The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) project will be the world largest radio telescope array. With its large number of antennas, the number of signals that need to be processed is dramatic. One important element of the SKA's Central Signal…

Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are widely used in the central signal processing design of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) as acceleration hardware. The frequency domain acceleration search (FDAS) module is an important part of the…

Time-domain radio astronomy utilizes a harmonic sum algorithm as part of the Fourier domain periodicity search, this type of search is used to discover single pulsars. The harmonic sum algorithm is also used as part of the Fourier domain…

Incoherent harmonic summing is a technique which is used to improve the sensitivity of Fourier domain search methods. A one dimensional harmonic sum is used in time-domain radio astronomy as part of the Fourier domain periodicity search, a…

Pulsar search is one of the main tasks for the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), implemented in the central signal processor (CSP) sub-element. As most the characteristics of undiscovered pulsars are unknown by definition, exhaustive searches…

Pulsar acceleration searches are methods for recovering signals from radio telescopes, that may otherwise be lost due to the effect of orbital acceleration in binary systems. The vast amount of data that will be produced by next generation…
