Abstract

We describe the nature of the interference challenges facing radio astronomy in the next decade. These challenges will not be solved by regulation only, negotiation and mitigation will become vital. There is no silver bullet for mitigating against interference. A successful mitigation approach is most likely to be a hierarchical or progressive approach throughout the telescope and signal conditioning and processing systems. We summarise some of the approaches, including adaptive systems.
