I²IT Second Year (E&TC) Engineering students visited GMRT, nd Khodad as part of their Industrial Visit on 2 July 2019. GMRT is an array of thirty fully steerable parabolic radio telescopes of 45 meter diameter, observing at meter wavelengths. It is operated by the National Centre for Radio Astrophysics. They studied construction of 30 large dishes with antenna configuration in a compact central array with longest interferometric baseline of about 25 km. The students also got an insight into the different modes of transmission and reception of signal and their processing at the base station.
