About this opportunity

The Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (NIWC Atlantic) seeks to prototype rapidly deployable, integrated, and scalable receive-only antennas for polar-orbiting satellite data reception and demodulation in remote Antarctica, with proposals due September 24. This is a new Area of Interest (AOI 26-A012) under the NIWC Atlantic Rapid Capabilities Cell Commercial Solutions Opening N6523626S0001, with no set-aside restriction.

The procurement addresses modernization of legacy antenna systems to support connection with newer satellites and modern standards. Required capabilities include operation within severe bandwidth constraints, support for remote system maintenance protocols, utilization of open-standard software to enable scientific and meteorological collaboration, and field-tested robustness. The antennas must be capable of linkage to promote extreme efficiency in scheduling and prioritizing satellite passes under compressed timelines to meet mission-critical operational requirements supporting safety-of-flight planning and aviation route forecasting.

Place of performance is Antarctica. The NAICS code is 541715, Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (except Nanotechnology and Biotechnology). The PSC code is AC13, National Defense R&D Services; Department of Defense - Military; Experimental Development.

NIWC Atlantic seeks to prototype a rapidly deployable, integrated, and scalable solution capable of receiving and demodulating polar orbiting satellite data in remote Antarctica. Existing legacy antenna systems require modernization to support connection with newer satellites and modern standards. Currently, safety-of-flight planning and aviation route forecasting require solutions that can operate efficiently within severe bandwidth constraints, support remote system maintenance protocols, and utilize open-standard software to facilitate scientific and meteorological collaboration. NIWC Atlantic requires field-tested, robust antennas that can be linked to promote extreme efficiency in scheduling and prioritizing satellite passes under a compressed timeline to meet vital mission-critical operational requirements.
