The system is a new back-end processor for the λ 8-cm radioheliograph. By the introduction of the RSIP, the λ 8-cm radioheliograph is converted from the swept-lobe to the multicorrelator type. The RSIP can synthesize one-dimensional and two-dimensional images of the radio sun at a rate of 0.1 s/image and display them in real time. Right and left circular polarizations are obtained by time sharing. The real time phase calibration is made by using redundant antenna combinations. In order to obtain this performance, all correlations necessary for image synthesis and phase calibration are calculated simultaneously, and the Fourier transformation of the correlations and some arrangements to display the images are performed by hardware. The correlators used in the RSIP are of the one-bit type, which are suitable for solar observations because they have a wide dynamic range to the intensity variation.}, pages = {45--60}, title = {REAL TIME SOLAR IMAGE PROCESSOR (RSIP) FOR THE λ 8-cm RADIOHELIOGRAPH AT TOYOKAWA}, volume = {32}, year = {1985} }
