The radio frequency environment in which the SKA Phase 1 telescopes should operate is characterised at locations within the proposed spiral arm layout. The total integrated power level of the radio frequency interference at the various locations is determined.
Radio telescope sites, especially the two for the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) in South Africa and Western Australia, need to be radio quiet. Both man-made intentional transmissions (which we call radio frequency interference or RFI) and unintentional by-products, generated by electric and electronic equipment (referred to as electromagnetic interference or EMI), must be minimized in power and spectral...
