Description
The U.S. Government seeks solutions to defend against threats posed by pervasive use of wireless devices operating in radio frequencies while also defending against both unintended and malicious information-bearing RF emanations.

The government envisions a locally-managed commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) sensor network solution that is assembled on a modular, open, non-proprietary platform, which can task individual or coordinated sensors to detect, demodulate, log, and characterize energy events.

The sensor fabric will address specific Spectrum and Wireless Monitoring System (SWiM) requirements of government users. The goal of the Spectrum and Wireless Monitoring System (SWiM) project aims to deploy high-availability, globally-deployed, locally-managed/maintained hybrid COTS/government off-the-shelf (GOTS) systems for 24/7 use to meet federal security needs.

Proposed solutions should be viable commercial products that leverage a recent track record of successful productization. Adaptation of existing products or newly designed products to reduce unit costs at scale, after incurring any non-recoverable engineering costs, is encouraged. Scheduling flexibility exists to accommodate an accelerated engineering, test, and manufacturing schedule, if required; however, a complete design should be included in this proposal to facilitate adequate comparison during the down selection process.
