SHIP ANTENNA OPTIMIZATION
1. PURPOSE
This Special Notice is issued to provide awareness of the release of a Request for Solutions (RFS) for an other transaction project in accordance with 10 U.S.C. 4022. The RFS title Ship Antenna Optimization has been issued as part of the Strategic & Spectrum Missions Advanced Resilient Trust Systems (S2MARTS) consortium managed by National Security Technology Accelerator (NSTXL) and administered by the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division.
2. BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY
2.1 Other Transaction Consortium
Vendors interested in responding to this RFS must be members of the Strategic & Spectrum Missions Advanced Resilient Trusted Systems (S2MARTS) Consortium Crane. Interested parties may visit S2MARTS.org for membership information.
2.2 PROJECT OVERVIEW
The existing antennas are part of a backpack deployable system that does not provide the necessary radiofrequency (RF) radiation pattern or sufficient gain to meet mission requirements. Thus, it is imperative to utilize high-gain directional antennas with appropriate radiation patterns, which can be permanently installed in a shipboard environment. At present, a man-portable backpack system is employing omnidirectional antennas that do not possess the requisite RF radiation pattern or sufficient gain to satisfy mission requirements. Therefore, the project aims to develop antennas that can be permanently installed in a shipboard environment while fulfilling both performance and environmental standards.
