Abstract

The article describes ultra-wideband receiving system operating for the frequency range of 3 to 16 GHz wich developed by the IAA RAS and supposed to be used for RT-13 radio telescope in “Svetloe” observatory. The system has channels to receive two orthogonal linear polarizationed components of incoming signals. The input frequency range of receiving system is justified. The special conditions of laboratory tests are described and the results of designed system tests are given. During the radiometry measurements the system noise temperature was measured by the Y-factor method. The interferometric tests included zero-base interferometry with the tri-band receiving system. The estimation of expected RT–13 parameters is presented.
