1 SKA Phased Array Feed Advanced Instrumentation Program SKA Engineering Meeting 1 6 October 2016 PAF AIP Consortium

2 Outline PAF Advanced Instrumentation Program Ø Members Ø Overview Ø Scope SKA PAF Dish Consortium Engagement Ongoing SKA Related PAF Developments AIP Activities Challenges Next Steps

3 PAF AIP - Members Consortium Foundation Members Ø NRC (Canada) Ø ASTRON (The Netherlands) Ø JBCO (UK) Ø INAF (Italy) Ø CSIRO (Australia) - Lead Potential Additional Members Ø JLRAT (China) Ø MPIfR (Germany)

4 PAF AIP - Overview SKA Organisation has agreed to set up a PAF AIP The PAF AIP aims to continue existing SKA PAF development by building on PAF work already investigating newly emerging technologies that promise to increase the performance of PAF systems Initially the AIP will focus on developing metrics and requirements to support future developments of PAFs for the SKA

5 PAF AIP - Overview Initial AIP Plan to SKA Board November 2016 The AIP will: Ø Run for the remainder of SKA Preconstruction Late 2018 Ø Deliver a System Requirements Review (SRR) and Conceptual Design Review (CoDR) Ø Be a precursor to a PAF development program during SKA Construction (ODP)

6 PAF AIP Scope of Technical Work Primary Room Temperature PAFs at low and/or high frequencies Cyrogenic PAFs at low and/or high frequencies Digitisation Signal Processing / Beamforming Calibration Subsequent Manufacturability & maintainability Weight reduction Cost (manufacture & operating) Power consumption

7 PAF Dish Consortium Engagement SKA SKA Dish common optical configuration defined and dish design well developed. Ø 15m Offset Gregorian Ø 5m sub-reflector (oversized) Ø Shaped reflector with 58 openning angle Ensure SKA1_MID antenna design is PAF compatible Ø SKA SKA Feed Indexer design and structure interfaces Ø SKA_Survey Band 2 PAF replaces SKA SPF Band 1 Ø SKA_Survey Band 3 PAF replaces SKA SPF Band 3, 4, 5. Basic system architecture defined PAF ICD Compatibility with SKA_Mid antennas

14 PAF Development - ASTRON APERTIF - Status Ø All hardware in place at the 12 dishes (frontends, beamformers, etc). Technical commissioning in full swing Ø Final correlator installed in HF-cabin (at Westerbork) Ø Finishing correlator firmware Ø Currently able to correlate 9 dishes Ø Science commissioning progressing Ø Online calibration interval > 1 hour system stable

15 PAF Development - ASTRON APERTIF - Future Work APERTIF Busy week (27 Sep 6 Oct) Ø Goal: have a working system, that can be controlled by scripts that astronomers (and observers) can execute. Ø Milestone: Full Field of View End of the year Ø Continue technical commissioning (end of 2016) Ø Continue science commissioning ( ) ØSoftware elements in place to be able to start surveys (end 2016) Ø Longer tests online calibration (late 2016)

16 PAF Development - CSIRO Mk. I - Boolardy Engineering Test Array Ø 6 antennas - Mk. I Chequerboard PAFs Ø Very useful commissioning practice platform Ø Decommissioned February 2016 MK. II - ASKAP Design Enhancement Ø 12 antennas currently operational Ø Mid scale production pathfinder Ø Commissioning lessons continue

17 PAF Development - CSIRO Mk. III - Element and LNA Design Element based on a conical solid of revolution Edge elements designed to reduce the effect of the edge discontinuity Feed line loss minimised Balanced LNA Differential impedance 180Ω Commercial HEMT LNA TriQuint TQP3M939 & TQP3M x 4 array constructed as proof-ofconcept T sys Reduction of T LNA = 5K 7K over ASKAP Mk II LNA achieved

18 PAF Development CSIRO and MPIfR Parkes granted pathfinder status as of April MPIfR Bonn PAF on Parkes Ø Undergoing characterisation testing Ø To Effelsberg in October/November Cryogenic PAF being considered for Parkes Rocket element - Parkes and SKA Ø Prototype measured Photo credits: J Sarkissian Uniform weights aperture array mode measurement

19 PAF2016 Workshop Cagliari

20 Performance Room Temperature PAFs Measurements calibrated using ASKAP (Mk. II) reference array. Gaps in the measurements are caused by RFI.

21 PAF AIP - Challenges System cost Signal processing Improving manufacturability Improving noise performance Competitive with traditional feed horn based systems Sky de-rotation Mechanical, electronic, software Beamforming algorithm development Calibration

22 AIP Next Steps Establish the framework for the PAF AIP to present to the SKA board Engage a PAF AIP Consortium Board Engage a PAF Program Scientist Engage a PAF Program System Engineer Develop a set of requirements. Develop metrics to assess PAFs against requirements. Investigate a common test facility

23 AIP Further Considerations Access to an SKA Engineering Array Ø 3 4 Antennas (minimum) Ø Support facilities Ø Integration centres Relationships with consortia Dish, SaDT, CSP, TM Status during ODP/construction phase Roll-out and AIV
