Description

SUBJECT:

Market research is being conducted to identify potential sources that may possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet the requirements for acquisition of the digitally tuned and dual phase locked oscillators used on the AN/ALQ-161A.

ITEM DESCRIPTION:

The two types of oscillators required for this acquisition effort are part of the AN/ALQ-161A Electronic Countermeasures System onboard the B1-B Aircraft, used by the Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC). The AN/ALQ-161A is used to control receivers and jamming transmitters that provide Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) against enemy fire control radar systems and their associated missiles.

Digitally Tuned Oscillators:

The digitally tuned oscillators consist of a select number of sub-band voltage controlled oscillators that cover a specific frequency range. The sub-band RF output are selectively switched to a common RF output port. Sufficient sub-band overlap is required to ensure full band coverage for the frequency range of the digital oscillator. Digital tuning is set using several bits to determine the correct sub-band. The required NSNs are listed below:

NSN: 5955-01-610-5542, P/N: 010-02059-0001

NSN: 5955-01-613-1745, P/N: 010-02059-0002

Dual Phase Locked Oscillators:

The dual phase locked oscillators are used to syncronyze an output oscillator signal with a known reference signal. The phase-locked loop is a closed-looped feedback circuit that is both frequency and phase sensitive. The loop consists of both analog and digital compoents that are interconnected in a negative feedback configuration. The phase locked loop consists of a phase detector/ phase comparator, voltage-controlled oscillator, and a low-pass fileter. The phase difference of the oscialltors signal and reference signal is used to assess the route of the output signal. When the phase difference is zero, the system is considered “locked”. The required NSNs are listed bel...
