RF Architectures Applying Photonic Timing and Routing (RAAPTR)
Funds three to five teams from a $58 million pool to build defense-grade RF systems that use optical timing instead of conventional microwave generation.
About
The programme runs as a 42-month effort split into a 24-month component development phase and an 18-month system integration and demonstration phase, funded through Other Transaction Prototype Agreements rather than a traditional grant instrument. DARPA expects to select only three to five awardees out of the full $58 million pool, evaluating proposals mainly on scientific and technical merit, the…
