## Summary

The National Physical Laboratory is inviting tenders for the procurement of a High-Speed Real-Time Oscilloscope for their 6G R&D activities. The contracting process is currently in the award stage, with a contract value of £450,000 in GBP. The tender deadline is October 31, 2022, with the contract period spanning from December 1, 2022, to December 1, 2023. The procurement method is an open procedure above threshold, and the main procurement category is goods. The buying organisation, National Physical Laboratory, is located in Teddington, London, United Kingdom.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in laboratory, optical, and precision equipment to compete for the contract. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the National Physical Laboratory has identified SME suitability for this procurement. The successful bidder, Keysight Technologies UK Limited, will supply the required equipment and software. Businesses interested in providing high-speed oscilloscopes and related services should consider engaging with the National Physical Laboratory for potential collaborations and business growth.

## Notice

The National Physical Laboratory [NPL] requirement is to capture high-speed electrical waveforms using a real-time oscilloscope operating over 200 GSa/s. We will use the oscilloscope for 6G R&D activities for future networks. The data will be captured and stored in the memory of the oscilloscope for offline data signal processing. The oscilloscope must have an analog bandwidth of least 70 GHz and an effective number of bits (ENOB) of at least five at 70 GHz. The number of channels on the oscilloscope will be four. The quotation should include the analysis software from the manufacturer. We will also require a compatible optical to electrical converter > 50 GHz with the real-time oscilloscope.
