The BRAND wideband receiver is being developed with support from the European
Union's Horizon 2020 research
and innovation programme as a part of RadioNet.
The project represents a big technological challenge in the entire signal chain from the feed section to the digital
processing. Its continuous frequency range from 1.5 GHz to 15 GHz makes it a scientifically
extremely interesting dev

The ultra-wideband redshift search receiver (RSR) on Large Millimetre Telescope (LMT), which covers 73 - 110.5 GHz simultaneously, has been built about 10 years ago. Due to the limits in the speed, performance and cost of the high speed sampler when the receiver was designed, the receiver was implemented using analog autocorrelator. As the price-performance rate in digital technologies is constant

Most radio telescopes can have greatly expended survey speed and imaging capability by utilizing multiple receivers either as feed clusters, phased-array feeds, or a larger number of individual antennas. The number of receivers is often limited by the cost of the cryogenic cooling required for sensitivity at frequencies > 1 GHz. This paper will describe a new class of LNAs for the low microwa

Recent developments in high-speed networking and PCIe-mounted accelerator
cards have made possible new backend designs that provide vastly improved
flexibility and capability in signal processing for radio astronomy.
While direct digitization close to the receiver improves the quality of the
physical signal by reducing analog transmission and filtering losses, it also
enables the building of
