Abstract

As the Square Kilometre Array progresses toward the construction phase, the first prototypes of the low-frequency instrument were deployed in Australia. To support such a crucial phase, a measurement campaign took place in the Murchison Radio-astronomy Observatory area to validate the electromagnetic models of the arrays by characterizing the embedded element patterns and the array beams. This article shows the significant campaign results in a comprehensive and readable way. Such a synoptic visualization allows for a direct evaluation of the complete dataset.
