This procurement will equip the PNT Office with GNSS interference detection and mitigation technology that will allow it to better understand the capabilities of emerging technologies.

The intention of this procurement is to be able to sample GNSS interference detection technology in the marketplace. As such, multiple contracts may be awarded to be able to sample the highest rated responses that meet the mandatory requirements. Four different categories of technologies are being considered for testing:

A. GNSS Interference Detection Systems: This category consists of systems that have emerged on the market that use a network of sensors to detect GNSS interference and the location of the source. The system will have a data collection and processing centre to analyze the data. 

B. GNSS Interference Detection Devices: This category consists of devices that have emerged on the market for detecting GNSS interference. More sophisticated devices may include the capability to determine the location of the source, direction of the source, type of interference as well as the ability to monitor multiple GNSS frequencies. The device is a self-contained solution. 

C. GNSS Receivers with GNSS Interference Detection Capabilities: This category consists of GNSS receivers having spectrum analyzer functionality for detecting GNSS interference and the ability to apply filters to mitigate the effects of GNSS interference. This procurement also includes accessories to leverage the GNSS receiver in the field, including:

a. A GNSS antenna
b. A survey grade tripod
c. A survey grade tribrach
d. A survey grade tribrach adapter

D. GNSS Anti-Jam Antennas (Controlled Reception Pattern Antennas (CRPAs)): This category consists of GNSS antennas  having the ability to detect and nullify the impact of radio frequency interference through the use of multiple antenna elements and advanced beamforming algorithms.
