Talk:MERLIN

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Some questions:

  • Are the microwave links analog or digital?
  • Will the optical fibre links be analog or digital?
  • Is the correlator analog, or digital or a hybrid of both?

Will the new correlator be all-digital, or a hybrid? - The Anome 13:57, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)

Some answers:

  • The microwave links are currently analog. They used to be digital but they were put back to analog to increase the bandwidth.
  • The optical fibre links are digital
  • The current correlator is a hybrid (as it takes in analog). The e-MERLIN correlator will be digital.
