Development and introduction into regular operation of the system for
estimating the parameters of radio sources and monitoring of the
parameters of antenna and receiving systems at the RATAN-600 radio telescope
The authors developed and put into operation the automated system of
estimation the parameters of radio sources observed in the continuum
radiometers of RATAN-600 (the total number of radiometers is 30). At
the same time, the system is used for monitoring changes of the
effective area of the antenna and the main lobe width of the beam
pattern, as well as for monitoring the quality of receiving system
operation. Development of this automated system was caused by the
necessity to process a large volume of observed data - of the order
of 40 thousand files in 30 days in the regular mode of radio telescope
operation. The main advantage of the system is its speed and the
possibility to control the performance at any stage.
