Descripción
We analyzed the impact of different network configurations with VGOS antennas. Up to 2025, the inhomogeneous distribution of Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) sites with VGOS technology shows more VGOS antennas in the Northern than in the Southern hemisphere. We simulated additional VGOS sites in South America and studied their impact on Earth Orientation Parameters (EOP), as well as station and source coordinates. The selection of fictitious sites was made on the presence of existent and needed infrastructure. Different fictitious network configurations were compared by their performance with respect to the real situation. It was concluded that a more uniform distribution with additional sites in South America would significantly improve the EOP and source coordinates, but not on station coordinates.
