Abstract :
Changing observing strategies and the increased sensitivity of radio astronomy observatories have made radio frequency interference an important operational factor. All interference entering the data will result in data loss and observing inefficiency. This paper presents the mitigation methods to be implemented in observational systems to combat interference and to reduce its impact.
