At the very highest energy, the flux is in the order of one particle per square kilometer per century (see Figure~\ref{fig:cr_flux}).

Observatories therefore have to span huge areas to gather decent statistics at these highest energies on a practical timescale.

In recent and upcoming experiments, such as \gls{Auger}, \gls{GRAND} or \gls{LOFAR}, the approach is typically to instrument an area with a sparse grid of detectors to detect the generated air shower.

Radio antennas are sensitive to changes in their surrounding electric fields.
|
||||
The polarisation of the electric field that a single antenna can record is dependent on the geometry of this antenna.
|
||||
Therefore, in experiments such as \gls{Auger} or \gls{GRAND}, multiple antennas (called channels) are incorporated into a single unit to obtain complementary polarisation recordings.

Therefore, in experiments such as \gls{Auger} or \gls{GRAND}, multiple antennas are incorporated into a single unit to obtain complementary polarisation recordings.

Additionally, the shape and size of antennas affect how well the antenna responds to certain frequency ranges, resulting in different designs meeting different criteria.
