ASKAP Data Products for Project AS115 (Survey and routine Monitoring of ASKAP's RFI environment and Trends (SMART)): catalogues

"Survey and routine Monitoring of ASKAP's RFI environment and Trends" (SMART) is an Observatory Project combining the automated ingest and analysis of RFI-affected data from routine ASKAP observations with a comprehensive RFI survey. The survey parameters are such that a complete epoch of the survey should take of order one week. This project makes use of five system tunings covering ASKAP's full frequency range, including portions of the bandwidth that are not typically used in survey science observing. Each tuning consists of observations taken over a 24-hour period in order to capture a snapshot of the RFI environment of ASKAP, with regular epochs planned to monitor changes and trends. SMART provides a unique opportunity to study the RFI environment between 700-1800 MHz at Inyarrimanha Ilgari Bundara, the CSIRO Murchison Radio-astronomy Observatory, and investigate the effects of RFI on ASKAP science. The project will involve understanding and updating the default flagging behaviour, inferring the suitability of RFI monitoring equipment by cross-correlating with visibilities, monitoring spectrum management compliance and informing the implementation of a suite of RFI mitigation techniques.

"ASKAP射频干扰（RFI）环境与趋势调查及常规监测"（SMART）是一项天文台项目，结合了对ASKAP常规观测中受射频干扰（RFI）影响的数据的自动摄取与分析，以及全面的RFI调查。调查参数设定为完成一个完整的调查周期约需一周时间。该项目采用五种系统调谐方式，覆盖ASKAP的全部频率范围，包括调查科学观测中通常不使用的部分带宽。每种调谐方式包含持续24小时的观测，以捕捉ASKAP射频干扰环境的快照，且计划通过定期观测周期监测其变化与趋势。SMART为研究英亚里曼哈·伊尔加里·邦达拉（CSIRO默奇森射电天文学观测站）700-1800 MHz频段的RFI环境，以及探究RFI对ASKAP科学研究的影响提供了独特机遇。该项目将涉及理解并更新默认标记行为、通过与可见度数据交叉关联推断RFI监测设备的适用性、监测频谱管理合规性，以及为一系列RFI缓解技术的实施提供信息支持。
