Oblique projection beamforming for RFI mitigation in radio astronomy
Résumé
Radio astronomical observations are increasingly corrupted by radio frequency interference (RFI). Phased antenna array radio telescopes allow the recovering of spatial information of RFI and cosmic sources. Using this information, spatial signal processing techniques can limit the impact of the incoming interferences. In this article, we present an RFI mitigation technique, based on an oblique projector.
