The requirement summation:

"ESEA shall perform an ALR-69A Improvement Analysis effort, in which it identifies the generic hardware and software upgrades needed along with any non-ID related performance impacts to the current ALR-69A to measure and implement each of the potential ID parameters from 11 to 18.  For each of these additional ID parameters, ESEA shall model and provide a predicted ID improvement that is achievable. ESEA shall also assess and group into sets the additional ID parameters that would require the same hardware updates, have similar non-ID performance impacts, and only require unique software upgrades. For example, if the additional ID parameters 12, 14 and 17 require the same hardware upgrade, and require the same type of extended data collections and associated system Probability of Intercept (POI) impacts on other emitters in the environment, we would recommend grouping this set of ID parameters and evaluating the ID performance improvement of the set containing ID 12, 14 and 17 together as an AA test case. The results of this extended AA shall be documented in a final report and presented to the USAF in a TIM."
