论文摘要
平方公里阵列(SKA)是下一代射电望远镜。用于SKA-2的孔径阵列(AA)的频率最高为1.4 GHz(SKA-1使用最高350 MHz的AAS)。本文档介绍了此中频孔径阵列(MFAA)元素的设计注意事项,以及符合SKA-2系统要求的可能的系统体系结构,将高灵敏度与出色的调查速度相结合。架构分析已提交给MFAA元素的系统要求审查。
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) is the next generation radio telescope. Aperture Arrays (AA) are considered for SKA-2 for frequencies up to 1.4 GHz (SKA-1 uses AAs up to 350 MHz). This document presents design considerations of this Mid-Frequency Aperture Array (MFAA) element and possible system architectures complying with the SKA-2 system requirements, combining high sensitivity with a superb survey speed. The architectural analyses has been submitted to the System Requirements Review of the MFAA element.
