1. TECHNICAL OBJECTIVE

The key to the effective employment of advanced receiver-processor technology is the correct and effective operation of the receiver/processor that controls the system operation. The increasing threat environment pulse density, threat radar waveform complexity and increased integration of threat radar types, leads to the need for advanced digital receiver-processor capabilities. The key risk area that must be mitigated is the effective operation of advanced receiver-processor technologies in dense radar emitter environments that include complex threat waveforms along with today’s commercial RF background. The Sensors Directorate Integrated

Demonstrations and Applications Laboratory (IDAL) uses hardware-in-the-loop synthetic battlespace simulation to rapidly evolve and transition advanced receiver-processor technology to perform DoD directed, high priority projects in response to urgent warfighter requirements.

The evolution and transition of advanced receiver-processor technology is accomplished as a cooperative research partnership between technology developers and the IDAL using IDAL RF

Sensor Technology testbed capabilities.

The objective of this research effort is to rapidly evolve and transition advanced receiver-processor technology using IDAL hardware-in-the-loop synthetic battlespace simulation to perform DoD directed, high priority projects in response to urgent warfighter requirements. The advanced receiver-processor technology must be able to effectively operate in multiple combat scenarios and correctly detect and identify all threat radar operating modes such as search, acquisition, track, and missile guidance within required response times. This effort addresses the technology demonstration needs for sensors/EW applied (6.2) and advanced development

(6.3) research efforts. This effort also defines threat/scenario development/training needs and roadmaps.

The contractor shall provide a proposal to address the above technical objectives and the following required tasks:

a. Requirements analysis

In coordination with technology developers, technology implementers and users, the contractor shall review the requirements for IDAL simulations to conduct demonstrations of advanced

RF/IR/EO receiver technology. Based on inputs from the users, the contractor shall select scenarios to address analysis and demonstration requirements. Using the selected scenarios, the contractor shall research characteristics of the threats in the scenario to ensure that all threat operating modes have been considered in the requirements definition. The contractor shall utilize all source intelligence data in completing the threat definitions. The contractor shall coordinate the requirements with the government.

b. Synthetic Battlespace Modifications

The contractor shall develop a plan to modify and update the IDAL simulators to support Anti-

Access/Area Denial (A2AD) scenarios. The contractor shall verify modifications are sufficient to generate the required threat densities, the required waveforms and all of the combinations of threats necessary to stress the system under test (SUT) prior to the SUT proceeding to flight test.

The contractor shall coordinate with the IDAL on-site contractor to implement the modifications.

The contractor shall conduct capability assessments and demonstrations using appropriate integrated threat scenario environments. The contractor shall consider technology and/or system performance, cost, schedule and risk data. The contractor shall perform technology roadmap, planning, and budgeting activities for multiple capability areas such as EGI, GPS, RWR and

Radar.

c. Demonstration Planning

The contractor shall develop and present to the government a demonstration plan that will highlight the benefits and risks of advanced receiver technologies for application to RF/EO/IR sensor systems. The contractor shall review proposed MOEs and MOPs to verify sufficiency to demonstrate and characterize advanced receiver technologies. The contractor shall conduct simulation studies as required, to develop new MOEs and MOPs. The demonstration plan shall be based on an incremental building block approach to allow technology developers to identify and resolve problems in increasingly severe RF environments. The contractor shall coordinate the demonstration plan with the government.

d. Demonstration Execution

The contractor shall conduct required sensor receiver-processor demonstrations. The contractor shall develop and use data analysis/reduction tools necessary to perform this effort. The contractor shall reduce and analyze collected data and present the data to the government. The contractor shall provide an assessment of risks and benefits of proceeding with technology development and/or transitioning the technology for implementation. The contractor shall perform technology insertion planning to define technology requirements, development/production costs, schedules, investment strategies and risks associated with developing/integrating advanced sensor/electronic combat technologies.

e. Technology Interoperability Assessments

The contractor shall perform technology interoperability assessments that address requirements such as electromagnetic compatibility, anti-tamper and software protection.

f. Security

The contractor shall implement the security program required to accomplish this effort. The contractor shall provide personnel with sufficient clearance levels to enable access to the data necessary to execute the task order efforts. The contractor shall provide the secure facilities necessary to process data generated under this task. The contractor shall have the ability to handle and store unclassified, proprietary, and classified information to perform this activity.

The contractor shall provide the security required to perform this effort and shall implement special security requirements in accordance with classified attachments provided through government special project channels. The contractor shall ensure appropriate security protection methods are in place commensurate with the security level of the material provided to the contractor and generated by the contractor in the performance of this effort. The contractor shall develop and implement an IDAL security action plan that provides measurable work tasks and schedule milestones to accomplish IDAL security objectives/requirements for this task order.

The contractor shall provide progress reviews against the IDAL security action plan baseline.

The contractor shall coordinate security requirements/activities with the IDAL project engineer and the IDAL program manager.

g. Management/Documentation

The contractor shall propose expertise, resources, management, and security efforts required to manage this effort and to accomplish documentation.

2. REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

At a minimum, a monthly status report, respective financial reporting statements, and final report will be required. The contractor may propose additional deliverables as appropriate to the TO or alternate formats.

3. OTHER REQUIREMENTS

The contractor shall specify and provide a list of travel requirements associated with this Task

Order. This list includes but is not limited to trips to attend conferences which require

AFRL/RY approval.

4. DELIVERABLES

The contractor shall provide data deliverables in accordance with the Contract Data Requirements List (CDRLs) below. No software or hardware items are anticipated for Task Order 0002.
