  • Abstract
    Novel EMC methods are required for the sensitivity levels that the MeerKAT radio telescope in the Karoo region of South Africa will attain. This paper describes the contributions our research group has made to the project with regard to time domain radio frequency interference measurements and calibration, as well as characterization using scale models and computational modeling.
