Radio frequency interference (RFI) is a serious and growing problem in radio astronomy. Effects can range from reducing the signal to noise of the observation to creating false sources or corrupting the visibilities of an array to the extent an image cannot be created.
Various methods exist for mitigating the effects of RFI. In this talk I will discuss and demonstrate two methods of correcting RFI corrupted data: reference antenna and spatial filtering, and two methods for identifying and excising corrupted data samples using automated RFI blanking methods: eigenvalue decomposition and spectral kurtosis.
