Implementación de un prototipo de radiotelescopio en la banda de 12 GHZ con interfaz en LABVIEW

Abstract

In this degree project, a prototype radio telescope has been designed and implemented in the 12 GHz band to be used in the telecommunications laboratory of the Salesian Polytechnic University in Guayaquil, with the aim of encouraging students and teachers to set up projects or research in the field of radio astronomy, where their basic knowledge is that which is studied during their careers in subjects such as electronics, automation, telecommunications, among others. For its development a research of the mechanical and electronic design has been carried out based on similar projects that allowed to guarantee the correct functioning of this, considering a preventive maintenance as the lubrication of the gears and review of its wiring.
