摘要
Our group, the Center for Astronomy Signal Processing and Electronics Research (CASPER), seeks to speed the development of radio astronomy signal processing instrumentation by designing and demonstrating a scalable, upgradeable, FPGA-based computing platform and software design methodology that targets a range of real-time radio telescope signal processing applications. This project relies on a small number of modular, connectible hardware components and open-source signal processing libraries which can be reused and scaled as hardware capabilities expand. We have demonstrated the use of 10 Gb Ethernet packetization and switches to manage high-bandwidth inter-board communication. Using these tools, we have built spectrometers, correlators, beamformers, VLBI data recorders, and many other applications. Future directions for the development include a fully packetized scalable correlator, additional library and toolflow development, and a next generation of modular FPGA-based hardware.
