AAVP Workshop December 2010 TITLEAAVP Workshop December 2010 Aeff/Tsys evaluation for AAlo sensors G. Cortes Medellin, “Antenna Noise Temperature Calculations,” SKA Technical Memo Series n° 95 White paper on the antenna sub-systems for the SKA project: P.D. Patel, “Antenna Concepts Consideration for SKA”, part of the SKA memo 91, “An SKA Engineering Overview” by P. Hall Compare different antennas?

AAVP Workshop December 2010 TITLEAAVP Workshop December 2010 Aeff/Tsys evaluation for AAlo sensors General formulation: where P n (v;  ) represents the antenna radiation pattern and T b (v;  ’  ’), the brightness temperature distribution (here T b (v;  ’))       Direction in the azimuth plane Zenith Horizon Antenna Temperature P n computation is demanded to an external EM Antenna CAD (GRASP, CST,…) whereas T b is evaluated by the Matlab code itself

AAVP Workshop December 2010 TITLEAAVP Workshop December 2010 Aeff/Tsys evaluation for AAlo sensors Two different coordinate reference systems: P n is defined respect to the one related to the antenna itself (z axes = main beam or pointing direction) whereas T b is defined respect to the Earth (z’ = local zenith) To compute the integral we need only one coordinate system, so we need the conversion from one to another: Coordinate reference systems Ground Zenith Circumference at fixed  correspond to several values of 

AAVP Workshop December 2010 TITLEAAVP Workshop December 2010 Aeff/Tsys evaluation for AAlo sensors The brightness temperature can be split in 2 main contributions: from sky (0° <  ’ < 90°) and from ground (90° <  ’ < 180°) Moreover the contribution from the ground (emission and scattering), is a polarization dependent process: Ground contribution

AAVP Workshop December 2010 TITLEAAVP Workshop December 2010 Aeff/Tsys evaluation for AAlo sensors The Tb model is the one proposed by [Cortes], which includes the effects of the absorption coefficients of water vapour and oxygen, the CMB and the emission from the galaxy T go and  are function of the observed sky region [Cortes] suggests reasonable values as: T go  e  Zenithal opacity Atmosphere temperature Effect of Earth curvature Brightness Temperature
