ONR Code 312 portfolio (specifically the portion entitled “Cryogenically Enabled Electronics Technologies for Mixed Signal Systems“) seeks proposals appropriate for discovery and invention funding (TRL = 4), for proof of concept, development, and demonstration of individual performance-optimized component technologies, and proof of concept and demonstration of new system architectures relevant to the next generation of universal, wide-band RF receivers. The modular system targeted by this entire ONR program will demonstrate that accurate, complete, and timely situational awareness can be provided to decision makers at the tactical edge. As such, the receiver must operate at its peak performance even when the local environment is contaminated by numerous loud interferers, from virtually any source. This functionality has been desired for generations and broadly encompasses everything from full duplex operation of narrow band comms systems to fully survivable Simultaneous Transmit and Receive (STAR) systems with constant high sensitivity. The required jam and spoof resistant system will consist of a properly sized, architecturally simple, combination of inherently ultra-wideband, software defined components; enabling the receiver to learn and adapt to the current signal environment in real time.
