STATEMENT OF WORK

TITLE: Link Master Software Support and Modules

LAB REQUESTING PURCHASE: Communications Technology Laboratory, Public Safety Communications Research Division

I. BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Public Safety Communications Research (PSCR) has built a 4G/5G research network to test and demonstrate innovative communication technologies for first responders.

Link Master software is a tool the PSCR laboratory uses to make mobile measurements on the research network. It is a computer-based software tool that interfaces and logs data from the user equipment (UE) device, typically a mobile phone. PSCR currently uses the Link Master Logging (LML) tool to collect this data. Its companion tool, Link Master Analysis (LMA), is also used in the PSCR laboratory to process the logged data from LML.

PSCR currently has three LML licenses and one LMA license. Continuing support of the licenses is required to support PSCR project needs.

II. OBJECTIVE

PSCR has a requirement for:

1. Updates for three (3) LML licenses supporting 4G/5G capabilities.

2. Updates for one (1) LMA license supporting 4G/5G capabilities.

3. Continued access to a license server which allows licensing keys to be checked out and in remotely.

4. Two (2) audio interface modules with Bluetooth control and USB-C connections.

III. SCOPE OF WORK

The Contractor shall provide the following:

1. Software license maintenance from 6/6/2023 to 6/6/2024 for LML part number ML8725A, serial numbers C7001_S0006, C7001_S0041, and C7001_S0101.

2. Software license maintenance from 6/6/2023 to 6/6/2024 for LMA part number ML8726A, serial number C7001_S0007.

3. Check out/in privileges for LML and LMA licenses from 6/6/2023 to 6/6/2024. Checking out/in of licenses is to be accomplished by communication to an internet connected license server maintained by the contractor.

4. Two audio interface modules for connection to Samsung Galaxy S21 5G phones as well as similar 5G phones with Bluetooth and USB-C connectors. The audio interface module will allow for evaluating voice audio quality on smartphones through either a 3.5 mm ear jack connector or Bluetooth. The module will provide simultaneous measurement of both the audio quality and the diagnostic data which will be recorded by the LML software.

IV. DELIVERY / PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE

Software license maintenance renewals to be delivered electronically no later than 6/6/2023. The software license maintenance periods of performance are indicated in Scope of Work above.

Electronic delivery to be made to:

Audio interface modules are to be delivered to NIST by 6/6/2023 addressed to:

325 Broadway Boulder, CO 80305

V. WARRANTY
