NuWaves Selected for S-Band T/R SBIR Award

May 16, 2018

NuWaves Engineering has received an SBIR Phase I award to develop a T/R module for S-band STRAFE systems.

Veteran-owned small business NuWaves Engineering has been selected by the U.S. Navy for a Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) Phase I award. The award is for NuWaves’ S-band transmit/receive module advancements for efficient radars (STRAFE). The six-month Phase I project will involve R&D for creation of a monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) architecture that can be integrated into a high-performance transmit/receive module. Once the module is developed, it will be delivered to the Navy during Phase II.
