摘 要:The Phased Array Feed(PAF)is considered as one of the next generation receivers for radio telescopes,which can significantly enlarge the instantaneous Field-of-View of large aperture single dish radio telescopes and enable more flexible observing *** efforts on PAF development for radio telescopes have been made for more than two decades and have become more and more *** report the development of an ambient-temperature 19 element L-band PAF system and the experimental results including its far field beam pattern and system temperature measurement,which achieve the *** the aperture array beam-forming method,we demonstrate a wide-field Galactic HI observations in the radio camera *** results indicate that this system might be applicable for strong Galactic transient *** system could be directly equipped to large telescopes like the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST)and FAST array in the future.
