Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) Solution

The Naval Research Laboratory seeks to procure a complete Vector Network Analyzer solution to characterize Anti-ferromagnetic materials from 10MHz to 1100GHz. The base module must have a minimum of two ports covering 10MHz to 43.5GHz for S-parameter measurements, with additional capabilities for spectrum analysis, time domain analysis, and pulse generation/detection. Frequency up and down converters are required to extend measurements from 750GHz to 1100GHz. Responses are due by December 3, 2021 and will be evaluated based on the technical requirements outlined in Attachment 1. The award will be a firm fixed-price contract for equipment delivery within 120 days of the award date.

There is no set-aside designated for this procurement. The NAICS code is 334516 and PSC code is J070. No incumbent or current contractors are identified. The place of performance will be Washington, DC. Key details include measuring S-parameters from 10MHz to 1100GHz with a minimum 40ns pulse width and operating temperatures from 15 to 28 degrees Celsius. Cabling, hardware, and a torque wrench must be included.
