Description
The LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) is currently undergoing a major upgrade designed to substantially enhance its scientific capabilities, particularly at the lowest accessible frequencies. This comprehensive effort encompasses nearly the entire signal chain, from the receivers in the field to the central processing facilities. The presentation will provide an overview of the upgraded signal path, outlining the key improvements and the current status of the deployment. Plans for the near future will also be discussed, including the anticipated performance gains and the new opportunities for low-frequency radio astronomy that the upgraded LOFAR will enable.
