Miniature WCDMA Payload Navy SBIR FY2011.2 Sol No.: Navy SBIR FY2011.2 Topic No.: N112-169 Topic Title: Miniature WCDMA Payload Proposal No.: N112-169-1341 Firm: KalScott Engineering, Inc. PO Box 3426 Lawrence, Kansas 66046 Contact: Tom Sherwood Phone: (785) 979-1113 Web Site: http://www.kalscott.com Abstract: Under U.S. defense policy, the Navy is responsible for delivering satellite communications to "disadvantaged" users, the term for intelligence officials and troops working in remote areas, often with no more resources than backpacks or small vehicles. MUOS is slated to provide coverage for these users for the next many years. In situations where MUOS is not available due to any reason, it is essential to have an alternate BLOS communications capability. This RFP has requested that an airborne WCDMA base station be developed as one potential solution to this problem. KalScott Engineering proposes to develop and flight test a miniaturized, airborne qualified WCDMA base station for this application. Benefits: This technology can be used to provide wireless communications for military and civilian users, both in routine and in emergency situations. Return
