Description

This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. This constitutes the only notification before award. This is a firm fixed price, 100% small business set-aside. This solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-012. This posting is to inform potential providers that Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida has a requirement to purchase a Best Source Selector System, described in the following line items: 0001 Data Transmission Test Set: Model MD650 0002 Internal Noise Source Option: Model OP650-65 0003 Acquisition Time Test Option: Model OP650-66 0004 Multi Channel Bit Sync/Best Source Selector -- 8 channels of 20 Mbps -- 1 BSS IFB Group Card: Model OP2266B-50 0005 Additional BSS IFB Group Card: Model OP2266B 0006 Redundant Power Supply: Model OP2266B-50 0007 SO-QPSK Option to support 4 Independent SO-QPSK Channels: Model OP2266B-06 Details: 2. Multi channel bit synchronizer/best source selector, 8 channel with 20 Mbps capability with the following specifications: Requirement: Bit synchronizer with Best Source Selection with the following characteristics: Best source must be based on signal data quality (Eb/No), frame synchronization pattern is not a signal processing requirement. Best source selection must not cause a switch between sources to cause the down stream frame synchronizer connected to the bit synchronizer/best source selector output to lose lock. Best source selection must be seamless, no data errors can be tolerated. Data source selector must be capable of processing encrypted (black) data. Must not decrypt each data prior to best source selection data processing. Best source selection of encrypted data based on Eb/No (Signal Quality) Majority vote mode best source selection based on multiple sources correlated and a bit-by-bit voting is done to assemble the output data stream, when a 3rd source comes on-line it is automatically correlated with the other 2 sources, with full majority voting (weighted by the short and long term quality) invoked the error correction that results in better then a 3.3dB (two fold increase) performance improvement of the link. 2A. Additional best source selector interface to allow 2 groups of best of 4 source selection. 2B. Hot swap redundant power supply. 2C. OPSK/OQPSK/SOQPSK resequencer is required for WRTM, tier 2 modulation. Additional requirement specifications: Signal Inputs Inputs per Channel (8 Ch. Max.)
