In the 20th century high end correlators were built with ASICs (VLA, Westerbork, Australia Telescope). As we entered the 21st century FPGAs came to the fore (eVLA, CABB, etc.) but due to the huge data flows they needed massive dedicated data transport systems. The CASPER group followed a different path and used network switches for data transport but this imposed a significant extra cost and for

Bluering is the CSIRO name given to a new generation of radio astronomy array receivers based on Xilinx’s Radio Frequency System on Chip (RFSOC) technology. Bluering was initially designed for low frequency radio astronomy applications (such as the MWA telescope), but has grown to be a receiver also capable of L-band radio astronomy (such as Phased Array Feeds). Bluering is not only an array re

The Hydrogen maser is required equipment for any VLBI station, and so is a formatter such as a DBBC(1,2 or 3) or DBE. Together, these ensure that the received spectrum gets digitized, timestamped with sufficient stability, and provided with headers to allow playback at a correlator. These necessities however don't come cheap.
