Analog-to-Information Receiver Development Program (A-to-I): DARPA is soliciting proposals for the design and demonstration of innovative high dynamic range, broadband digital receiver systems based on Analog-to-Information Converter (AIC) technology. AIC-based receivers offer the potential for high dynamic range digitization and broad unambiguous frequency coverage using encoded sampling at sub-Nyquist effective sampling rate. With suitably implemented decoding, AICs allow accurate reconstruction of signals of interest, enabling novel digital receivers that provide dramatically increased performance over traditional approaches at a given level of mixed-signal technology. DARPA Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) No. 08-03, entitled " Analog-to-Information Receiver Development Program (A-to-I)," is provided as an attachment to this solicitation notice and includes information on the specific areas of interest; the submission process; abstract and proposal formats; evaluation and selection/funding processes; as well as all other pertinent administrative and contractual information. The BAA may be obtained from the FedBizOpps website: http://www.fedbizopps.gov/, Grants.gov website: http://www.grants.gov/, World Wide Web (WWW) at URL http://www.darpa.mil/mto (go to "solicitation" area) or by fax, electronic mail, or mail request to the administrative contact address given below. Proposals not meeting the format or following the submission instructions described in the BAA may not be reviewed.
