Purchase of a Mobility Enhanced Spectrum Analyzer (MESA) and DopeScope

THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. This is a combines sources sought and notice of intent to award a sole source contract. Should this source sought notice is unsucessful to identify viable small business sources capable of providing the sought equipment, a direct award shall be issued to Research Electronice International, LLC, IAW FAR 13.106-1(b) (1)(i), Contracting Officers may solicit frome one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumastances of the contract action deem only once source reasonably available. The Government is seeking the purchase of a Mobility Enhanced Spectrum Analyzer (MESA 2.0) and DopeScope as specified: Why: Purchase of Spectrum Analyzing equipment to provide training and evaluation to RTUs for expeditious understanding of Spectrum Usage and Visibility, providing Commanders situational awareness of RF signatures. MESA provides Spectrum viewing to include cellular usage (upload signals) while DopeScope provides situational awareness and noise level of BT and WIFI signatures. What: displays a full range of frequency data to 6GHz (*12GHz with the Down Converter Antenna) Sweep modes: Spectrum Analyzer: zoom, screen lock, frequency span, start/stop frequencies, resolution bandwidth, center frequency I/Q Recording: captures raw I/Q data for external analysis SmartBars: displays new or increased RF energy in a bar graph Mobile Bands: displays RF in specific bands (i.e. Wifi, GSM, etc.), includes new Jammer/Interference Detection feature with current production models WiFi: displays nearby access points, clients, RSSI, signal data, channel, and more Bluetooth: displays nearby pairing activity Display Features: Persistence, Raster Waterfall, Spectral Power Histogram (RSSI), Peak Trace, Average Trace, Patent Pending Cached Peak MCP (Multi-Carrier Probe): Carrier Current, Visible Light/IR, Ultrasonic, Audio Transformer, and Acoustic Leakage Antenna Probe Recognition automatically detects REI antennas/probes and adjusts display Audio Demodulation: AM/FM Alerts: haptic, audible, and visible Remote Access: Ethernet port for VNC remote access Signal List Generation: Manual or automatic depending on the mode GPS: Removable USB, that captures and saves GPS data Including These applications: Audio: Built-in speaker and external headphones with adjustable volume control. Microphone port for Acoustic Leakage Probe and Audio Transformer Data Ports: 2 USB 2.0 Type-A ports for software upgrades, file storage, file transfer Detect RF WiFi, Bluetooth, cell phones, illicit transmissions Interference detection & troubleshooting RF research and development Wireless industry developers Intelligence protection Communications Site Surveys Eavesdropping detection RF emissions analysis Spectrum misuse investigation Specifications: RECEIVER Sweep Speed: >200 GHz/second Operating Freq.
