Abstract

With the rapid development of the technique for optics engineering, the telescope has developed rapidly with great performances (i.e., higher resolution), which exhibits great potential in cosmology detection. On this basis, this paper compares and demonstrates the basic principle as well as the state-of-art applications and observations of two typical telescopes, i.e., the Arecibo and Fast. According to the analysis, the later constructed FAST largely expands the searching parameters which offer a path for higher signal-noise ratio. However, it should be noted that ground-based telescopes do have some shortcomings and defects. The revision suggestions are also proposed in order to better upgrade the performances of the telescopes. These results shed light on guiding further exploration of future telescope construction.
