- Special Notice N0016421SNB67 Agency:� Department of the Navy Office:� Naval Sea Systems Command Location:� NSWC Crane Division Classification Code:� AC13 National Defense R&D Services; Department of Defense � Military; Experimental Development / Research and Development System NAICS Code:� 541715 Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (except Nanotechnology and Biotechnology) Response Due Date:� June 18, 2021 Request for Solutions: NEPTUNE PAYLOAD PROTOTYPE PROJECT PURPOSE This Request for Solutions (RFS) is issued to seek a prototype subminiature Radio Frequency (RF) signal processing payload subsystem for integration into a maritime system of expendable unmanned systems. In order to support multiple RF missions with a limited set of hardware, a wideband transceiver capability with self-contained software-defined or reconfigurable hardware-accelerated processing is required. The Government will evaluate the solutions with the intent of awarding an Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) in accordance with 10 U.S. Code � 2371b.� � BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY S2MARTS Vendors interested in responding to this RFS must be members of the Strategic & Spectrum Missions Advanced Resilient Trusted Systems (S2MARTS) consortium. Interested parties may visit S2MARTS.org for membership information. This project will be managed by a Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division Project Manager. � PROJECT OVERVIEW The Government requires component technologies that are available for integration to satisfy ONR�s payload requirement include currently available integrated wideband RF transceiver chipsets, Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), RF Application Specific Integrated Circuit (RF ASIC), Radio Frequency System-on-Chip (RFSoC), and high-performance microcontrollers. Key technical objectives of the desired Neptune Payload Prototype subsystem include overall mechanical and electronic compatibility with the target platform, RF performance suitable for various maritime RF missions, and security of mission data / operational firmware / software. A balance between performance / capability and cost is desired to provide an expendable device that can be affordably fielded in quantity sufficient to make employment feasible. Any software required to acquire data should be provided as both an executable file and editable code. Please visit the S2MARTS website at https://s2marts.org/ to review the full RFS.
