文摘The radio telescope possesses high sensitivity and strong signal collection capabilities.While receiving celestial radiation signals,it also captures Radio Frequency Interferences(RFIs)introduced by human activities.RFI,as signals originating from sources other than the astronomical targets,significantly impacts the quality of astronomical data.This paper presents an RFI fast mitigation algorithm based on block Least Mean Square(LMS)algorithm.It enhances the traditional adaptive LMS filter by grouping L adjacent time-sampled points into one block and applying the same filter coefficients for filtering within each block.This transformation reduces multiplication calculations and enhances algorithm efficiency by leveraging the time-domain convolution theorem.The algorithm is tested using baseband data from the Parkes 64 m radio telescope's pulsar observations and simulated data.The results confirm the algorithm's effectiveness,as the pulsar profile after RFI mitigation closely matches the original pulsar profile.

文摘Active reflectors are often used to compensate the surface distortion caused by environmental factors that degrade the electromagnetic performance of large high-frequency reflector antennas.This is crucial for maintaining high gain operation in antennas.A distortion compensation method for the active reflector of a large dual-reflector antenna is proposed.A relationship is established between the surface deformation and the optical path difference for the primary reflector by geometric optics.Subsequently,employing finite element analysis,a polynomial fitting approach is used to describe the impact of adjusting points on the reflector surface based on the coordinates of each node.By standardizing the positions of various panels on the reflector,the fitting ns can be applied to the reflector panels of similar shapes.Then,based on the distribution characteristics of the primary reflector panels,the adjustment equation for the actuators is derived by the influence matrix method.It can be used to determine the adjustment amount of actuators to reduce the rms of the optical path difference.And,the least squares method is employed to resolve the matrix equation.The example of a 110 m aperture dual-reflector antenna is carried out by finite element analysis and the proposed method.The results show that the optical path difference is reduced significantly at various elevation cases,which indicates that the proposed method is effective.
