- Description
- � � � � �Ultra-broadband Terahertz Radio Development BAA Industry Day Announcement The Air Force Research Laboratory/Information Directorate will be conducting an in-person Industry Day on 17 October 2023 regarding the upcoming Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) FA8750-23-S-7009: Ultra-broadband Terahertz Radio Development. The purpose of this event is to provide interested companies/entities with an overview of the problem space to be addressed in the Ultra-broadband Terahertz Radio Development effort. This in-person only event is being held to promote specific areas of interest, promote an early exchange of information, and provide an opportunity for both the Government and Industry to gather more information prior to the submission of white papers which will be solicited via the upcoming BAA FA8750-23-S-7009 on the System for Award Management (SAM) website at https://sam.gov/. The Industry Day will be held at the Innovare Advancement Center, 592 Hangar Road, Rome, NY 13441.

DESCRIPTION: Radio frequencies above 100 GHz, commonly known as terahertz or sub-terahertz band, remain underutilized for communications purposes, despite their potential to enable secure wideband applications for communication systems. The high atmospheric absorption at these frequencies can limit the effective transmission range but can also be exploited for secure channelization in contested spectrum environments. AFRL/RI is interested in design, development and demonstration of an ultra-broadband radio that dynamically adjusts carrier frequency, output power and data rate within the frequency range of interest�above 100 GHz.
