Description
Modern radio telescopes are envisioned to consist of hundreds to the thousands of antennas in order to meet various science requirements and in-turn raise the computational needs. Here we discuss a novel radio imaging concept called EPIC, that is particularly efficient for compact large-N radio arrays. EPIC has been successfully deployed on a GPU and demonstrated real-time imaging at the Long Wavelength Array (LWA) in New Mexico, USA. In this talk, I will discuss the EPIC all-sky imager, current developments and its potential application for upcoming radio telescopes including ARGOS.
