Customized Beam Forming at the Allen Telescope Array (August 11, 2002)
G. R. Harp
One of the exciting prospects for large N arrays is the potential for custom beam forming when operating in phased array mode. Pattern nulls may be generated by properly weighting…
A new class of SETI beacons that contain information (22-aug-2010)
G. R. Harp, R. F. Ackermann, Samantha K. Blair +4
In the cm-wavelength range, an extraterrestrial electromagnetic narrow band (sine wave) beacon is an excellent choice to get alien attention across interstellar distances because 1…
Primary Beam and Dish Surface Characterization at the Allen Telescope Array by Radio Holography
ATA GROUP, Shannon Atkinson, D. C. Backer +46
The Allen Telescope Array (ATA) is a cm-wave interferometer in California, comprising 42 antenna elements with 6-m diameter dishes. We characterize the antenna optical accuracy usi…
The ATA Digital Processing Requirements are Driven by RFI Concerns
G. R. Harp
As a new generation radio telescope, the Allen Telescope Array (ATA) is a prototype for the square kilometer array (SKA). Here we describe recently developed design constraints for…
