Arrays at Commercial Timescales (ACT)
Amendment 02:
The purpose of this amendment is to extend the proposal due date due to TFIMS system connectivity issues being experienced today (6/17/13).
Amendment 01:
The purpose of this amendment is to incorporate technical revisions to DARPA-BAA-13-26 and to make an administrative change to Attachment 1. Please see the revisions highlighted in yellow in the attached conformed DARPA-BAA-13-26 documents (to include Attachment 1).
Original Synopsis below.
ACT aims to dramatically shorten the timescales associated with electromagnetic array development, deployment and upgrade.
Specifically, this program will depart from traditional highly-specialized and time-consuming array design methodologies and focus on three enabling thrust areas:
1) realization of a common hardware module that can be broadly applied to many disparate array functions, 2) development of a reconfigurable electromagnetic interface capable of supporting a wide variety of parameters such as different polarizations, frequencies, bandwidths, etc.
and 3) demonstration of a scalable infrastructure in which arrays on physically disconnected platforms can be coherently combined into a larger effective aperture through the use of precise timing and localization data.
See the full DARPA-BAA-13-26 document attached.
