High data rate recorder development at MIT Haystack Observatory
Abstract
Current operational capabilities of tape recording for Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) at the Haystack Observatory allow 0.7 terabytes (12 hours at 128 Mb/s) of data to be stored in a 128 cu. inch volume. On-going efforts are aimed at full time 1 Gb/s operation with two 36-channel headstacks. Applications for linear digital tape recording, with suitable development of thin-film head arrays, suggest a volume density exceeding 1 TB/cu. inch to be achievable in the future.
