Sidney Kenderdine coauthored the description of the Cambridge One-Mile radio telescope's operation. The instrument uses aperture synthesis, combining measurements from separated antennas to imitate an aperture much larger than an individual receiving element.[ref]

Changing projected baselines supplies different spatial information about the radio sky. Combining it requires controlled receiver phases and a reconstruction method, connecting electronic measurement with angular resolution rather than relying only on the size of one dish.
