Signal correlation in an interferometer |
The output of a multiplier is the amplified power of the input signals from a pair of antennae. |
The power from each antenna, for a source of flux density S, is |
The voltage waveform from each antenna is |
Inserting these, we obtain for |
The quantity that really interests us here is the uncertainty of , . The derivation of this quantity was described by Ravi Subrahmanyan during the last workshop (notes are available online). |
