| Abstract: | 21 cm tomography has the potential to become the most powerful cosmological probe yet. The Omniscope is a novel radio telescope being built to take advantage of this signal. This thesis describes my work on integrating, testing, and characterizing all modules of the Omniscope and identifying opportunities for further improving their sensitivity. |
