Abstract
The Optical Very Large Array (OVLA) and its precursor Micromegas, will
be composed of 27 telescopes. Snap-shot images will be formed directly
at the combined focus. This will require a densified exit pupil and
phased beams for all the wavelengths used. I describe 3 novel algorithms
which can, in principle phase such interferometer; they all involve a
hierarchy of aperture triplets but use different phasing criteria. I
compare here their performance through numerical simulations and in
presence of photon noise.
