| Description:: | The goal of Electronic Warfare (EW) is to control the Electro-Magnetic Spectrum (EMS) by exploiting, deceiving, or denying enemy use of the spectrum while ensuring its use by friendly forces. To that end, the Office of Naval Research (ONR) EW Discovery and Invention (D&I) program invests in Science and Technology (S&T) initiatives that will provide naval forces (including Navy and Marine Corps) with improved threat warning systems; Electronic warfare Support (ES); decoys and countermeasures against weapon tracking and guidance systems; Electronic Attack (EA) against adversary Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR); and Electronic Protection (EP) of our own weapons and C4ISR from intentional and unintentional interference. ONR has funded related technology development under numerous programs. If Offerors are enhancing work performed under other ONR or Government projects, they must clearly identify the point of departure and what existing work will be brought forward and what new work will be performed under this BAA.ONR Code 312 Electronic Warfare (312EW) seeks proposals for efforts that shall develop and demonstrate technologies for the next generation systems in electronic warfare. White papers and subsequent proposals should address technology developments in one or more of the following areas: Area 1. Radio Frequency (RF) / Millimeter Wave (mmW) Electronic Warfare Subsystem Demonstrators (SSDs)Area 2 – Compact and Efficient EW Antennas Covering HF to VHF (3-300 MHz)Area 3 – W-Band Millimeter Wave (mmW) High Power Transmitters Area 4 – Innovative EW Concepts |
