Low-Noise Amplifier - The instrument must include an internal low-noise amplifier from frequency range of 150 kHz to 44 GHz.
Modulation analysis of analogue modulated carrier signals - The instrument must include an integrated application that permits the demodulation of analogue signals (AM, FM and PM), that has the same analysis capabilities as an analog modulation analyzer.
Modes of operation - The Instrument must have the following detectors:
a) Positive peak; b) Voltage Average; c) Sample; d) CISPR-QUASI-PEAK; e) CISPR-Average; g) CISPR-RMS
Trace Functions - The number of traces must be greater than 2. It must be possible to display multiple traces on the screen at the same time. The trace functions shall include a ?clear? or ?free-run? option, a maximum hold option and a trace average function.
Display Scales - The display must be capable of logarithmic and linear modes. The scale units for logarithmic display capabilities must include dBm and dBuV.
RBW Step Sizes - The RBW steps must include, but not be limited to, steps in increments of 1, 3 and 5 (e.g. 100 kHz, 300 kHz and 500 kHz).
Zero Span - The instrument must be capable of entering a ?zero span? mode.
Trigger - There must be a function for triggering displayed signals. This function must include a ?clear? or ?free-run? function, a ?video? or ?line? trigger, a radio frequency ?RF? or signal trigger and an external trigger via an external input.
Measurement Features - Measurement features must be available which include the ability to display limit lines, measure the 99% occupied bandwidth, measure the x dB bandwidth, measure the channel power, measure the Complementary Cumulative Distribution Function (CCDF) and time gate.
Standard Commands for Programmable Instrumentation (SCPI) Compatibility - The Instrument must have the ability to be remotely controllable via an external computer using SCPI commands and must have SCPI remote software control commands that can be used to create limit lines on the display of the Instrument.
Environmental Requirements - The manufacturer’s operating temperature range must be in the range of 10 degrees Celsius or lower to 35 degrees Celsius or higher.
Connection Requirements - The RF test port connector must be a 2.92 mm male connector.
User Interface - The instrument must include a user interface embedded in the equipment.
Data Storage - There must be internal Solid State Drive (SSD) data storage with a minimum storage size of 32 GB.
Weight - The Instrument must not weigh more than 50 kg.
Software License - The software provided with the instrument must include a perpetual license.
Operating System - The Instrument’s operating system must be a Microsoft Windows platform.
Remote Connectivity - The Instrument must have the ability for an external computer to remotely connect to the Instrument and download trace images and trace data.
Compatibility with automation software - The instrument must be fully compatible with the CEB’s automated test software EMC32.
Quality and Service - The instrument must be a standalone turnkey instrument, not a system comprised of several different pieces of equipment.
Safety Requirements - The instrument must conform to the applicable CSA electrical standard and must contain the appropriate CSA marking.
Deliverables - All hardware components of the instrument must be delivered with a certificate of calibration and data demonstrating compliance to all the manufacturers’ specifications. The calibration must be valid for at least 1 year after purchase.
APPLICABLE TRADE AGREEMENTS AND OBLIGATIONS
This requirement is subject to the Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA),the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the Billateral Free Trade Agreements and the World Trade Organization Agreement on Government Procurement (WTO-AGP).
GOVERNMENT CONTRACT REGULATIONS (GCR) EXCEPTION AND LIMITED TENDERING REASON
In accordance with the GCR exception, this requirement is being directed to the Rohde & Schwarz Canada Inc. (OEM) as the required items are guaranteed interchangeable with the current EMC32 software being used on-site at Industry Canada.
Limited tendering procedures are being invoked for reasons of Interchangeability with existing systems. Substitutions of this equipment would be un-safe in the short-term and in the long-term, would require many expensive changes.

Delivery Date: Above-mentioned
You are hereby notified that the government intends to negotiate with one firm only as identified above. Should you have any questions concerning this requirement, contact the contracting officer identified above.
An Advance Contract Award Notice (ACAN) allows departments and agencies to post a notice, for no less than fifteen (15) calendar days, indicating to the supplier community that it intends to award a good, service or construction contract to a pre-identified contractor. If no other supplier submits, on or before the closing date, a Statement of Capabilities that meets the requirements set out in the ACAN, the contracting authority may then proceed with the award. However, should a Statement of Capabilities be found to meet the requirements set out in the ACAN, then the contracting authority will proceed to a full tendering process.
Suppliers who consider themselves fully qualified and available to provide the services/goods described herein, may submit a statement of capabilities in writing to the contact person identified in this Notice on or before the closing date of this Notice. The statement of capabilities must clearly demonstrate how the supplier meets the advertised requirements.
The PWGSC file number, the contracting officer's name and the closing date of the ACAN must appear on the outside of the envelope in block letters or, in the case of a facsimile transmission, on the covering page.
