Summary
The effort required under this action is for Transmitted Isotropic Generated Equivalent Radiation. This acquisition will be to continue the next phase of research for the performance of research and implementation of prototyped development in signal
generation techniques across the radio frequency spectrum employing high levels of power. The Awardee will refine and implement the techniques, hardware, and software based upon
the prototypes developed and evaluated in the previous contract. These signal generation techniques will be employed for atmospheric research and spacecraft and/or aircraft calibration. This effort may require access to SCI programs. The Awardee will continue the research signal generation techniques across the frequency spectrum, with various signal parameters which will include, but may not be limited to, pulse-widths, pulse repetition intervals, and EIRPs. These pulses will be turned into RF energy that will be transmitted in very narrow beams at extremely high power levels from a large (greater than 55 foot) custom-designed apertures designed by the Navy to precisely target centimeter-sized components. There will be no allowance for signal spillage either to another component on the targeted vehicle or to other vehicles in proximity to the target. The Awardee will also
research, design and develop, and modify associated software and hardware combinations needed to generate the most efficient signals for use with the Navy’s space and airborne assets. See attached file.
