Atmospheric water vapor causes significant undesired phase fluctuations for the Submillimeter Array (SMA) interferometer, particularly in its highest frequency observing band of 690 GHz. One proposed solution to this atmospheric effect is…

Channel measurements in MIMO systems hinge on precise synchronization. While methods for time and frequency synchronization are well established, maintaining real-time phase coherence remains an open requirement for many MIMO systems. Phase…

We conducted the observational tests of a phase correction scheme for the Atacama Compact Array (ACA) of the Atacama Large Millimeter and submillimeter Array (ALMA) using the Submillimeter Array (SMA). Interferometers at millimeter- and…

A diverse array of science goals require accurate flux calibration of observations with the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter array (ALMA), however, this goal remains challenging due to the stochastic time-variability of the ``grid''…

Switched capacitor arrays (SCA) ASICs are becoming more and more popular for the readout of detector signals, since the sampling frequency of typically several gigasamples per second allows excellent pile-up rejection and time measurements.…

Characterizing the variability of the extragalactic sources used for calibration in the Atacama Large Millimeter/Sub-millimeter Array (ALMA) is key to assess the flux scale uncertainty of science observations. To this end, we model the…

We review millimeter interferometric phase variations caused by variations in the precipitable water vapor content of the troposphere, and we discuss techniques proposed to correct for these variations. We present observations with the Very…

By observing bright and compact astronomical sources while also taking data with the 183 GHz Water Vapour Radiometers, ALMA will be able to measure the `empirical' relationship between fluctuations in the phase of the astronomical signal…

Fluctuating properties of the atmosphere, and in particular its water vapour content, give rise to phase fluctuations of astronomical signals which, if uncorrected, lead to rapid deterioration of performance of (sub)-mm interferometers on…

High-frequency long-baseline experiments with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array were organized to test the high angular resolution imaging capabilities in the submillimeter wave regime using baselines up to 16 km. Four…

We present the phase characteristics study of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) long (up to 3 km) baseline, which is the longest baseline tested so far using ALMA. The data consist of long time-scale (10 - 20 minutes)…

The fidelity of operations on a solid-state quantum processor is fundamentally bounded by environmental decoherence. Characterizing environmental fluctuations is challenging because the acquisition time of nonadaptive experimental protocols…

We present a millimetre-wave site characterisation for the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) based on nearly 9 years of data from a seeing monitor operating at this facility. The seeing monitor, which measures the phase fluctuations…

We describe a method for spectral cleaning and timing calibration of short voltage time series data from individual radio interferometer receivers. It makes use of the phase differences in Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) spectra across antenna…

Communication performance and channel estimation accuracy in MIMO systems are known to be limited by hardware impairments. Specifically, the presence of phase impairments, such as phase noise, makes real-time coherent transmission a…
