Abstract
Higher frequency Aperture Array technology, up to 1.5GHz, is being prepared for large scale deployment in radio astronomy. Novel approaches in order to increase performance and lower the production costs are a key element of the success as well as scientific demonstration. This paper describes the current status, technology innovations and planned demonstrators.
