VLBI2010
• IVS WG3: started discussion on the
next generation VLBI (2005~).
• VLBI2010 Committee: considered the
concrete system for VLBI2010. – Final report (2009) “Design Aspects of the VLBI2010
System”
• System for VLBI2010 contains;
① 12-m diameter dish & 12˚/s fast moving
② 2~14GHz broad-band receivers
③ High speed sampler, Digital Backend

RFI at GGOS station
• Intra-site RFI transmitted by DORIS beacon and
SLR radar for aircraft avoidance
– DORIS: 401.25 MHz, 2.036 GHz
– SLR radar: 9.4 GHz ?
– VLBI receives 2-14 GHz
• Physical barriers (e.g., buildings, topography,
special built structures), notch filters, interlocking
of the SLR/VLBI scheduling, …
• Appreciated if SLR people could develop and
use a non-radar based system for aircraft
avoidance. 15/16

Summary
• IVS is enthusiastic about VGOS.
– Australia, Germany, Spain, Russia, …
• Ishioka VGOS telescope in Japan
– under construction
– complete by March 2014
• More co-located sites of multi-technique are
necessary for GGOS.
• However, intra-site RFI in the broad-band VLBI
telescope should be considered.
