Description

Bangor University’s Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Centre of Excellence is a 6M GBP research centre undertaking highly specialised research into the application of DSP in digital communication systems such as 5G and beyond networks and ecosystems. The DSP Centre was established with ~4M GBP capital and revenue funding from the Welsh European Funding Office (WEFO). The DSP Centre recently secured an additional ~3M GBP in capital funding from the North Wales Growth Deal (NWGD) allowing the Centre to significantly expand their lab capacity and capabilities by procuring high performance, high bandwidth, test equipment for both the generation and analysis of microwave and optical signals. The NWGD project is a 10 year project overall with equipment purchases being made across the first three years. In this procurement exercise, three pieces of equipment are required and subsequently the tender has been split into three lots accordingly. Bidders may tender for one or more lots. (Lot 1 and 3 to be funded by WEFO, Lot 2 to be funded by NWGD)
