摘要
Context. The large aperture arrays for the currently under construction SKA Observatory (SKAO) will allow for observations of the universe in the radio spectrum at unprecedented resolution and sensitivity. However, these telescopes will produce data on the scale of exabytes, introducing a slew of hardware and software design challenges. Aims. This paper proposes a multi-step image reconstruction framework that allows for partitioning of visibility data by baseline length. This enables more flexible data distribution and parallelization, aiding in processing radio-astronomical observations within given constraints. Additionally, as each step of the framework only relies on a subset of the total visibilities, one can perform reconstruction progressively, with the initial step performed on the SKAO Science Data Processors and the second on local clusters. Methods. The multi-step reconstruction is separated into two steps. First a low-resolution image is reconstructed with only short-baseline visibilities, and then using this image together with the long-baseline visibilities, the full-resolution image is reconstructed. The proposed method only operates in the minor cycle, and it can be easily integrated into existing imaging pipelines. Results. We show that our proposed method allows for partitioning of visibilities by baseline without introducing significant additional drawbacks, reconstructing images of similar quality within similar numbers of major cycles compared to a single-step all-baselines approach that uses the same reconstruction method as well as compared to multi-scale CLEAN.
