58 -- Broadband singal Recorder (OB1864748) (2007-03-01)

The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD), Special Communication
Requirements (SCR) Division, Webster Field Annex is surveying the commercial
vendor community for all interested parties in the intended procurement of a
Broadband Signal Recorder and Generator as required by the Atlantic Test Range
(ATR), also part of NAWCAD. The ATR has tasked the SCR Division to integrate
and demonstrate, the functionally of a signal generator for use as a
communications simulator.

The Broadband Signal Recorder and Generator must be capable of synthesizing,
generating, and recording complex broadband signals and environments to test
and simulate, high-speed communication systems and components. It must
generate and record signals with instantaneous bandwidths up to 120MHz at RF
with a typical spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) of 45dBc. Operating
frequency band must be 2.0 MHz to 2.4 GHz. The broadband signal recorder and
generator must have analog input and output signals that receive and transmit
at the same center frequency. It must have simultaneous operation of record
and playback capability. The maximum RF output power must be 0dBm relative to
sinusoid output. It must include an integrated computer controlled wideband
attenuator into output channel with 63dB attenuation range in 1dB steps. The
maximum RF input power without front-end attenuation is 0dBm to sinusoid
input. The recorder must be able to record up to 5 seconds of RF data, be
able to store the data, and be able to replay the data in a continuous loop
without wrap-around glitches. Input and output impedance must be 50 ohm
compatible. The broadband signal recorder and generator must fit into a 19-
inch rack mount, with a maximum height of 13 inches and a maximum depth of 28
inches. The total weight of the system can not exceed 80 pounds. The
equipment must operate on 115 Vac power, with a maximum current draw of 6-
Amperes. The minimum hard drive space required is 73 GByte and the minimum
memory required is 2GByte. The equipment must be Ethernet capable
(10/100baseT), provide four USB ports and two serial COM ports, as well as a
DVD-RW capability. The equipment must be able to create the following complex
signal types: PSK, FSK, QAM, CDMA, EDGE, GSM, IS 95, IS 136, pulses, tone
combs and phase modulated tome combs, as well as white Gaussian noise and
spectral pedestal and notch noise. The equipment must be able to transmit
these complex signal types, as well as CW, AM, FM, SSB. The signal generator
must also be frequency agile. The signal generator must provide Audio Inject
that would allow the operator to input audio to the transmitted signal via
standard microphone. Dual audio output is required for recording and
monitoring. The equipment must be able to control a 6-port amplifier input
switch and a 2-port antenna select switch (both of which are TTL). The
recorder/analyzer must be able to display spectrum, time and parameter strip
chart plotting, as well as log this data to file. The recorder/analyzer must
be able to measure and display channel power and adjacent channel power. At a
minimum, the recorder/analyzer must be able to demodulate PSK and QAM, and
display constellation plots, eye plots, and various parameters such as error
vector magnitude, I/Q imbalance, eye closure, carrier power and frequency,
symbol rate and symbol rate error. Optional demodulation capabilities should
include AM/FM/PM, ASK and ASK Burst, FSK and FSK Burst and pulse.
