Abstract
The source of astronomical objects, in general, is a very far distance from the observation instrument so that the transmitted signal is received very small and is at risk of being disturbed by other sources around the receiving system. Therefore, the concept of multiple receivers with array interferometry configuration arrays is used to improve the quality of the source signal detected by the receiving system. The position of each receiving system, known as the antenna pad, determines the quality performance of the received signal output. The antenna positions are arranged in a discrete grid system so that there is a vacancy between antenna pads. In this paper, a computational technique is present to overcome the region’s emptiness between one antenna to its neighbor. As an initial result, the integrating of each position with its neighboring pads with some of its smoothing functions is optimal in filling the void region and maximizing the u-v coverage.
期刊介绍:
Analog Integrated Circuits and Signal Processing is an archival peer reviewed journal dedicated to the design and application of analog, radio frequency (RF), and mixed signal integrated circuits (ICs) as well as signal processing circuits and systems. It features both new research results and tutorial views and reflects the large volume of cutting-edge research activity in the worldwide field today.
A partial list of topics includes analog and mixed signal interface circuits and systems; analog and RFIC design; data converters; active-RC, switched-capacitor, and continuous-time integrated filters; mixed analog/digital VLSI systems; wireless radio transceivers; clock and data recovery circuits; and high speed optoelectronic circuits and systems.
