Efficient channelization on a Graphics Processing Unit

Bruce Merry

We present an implementation of a channelizer (F-engine) running on a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). While not the first GPU implementation of a channelizer, we have put significa…

Tricolour: an optimized SumThreshold flagger for MeerKAT

Benjamin V. Hugo, Simon Perkins, Bruce Merry +2

We present Tricolour, a package for Radio Frequency Interference mitigation of wideband finely channelized MeerKAT correlation data. The MeerKAT passband is heavily affected by int…

Inflation of 430-parsec bipolar radio bubbles in the Galactic Centre by an energetic event

I. Heywood, F. Camilo, W. D. Cotton +96

The Galactic Centre contains a supermassive black hole with a mass of 4 million suns within an environment that differs markedly from that of the Galactic disk. While the black hol…

Faster GPU-based convolutional gridding via thread coarsening

Bruce Merry

Convolutional gridding is a processor-intensive step in interferometric imaging. While it is possible to use graphics processing units (GPUs) to accelerate this operation, existing…

A Performance Comparison of Sort and Scan Libraries for GPUs

Bruce Merry

Sorting and scanning are two fundamental primitives for constructing highly parallel algorithms. A number of libraries now provide implementations of these primitives for GPUs, but…

Approximating W projection as a separable kernel

Bruce Merry

W projection is a commonly-used approach to allow interferometric imaging to be accelerated by Fast Fourier Transforms (FFTs), but it can require a huge amount of storage for convo…
