The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA), under construction in Western Australia, is a low-frequency radio imaging array, designed to operate in the 80-300MHz frequency range. It will consist of 512 antenna "tiles". Each tile is composed of 16 dual-polarization broadband dipoles, phased together to yield a 1000 square degree field of view. The array is designed for excellent imaging properties and will be scientifically versatile.
A 32-tile testbed array, incorporating all key hardware elements of the full system, is operating. A variety of observations have been successfully conducted. The results of these observations will be described, and projections for the performance and scientific capabilities of the full array will be made.
