e-VLBI status table
Advertised frequencies and array configurations
The expected aggregate bitrate is 1024 Mbps with the following limitations. Shanghai and Arecibo are limited to 512 Mbps, Arecibo is further limited to 256 Mbps outside UT range 4-10. Medicina and Yebes are limited to 896 Mbps; in the 1024 Mbps mode the highest subbands are dropped. The effective data rate to the MERLIN telescopes (except for Jb1/Jb2) is 128 Mbps due to analog bandwidth restrictions. Availability of MERLIN outstations and Jb2 will be limited in 2009/2010 due to the e-MERLIN upgrade.
Coming e-VLBI runs
The observing frequency in a session is decided based on proposal pressure
Arecibo is most useful for science observations in between 4:00-10:00 UTC (best connectivity)
