The receiver pedestal unit (RXPU) for the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) has the function of packetizing the sampled date from the receivers. It contains an FPGA with high frequency clocks and large power consumption. The mechanical compartmentalizing of the RXPU should address interfaces, practical handling, transportation, cooling and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
A driving aspect in...
The Square Kilometre Array Regional Centres (SRCs) will provide a crucial link between the SKA and the scientific community. They will host a diversity of services and activities, ranging from large scale computing to data- and labour-intensive analyses. These activities, and thus the effective design and operation of the SRCs and the SRC Network, will form an essential part of the scientific...
