Description

The Space Development Agency (SDA) seeks U.S. corporation industry feedback on optical communications waveforms, on-going work with other U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) agencies on datalinks and waveforms, and integrating datalinks and waveforms on future Tranches of the Proliferated Warfighter Defense Architecture (PWSA). This would include risk reduction efforts to support low data rate links, and long-range links, specifically space-to-space geometries of low earth orbit (LEO) to medium earth orbit (MEO) (L2M) and low earth orbit (LEO) to geosynchronous earth orbit (GEO) (L2G) ranges.

Responses to this RFI will specifically inform SDA's Transport Layer Tranche 3 planning beginning in fiscal year 2024 (FY 2024) for subsequent acquisition efforts to slated to begin in FY 2025.

See Attached Optical Communications Waveforms Request for Information Document for additional information.
