The SKA Radio Telescope: A Global Project For A Better Understanding Of The Universe
8/23/2016
To answer the universe’s most profound questions, 11 countries have joined together in an effort to create the Square Kilometer Array (SKA) radio telescope project. The SKA will be a large collection of antennas that will be spread over large distances to work together as an interferometric array. When completed, the SKA will be 10,000 times faster and 50 times more sensitive than any existing radio telescope. This article explains how FEKO simulation is used to study the antenna interference characteristics in detail and in such a short amount of time.
