Progress report on the Block 1 VLBI correlator implementation
Abstract
The Block 1 VLBI Processor Subsystem (VPS) of the Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) System for the determination of station clock-sync parameters, UT1 and polar motion, and station platform parameters and for use in spacecraft tracking is discussed. The Block 1 VPS performs three basic functions: it receives the 500 kbit/sec video data over the GCF wideband data lines from each of the three DSN 64 m antennas; it cross correlates data; and it performs several postcorrelation data reduction operations on the correlated data including calibration, editing, and parameter estimation.
