This grant from the DARPA Microsystems Technology Office is designed to solicit innovative proposals aimed at revolutionizing RF filtering technology. The primary purpose is to develop compact, high-performance front-end RF filters essential for safeguarding the sensitive elements of digital Active Electronically Scanned Arrays (AESAs). These advanced filters will provide critical protection against the increasing threat of interference prevalent in today’s congested RF spectrum environments. Furthermore, a key focus of this initiative, emphasized by a recent amendment, involves thoroughly assessing the vibration sensitivity of proposed technical approaches and identifying viable methods to effectively mitigate these vibrational impacts, ensuring robust system operation.
