“…As contemporary science goals increasingly require observing sources outside the traditional protected spectrum bands, a critical need is developing to deal will ubiquitous man-made interfering signals such as satellite downlink transmissions [17], [18], radar systems [19], [20], air navigation aids [21], wireless communications [22], and digital television broadcasts. A variety of mitigation methods have been studied by us and others for single dish observation, including adaptive filtering using a reference antenna [18], [23]- [25], time blanking [19], [20], and parametric signal estimation and subtraction [17]. Also, array spatial filtering has been studied by us and others for synthesis imaging with large dish arrays and beamformed aperture arrays [23], [26]- [30].…”
