Several other instrumental improvements that lead to new scientific
capabilities are also being considered. They include: ultra-wide
(
35%) bandwidth at the highest frequencies, a robust total
power system to support mosaicing, simultaneous multi-band performance
(2.4 and 8.4 GHz or 4.9 and 15 GHz), and cross-linking the VLA and
VLBA. These are discussed in Chapter 5.
