- Description
- The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Environmental Technology Laboratory (ETL) Microwave System Development Division is in the process of building a new radiometer system. We are soliciting bids on a 183 Ghz radiometer receiver. Bids should be for quantities of 1 to 3 units. Bids are requested for the fabrication and delivery of 183.310 Ghz linearly-polarized single-conversion double-sideband superheterodyne receivers for radiometer applications with the following specifications: (1) minimum IF bandwidth from 500 MHz to 12 Ghz, desirable IF bandwidth down to 150 MHz and up to 19 GHz; (2) planar beam-lead Schottky mixer diodes; (3) operating temperature range ?40 to 40 degrees C; (4) maximum RF center frequency drift less than +/-30 MHz over temperature range, and desirable drift less than +/-10 MHz; (5) corrugated feedhorn with 23 degree 3-dB beam pattern; (6) maximum DSB noise figure <10 dB, desirable DSB NF <8 dB, with matched IF amplifier of at least 10 dB gain; (7) optional harmonic LO downconverter for LO frequency determination. Delivery is required within 120 days ARO. Technical contact is Brad W. Orr, phone 303-497-5152; email: brad.w.orr@noaa.gov A written capability statement and quote must be received via fax or email on or before August 8, 2003.
