Data Multiplexing in Radio Interferometric Calibration
New and upcoming radio interferometers will produce unprecedented amounts of data that demand extremely powerful computers for processing. This is a limiting factor due to the large computational power and energy costs involved. Such limitations restrict several key data processing steps in radio interferometry. One such step is calibration where systematic errors in the data are determined and...
متن کاملDistributed Radio Interferometric Calibration
Increasing data volumes delivered by a new generation of radio interferometers require computationally efficient and robust calibration algorithms. In this paper, we propose distributed calibration as a way of improving both computational cost as well as robustness in calibration. We exploit the data parallelism across frequency that is inherent in radio astronomical observations that are recor...
متن کاملDistributed Model Construction in Radio Interferometric Calibration
Calibration of a typical radio interferometric array yields thousands of parameters as solutions. These solutions contain valuable information about the systematic errors in the data (ionosphere and beam shape). This information could be reused in calibration to improve the accuracy and also can be fed into imaging to improve the fidelity. We propose a distributed optimization strategy to const...
متن کاملRadio Interferometric Calibration Using The SAGE Algorithm
Radio Interferometry is an essential method for astronomical observations. Self-calibration techniques have increased the quality of the radio astronomical observations (and hence the science) by orders of magnitude. Recently, there is a drive towards sensor arrays built using inexpensive hardware and distributed over a wide area acting as radio interferometers. Calibration of such arrays poses...
متن کاملOrdered-subsets Acceleration of Radio Interferometric Calibration: Os-sage Calibration Algorithm
The main objective of this work is to accelerate the MaximumLikelihood (ML) estimation procedure for radio interferometric direction dependent self-calibration. We introduce the OS-SAGE radio interferometric calibration method, as a combination of the Ordered-Subsets (OS) method with the Space Alternating Generalized Expectation maximization (SAGE) calibration technique. The OS method speeds up...
