The ionosphere and radio interferometry
This paper reviews the effects of the ionosphere on radio astronomjcal observations, what we can learn about the ionosphere from radio interferometry, and a procedure to correct for these effects.

White Rabbit in radio interferometry. [PDF]
Abstract Radio interferometry relies on distributed telescopes having precise time and frequency sources that allow them to operate coherently over timescales up to several hours. As radio telescopes are being connected to fiber-based high-speed communication networks, it is of interest to make use of these for time and frequency ...

Time resolution of cosmic noise observations with acorrelation experiment [PDF]
A radio wave correlation experiment using a Mills Cross technique can be used to observe the cosmic noise intensity from the ground for the purpose of determining the absorption in the ionosphere.

Bayesian source discrimination in radio interferometry [PDF]
Methods currently in use for locating and characterising sources in radio interferometry maps are designed for processing images, and require interferometric maps to be preprocessed so as to resemble conventional images. We demonstrate a Bayesian code - BaSC - that takes into account the interferometric visibility data despite working with more ...

Advances in Calibration and Imaging Techniques in Radio Interferometry [PDF]
This paper summarizes some of the major calibration and image reconstruction techniques used in radio interferometry and describes them in a common mathematical framework. The use of this framework has a number of benefits, ranging from clarification of the fundamentals, use of standard numerical optimization techniques, and generalization or ...

Efficient Range Estimation in Beat Radio Interferometry
The beat radio interferometry (BRI) is a novel ranging scheme that achieves high accuracy with low-cost devices. A major problem with BRI is the lack of an efficient range estimation method that is valid in general measurement configurations and ...

The Potsdam Open Source Radio Interferometry Tool (PORT) [PDF]
Abstract The Potsdam Open Source Radio Interferometry Tool (PORT) is the very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) analysis software developed and maintained at the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences. Chiefly, PORT is tasked with the timely processing of VLBI sessions and post-processing activities supporting the generation of ...

Golden spiral interferometry for radio astronomy. A proposal
Abstract Radio interferometry is a powerful technique that allows astronomers to create high-resolution images of astronomical objects. The distribution of radio telescopes in an interferometer is a critical factor that determines the resolution and sensitivity of the instrument.
