LOW-CSP Helm Chart

The deployment of LOW-CSP is done using the ska-low-csp Helm chart. This chart integrates the components of the LOW-CSP LMC, LOW-CBF, PST and PSS sub-systems. These components are included as sub-charts of the ska-low-csp chart.

Note

The PST and PSS sub-systems are currently not yet included in LOW-CSP.

Sub-system Components

The LOW-CSP Helm chart contains the following sub-system components:

Sub-system

Component

Description

LOW-CSP LMC

LOW-CSP LMC

This component contains the LowCspController and LowCspSubarray TANGO devices, which are used for Monitoring & Control of the LOW-CSP system. Documentation: SKA Low CSP.LMC.

LOW-CBF

LOW-CBF Monitoring & Control

This component contains the LowCbfController, LowCbfSubarray and LowCbfAllocator TANGO devices, which are used for Monitoring & Control of the LOW-CBF sub-system. Documentation: Low.CBF Tango Devices for Monitoring and Control.

LOW-CBF

LOW-CBF Processor

This component contains the LowCbfProcessor TANGO device, which controls the FPGAs used by LOW-CBF to perform their correlation and beamforming functionality. Documentation: ska-low-cbf-proc.

LOW-CBF

LOW-CBF Connector

This component contains the LowCbfConnector TANGO device, which controls the P4 switches used to route science data from SPS through the LOW-CSP into SDP. Documentation: ska-low-cbf-conn.

SKA-PST

SKA-PST

This component contains the SkaPst tied-array beam formed in one of the SKA1 beamformers producing data products for use in one of the SKA1 Science Data Processors. Documentation: SKA-PST.
