About this file

Written by GovTribe AI ·

This document contains the salient characteristics for a mesh radio infrastructure system required by the 56th Range Management Office (56 RMO) at the Barry M. Goldwater Range. The system is intended to provide unencumbered radio antenna placement and remote control of electronic equipment on the range, utilizing a combination of medium-range sector antennas and short-range radios. The required characteristics include a token-based (TDMA) waveform, 15-30 Mbps throughput, 256-bit AES encryption, and IP65/68 ingress protection ratings for the respective antenna and radios. The system should also be able to integrate with existing systems like Motorola APX 6000 and ATAK/ITAK. This information is provided in support of a pre-solicitation notice issued by the Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command for a firm-fixed-price purchase order for the short-range mesh radio system.

Mesh Radio Infrastructure Salient Characteristics 56 Range Management Office requires a small-scale mesh radio system to allow for unencumbered radio antenna placement on the Barry M. Goldwater Range to allow for remote control of electronic equipment on the range.

Medium range (25nm) antennas along with short range (7-10nm) radios to collectively provide the mesh radio architecture desired. Radios will be connected into existing microwave backbone for backhaul to operating location.

Current fielding plan is 2 sector antennas and 7 short range radios.

Recommended operating characteristics.

Mesh Configuration: Token-based (TDMA) waveform that polls network devices to provide a form of ultra-low latency and packet loss.

Med-range Sector antenna

· Powered: shore power (120v)

· Transmission Power: 10 Watt

· Antenna: 90 or 120 degree beamwidth

· Mbps: 15-30 Mbps throughput

· Signal to Noise Ratio: -12dB to -17 dB

· Encryption: 256 AES

· Ingress Protection (IP): Rated 65

· GPS Integration Short range radio

· Radio: Receiver/transmitter (standalone node); S band (Upper L), configurable/programable

· Freq Band To Cover Approximately: 1.98ghz – 2.7ghz

· Powered: shore or battery

· Antenna: omni-directional; 4.5 – 5 dBi gain.

· Mbps: 12-25 Mbps throughput

· Signal to noise ratio: -9 dB to -15 dB

· Transmission Power: 2 Watt

· Power Consumption: 10 Watt

· Encryption: 256 AES

· GPS integration

· Ingress Protection (IP): Rated 68 Other Radio Requirements:

· Ability to integrate with other existing systems, e.g. Motorola APX 6000; ATAK/ITAK

· 1.25MHz - 20 MHz Bandwidth channels (without a license fee)

· Point to Multi-Point (split Tx and Rx Frequency)

· 87mbps useable throughput Desired/not required: ability for HD video encoding/transmitting capable.
