  2. CETC54 CETC54- ProCCfCETile • In Shijiazhuang • Covering the area of 2 sq.km. • Founded in 1952 • Over 5000 employees (543 senior engineers, 1000 engineers) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  3. 30 mins 2 hours 20 mins 15 mins CETC54- Layout Manufacturing Workshop

  4. CETC54- Laboratory JLRAT Joint Laboratory for Radio Astronomy Technology NAOC and CETC54

  5. What do CETC54 want to do? • Win large non-military export contracts • Last year $100M • Little profit from ASKAP • Manufacture and install all of the SKA dishes • Manufacture in China, re-assemble on site • Use their own fabrication technology • Session 12 tomorrow • Do most, if not all, of the mechanical design • Also em design • Manufacture feeds and receivers

  6. What would CETC54 be prepared to do? Manufacture a mount to TDP design Manufacture a complete antenna (DVAC) to the TDP optics design, but using panels. Virtually anything, if they thought it would lead to getting the big contract?

  7. CETC54: strengths • Enormous resources • Engineers • Skilled manpower • Sub-contractors • Excellent facilities • Manufacturing • Test ranges • Anechoic chamber etc. • Low labor cost • Fast response • Extensive satcom experience • Willing to embrace and develop new designs (ASKAP)

  8. CETC54: weaknesses • Minimal radio astronomy experience • But JLRAT should help • High noise designs • Used to working to satcom specs • Attached to established in-house technologies and design solutions? • But may be persuaded to adopt new solutions • Do it their way or not at all? • Resistant to suggestions about manufacture on site

  9. What should we ask CETC54 to do? • Build DVAC in parallel with DVA-1 to the same specification, but using panels. • Interesting test of alternative manufacturing technique • Integrate and test where? • Funded by NAOC and CETC54? • Manufacture the mount for DVA-1? • Only if funds are so short that this is the only way to build DVA-1.

  10. Welcome to NWIEE We are The North West China Research Institute of Electronic Equipment

  11. NWIEE/CETC39 Split from CETC54 in 1970s Similar capabilities and resources They have made hundreds of 9, 11 and 13 metre antennas. Also keen to win ‘The SKA Contract’

  12. End
