About this award
This federal contract, awarded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation's Space Systems Division, aims to develop compact radio frequency (RF) filtering technologies that can protect digital active electronically scanned arrays (AESAs) against interference in crowded spectrum environments. The $4,744,981 cost-plus-fixed-fee contract, titled "The Compact Front-End Filters at the Element-Level (COFFEE)," has a completion date of June 7, 2024.
The original solicitation was for the DARPA Microsystems Technology Office's efforts to produce front-end RF filters for AESA elements. This contract stems from that broader program, which had an estimated total funding of $30.5 million over 3-5 years. The contract does not have a set-aside designation. As the prime contractor, Northrop Grumman will leverage its expertise in space systems to deliver the required filtering technologies. Metamagnetics Inc., a veteran-owned small business, is a key subcontractor providing specialized RF components like frequency limiters and nonlinear transmission lines.
Description
The compact front-end filters at the element-level (COFFEE) aims to produce front-end RF filters that protect the elements of digital active electronically scanned arrays (AESAS) against interference in increasingly crowded RF spectrum environments.
