Low frequency bands in a traditional VLBI networks suffer not only from RFI but also from the low efficiency of the radio telescopes. Dedicated arrays have to be used which have to maintain all the constraints of a VLBI station, e.g., phase stability. With this aim a project with an alternative application of the DBBC3 was set up and is presented, where a set of antennas operating at frequencies lower than 1 GHz are combined into an array. The individual antennas cover the broadband frequency range from 10 MHz to 1000 MHz.

Abstract

Low frequency bands in a traditional VLBI networks suffer not only from RFI but also from the low efficiency of the radio telescopes. Dedicated arrays have to be used which have to maintain all the constraints of a VLBI station, e.g., phase stability. With this aim a project with an alternative application of the DBBC3 was set up and is presented, where a set of antennas operating at frequencies lower than 1 GHz are combined into an array. The individual antennas cover the broadband frequency range from 10 MHz to 1000 MHz.
