Development of a Dynamically Re-Configurable Radio-Frequency Interference Detection System for L-Band Microwave Radiometers.

Real-Time RFI Detection and Flagging (RT-RDF) for microwave radiometers is a versatile new FPGA algorithm designed to detect and flag Radio-Frequency Interference (RFI) in microwave radiometers. This block utilizes computationally-efficient techniques to identify and analyze RF signals, allowing the system to take appropriate measures to mitigate interference and maintain reliable performance. With L-Band microwave radiometry as the main application, this RFI detection algorithm focuses on the Kurtogram and Spectrogram to detect non-Gaussian behavior.
