Summary
This program solicitation (darpa-ps-24-18) is issued by the defense advanced research projects agency (darpa) under the strategic technology office (sto) for the next generation electronic surveillance technology (ngest).
the solicitation, posted on august 2, 2024, invites innovative proposals aimed at developing advanced radio frequency (rf) sensing systems to enhance tactical operations. Key dates include a proposer's day and deadlines for questions (august 9, 2024), abstract submissions (august 27, 2024), and oral presentations approximately four weeks after abstract submission. darpa anticipates multiple awards and will utilize other transaction for prototype agreements as the funding instrument.
the ngest program spans 33 months, divided into two phases:
- Phase 1 focuses on modeling and simulation within a government-defined testbed.
- Phase 2 emphasizes prototyping and testing in both laboratory and outdoor environments.
proposers are encouraged to submit abstracts that explore innovative approaches in areas such as machine learning, signal processing, and rf hardware properties. The solicitation emphasizes that not all phase 1 performers will advance to phase 2; only the most promising proposals will be selected for further development.
additionally, all submissions are expected to be controlled unclassified information (cui), with specific guidelines provided for submitting requests related to cui documentation.
