We are developing antenna-coupled transition edge sensor (TES) bolometer arrays for use in the measurement of the cosmic microwave background polarization. We have designed and built a prototype antenna-coupled bolometer pixel. This design uses a double slot dipole antenna on a silicon hemispherical

We have demonstrated frequency-domain readout multiplexing of eight channels for superconducting transition-edge sensor bolometer arrays. The multiplexed readout noise is 6.5 pA/OHz, well below the bolometer dark noise of 15-20 pA/OHz. We measure an upper limit on crosstalk of 0.004 between channels

The coupling matrix is a standard way to represent the mutual-coupling effect between elements in an antenna array. In this paper, two commonly used approaches to determine the coupling matrix are examined, and their limitations are discussed. The coupling matrix obtained from the minimum mean-squar
