This is a Requirements/Specification Document from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for a Laser-Powered Electric-Field Probe, issued by the Communications Technology Laboratory's Shared Spectrum Metrology Group. The document details technical specifications for procuring a high-precision field probe to measure and monitor electromagnetic field strengths in various environmental and operational conditions. Key technical requirements include a frequency range of 9 kHz to 15 GHz, field strength range of 9 kHz to 1.5 kV/m, and damage threshold specifications. The probe must have resolution less than or equal to 0.05 V/m, with sample acquisition characteristics allowing 2 MS/s in burst mode.

Procurement support details include delivery to NIST in Boulder, CO within 90 days after award, with required electronic media including software, electronic manuals, and a license key. The document specifies an extended 3-year warranty covering labor and parts, on-site inspection and acceptance by the Shared Spectrum Metrology Group, and no additional calibration requirements beyond the initial item cost. The probe's field meter system must accept power from various sources, include PC communication capabilities with USB and Ethernet interfaces, and come with software that can acquire and display real-time measurements with future software update capabilities.
