The GGAO Geodetic VLBI System and its Integration within the GGOS Station
Abstract
Integration of VLBI, DORIS, SLR, and GPS space geodetic techniques is underway at the Goddard Geophysical and Astronomical Observatory (GGAO) in support of GGOS. In October 2010, a 12-meter-diameter antenna at GGAO was installed at the site, and broadband sensitivity measurements of this VLBI2010 system have since been collected. Measurements and studies of RFI compatibility with the collocated DORIS and SLR systems have continued with the objective of finding a solution that accommodates all techniques. The past year has also brought significant breakthroughs in the area of high data rate recorders, and we will report on a new 16 Gbps VLBI recorder.
