Abstract

In the context of the Galactic Emission Mapping, a new receiver at 5GHz was developed to characterize the galactic foreground to the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation. This is a 5GHz super heterodyne polarimeter with double down conversion, with a high gain IF chain using the latest RF technology working at 600MHz central frequency that feeds a four channel digital correlator. This paper describes the receiver and its current status. Design options and constraints are presented with some simulations and experimental results of a circuit prototype.
