Abstract

The LOw-Frequency ARray (LOFAR) telescope is a radio interferometer, arranged in 51 stations across Europe. The LOFAR maximum baseline in the N – S direction is 1294 km (between the Onsala – Nancay stations) and in the E – W is 1887 km (between the Baldy – Birr stations). The telescope operates in the frequency range 10 to 240 MHz. Each station consists of two antenna fields: (i) LBA (Low Band Antennas) antennas, operating in frequency range of 10–90 MHz and (ii) HBA (High Band Antennas) antennas operating in frequency range of 110–250 MHz. Details about construction and operating the LOFAR telescope can be found in [2].
