A particular effort > will be made to foster exchanges and collaborations between attendees. > RFI 2016 will be held in October 17-20 2016 in Socorro, NM, USA, a few steps > away from the Operation Center of the famous NRAO Very Large Array. > > Prospective authors are invited to submit a full-length 4 page IEEE standard > paper before June 20, 2016 in the following topics: > · Defining and quantifying RFI > · Spectrum management and frequency allocations > · Radio Quiet Zones, electromagnetic interference > · SETI : separating terrestrial and extra-terrestrial transmissions > · RFI detection and prediction > · Calibration, direction-of-arrival estimation > · RFI in remote sensing from space > · Mono and multi antenna signal processing > · Progresses in flagging and excision techniques > · Signal subtraction approaches > · Time/frequency/spatial filtering > · Pre- and post-correlation techniques > · Towards a real-time implementation of identification and mitigation > · Future sources of RFI > > Attendees are invited to register before September 15, 2016. Travel grants > will be made available for students, as well as a registration fee discount. > > Further information can be found at http://go.nrao.edu/rfi2016 > <http://go.nrao.edu/rfi2016> or by contacting our organizing committee at > rfi2...@nrao.edu <mailto:rfi2...@nrao.edu> > > We look forward to seeing you in Socorro. > > Kind regards, > Greg Hellbourg
