Real Time Spectrum Analyzer
Public summary
Generated or condensed from imported source text. Verify before bidding.
The National Research Council of Canada (NRC) appears to be seeking a real-time spectrum analyzer for research use in a reverberation chamber. The required equipment is described as needing a 1.2 GHz acquisition bandwidth, operation up to 26.5 GHz, and the ability to capture and stream in-phase and quadrature (I/Q) data. The analyzer is intended to support testing of devices against stringent telescope-protection requirements and radio astronomy signal analysis. The tender is listed as open and is associated with Ottawa, Ontario, although suppliers from multiple regions may potentially respond. The stated closing date is November 9, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. The category is listed as GD. This opportunity appears most relevant to suppliers of high-frequency test and measurement equipment, including real-time spectrum analyzers and related I/Q data acquisition systems. The description alone does not establish whether a particular business meets all technical, delivery, security, contracting, or eligibility requirements. Review the complete official tender notice and its attachments before deciding whether to bid. In particular, verify the mandatory specifications, submission process, delivery requirements, certifications, pricing instructions, and any amendments.The available notice PDF is: https://canadabuys.canada.ca/sites/default/files/webform/tender_notice/110917/acan-26-58198_en.pdf

The National Research Council Canada has a requirement for the supply of a 1.2 GHz acquisition bandwidth real-time spectrum analyzer (26.5 GHz) to capture and stream in-phase and quadrature (I/Q) data. The real-time spectrum analyzer will be used in a reverberation chamber to qualify DUTs against very stringent telescope protection levels. To achieve this, a low-noise, ultra-sensitive real-time spectrum analyzer is required. The real-time spectrum analyzer will capture and stream I/Q data that is used to reconstruct complex time domain signals that are then transformed to the frequency domain where radio astronomy techniques of spectral integration are used to reduce the standard deviation of the noise.
