This paper describes the processing applied to the HFI cleaned time-ordered data to produce photometrically calibrated maps. HFI observes the sky over a broad range of frequencies, from 100 to 857 GHz. To get the best accuracy on the…
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…
Missing frequency channels pose a problem for estimating $P(k_\perp,k_\parallel)$ the redshifted 21-cm power spectrum (PS) from radio-interferometric visibility data. This is particularly severe for the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA),…
Interleaving is a mechanism universally used in wireless access technologies to alleviate the effect of channel correlation. In spite of its wide adoption, to the best of our knowledge, there are no analytical models proposed so far. In…
A real-time ranging lidar with 0.1 Mega Hertz update rate and few-micrometer resolution incorporating dispersive Fourier transformation and instantaneous microwave frequency measurement is proposed and demonstrated. As time-stretched…
The volume of radio-astronomical data is a considerable burden in the processing and storing of radio observations with high time and frequency resolutions and large bandwidths. Lossy compression of interferometric radio-astronomical data…
This paper is part of the Prelaunch status LFI papers published on JINST (http://www.iop.org/EJ/journal/-page=extra.proc5/1748-0221). Planck's Low Frequency Instrument is an array of 22 pseudo-correlation radiometers at 30, 44, and 70 GHz.…
The recent availability of fine grained high sensitivity data from the new generation low radio frequency instruments such as the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) have opened up opportunities for using novel techniques for characterizing the…
Pulsars have proven instrumental in exploring a wide variety of physics. Pulsars at low radio frequencies is crucial to further our understanding of spectral properties and emission mechanisms.The Murchison Widefield Array Voltage Capture…
We examine data from the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) in the frequency range 72 -- 102 MHz for a field-of-view that serendipitously contained the interstellar object 'Oumuamua on 2017 November 28. Observations took place with time…
The Packed Ultra-wideband Mapping Array (PUMA) is a proposed low-resolution transit interferometric radio telescope operating over the frequency range 200 - 1100MHz. Its rich science portfolio will include measuring structure in the…
Isolated, short dispersed pulses of radio emission of unknown origin have been reported and there is strong interest in wide-field, sensitive searches for such events. To achieve high sensitivity, large collecting area is needed and…
Next-generation radio interferometers, such as the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), will revolutionise our understanding of the universe through their unprecedented sensitivity and resolution. However, standard methods in radio interferometry…
Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) array based millimeter-wave (MMW) imaging has a tangible prospect in applications of concealed weapons detection. A near-field imaging algorithm based on wavenumber domain processing is proposed for a…
Spectral data is routinely broadened in order to improve appearance, approximate a higher sampling level or model experimental measurement effects. While there has been extensive work in the signal processing field to develop efficient…
The dynamics and the structure of the solar corona are determined by its magnetic field. Measuring coronal magnetic fields is, however, extremely hard. The polarization of low-frequency radio emissions has long been recognized as one of the…
Radio frequency interference (RFI) is the principal factor limiting the sensitivities of radio telescopes, particularly at frequencies below 1 GHz. I present a conceptually new approach to mitigation of RFI in interferometric data. This has…
Modern graphics processing units (GPUs) are inexpensive commodity hardware that offer Tflop/s theoretical computing capacity. GPUs are well suited to many compute-intensive tasks including digital signal processing. We describe the…
Merging wireless traces is a fundamental step in measurement-based studies involving multiple packet sniffers. Existing merging tools either require a wired infrastructure or are limited in their usability. We propose WiPal, an offline…
A fast full-wave simulation technique is presented for the analysis of large irregular planar arrays of identical 3-D metallic antennas. The solution method relies on the Macro Basis Functions (MBF) approach and an interpolatory technique…
