) System operating frequency equals 50 to 75Ghz; (receiver) 50 to 75Ghz. 2) Source input frequency equals 12.5 to 20 Ghz; (receiver) n/a. 3) Source input power equals plus 5dbm to plus 13dbm; (receiver) n/a. 4) test port output power equals plus 2dbm minimum plus 7 dbm; (receiver) n/a. 5) Test port input power equals minus 10 dbm input signal; (receiver) minus 10dbm input signal at 0.1 db comp. 6) Mixer LO frequency equals 10 to 15Ghz (x5); (receiver) 10 to 15Ghz (x5). 7) Mixer LO drive equals plus 5 to plus 13 dbm; (receiver) plus 5 to plus 13 dbm. 8) Test dynamic range equals 80dbm minimum; (receiver) 80dbm minimum. 9) If frequency range equals 10 to 300 Mhz; (receiver) 10 to 300 Mhz. 10) Coupler directivity equals 35db minimum; (receiver) n/a. 11) Testinterface equals MIL.-f-3922/67b-008(ug 385/u) for MMW test port. (B) WR-10 Specifications (transmit): 1) System operating frequency equals 75 to 110 Ghz; (receiver) 75 to 110 Ghz. 2) Source input frequency equals 12.5 to 18.0 Ghz(x6); (receiver) n/a. 3) Source input power equals plus 5dbm to plus 13 dbm; (receiver) n/a. 4) Test port output power equals minus 5dbm minimum; (receiver) n/a. 5) Test port input power equals minus 10 dbm at .1db; (receiver) minus .10 dbm at .1 db. 6) Mixer LO frequency equals 9.3 to 13.8 Ghz (x8); (receiver) 9.3 to 13.8 Ghz (x8). 7) Mixer LO drive equals plus 5 to plus 13 dbm; (receiver) plus 5 to plus 13 dbm. 8) Test dynamic range equals 80 db minimum; (receiver) 80 db minimum. 9) IF frequency range equals 10 to 300 Mhz; (receiver) 10 to 300 Mhz. 10) Coupler directivity equals 35 dbm; (receiver) n/a. 11) Test interface equals MIL.-F-3922/67B-010(UG 387/U-M) for MMW test port. Note: These modules must be self contained, not in individual parts, with an RF input and LO input also a Test Port output and Test Channel output . Technical questions must be submitted in writing to the Contracting Officer by fax or by email. This procurement is being conducted per FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This requirement is set-aside for small business unless small business cannot meet the Governments need at a reasonable cost. You may submit your proposal by fax or by mail. Proposal must be received on or before close of business August 4, 2000. Please include delivery date, F.O.B. point, business size, Federal Taxpayer Identification Number, and Duns and Bradstreet Number. Terms and Conditions and agency level protest procedures can be fond on web site http: oamweb.osec.doc.gov/conops #REFERENCE. Hard copy in full text available from office address and phone number listed in notice. Anticipated award date August 8, 2000. Posted 07/10/00 (D-SN472882). (0192)
