This project is for the development of a multichannel low noise receiver, data acquisition, and digital signal processing system for experimental development work in radio astronomy. The system will support multiple ongoing research efforts to study new techniques involving antenna array instrumentation and signal processing algorithms. Applications include centimeter-band focal plane array development work, radio frequency interference mitigation algorithms for focal plane arrays and synthesis arrays, and data gathering to verify and refine ionospheric correction techniques for direction-dependent self calibration in long wavelength synthesis imaging.

该项目用于开发多通道低噪声接收器，数据采集和用于射电天文学的实验开发工作的数字信号处理系统。该系统将支持多次正在进行的研究工作，以研究涉及天线阵列仪器和信号处理算法的新技术。应用包括厘米波段焦平面阵列开发工作，射频干扰缓解算法的焦平面阵列和合成阵列以及数据收集，以验证和完善长波长合成成像中方向依赖性自校准的电离层校正技术。
