2 Departures: Travel APEX VLBI System Upgrade July 2016: 32 Gbps + 16 Gbps, 1x DBBC3 + 2x R2DBE, 4x Mark 6 Figure: Red: to be installed July 2016.
3 Equipment Preparations for APEX: WP 3.1 Time & Frequency: Restart maser Roy July 2016 Environmental chamber maintenance Roy/Wagner Order Agilent E8241A or equivalent PSG for 1 st LO Roy Feb 2016 WP 3.3 Receiver: Quarter-wave plate 340 GHz for FLASH/SHeFI/Pico/PdB. WP 3.4 Downconversion: Repair downconverter remote control Max-Moerbeck Feb Plan downconversion for dual-pol Rx Roy/Kasemann Dec Build IF conditioning for dual pol Rx Roy/Max-Moerbeck Feb 2016 WP 3.5 Sampling: Zero-baseline test of R2DBE + DBBC3 in Bonn Roy/Sven/Gino Feb 2016 Noise source 4 GHz BW for DBBC3 test Roy/Max-Moerbeck WP 3.6 Recording: Order He6 disks and modules, assemble Maertens Order more transceivers Roy Test jive5ab WP 3.7 Cabling: Order/install IF cables for B-cabin to DBBC3 Roy Install cabling for maser 10 MHz to B cabin WP 10 Publication: Project Book update Roy
4 WP 3.1 Time and Frequency Issues: Maser + HVAC got powered off at main switchboard. Environmental chamber HVAC is sometimes commanded with short (1 s) cooling bursts. UPS for maser and chamber is defective. 1 st LO in new dual-pol Rx (VDI) is unknown / have backup in case of high phase noise Not enough maser 10 MHz out for B-Cabin / need 10 MHz patch panel in instrument container. Work: Restart maser Revise configuration of chamber regulator to avoid short AC cycles. Load revised configuration in chamber regulator / test Replace water level sensor Defective UPS: ship to manufacturer Find/order Agilent E8241A or equivalent PSG for 1 st LO Cantzler / Roy Roy / KlimaSystems Roy Roy Design/manufacture patch panel Order connectors for cutting 10 MHz ref cables in instrument container UPS Replacement Plan: Remove failed Effekta MKD-1000: from maser HVAC / return to Bonn/Effekta Move Effekta MKD-700 from Mark 5C recorders to replace UPS in HVAC. Check Effekta MKD-700 batteries in maser chamber / if overcharged return to Bonn/Effekta. WP 3.4 Downconversion Issues: Bandwidth is being increased at EHT to 32 Gpbs (2x 4 GHz) APEX dual-pol receiver requires dual-channel downconverter. Work: Plan APEX downconverter modifications Roy & Kasemann, Nov 2014 Order components Maertens, Nov 2014 Repair & upgrade downconverter, add IF conditioner for B cabin Roy, Jan 2015 Review of EHT Bandwidth Expansion: 2016 March: 2 pol x 4 GHz/pol (32 Gbps) APEX Downconverter Modification Plan: A-Cabin: Amplify 4-8 GHz IF and send to instrument container. Dual channel for future dual pol B-Cabin: IF Conditioning amplify/filter 2x 4-8 GHz initially, additional 2x 8-12 GHz later, send to Instrument container.
5 WP 3.5 Sampling Issues: Upgrade DBBC2 to DBBC3 in Bonn ZBT in Bonn, install at APEX. Need noise source with 4-8 GHz BW for testing DBBC3 Work: Update VLBI system block diagram for DBBC3 + R2DBE parallel operation, Test in lab Noise Source: Design/build noise source Band: 0 to 4 GHz and 4-8 GHz Output level: -7 dbm over 2 GHz for R2DBE or -30 dbm over 4-8 GHz Noise from 50 ohm pad: kt = -174 dbm / Hz = -81 dbm over 2 GHz Need 74 db gain. Amplifier: Mini-Circuits ZX E+, gain = 18.2 db at 2 GHz, 14.9 db at 4 GHz, 12 V 0.77 W, 53 USD Mini-Circuits ZX60-V63+, gain = 20.3 db at 2 GHz, 18.0 db at 4 GHz, 5 V 0.35 W, 53 USD Need 5 devices. Lab device uses 8 devices gives -17 dbm over 2 GHz -> need 1 more amp = 9 amps., plus one to offset splitters Filter: VLF Splitter for tone addition: Lab device uses ZFRSC-42-S+ but 6 db loss. Figure: R2DBE, DBBC3 IF structure
6 WP 3.6 Recording Issues: dplane buggy Need 6 modules for one recorder 32 Gbps, other 16 Gbps Bandwidth increase needs more transceivers Work: Test jive5ab Purchase/assemble He6 modules if needed Room over-temperature protection: auto-power shutdown for recorders? Order transceivers WP 3.7 Cabling Issues: Need 10 MHz B cabin Need IF cables B-cabin Need lockable BNC for 10 MHz ref B-cabin Need additional fibre (24 cores) instrument container to recorder room Need fibre patch cables for more DBBC3 outputs
