Answer: a network of several radio telescopes wired together

Step-by-step explanation:

A radio interferometer combines signals of several radio telescopes which are used in astronomical observations simultaneously to simulate a discretely-sampled single telescope of very large aperture

Interferometer, an instrument that uses the interference patterns formed by waves to measure certain characteristics of the waves themselves or of materials that reflect, refract, or transmit the waves. Interferometers can also be used to make precise measurements of distance.
