UV Simulator

The above images are for a 10hour synthesis of all 30antennas of the GMRT with +19, +30, -30 & -45 degrees declination respectively. One may refer to this GMRT Page for comparison.

The programme made to generate the uv patterns is 100% complete. I simulated the GMRT patterns and they have come as they have displayed on their website. I will now simulate the patterns for a Sierpinski Gasket configuration.

Simulations to obtain best u-v coverage possible with 4 antennae

Onkar has some preliminary results from his u-v plane coverage simulations. Here are mouth-watering diagrams first.

Onkar generates the positions of antennas using some logic. This is independent of other details. His top image (u-v coverage of 6 antennas) was made using a logarithmic spiral distribution of 4 antennae. The second image was created when 4 antennae were used in a Y-shaped array, like the VLA.

His (possibly) best result is kept for the last, when is that, Onkar?
