- Description
- Notice of Contract Action (NOCA) - The objective of this program is to develop and demonstrate prototype photonic-electronic systems proving advanced capabilities when compared to the current state-of-the-art all-electronic solutions. Work will focus on areas in which hybrid electronic-photonic solutions provide a competitive advantage and include: the capture of signals over an ultra-wide frequency range with a large instantaneous bandwidth; the realization of large "effective" bandwidth solutions; the rapid analysis of wide-frequency signals; solutions which exploit photonics to realize low-latency capabilities; the ability to both stare, self-cue, and analyze/process. Prototypes developed shall be subject to a variety of clearly outlined tests. The tests should seek to demonstrate the capability developed by showcasing the value proposition of the prototype as it pertains to DoD applications. In an effort to move the photonics community forward, an emphasis will be placed on solutions that will work despite the practical limitations associated with the performance of the existing non-ideal constituent photonics components. Solutions should be fabrication tolerant despite real-world performance limitations.
