COMMERCE BUSINESS DAILY ISSUE OF FEBRUARY 24,1995 PSA#12902451 Crystal Drive Arlington, VA 22245-5200 D -- SHIPBOARD UHF RF POWER AMPLIFIER POC Matthew E. Brandt, PMW
172-12B, 703-602-8279 or Linda Squires, 02-32, 703-602-0660. Synopsis
No. 24. Space and Naval Warfare Systems (SPAWAR) is seeking detailed
information concerning a high power, linear broadband microwave
amplifier for maritime (ship interior) application. Current interest is
that the radio frequency (RF) power amplifier cover the entire
frequency range of 1350 to 1850 MHz with a variable power output up to
300 watts maximum that will be driven from a 0 dbm (1 mW) to +37 dbm
(5 W) input. The power amplifier may be a Traveling Wave Tube (TWT) or
solid state. A TWT power amplifier should provide the user with
features in regulation of the helix, filament, and grid power supplies,
as well as input and output VSWR protection. Furthermore, the RF power
supply must have the following features: 19 inch rack mountable, 115
VAC as primary power, single phase, 50/60 Hz 2 KVA maximum, 50 Ohms
input and output impedance, RF connectors: Type N (input) WR62
(output), basic operating temperature: 0-50 degrees C (40 degrees C @
10,000 Feet). Overall, the RF power amplifier should feature power on,
RF standby/on, RF power metering, fault indication (i.e. helix
overcurrent, VSWR metering and overload protection, power supply/TWT
overload) and have ease of maintenance. Information submitted should
include all available White Papers describing: 1) details of the RF
power amplifier design, 2) RF power amplifier description and RF
specification data, 3) delivery and cost data. Please note that this is
a Request For Information only, and that no procurement documents for
such an RF amplifier exist at this time. SPAWAR may, however, use
information obtained through this request when structuring future
NDI/COTS procurement documents which may include a requirement for
demonstration of the proposed RF amplifier prior to award of any future
contract. Interested parties should indicate whether they are small
business, small disadvantaged business, or 8(a). This is not a request
for proposal (RFP), a promise to issue an RFP, nor a promise by the
government to pay for information received in response to this
synopsis. Acknowledgement of receipt will not be made nor will
telephone inquiries be honored. Proprietary data submitted in response
to this synopsis will be protected when designated. A procurement, if
any, resulting form this synopsis will be separately synopsized by RFP
in the CBD.Interested offerors may send information by 23 February 1995
to: Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command, Attn: Matthew E. Brandt,
RF Systems Engineer, Code: PMW 172-12B, Room 540, 2451 Crystal Drive,
Arlington, VA 22245-5200. Please reference this synopsis no. 24 on both
mailing envelope and the enclosure. (0053) Loren Data Corp. http://www.ld.com (SYN# 0028 19950223\D-0007.SOL)
