SECTION C - DESCRIPTION/SPECIFICATIONS/WORK STATEMENT

C.1 Background

National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) have jointly prepared a Wake Turbulence Research Management Plan (WTRMP), which has been discussed extensively with non-governmental stakeholder organizations (commercial air carriers, aircraft manufacturers, pilot unions and controller unions). This plan is comprised of FAA-led near-term wake-vortex-mitigation procedural changes (primarily for closely spaced parallel runways), joint FAA/NASA mid-term procedural changes that incorporate new weather collection/prediction technologies, and long-range active wake prediction solutions led by NASA. The objective of this research is to reduce the current wake turbulence (WT) separation requirements without compromising safety. NASA seeks to accomplish this by developing a system to inform controllers when new, reduced separation standards could not be used safely and current, larger separation distances would be employed. This system would provide for weather and wake vortex monitoring, analysis, and prediction. It would include a controller display indicating safe separation intervals for the operative weather conditions. The ultimate success of the NASA elements of the WTRMP will only occur upon FAA acceptance of these new systems/procedures into the National Airspace System (NAS) based on a finding that they are safe and effective.

The purpose of this Statement of Work (SOW) is to record the agreements between NASA's Xxxxxxx Research Center (LaRC) and the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Xxxxx National Transportation Systems Center (Xxxxx Center). The tasks to be accomplished by the Xxxxx Center will support NASA LaRC's development of a system concept and operational capability for a wake vortex advisory system (WVAS) at airports to improve airport safety and capacity. Specifically, this work seeks to develop a wake sensor based on wake acoustic emissions that employs an array of laser beams termed the SOCRATES¹ concept.

C.2 Scope

Under this Agreement, the Contractor shall support the Government in following areas:

Ÿ	Expand and enhance the previously developed SOCRATES sensor by increasing the number of beams and the sensitivity of individual beams;
Ÿ	Prepare for a test to determine its capability as an airport operational wake turbulence sensor;
Ÿ	Expand and build on prior work on Theory and Modeling of the formation and behavior of wake turbulence acoustic emanations;
Ÿ	Continue the development of a Concept of Operations for a wake vortex advisory system;
Ÿ	Conduct activities needed for an anticipated test of the prototype SOCRATES system at Denver International Airport during the summer of 2005 and 2006.

The services include some, but not all efforts required for development of a wake turbulence advisory system, associated field logistics, test plan development, conduct of field testing, reporting on the effectiveness of the wake turbulence advisory system and integration within the airport environment.

C.3 Objective

The objective of this work is the development and testing of a prototype laser-acoustic wake vortex detection and tracking system with potential applicability within an operational airport environment. Airport capacity is dependent upon numerous factors, including weather, airport configuration, aircraft types and the wake vortex spacing requirements. With the modernization of the NAS, which includes improved weather sensors and the exchange of aircraft data, new sensors and data will assist with the improvement of airport capacity. However, wake vortices and the present conservative spacing requirements can limit the improvements in NAS capacity. An important potential NAS improvement is an adaptive aircraft separation system for takeoffs and landings that requires the ability to localize and track wakes in both lateral and vertical position, so that the determination can be made whether a wake is or will be in a specific airspace volume of significance to other aircraft. Development of a laser-acoustic wake vortex sensor has the potential to provide NAS users with the benefits of new procedures to improve airport capacity without compromising safety.


^{1 SOCRATES: Sensor for Optically Characterizing Remote Turbulence Emanating Sound}

DTRT57-05-R-20120

C.4 Tasks

Task 1: Denver 2005 Data Analysis and Report

The Contractor shall perform a detailed analysis of the data recorded during the September 2005 field test of the 16-beam SOCRATES™ sensor at Denver International Airport, including additional off-line analyses suggested by the "quick-look" test results and data from environmental, acoustic, or other wake-tracking sensors operated by the Government or other contractors. The Contractor shall document the analysis results in a Test Report that includes, where possible, comparisons to data recorded from other sensors, as well as recommendations for relating SOCRATES™ sensor data to vortex behavior predictions from NASA's Aircraft Vortex Spacing System (AVOSS) algorithms.

Task 2: System Expansion to 32 Beams

The Contractor shall complete the expansion of the current 16-beam SOCRATES™ prototype sensor to a 32-beam system. The Contractor shall further enhance the SOCRATES™ sensor capabilities to detect and, to the extent possible, classify and localize wake vortices both in and out of ground effect and, in particular, in the landing approach corridor. The Contractor shall provide documentation on all enhancements to the SOCRATES™ sensor. As part of the development effort, the Contractor shall prepare and present a Preliminary Design Review (PDR) and Critical Design Review (CDR) for Government review and approval.

Task 3: System Software Upgrade

The Contractor shall design and implement capability improvements to the SOCRATES™ System Software as required for the expansion of the sensor and for improvements in detection, classification and tracking of wake vortices. Improvements shall include the use of focused array beamforming to estimate the position of wakes in the approach volume of landing aircraft, as well as increases in processing speed and reliability. As part of the software upgrade the Contractor shall prepare and present a Preliminary Design Review (PDR) and Critical Design Review (CDR) for Government review and approval.

Task 4: Technical Risk Mitigation

The Contractor shall develop a candidate set of technical risk mitigation steps that address both the system hardware and software elements. The Contractor shall consider, but not be limited to the following candidates: improved laser and optical system performance, careful analysis and factory testing of the support structure that will be used in the billboard array field test, and reduced receiver noise based on reduced-temperature electronics. The Contractor shall present the candidate set to the Government for approval, and upon approval shall implement those found to have the greatest benefit.

Task 5: Billboard Configuration

The Contractor shall design the components for a 32-beam laser-acoustic wake detection/tracking system based on the SOCRATES™ concept. The system shall be capable of operation with the plane of the laser array oriented at or near vertical relative to the ground, and capable of deployment off the runway centerline. The 32 beams shall be capable of operation in a single, "focused" configuration, or with the beams "split" into two groups of 16, to provide estimates of both range and angular position of the wake vortices. The system shall be designed to have the ability to distinguish between relatively loud sound generated by approaching aircraft and the relatively weak acoustic signal emanating from the wake.

Task 6: RIV Noise Reduction

The Contractor will pursue technical approaches to the suppression and mitigation of noise from both internal and external sources, with particular emphasis on Refractive-Index Variability (RIV) noise the effect of various-sized volumes of air with varying temperature and humidity moving through the laser beams. This will include refinement of methodologies for mounting laser projectors and reflecting mirrors and shielding the fiber optic transmissions and internal system electronics from noise and vibration sources. The Contractor will conduct experiments to quantify the gains available from this technology.

DTRT57-05-R-20120

Task 7: WYAS ConOps

The Contractor shall continue refinement and expansion of the Government's Phase 3 Concept of Operations (ConOps) addressing WakeVAS airport operations including a sensor based on the SOCRATES™ concept. The ConOps shall relate requirements for weather and vortex behavior monitoring to take best advantage of information provided by the SOCRATES™ sensor, and shall describe additional sensors, communications and display subsystems that may be needed in an implementation of a WakeVAS. The Contractor will work closely with Government and industry partners to design a WakeVAS emulation during the field test to be executed under future Government sponsorship. The Contractor shall also support the Government in briefing airports and other stakeholders on WakeVAS.

Task 8: Field Test Preparation

The Contractor shall prepare the system for deployment/testing at a site to be determined by the Government. Contractor activities shall include: review of system design to determine fragile elements. Design/selection of packing containers, arrangement for transportation, and interaction with Government personnel performing Task V3.

Task 9: Project Management

The Contractor shall provide monthly management status reports describing the previous month's accomplishments and next month's activities. The Monthly Report shall also include a financial summary, which shall include last month's expenditures and next month's anticipated expenditures. The financial summary shall also include a spend plan indicating projected spending as a function of task and month. The Contractor's financial progress will be monitored against the spend plan. If the Contractor exceeds the spend plan, the Contractor shall proffer solutions to reduce the cost to the cost submitted to the Government at the time of proposal.

The Contractor shall meet with the Government, at least every third month, to discuss status and progress of technical activities and to engage in an interactive discussion of related technical activities with other participating organizations.

APPENDIX 1

WAKE TURBULENCE DEFINITIONS

In the course of discussing the various aspects of wake behavior both in ground effect and out of ground effect, a number of terms have been used that have not been defined sufficiently to avoid confusion since there does not seem to be universally accepted definitions of these terms. Also, since some of these terms are also used not only in discussions and conversation relative to wake behavior but also in contract statements of work, it is essential that a consistent set of definitions be used. In this volume, the terms Detection, Classification, Localization, Tracking, and Characterization, as they apply to wake turbulence, will be defined.

The definitions of the terms that apply to this SOW are as follows:

1.	Detection: The sensing of an atmospheric phenomenon during a given dynamic sensor search sequence that was not there during the previous search sequence and persists for some number of subsequent sensor sequences. For non-search sensors, static sensors, it may also be defined as the appearance of information that is sustained signifying the existence of an atmospheric phenomenon. (D_D, D_S)
2.	Classification: The unique identification of wake turbulence from the variety of possible atmospheric phenomena. (C_w)
3.	Localization: Identification of the position in space of the wake turbulence. This must further be clarified as to whether it is a two or three-dimensional localization. (L₂, L₃)
4.	Tracking: The localization of the wake turbulence as a function of time as determined by the sensor search sequence rate. Tracking may also be interpreted as locking onto and following the wake in its motion path. The former may be called passive tracking since it is really continuous localization. The latter may be called active tracking and may require additional sensor system capabilities including active position extrapolation through prediction. (T_P, T_A)
5.	Characterization: Defining the state of the wake. Some of the properties of the state of the wake are circulation and, perhaps, axial orientation. Additional properties, and this is not intended to be an all inclusive listing of properties of interest, such as wake stability, turbulence, acoustics, and the velocity profile may also, under some circumstances, be defined as part of characterization. (C_c, C₀, C_s, C_T, C_A, C_V)

G.3 PAYMENTS UNDER COST REIMBURSEMENT CONTRACTS (MAR 2005)

A. One original and five copies of an invoice or contract financing requests shall be submitted, covering the amount claimed to be due, services rendered, and cost incurred hereunder. Under ID/IQ contracts, separate invoices or contract financing requests must be submitted for each task. However, all interim payment requests for tasks under the contract must be submitted concurrently. The contractor shall submit a last interim invoice for each task order. This shall include a complete list of invoices previously tendered under the task order. The last interim invoice shall consist of the completion invoice (clearly identified in accordance with FAR 52.2 16-7) prior to the establishment of final annual indirect rates. The last interim invoice shall be submitted within six (6) months of the task order's physical completion. If changes to this invoice become necessary as a result of Government review, the contractor shall submit a corrected last interim invoice. The contractor shall submit this invoice, along with the contractor's release form, DOT F 4220.4, to the CO, following the final adjustment of its annual indirect rates per FAR 52.2 16-7.

DTRT57-05-R-20120

B. In addition to the information required by FAR 52.216-7 and FAR 52.232-25 incorporated by reference in Section I, an invoice or contract financing payment request must meet the following requirements:

Consecutively number each interim payment request beginning with No. 1 for each task.

The voucher shall include current and cumulative charges by major cost elements such as direct labor, overhead, subcontracts, and other direct costs. Cite direct labor hours incurred by the prime contractor and each subcontractor. Other direct costs must be identified, e.g., travel, per diem, material, and equipment.

Requests for contract financing or invoices must clearly indicate the period of performance for which payment is requested and the Xxxxx Center accounting information necessary to process payments. When contracts or task orders contain multiple lines of accounting data, charges that cannot be assigned to a single line of accounting information should be allocated based on the percentage of total dollars unless otherwise specified.

When the contractor submits vouchers on a monthly basis, the period covered by invoices or requests for contract financing payments must be the same as the period for monthly progress reports reported under the contract or tasks. If, in accordance with FAR 52.2 16-7, the contractor submits requests for invoices or contract financing payments more frequently than monthly, one payment request per month must have the same ending date as the monthly progress report.

Pending settlement of the final indirect rates for any period, the contractor shall be reimbursed at billing rates approved by the Cognizant Federal Agency (CFA). The contractor shall ensure that any change in the identity of the CFA responsible for establishment of its indirect rate factors is made known to the Xxxxx Center CO. These rates are subject to appropriate adjustments when revised by mutual agreement or when the final indirect rates are settled either by mutual agreement or unilateral determination by the CFA (see FAR 42.704). In accordance with FAR 52.2 16-7, the contractor shall submit to the CFA a proposal for final indirect rates based on the contractor's actual costs for the period, together with all supporting data. In addition, contractors are required by the CFA to submit billing rate proposals, usually no later than thirty (30) days after the close of its fiscal year for the ensuing fiscal year to the CFA. Copies of the cover letter submitting the proposal must be provided to the Xxxxx Center CO. The contractor's failure to provide the rate proposal in a timely manner may impact payment of financing requests and could ultimately result in suspension of the indirect expense portion. The contractor shall provide copies of all rates established by the CFA to the Xxxxx Center CO. It is imperative that the CO be provided signed copies of all rate agreements since these rate agreements must be in the possession of the Xxxxx Center before any rates contained therein can be used by the contractor for cost reimbursement. The contractor should note that absence of final rates determination does not relieve the contractor of its responsibility under the Limitation of Funds or Limitation of Costs clauses to report in a timely manner to the CO when it has reason to believe its costs may exceed the total estimated cost or funds allotted to the task order.

G.4 PAYMENT OF FEE - COST-PLUS-FIXED-FEE COMPLETION (DEC 1998)

A. Requests for provisional fee payment must be based on and be consistent with the information stated in the contract or task financing request. However, the request must be submitted separately.

B. For term-type task orders, a portion of any fixed fee specified in the task order will be paid on a provisional basis. The amount of such payments will be based on the ratio of direct professional labor hours expended during the covered period to the direct professional labor hours specified in the task order. Direct professional labor hours include only the labor categories specified for the task order such as engineers, scientists, technicians, statisticians, and programmers and not administrative or support personnel such as company management, typists, and key punch operators, even though such administrative personnel are normally treated as direct labor by the Contractor. At the time of issuance, a term-type task order will state the requirements for earning full fixed fee by including one of the following clauses:

(1) The total fee for each term-type task shall be payable upon acceptance of the work by the Government and upon receipt of a written certification from the Contractor that the level of effort specified in the task order has been expended.

DTRT57-05-R-20120

(2) The total fee for each term-type task shall be payable upon acceptance of the work by the Government and upon receipt of a written certification from the Contractor that at least 90% of the level of effort specified in the task order has been expended. If the Contractor provides less than 90% of the level of effort specified in the task order, the fixed fee will be adjusted downward based on each hour not provided of the full level of effort specified. If the Contractor has provided 100% of the level of effort specified in the task order and the cost incurred is below the estimated cost, the Government may require the Contractor to provide additional effort up to 110% of the level of effort specified in the task order until the estimated cost has been reached. However, this additional effort shall not result in any increase in the fixed fee.

C. If a performance is considered satisfactory; the Government may make provisional fee payments subject to FAR 52.216-8 on the basis of percentage of work completed, as determined by the Contracting Officer for completion-type tasks. The Contractor shall be required to complete the specified end product (e.g., a final report or working system) within the estimated cost as a condition for payment of the entire fixed fee. In the event the work cannot be completed within the estimated cost, the Government may require more effort without any increase in fee, provided the Government increases the estimated cost. If the Government chooses not to increase the estimated cost, the fixed fee payable will based on the Contracting Officer's determination of the percentage of completion of the specified end product(s).

D. Provisional payment of fee will be subject to other relevant clauses of the contract including retainage.

G.5 PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS (AUG 05)

A. Performance evaluations shall be done for each completed task order over $100,000 and for selected tasks for lower amounts as determined by the Contracting Officer. Performance evaluations shall also be completed at least annually for task orders that have a performance period in excess of one year. (The performance evaluation form shown in Attachment J. 1, or equivalent form, shall be used.)

B. The Contracting Officer or designee shall submit the completed evaluation to the Contractor for comment. The Contractor shall have 30 days in which to respond. The Government will consider any comments provided by the Contractor before finalizing the Performance Report and the Contractor's comments will be attached to the Report.

G.6 VOUCHER REVIEW (MARCH 2003)

The Government may at its sole discretion utilize a contractor to review vouchers and supporting data submitted for payment under the provisions of this contract.

H.11 HANDLING OF DATA (MAY 1999)

A. The Contractor and any of its subcontractors in performance of this contract may have need for access to and use of various types of data and information in the possession of the Government which the Government obtained under conditions that restrict the Government's right to use and disclose the data and information, or which may be of such a nature that its dissemination or use other than in the performance of this contract would be adverse to the interests of the Government or other parties. Therefore, the Contractor and its subcontractors agree to abide by any restrictive use conditions on such data and not to:

(1) Knowingly disclose such data and information to others without written authorization from the Contracting Officer, unless the Government has made the data and information available to the public; nor

(2) Use for any purpose other than the performance of this contract that data which bears a restrictive marking or legend.

B. In the event the work required to be performed under this contract requires access to proprietary data of other companies, the Contractor shall obtain agreements from such other companies for such use unless such data is provided or made available to the Contractor by the Government. Two copies of such company-to-company agreements shall be furnished promptly to the Contracting Officer for information only. These agreements shall prescribe the scope of authorized use or disclosure, and other terms and conditions to be agreed upon between the parties. It is agreed by the Contractor that any such data, whether obtained by the Contractor pursuant to the aforesaid agreement or from the Government, shall be protected from unauthorized use or disclosure to any individual, corporation, or organization so long as it remains proprietary.

C. Through formal training in company policy and procedures, the Contractor agrees to make employees aware of the absolute necessity to maintain the confidentiality of data and information, as required above, and further aware of the sanctions which may be imposed for divulging either the proprietary data of other companies or data that is obtained from the Government to anyone except as authorized. The Contractor shall obtain from each employee engaged in any effort connected with this contract an agreement, in writing, which shall in substance provide that such employee will not during his/her employment by the Contractor, or thereafter, disclose to others or use for his/her own benefit or the future benefit of any individual any trade secrets, confidential information, or proprietary/restricted data (to include Government "For Official Use Only") received in connection with the work under this contract. The Contractor shall furnish a sample form of this agreement to the Contracting Officer promptly after award.

D. The Contractor agrees to hold the Government harmless and indemnify the Government as to any cost/loss resulting from the unauthorized use of disclosure of third party data or software by the Contractor, its employees, subcontractors, or agents.

E. The Contractor agrees to include the substance of this provision in all subcontracts awarded under this contract. The Contracting Officer will consider case-by-case exceptions from this requirement for individual subcontracts in the event that

(1) The Contractor considers the application of the prohibitions of this provision to be inappropriate and unnecessary in the case of a particular subcontractor;

(2) The subcontractor provides a written statement affirming absolute unwillingness to perform absent some relief from the substance of this prohibition;

(3) Use of an alternate subcontract source would reasonably detract from the quality of effort; and

(4) The Contractor provides the Contracting Officer timely written advance notice of these and any other extenuating circumstances.

DTRT57-05-R-20120

F. Except as the Contracting Officer specifically authorizes in writing, upon completion of all work under this contract the Contractor shall return all such data and information obtained from the Government, including all copies, modifications, adaptations, or combinations thereof; to the Contracting Officer. Data obtained from another company shall be disposed of in accordance with the Contractor's agreement with that company, or, if the agreement makes no provision for disposition, shall be returned to that company. The Contractor shall further certify in writing to the Contracting Officer that all copies, modifications, adaptations or combinations of such data or information which cannot reasonably be returned to the Contracting Officer (or to a company) have been deleted from the Contractor's (and any subcontractor's) records and destroyed.

G. These restrictions do not limit the Contractor's (or subcontractor's) right to use and disclose any data and information obtained from another source without restriction.

H. As used herein, the term "data" has the meaning set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulations, clause 52.227-14, "Rights in Data - General," and includes, but is not limited to, computer software, as also defined in Clause 52.227-14.

H.12 INSURANCE (FEB 2005)

The contractor shall comply with Section I, FAR Clauses 52.228-5 "Insurance-Work on a Government Installation" and FAR 52.228-7, "Insurance-Liability to Third Persons." The contractor shall secure, pay the premiums for, and keep in force until the expiration of this contract, and any renewal thereof, adequate insurance as provided below, such insurance to specifically include liability assumed by the contractor under this contract.

Each policy of insurance shall contain an endorsement that any cancellation or material change in the coverage adversely affecting the Government's interest shall not be effective unless the insurer or the contractor gives written notice of cancellation or change to the CO at least 30 calendar days prior to the aforementioned actions. When the coverage is provided by self-insurance, the contractor shall not change or decrease the coverage without the CO's prior approval.

A certificate of each policy of insurance shall be furnished to the CO within ten (10) days after notice of award certifying, among other things, that the policy contains the aforesaid endorsement. The insurance companies providing the above insurance shall be satisfactory to the Government. Notices of policy changes shall be furnished to the CO.

H.13 TRAVEL (MAR 2005)

Travel directly related to the performance of work in accordance with Section C shall not be permitted unless authorized under a task order. All requests for travel must be approved by the job order initiator in writing in advance of travel taking place. The actual costs for lodging, meals, and incidentals will be considered reasonable and allowable if they do not exceed the maximum per diem rates in effect at the time of travel as set forth in the Federal Travel Regulations. A written justification must be provided for higher amounts in special or unusual circumstances in accordance with the FAR Subpart 31 .205-46.
